• Error 1067 by starting the VMware Virtual Center Server service after the upgrade to VCenter 4.1

  I've started with VCenter 4.0 update online success in 4.1u1

  but now I can not start the service with Error 1067 by starting the VMware Virtual Center Server service.

  I did the upgrade online in VCenter 4.1u1 with this iso file VMware-VIMSetup-all - 4.1.0 - 345042.iso and now the entire production is declining.

  I use SQL Server 2005 32-bit as the database.

  Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated please?

  And what exactly is a failure, is the DB on a different server or living on the vCenter Server?

• Update ESXi with a Virtual Center Server

  Hello

  I've updated a Standalone ESXi server using this guide

  http://www.vmadmin.co.UK/VMware/35-esxserver/262-esxvihostupdate

  It works the same way during the updating of the ESXi servers that are under a virtual Center Server?

  Thank you

  as part of the upgrade, using Crossover, a new vCenter agent is pushed. So, no, you don't break anything.

• Virtual Center Server not joined to a domain

  The environment is ESX 3.5 update 5 and Virtual Center Server 2.5 update 5.

  My question is; Virtual Center Server 2.5 can be installed on a W2003 server that is not joined to a domain?

  If the installation is possible what are the disadvantages and consequences?

  At a later date, the server can be attached to a field and Virtual Center updated accordingly? Thanks,-Jeff

  My question is; Virtual Center Server 2.5 can be installed on a W2003 server that is not joined to a domain?

  Yes.

  If the installation is possible what are the disadvantages and consequences?

  Depends on if you are using ad groups / users to connect to vcenter.  Otherwise, you must use local accounts for vCenter to provide user access to your vCenter cluster.  Adding the vCenter in the field would facilitate this in the future add / secure users.

  and Yes, you can join vCenter to the domain at any time, but it requires a reboot...

• Cannot perform any action on an ESX connected to Virtual Center Server

  Hi all

  I have an ESX Server which shows connected to my Virtual Center. I can access the virtual machines that are on the ESX of Virtual Center Server. However, none of the commands are available for the ESX Server when selected or by using a right-click on the mouse when the server is selected. All that shows is the summary of the report and the performance report all others are gray.

  I stop all VMs and you restart the ESX Server. Always displays the same State. Can someone provide suggestions about where to look to fix this problem.

  Thank you

  Robert

  I would check your permissions - you are not these permissions at the host level.

• Try to update to Virtual Center Server

  I've recently started a business and need to update their virtual Center Server, they run the 2.0.1 version.  When I try to download updates VMWares site won't let me. It says I need a license for Virtual Center 2.0.  I see that the company has a license for version 1.0, but I do not see a 2.0.  Could they have had version 1.0 patched to 2.0.1?  How are they able to run 2.0.1 version if they do not have a licesnce for her?  How can I move forward with this upgrade.   I am also able to download updates for ESX server, virtual center just not.

  I would call VMware and know who registered your VM products and if the interview is still active. Having the license file will help if they do not find you in the database. If you use Notepad, you can view the license file and it should show you what you licensed and have a name associated with it.

  Something like that

• Virtual Center server migration, tips

  We intend to move our virtual Center Server out of a virtual machine to its own physical computer. We are tired of weird weird to have VC server as a VM and have decided to give it its own box. Can someone point me in the right direction of how to move the Virtual Center of one machine to another server? I have trouble finding a guide.

  I did a couple of times.  Just build vCenter on the physical server as if you were from scratch (i.e. build a default vCenter facility).  Save your current SQL vCenter database and restore it on the new server.  Fact.

• Installation of SQL Server for the virtual Center Server

  Hi all

  We bought 16 x 2 for ESX server CPU licenses.  So, I will prepare a database of virtual server of the Management Center 16 guests. As SQL Server 2005 Express is installed during installation of Virtual Center Server but VMware is recommended for use only for 5 guests.

  So I would like to prepare a database of SQL for VC server, please help me how to make the database to the virtual Center Server. Are there special tables, configuration, permissions. I have no experience with databases then how should I go with it. Is there a guide for it. The ESX Server installation guide explains only create ODBC connections.

  Please help me with this I would be very obliged.

  I know that the procedure is restrited 2 steps (1 and 2) on page 68, but you need to install and configure SQL Server for your business standard (I guess asking the C: or D: and data/newspapers on E :). I'm not going to explain better how to install SQL Server on a server. For the SQL Server database:

  • Step 1: you create a database storing the files on the right disk (with at least 30 GB) with a default database size to the size defined by the "Calculator" (value of + 15% on the line of your choice statistical level).

  • Step 2: On your Microsoft SQL Server, create a user of SQL Server database with the database rights of operator (DBO). The default database for the DBO User is that you defined in step 1. Make sure the database user has a role of sysadmin server or the role of database db_ownerfixed on the VirtualCenter database and the MSDB database. The role db_owner on the MSDB database is required for the installation and upgradeonly. This role can be removed after installation or upgrade process iscompleted.

  The user must be created for your standard business as service account (password never expires) with a long and complex password.

  Other steps in the document are for the ODBC connection.

  Creating the tables is made during the installation of VC. Nothing to do. A characteristic is not to stop the SQL Server agent because some tasks are scheduled in the database to 'compact' statistics.

  For the record, the database is upgraded when installing patches VC creating of new tables, updating of data type or...

• Move one virtual Center Server to another host

  I currently have a small standalone ESX server running some virtual machines in a remote office. It is connected to its own Virtual Center Server. This virtual Center Server has apparently been abandoned and is no longer in service. I wanted to add the stand-alone host on our server main virtual Center, but did not know if something had to be done before hand (move files lciensing, etc.) to simply add the host directly in the datacenter through VIC.

  Thank you

  If you have available licenses in your current environment, you can simply add the host to the.  When attempting to add a host, you will receive a message saying: it is run by another instance of vCenter you want to add it, just say Yes.

  If you get to the other instance of vCenter to disconnect the host, then your VM can drop.

  But if you have your main site to the remote connectivity, you should have problems addding it if licenses are available.

• Installation of licenses on the virtual Center Server

• How to move the VM to another storage without Virtual Center

  Hello-

  I read some other posts on the moving a virtual computer to another storage without Virtual Center and there is a good post, but I have different problems, because my situation is a little different.

  My VC is currently stored on a local storage of the ESX servers.  It is the virtual machine that I want to move to a shared storage.

  You guys can help me with some of the steps I can take to move this shared storage better?

  I'm not too familiar with Linux, so even copy files etc, I'm not sure how to do it.

  TIA!

• Virtual Center Server

  Hello

  I would just like to double check that we plan to do the following:

  We want to upgrade to vsphere 4 and the first thing we will do is virtual Center upgraded version 2.5.0 in the virtual center of vphere.  After that, it may be a month or two before upgrade us the hosts.  Is there a problem to do this way?  The virtual centre of vsphere 4 will work without any problem with esx 3.5 hosts.  Users will be able to use the new vi client and connect, manage and make existing tasks with the guests of 3.5.

  The existing virtual server is the license server.  I guess all I have to do is update the virtual center with the new license?

  Thank you

  The license server will not disappear, so you just need to keep it around your 3.5 hosts, once they are gone you will add the key code in the vCenter for your other hosts, under settings-> licenses vCenter.  After the upgrade you will need the license for vCenter but not so much for ESX4 until you move in this way, then you can add them in.
