• How to change the config of vCenter Server Appliance (5.5) ESXi host vm? [Solved]

  I want to enable (set to true) memoryHotAddEnabled and cpuHotAddEnabled on the vCenter Server Appliance.

  I can't the powerCLI user because he needs a vCenter Server Appliance to connect to (right?) and to allow HotAdd of the virtual machine must be turned off.

  For anyone wondering, the best way to do this is to connect the ESXi host via vSphere Client, turn off the VM vCenter and update the configuration in this way.

• VCenter Server Appliance 5.5 update w/o VUM

  I'm Manager my first vmware environment. We are a small company and using the Essentials package. I have two hosts upward with a vCenter Server Appliance 5.5 Build 2063318. I'm looking for a way to update the device for security patches. I have not been able to find how to do that when we don't have a Manager Update server configuration. I downloaded the .iso file but have not been able to find all the commands that will allow me to manually install the package. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  I found the solution.

  I did and now there works.

  I think that the problem can come from this.

• Location of the vCenter vCEnter Server Appliance 6.0.0 vs Linux plugin file

  We have a plugin where we were using vCenter 6.0 hosted on a Linux server.  I could get my plugin files in /var/lib/vmware/vsphere-client/vc-packages/vsphere-client-serenity and /import/storage.

  We then deployed a vCenter Server Appliance 6.0.0 our plugin and it has a different directory structure.  The structure of directory changes to /var/lib/vmware.

  Where can I find the folder of vsphere-client-serenity or its equivalent.

  Or plugins to treat device unlike a vCenter 6.0 linux host?

  
  

  Thank you.
  

  I found it in/etc/vmware/vsphere-client/vc-packages/vsphere-client-serenity

• Setting up Certification Authority (CA) signed certificates for vCenter Server Appliance 6

  Hi all

  Recently, I managed to migrate to vCenter Server Appliance 6. 5.5, there was a large KB (2057223) on Configuring Certificate Authority (CA) signed certificates for vCenter Server Appliance. I tried to do as it says configure the certificate for v6.

  Unfortunately, I understand that some services such as lighttpd are changed in version.

  Can anyone provide a new instruction for the v6?

  Thank you

  Thank you. That helped me to see the idea. However, the explanation in the pages that was not complete. I had to search for more.

  This blog helped me solve my problem with the generated certificate:

• VMware vCenter Server Appliance 5.1 is not Autostart cluster

  Problem:

  After a VMware vCenter Server Appliance failure does not start automatecly.

  I have configured to start automatecly to each host, but it does not start automatecly.

  My configuration:

  Shared infrastructure-plate-forme PowerEdge VRTX with 3 servers running

  -3 x VMware ESXi 5.1.0 (799733)

  -1 x VMware vCenter Server Appliance 5.1

  -Servers run as a cluster with HA.

  Unfortunately Autostart VM is not supported in a Cluster, and so the settings are ignored. VM in clusters must be turned on manually (or using a script,...).

  To configure DNS on the vCSA change the Type of address to SLAAC-IPv6 first and you can add DNS server address and the host name.

• Open connections of hosts and vCenter Server Appliance

  We have number of ESXi hosts configured in our environment with vCenter 5.1, far ssh is open to all in order to access all hosts via SSH. Although authenticating the users available but, even then, the issue raises so bound / restrict administrators IPs or subnet of the network for security reasons. Will be the same for vCenter Server Appliance.

  Also can we restriction of IP level for the Vmware Client users, good that now everyone can make the connection between vSphere and vCenter cleint. Please advice

  Hi friend

  Please see below the resources needed to achieve the same on ESXi

• If the patch management can be done by VMware Update Manager in vCenter Server Appliance as similar vCenter Server

  Hi friends,

  If patches of the host management can be done through Vmware Update manager vCenter Server Appliance as in vCenter Server.

  Tell me other differences between them...

  Kind regards

  Sirot Vijay

  1. Yes we can connect to the device using the vSphere client.

  2. in the installation of the update manager VCenter information will ask and he will automatically fit no special measures required.

  3. no conflict. Its just like you have two vCenter servers, but you can not have two server vCenter managing the same hosts.

• default connection of vCenter Server Appliance no longer works?

  Hello

  We had installed 5.5.0.5201 VCA and works very well for a while now. At any given time in the last 24 hours the reason, the default root | VMware connection fails to work?

  Domain creds for vClient still works, but we are unable to connect to the actual device.

  Not quite what our options are, or why this happened!

  You may have hit the expiration of the default root account which is 90 days.
