Suggestion on the move from ESX3.5 to ESXi4.1 in mixed environment

Hi people,
I just wanted to know regarding the upgrade from ESX3.5 to ESXi 4.1. In my environment, there are 40 ESX ESX 3.5 version with 2 having 4.0 with SAN and DAS storage, but due to budget constraints we modernize only 5 ESX to ESXi 4.1 and the rest may be later. Need to know everything by keeping these diffirent version ESX in a mixed environment in different cluster will be no problem from the point of view of performance. Any suggestion will be highly appreciated. VCenter version is 4.1

Thank you
vmguy

They works perfectly on servers ESX 4.x = you will not be able to move the ESX host 3.5 without decommissioning of the virtual hardware

  • The upgrade from ESX3.5

    I intend to improve 3.5 U2 to U4 production environment. Definition of ESX for maintenance mode is perfect, but after the upgrade the upgrade of VMware ESX tools should be mounted on all virtual machines that require the restart of these VMs. in this case all of my production.

    Forgive me, but what is the point of the maintenance mode if you still need your complete production environment is restarted?

  • Eager to HELP! On the upgrade from ESX3.5 to vSphere4.1

    Help! Help! Help! This problem has me stuck for a few days... Thank you all for your kindly help in advance!

    I need to upgrade 2 ESX 3.5 server to vSphere4.1, and I've updated vcenter from 2.5 to 4.1. VCenter is installed on one of the virtual machines in ESX3.5 server (let's call this node-A, another node-B ESX Server).

    I intend to upgrade the node-B, then move vcenter and Update Manager from node A to node B, and then to upgrade node-A. This process is OK?

    For the upgade process:

    I had Manager Update installation on another virtual computer on node A and download the ESX4.1.0.iso of "Host upgrade releases" using the vSphere client. Then I create a new baseline, choose the option to upgrade host base type and select a data store that resides on the local disk on node-B. Fix this reference to the node B, node b, then analyze the updates, result shows that this basic line is non-compliant. I don't know why it is non-compliant, I found not the newspaper.

    Any tips on that? Thanks to you all!

    The clean-up operation will not proceed if you got under virtual machines on the host you are trying to clean up.

    Now, if you have configured mode fully automatic DRS, everything will be done for you (when you start the operation of sanitation, the host is placed in maintenance mode, then all running virtual machines are evacuated to another host). Otherwise, you'd have to all VMs running manually vmotion to another host.

    I have a host esx 3.5 with local storage of VMFS. Currently I use the full blown esx 3.5 installed on a pair of dedicated local record. I want to spend to esx4i using a USB to internla.

    What happens if I simply plug in the usb key and change the boot order? did I lose all the data on current vmfs stores? He will come to the top the vmfs stores and then just a case of manually register the virtual machine?

  • Questions about the movement of 1 of 3 ESXi4.1-ESXi5 host domain controllers.

    Is this environment that I have 3 2008 R2 domain controllers.

    1 physical

    2 virtual

    I want to turn off a virtual domain controller and move first host (ESXi 4.1) on second host (ESXi 5).

    My concern is that if the NETWORK card in the guest OS is going to get dirty with or it will remain as it is.

    If I remember not the mac address will indeed change (unless I hard coded it in the configuration file), but that shouldn't be a problem.

    I don't know, what if a new NETWORK card will appear in OS making old useless NIC originally invited me to change the network settings.  Something I don't want to have to do.  I know I've seen a similar problem with a VM linux before, but don't remember seen happen in a virtual Windows machine.  Just want to be sure before that I have to try.

    Thanks in advance for your comments.


    Greg

    VM migration between hosts will make any changes to the NIC or MAC address. You must ensure that the required networking is presented with two hosts if you want to move between them seamlessly. If the network tag is not the same between the hosts, then you will need to change the settings of the virtual machine and use the drop down to select the appropriate network before turning on the new host. But this should be easy and quick and without surprise.

    See you soon,.

  • Cannot export the movie - unknown compilation error - Help!

    I edited a 32 minute film in first items 10, and now I'm trying to export it.  At any given time during export and it seems to vary, I get an error of unknown compilation.  I tried to export the movie from last week and all I get is same failure tried almost everything what I found written on how to solve this problem.

    I have Win 7 Ultimate SP 1 running on a desktop Lenovo with an Intel Core 2 Quad CPU 2.67 GHz, 4 GB of RAM, 32 bit proc.

    First is installed on drive C with 6 GB of free space system.

    Project and scrach disks are on drive D with 165 GB of free space.

    The multimedia files are on 2nd drive E with 50 GB of free space.

    Project and most of the material source is NTSC DV - there are quite a few photos with the movement, as well as some iPhone HD video on the timeline, hundreds of clips in all more narrative, some titles, etc.

    Export destination is the D drive.

    Will be made to the green lines at the top of the timeline (sometimes it stops during rendering and I have to keep hitting Enter to continue rendering, but ultimately it's all green)

    So far I have tried:

    -Reinstall EP 10

    -Reinstall Quicktime

    -Copy all the photos on their own separate folder

    -Editing of each photo a little (apart from PE 10) and re-register to make sure that none of the pictures are corrupt

    -Empty the temp folder

    -Removal of all renders and cache files and let them rebuild

    -Export of small pieces of the timeline to try to identify a bad clip - it is a maddening process and I found a clip that is generating the error, but I managed that export to AVI and re-import and replace it on the timeline.  It would be very nice if PE would just TELL ME what music he loves not if in fact it is a mistake to clip.

    -Turn off the shadow / highlight the functionality I had on some clips, but it wasn't the issue, more small sections with these clips exported correctly

    -Tried to export in different formats: iPad Vimeo SD, MPEG, DV Standard, Standard of high quality AVI - all result in the same error (the format I want incidentally is SD Vimeo)

    -Reboot the machine and transform everything that could possibly consume memory

    This machine has never had any problems for export in the past.  One thing I tried worked - installed 10 EP on another machine (less capable) of Win 7, and fed all media via an external drive.  The other machine made fine export (though it took awhile because it is low-powered).  Is nothing more than a work around edition even though, as I don't normally have access to this machine and I haven't.

    I'm at the end of my mind!  What else can I do to get this movie file to export?

    Appreciate help or clues which allow you to solve this mystery.

    Ouch! 6 GB of free space on your C drive? This is no doubt the bulk of the problem!

    RID another 20 GB of free space on your C and then defragment the disk and it's probably your problems with go away.

    Assuming, of course, you resize your photos, by note of the Bill.

  • Need to 'margins aside"to restrict the movement of the movieclip that follow mousee

    I like to keep the movement from left to right my movieclip that follows the mouse restricted within a 'margin' (excuse my not knowing the technical term if there is one) so it remains inside 75 pixels to the right and left side of the edge of the stage and does not go beyond.

    Here is my code:

    mouse_x = _xmouse;

    setProperty (_root.hand_mc, _x, mouse_x + ((getProperty(_root.hand_mc,_x)-mouse_x) / 2));

    Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this. This forum is GREAT!

    in fact, the code is meaningless since your specifications are meaningless.  This movieclip is unable to be at the near left and right margins.  Did you mean you want this movieclip edges limited to not less than 75px on the scene?  that would be wise and you can use:

    this.onEnterFrame = f;

    function f() {}
    _root.hand_mc._x = (_root.hand_mc._x+_xmouse)/2;
    If (_root.hand_mc._x<75)>
    _root.hand_mc._x = 75;
    } ElseIf (_root.hand_mc._x > Stage.width - 75 - _root.hand_mc._width) {}
    _root.hand_mc._x = Stage.width - 75 - _root.hand_mc._width;
    }
    }

  • How to keep the news of marker to separate files when final mix in a single file?

    Hi all

    Here's my dilemma, 2 wav files (44/16) recorded in Zoom H2.  I want to merge them as file1 file2 follow in a single continuous file.  So I've created a multitrack session again in CS5.5, then drag and drop the file1 into track 1, File2 in the same way immediately followes file1.

    When I look at the individual imported into CS5.5 file1 and file2 (Waveform tab), all markers are there.  But none of the markers are displayed in the markers Panel in multitrack tab, track 1.

    In addition, in the multitrack tab, where I have two files in track 1, I can choose files... Export... Multitrack mixer... Duration of the session.  Once completed, the two files will be merged as one as I wanted, but without any of the markers in individual files.

    No matter what I tried, the file... Export... Files in the range of markers is grayed out (which would help in my case)?

    So, is there a way to preserve the info from marker to separate files when final mix in a single file?

    * I also imported Track1 file1 and file2 to track 2.  Although I can see markers in individual files (Panel tab/markers of waveform), when I drag and drop into multitrack, the markers panel remains empty.  Any ideas?

    * Under the hearing... Preferences... Markers and metadata... all options are checked, except the lock markers and metadata in the timeline.

    Thanks in advance,

    Robert

    Copy and paste in waveform must maintain the markers.

    Open the two files.

    Select file 2, select all and copy to the Clipboard.

    Select file 1, move the played at the end of the file, paste.

  • Remove movies from the hard drive on Macbook Air 2015

    Hello!

    I have several movies I have on my iTunes account.

    So I don't think that they would be automatically downloaded on my hard drive. I just thought that it would be similar to the Iphone you might access via WIFI but not necessarily have downloaded to your device. I'm looking for how to remove movies from your mac on other forms. None of them have asked me.

    Go to iTunes movie right click and delete it. empty the trash, restart the computer. Well by clicking on remove fair skins film of your iTunes purchases and don't take them to the reader. I still only 40 GB to 128 GB storage after the 'removal' of movies.

    They suggested also go to the finder and on the left side of the screen would be a zone of movies. No, it isn't. There's nothing to the media either.

    I'm lost and completely new for the Mac.

    Help...

    Shauna

    The movies have been downloaded via iTunes? Have you looked in the folder/Home/movies/on your computer? You can also check the folder/Home/music/and the other files in this folder to find the files downloaded.

    If you can find the films listed in iTunes, then select them and CTRL - or RIGHT click to select Remove from the context menu. We should ask if you want to move to the trash. Click on this option.

  • Move the HD from one office to another desktop computer

    It is a question about moving the files & applications from one desktop to another. I try to get 1 year of use of existing & software equipment.

    I have an office of stand-alone Dell old 12 years with Windows XP that I use every day at home. I have an old Dell Office of 7 years with XP & no apps or files that I have gained from the work that I do not use.

    I guess the older machine is sick because I have to reset the clock each time I boot Windows. It seems to work otherwise. I want to act before the death of the sick machine.

    A method that I am considering moves chips drive & memory fixed older machine to the latest machine. These two components are less than 3 years. I replaced a fixed disk damaged & added some memory.

    The other method I see is to copy the contents of the fixed disk on the sick machine on the newer machine fixed drive, leaving the components in place.

    I know I need to buy new hardware and new software. I would wait 10 Windows.

    I'd like suggestions on the simple, reliable and cost-effective method to buy more time by using existing hardware.

    To move the data from the user, just install the xp installation cd, search for "other tasks" in the

    menu, search for "File Transfer Wizard", set the pc as old pc, select the file to save, save files

    in a new folder that you created, once its through, out of xp cd. Move the new folder to a cd

    Once through, on the new pc, install the xp installation cd, locate the file transfer, set the new pc, select

    to search for files, installation cd with user data, find the folder on cd, install FTW

    It automatically... Best bet is to run FTW on a new user account, and then move the files to the other as

    necessary. It's one way, others, install the HD from old pc to new, HD set as slave,

    with the HD as a slave, the data can be used with the operating system.

    Windows 10 is already available.

  • In Movie Maker, I want to place a photo on a part of a video without stopping the audio from the video.

    It's all in Windows Movie Maker (Windows Vista)

    Example:

    First of all, I want to have a video (with audio),
    change photo (with audio video) and then continue to the same as before (with audio) video

    I have a video with audio.
    I want to put an image instead of the Visual part of the video.
    But in doing so, I want to still the audio from the video to play while the image is on the screen.

    Please help me, I need the answer as soon as possible.

    Hi benlach,

    Welcome on the site of Microsoft Windows Vista Community.  I suggest you try these methods

    Method 1:

    1. drag a copy of the video on the audio / music.

    2. her completely to the left on the track.

    3. right click / Mute the Audio track... now the audio will be separated from the video but still play correctly.

    4. divide the video and to delete an article of the same duration as it turned again.

    Method 2:

    1 divide your video clip on each side of the area where will be the stills.

    2. now... drag the part cut on the audio / music. BTW... If you want to add a second 5 again... Remove 5 seconds of the video clip. (Info below on the separation if you need)

    3. slide your shots yet to the time line and drop them to the location where you have removed the video.

    4. the Audio clip on the audio / music can be dragged to the right or left to adjust its position.

    Info on splitting...

    "Split a Clip in Movie Maker 2.1"

    1. drag the video clip on the timeline.

    2. play the video/audio by clicking on the 'Play' button under the display screen.

    3. you will see the playback indicator (vertical line) to move forward on the scenario.

    4. click on the "Pause" button at the location where you want to cut and type... CTRL + L or click the "Split" button at the bottom of the display screen. (You can also make adjustments by dragging the playback indicator)

    5. as the many coves that you want and delete unwanted items by right click / Delete.

    And... Movie Maker 2.1 shows that all of the other images. To see all the pictures of Movie Maker 2 shows you all-other-frame. While you are editing project, Movie Maker Vista displays each image. It is generally not a problem ignoring middle managers, but sometimes you notice a flickering image in a clip that is a "stray", and you can not see or cut it out. If you apply the Slow - Down - half video effect to a clip in the timeline panel, see you then each image rather than everyone. You can see the frame problem and separate out. Remove the effect of the clamp to return to normal.

    Let me know if that does or does not work. Good luck!

    Hope it will be useful.
