• New hardware configuration of ESXi environment

  I'm relatively new to a company (to a month ago and I am the only person in what the other person until I started has left a little more) and I was tasked to virtualize ~ 30 physical servers (mainly old systems Solaris 10 which I do not expect to migrate to CentOS VMs).

  I'm now panicing, because even if I have some knowledge of vmware (install ESXi and the creation of virtual machines in vSphere etc.) I have little knowledge about the side things network and how to build a SAN and network connect/configure it via a switch and guests ESXi etc to make the virtual machine environment. Can someone provide some good links that show how to do this step by step for someone new to this? -I'm getting bogged down with the vast amount of information out there. Vmware give to those who may visit a site and help to set up a new environment. Sorry if I ask the wrong discussion group

  Also, I think I'll go with the Dell hardware, which is:

  2 x PowerEdge R710
  1 x PowerVault MD3200i (iSCSI)
  1 x VMware vSphere Essentials Plus

  Someone would be able to verify if the options below, I chose for the hardware will allow me to build an environment full of the virtual machine or if I am missing a few bits & bobs and I'll be able to tie together using a HP ProCurve 2810 - 24 G Switch exisiting?

  For the PowerEdge R710
  * Basic PowerEdge R710 Rack chassis, up to 4 x 3.5 "HDDs
  * CPU: 2 x Intel Xeon L5640, 6 c, 2.26 GHz, 12 MB Cache 5,86 / s, 60W TDP, Turbo, HT, DDR3 - 1066 MHz
  * Memory: 32 GB memory for 2 CPUs, DDR3 1333 MHz (8X4Go LV RDIMMs to clocked at SV)
  * Mounting card Riser with 2 PCIe Slots x 4 PCIe x 8 + 2
  * First RAID Controller Card PERC H200, integrated RAID controller for x 4 bottom of basket
  * Operating system without an operating system
  * Module SD internal accessories with 1 GB SD Card for integrated virtualization options
  * RAID connectivity C1 - without RAID PERC H200 controller, 1-6 or 1-8 hard drives based on chassis
  * High output power supply, block, redundant (2 PSU), 870 Watt BIOS Performance parameter
  Network of card Broadcom NetXtreme II 5709 Quad Port 1GbE NIC, PCIe-4
  * LOM embedded Options integrated Gigabit Ethernet NIC with TOE 4 p
  * Server management card iDRAC6 Express Server Management Card

  For the MD3200i
  Basis of PV MD3200i external iSCSI Array of RAID 12 bays with two controllers (4 Ports per controller)
  * Power supply redundant power supply (PSU 2) 600W
  * Primary Hard Drives (12) 450 GB SAS 15 k 3.5 "HD

  
  I don't know there is more details you may need to help me with this then, sorry and please ask if you need more details, etc. I appreciate a lot I'm asking - I bought a book of vmware but I'm stuck being a single person IT, if I don't get a lot of time to read.

  
  Thank you very much

  the listed material is enough to set up a cluster of two nodes vSphere. We can guarantee that the hardware is compatible with the software (ESXi) using vmware HCL.

• Suggested for the RAID level configuration

  Hallo,

  I have a server 4core, 16 GB of RAM and 4 SAS 140 GB discks whith fiber channel EMC SAN. What is RAID level suggested for reduncancy and performance?

  RAID 1 + (a single disc advanced to other uses)

  RAID 10 (is really necessary for an ESX configuration?)

  others

  RAID 5 (suggested for VMFS, but not for a simple configuration, ESX)

  RAID 6 (not suggested because that too slow)

  Thank you

  As for local storage (as opposed to the EMC SAN) I'd go with RAID 1 + 0 for optimal performance. If you have an EMC SAN you probably store most of your VMs on the San. Your local storage space will be for your ESX installation and perhaps a data store for testing. Thus, you do not want to go with a RAID that offered high performance and redundancy, even if she does a high-cost disk, because the size is not you primarily on local storage.

  As for your EMC (Clariion AX regardless), you will want to cut LUN based on the needs of performance of your virtual machines.

  LUN RAID 5 for your regular VMS

  LUN RAID 1 + 0 for SQL (Oracle or Microsoft SQL SERVER) or machines virtual Exchange

  Just my two cents on the views of storage vary, and the right answer for you depends on your environment.

• Suggestions for a new laptop - perhaps Satellite Pro L550-17U

  Didn't know where to ask it is here in the General category.

  I'm looking for a laptop replacement with some specificity. I can get most of them, but the last of them is difficult. If the requirements are:

  17 "screen with a horizontal resolution at least 1600.
  Minimum of 4 GB of RAM (8 would be nice)
  Running Windows 7 64-bit
  Bluetooth

  and finally, the duck:

  Supports Intel VT (Virtualization Technology)

  I thought that the Satellite Pro L550-17U would be OK, but looking at the Intel site, it does not seem that T6570 processor supports VT and it must be supported in the BIOS even when, and nothing in the spec says that it will be.

  Any person able to provide any help please? I would stay with Toshiba, as I had this high reliability of them, but would consider other fact (sorry Toshiba) if it is the only option.

  Roger

  Hello Roger

  In my opinion the most important question is: how much you are willing to pay for the new laptop?
  Satellite L is OK, but don't forget that the L-series is, in general, not the best model of Satellite.

  What objectives do you need new notebook?

• During the installation of a wireless mouse, the 'New Hardware Wizard' appears unnecessarily!

  During the installation of a wireless mouse, the "New Hardware Wizard" pops up, and more than a half a dozen times looking for the pilot.  I installed the driver from the disk provided by the manufacturer.  Actually, the mouse works correctly and doesn't have another driver not found.  Someone has suggestions for the "new hardware found" stop?

• Migration of virtual machines in ESXi 4.1 to 5.5 to new hardware

  I'm new to VMware and our company bought 4 new servers and a SAN to replace our old VSphere 4.1 installation of 12 year.  The old configuration consisting of a server VCenter 4.1 physics 2003, 2 Dell 2900 ESXi hosts and 1 MD300i SAN.  Gen9 again the Installer 4 HP DL360 (3 host 1 VCenterServer) and MSA 2040.  Can someone please explain to me what would be the best way to go about moving more of our VM current for the new hardware? I found this from a previous post here, but it does not move the virtual machine to a SAN to another.

  Migration of the VMs of ESXi 4.x to 5.5

  "If I understand your question, continue to build the new environment of 5.5 with your 3 hosts from scratch 'ignoring' your old hosts. Once your new environment up & running, connect 4.1 guests to your new server vCenter Server and vMotion to move virtual machines while they run to the new cluster (live migration without interruption).

  VMTools upgrades do not have place automatically during migration.

  Once your virtual machines on new hosts, update tools as usual and you can then also upgrade virtual hardware of your virtual machines.

  Virtual HW update is optional, though; If you do not have the VMs that need the new features you can skip this last step and keep them as they are. »

  TYIA.

  The previous answer is pretty good, but I would like to add a few elements.

  You can 'disconnect' your 4.1 hosts of your old vcenter with running virtual machines, and then when you connect the hosts in your environment of 5.5 it will import your VM running as well.  As long as you have properly configured virtual networks you can live migrate vmfs old host and the old store of data simultaneously via the web client as long as your esx license allows it.  Otherwise close your virtual machines down to 1 at a time to migrate them above.

  Alternatively, you can consider running your vcenter as a virtual machine within the cluster it manages.  This gives you some DRS and HA for vcenter, plus a 4th host for virtual machines.

  If you don't have additional license you can also install your new hosts of 5.5 and run for 60 days before that you upgrade your 4.1 licenses to apply to your new host.

• Vista SP2 update causing CompactFlash new hardware detection repeated even after installation of the driver

  I have a footstool of m8100n HP Pavilion Windows Vista Home Premium.  Since the Vista SP2 which was installed yesterday through the update of Windows, my PC guard detection of new hardware when I registered.  The application popup never ask again once, ask later, or update/search recommended for software to install what is recommended.  After selecting the option recommended and install the software that it finds, I get a popup about CompactFlash is now detected and ready to use material.  After this exercise, looks all right.  However, every time I connect as administrator or standard user on my Windows Vista computer passes through the detection of the same material and the update.  He should not have to repeat this after installation and update of itself for the new hardware.  What is the cause and Microsoft is aware of this problem?

  I worked with HP on the problem.  It wasn't a problem of driver from the manufacturer because it had no software update HP.  The integrated CompactFlash drive location doesn't have a drive letter assigned.  Do not understand why that would be a problem because on the removable media drive letters are assigned dynamically when you insert a card or a player.  Records didn't have drive letters when running on SP1 and it wasn't and issues then.  This seems to have become a requirement for SP2.

  The fix was to go in Windows disk management and pre assign drive letters to the disks 1 to 4 that are for CompactFlash removable media, MS/MS-Pro, SD/MMC and SM/xD-Picture on my HP m8100n PC.  Once this has been done and that Windows detects new hardware because of the SP2 update drivers, it installs successfully and is no longer repeat the detection/installation process.

• I can't initialize the disk for my new external hard drive

  I can't initialize the disk for my new external hard drive because the drop-down list in the Disk Management Console does not give me this option. I'm logged in as an administrator and running Windows XP.  The driver for the new hardware is not digitally signed because I can't initialize the disk.  So I can't get my new hardware to run.  Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get the option "Initialize disk" in the Disk Management Console?

  Hello Honduras1,

  Can you simply right-click and format everything first?  The drive must be formatted before use, make sure that you format NTFS.

• How can suggest us a new DBA ECO certification for very large databases?

  How can suggest us a new DBA ECO certification for very large databases?

  This web site, or what phone number can call us to suggest the creation of a certification of VLDB ECO.

  The most important databases that I've ever worked with barely more than 1 trillion bytes.

  Some people told me that the results to be a DBA change completely when you have a VERY BIG DATABASE.

  I could guess that maybe some of the following topics in the configuration can be on it,

  * Partitioning

  * parallel

  * more large block size - MAS vs. OLTP

  * etc.

  Where I could send a recommendation?

  Thank you Roger

  This forum is probably your best choice, Brandye would be one of the contacts I would use to make such a request.  If you are really interested in this, I would be further demand more.  Specifically, most Oracle certifications available to have a corresponding course available in the OU. If you want to create a new certification, one of the most compelling arguments would be to suggest a certification that tests information for which there are already one or more courses.  Looking at the current offerings of courses 12 c, the following two seem to come more close to what you ask for:

  Database Oracle 12 c: implement partitioning Ed 1

  Parallel processing in Oracle Database 12 c Ed 1

  These areas are covered somewhat in 1Z0 - 117.  You will need to make a case for a certification that hit different areas of knowledge.  Looking at the course for both subjects, partitioning has more that are not covered in-depth on 117.  However, it is supposed to be a 12 c Data Warehousing expertise certification coming out this year that may require a partitioning good knowledge.

• Hard Drive configuration for CS5 master collection

  Dear all,

  I'm looking for advice on what drive configuration to use. I'm currently reformatting all readers for a new installation of cs5 and I have the following readers:

  1 WD Raptor 10000 RPM 150gig

  2 WD Raptor 10000 RPM 300gig

  3 Seagate 7200 rpm - 1.5 to

  4 Seagate 7200 rpm - 1.5 to

  I have read the various messages of forum, but need some clarification on what to install on this disk

  I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit with 6 gig memory and i7 processor

  I guess windows is best installed on one of the fastest WD drives. and my video projects on seagate drives.

  Where program cs5 files should be?

  I have raid options, but do not know a lot about the best set upward

  All welcome, advice would try to do things first!

• Satellite P105-6064: Windows always searches for new hardware, reader of CARDS SD

  When I insert my SD CARD windows search for new hardware, it happened only with the SD CARD, when I use my CARD MMC is not the problem, I have the latest drivers on the site of toshiba and windows XP - SP2

  Hello

  It seems that the Satellite P105-S6064 PSPA0U supports a 5 - in1 bridge media adapter.
  This bridge media adapter supports the shared locations. This means that several types of cards can be used in this slot as a Secure Digital (SD card) card, memory stick, memory stick pro, Multi media (MMC) card and card xD picture card.

  Seems that after the use of different cards, the pilot must be refreshed and so windows search new device.

  In my opinion, there is nothing wrong, but it would be interesting to know if the same thing happens on OS installed since the Toshiba Recovery CD.

  By the way; The Sat 105 seems to be a mobile US and if you need drivers you must search on the Toshiba site we drivers compatible and taken in charge!

  Best regards
