Suspension of Application VSS

Hi guys,.

Asked me my opinion and honestly, that I didn't to my lack of experience with vSphere replication; so I thought that I would ask you of your please.

I understand this suspension of application level requires Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 8.  The 'Introduction to vSphere replication' document indicates that VSS suspension should work with applications such as SQL Server or Exchange.  But what are peoples thoughts and/or experiences with the VSS suspension for applications like Exchange, SQL, and AD?  Has been consistent when replicated data recovered on the DR site?  Do the authors of the database to rinse correctly as planned?

Basically, it works well and everyone has questions or problems with transactional replicated data from the base?  Is it right to use?

Also, I assume that if we had problems with say SQL on a VM retrieved, that this would not be supported by Microsoft?  Since VMware Tools invokes only VSS I don't see any reason why not?

Thank you for your time and hope to hear back with your thoughts and opinions!

See you soon...

But what are peoples thoughts and/or experiences with the VSS suspension for applications like Exchange, SQL, and AD?  Has been consistent when replicated data recovered on the DR site?  The authors of the database to rinse properly as expected?

My experience has been that SQL 2005 SP2 and later on Windows 2003 and later is generally consistent. Usually is the key word, though, in that, it is important to test the replicas for consistency. Can't speack to Exchange, because I never have it reproduced this way. AD will depend entirely on the AD version in use. vSphere U2 5.0 and 5.1 support ID VM-generation, which allows DCs Windows 2012 to replicate this way and be taken in charge. See http://blogs.vmware.com/apps/2013/01/windows-server-2012-vm-generation-id-support-in-vsphere.html for more information on this.

I am not sure on the SQL in MS media with this scenario 100% either - I've heard of conflicing reports and have not seen a definitive answer to this.

The approach I want to take with SQL (if possible) is to use local replication. BAK or OnDemand files backups and virutal machine also get replicated the scene of DR. In this way, you have several options to restore from, if one of them does not work for some reason any. As mentioned earlier, however, test the lines is crucial.

  • Suspension of consistent application on Windows Server 2012 invited with U2 ESXi 5.0

    We lack ESXi 5.0 U2 (build 1254542) and we are going to have problems making consistent application paused on our virtual machines that are running Windows Server 2012.

    We use Acronis vmProtect, and he throws warnings on our VMS in 2012 on the SQL Writer is not not available.  I contacted the Acronis support and they said that it is a problem with the suspension of consistent application.

    When I take a snapshot of a VM 2012 (verification of the ability to perform a capture instant consistent application) capture instant full fine without errors or warnings.  But when I look at the vss_manifests zip file that is created, there is only a single file (backup.xml) with a single line.

    When I take a snapshot of the suspended application on our virtual machines that are running server 2008, the vss_manifests zip file also contains files for each of the VSS writers.

    I checked the disc. EnableUUID is set to true (the virtual machines created on ESXi 5.0 U2 with Virtual Machine Version 8).  I have even manually it specified.

    I checked that the virtual machines use only SCSI disks (there is only 1 disc) and is not a GPT disk or dynamic within the guest OS.  It is a thin disc put into service, if that matters.

    I checked VMWare Tools is installed on the client, and I tried to reinstall it.

    Is there something else I should look for consistent suspension with applications working on Windows Server 2012?

    What do I need to run ESXi 5.1 for this to work?  (Or could I just install the latest version of VMWare Tools manually?)

    If I have to run ESXi 5.1, 5.0 to 5.1 ESXi licenses are worth?  (We have the 5 Essentials license Server vCenter).

    If I have to run ESXi 5.1, must I also improve our vCenter Server installation of 5 to 5.1?

    Thank you

    We've finally updated to 5.5 and everything seems to work fine now.

  • Using NetApp SRA with vSphere SRM and suspension

    Hello!

    My understanding is that SnapMirror is no suspension, so as a result, you will only get consistent backups fail?

    My question is, when you use the NetApp storage replication adapter in Site Recovery Manager, you now get supported in standby, as MRS can work alongside the matrix to orchestrate the recovery correctly?

    See you soon,.

    Bilal

    Necessary for suspension of application with NetApp NetApp SnapManager.

    SRM does not add any capabilities of demand for NetApp mise en veille (or another provider of table). SRM monitoring, can trigger and in some cases reverse replication, but it is not change/impact how replication is running.

    If you perform a scheduled migration (or a failover of DR and MRS can communicate with servers SRM & vCenter protected site), SRM will replicate storage, turn off the system VMs graciously and then happen again so it is not necessary in these cases of app-compatible replication.

    Does that answer your questions?

  • Update disc. EnableUUID, the script does not

    Below, I've posted a script that I was hoping to use to add the disk. EnableUUID option for all my virtual machines. It is important to ebale suspension of application on the virtual machines made prior to 4.1.  It is not actually at work. Who wants to take a shot at figurig why?

    $vCenter = Read-Host "Enter vCenter Server name".

    SE connect-VIServer $vCenter

    $vmConfigSpec = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec

    $extra = new-Object Vmware.Vim.OptionValue

    $extra. Key = 'drive. EnableUUID ".

    $vmConfigSpec.extraconfig = $extra

    Get - VM | % {(Get-vue $_.ID).} ReconfigVM ($vmConfigSpec)}

    Disconnect-VIServer-confirm: $false

    The problem is caused by the fact that the Value property needs a string that says "true" and not the Boolean value $true PS.

    If you change the script like this, it should work.

    $vCenter = Read-Host "Enter vCenter Server name"
    
    Connect-VIServer $vCenter
    
    $vmConfigSpec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec

    I tried to back up my files using an external hard drive (which I have done before with Windows 7 64-bit), but recently I get the same error code. I have re-formatted external hard drive, run diagnostics on it, restarted the computer, etc and nothing seems to work. I also tried both options posted in another forum with the same error and too, they were not successful (external is already NTFS and now that it has been re-formatted is completely empty). Windows has more suggests? I hope not to have to use drag and drop my files whenever I want to save my computer.

    Thanks for the help!

  • Gel applications (suspension)

    I have an application that takes a long time to start. for the sake of long to explain.

    Is there anything Thinapp for me to start the application, freeze and restart it when I need to use?

    I think what happens with Virtual Machines: can I start a virtual machine, launch applications, suspend the virtual machine and restart it, and when I restart it I see all my running applications.

    Is there a similar feature for simple applications with Thinapp?

    Interesting idea, but is currently not possible.

  • vSphere replication with suspension of guest OS

    Hello

    We are setting up vSphere 6 replication. For some VM (Windows 2012) we want to use the guest OS standby to be sure the application/database is not corrupted after a disaster. I noticed that whenever a replication begins and ends, the VM freezes for a few seconds. When I start a ping during a replication, I also see a couple (two or three) waiting times. I wonder if it is a behavior normal and if not, what can be done to improve it?


    Thank you

    It is the normal or expected behavior. This is caused by VSS sleep and the VM snapshot she needs.

    If your application does not require the VSS suspension I would not recommend using it. Most modern operating systems and applications manage crash consistency very well (think of what happens to your application if the host the virtual computer runs on crashes or bluescreens BONES, the end of your application upwards with corrupted data?).

  • Satellite A100 hangs after hibernation / suspension

    Hello

    I have a new A100 with Vista installed. Everything works fine, but there are two REALLY boring problems.

    1. after the suspension or wintering, Vista often hangs when you try to connect to internet/network. I know it's a question that I've seen other people writing similar things on other sites. Y at - it a cure?

    2. When blocking down after using the net, I am often a message that Adobe Reader has a lot of open pages and I can't stop.

    Thanks for your time.

    Hello

    Vista often hangs when you try to connect to internet/network
    (1.) you want to tell the WLan or LAN?
    It's not easy to offer the solution in this case believe me Dimitri. Test and Binder are what you could do, what version of BIOS do you use? Check if the new version is available on the Toshiba page. Sometimes, the update of the BIOS might help.
    Further, you can try to disable the option in energy-saving Wlan/Lan Card properties and try to update the drivers.

    2.) this only happens on my laptop 2 different. But I don t use the Vista but XP.
    From time to time I m not able to stop because a message appears saying: Adobe acrobat reader runs in the background and can not close.
    In this case, you can try to reinstall the software Adobe reader and try to clean the registry with an application of part 3.
    Additional you may stop loading the acrobat reader at the beginning. Simply remove the entry from the registry RUN acrobat reader

  • acceleration of bench of suspension travel active

    my application is a project of active suspension, I need to measure acceleration and integration of two to get the position of an accelerometer sensor.

    I found a lot of codes, it only works in simulation, but it does not work when I connect it on the acceleration sensor.

    I know that I should remove a CC of the speed signal lag after the integration, but it is not clear how we do.

    I know that there are many types of integration features in Labview. which of them I should use.

    My accelerometer is ADXL335

     

    http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/data_sheets/ADXL335.PDF

    Whenever you perform an integration, your result is an arbitrary constant added to what is essentially your starting value.  You have acceleration data.  If you integrate this, you get the speed, but you will need to add the initial speed to this to get the actual speeds.  When you integrate the second time, you get the positions, but you need to add the starting position for this to get real jobs.  So the constants you add will depend on your actual starting conditions (do not forget that the calculation was invented by Newton to describe physics ).

    I usually use Simpon rule for numerical integration, but if you are sensitive to performance, you can use the digital trapezoid rule or rectangle integration.  Before you do anything, you should probably read on them.  The Wikipedia article gives a good overview, but the chapter 4 of the book online Numerical Recipes will give you a much better appreciation for the subject.  Most of these methods of integration is available natively in LabVIEW, so you don't have to write them yourself.
