• High utilization of the processor and memory virtualized vCenter 6.0

  Hi community

  When I upgraded my physical servers, they told me that virtuelise the vCenter server was recommended by Vmware.

  so that we did it, but since I think that when I connect to my vCenter with RDP sessions, the server was slooooow...

  then I watched the Führer in there and he uses 97-99% of the CPU and 99% of the memory, I spent 8 GB of memory, 2 CPU.

  I have my SQL DB on the same server running as a SQL Express 2014. windows server is trodden updated and so are the vCenter.

  After a while of google, I found this post, but don't relate to 6.0.

  Technical notes for Kayser: VMware VirtualCenter Server - use of the high memory in Java

  I found the course.

  It was VEEAM who has not removed the temporary snapshot of the virtual machine, I deleted snapshots and my VM has it to 180 GB 400 GB

  and the CPU fell to 40-60% and 80% memory

• Inventory of the ESXi and vm report

  Looking for a way to modify this script or better. Currently I have a script of two liner that first queries all comments poweron/stop vm and their fate to get esxi hosts. Once completed, it exports the results to a csv file. The problem? It takes a long time to complete. VSphere has only about 600 VMS and I guess why it takes a long time is that it is the research of the esx host that the vm is headquartered query.

  Here is the code in question.

  $vc = to connect-viserver 'VCNAME '.
  Get - VM | Select Name, @{N = "ESX host"; {E = {Get-VMHost - VM $_}} | `
  Export-Csv - NoTypeInformation C:\VM_Host.csv

  We hope to hear from someone soon.

  Thank you

  E

  If you have a host with no defined on that SSN?

  Try it like this

  $report = foreach($esx in (Get-View -ViewType HostSystem -Property Name,VM)){
      if($esx.Vm){
          Get-View $esx.VM |
          select @{N="VM";E={$_.Name}},
              @{N="Host";E={$esx.Name}}
      }
  }
  $report | Export-Csv -NoTypeInformation C:\VM_Host.csv
  

• Can the ESXI 5.0 and Vmware View coexist on the same server blade

  Hi team, sorry for the basic question, but can I install the ESXI and Vmware View on the same server?

  Kind regards

  Ismail

  VMware view installs inside a server operating system and he can definitley be installed inside a server running on top of vSphere.

• What is the advantage of separating the ESXI OS of the data?

  Hello

  I want to buy a server for my production.

  do I have to configure the server with 2 disks mirrored for the BONES of ESXI and 3 disks in RAID 5 for data or can I just have all the drives in Raid 5 (the ESXI and data)?

  Thank you!

  Dothan.

  No doubt put all disks in a single set to improve the performance of RAID. Once loaded, ESXi runs in memory and writes that the logs and configuration data. The disk space required for ESXi - including a 4 GB partition scratch - is ~ 5 GB. In ESXi 5.x versions, it was a good idea to place ESXi on a separate drive in order to reinstall the system, but with v5.x ESXi reformat the complete installation disk more.

  Even if you want to keep separate data from the OS, you can always create a RAID unit with all disks and - using the RAID controller - create the logical volumes on this RAID (for example 10GB for ESXi) set.

• ESXi and OpenFiler

  OK, that's more information for me...

  IM new in the area of esxi, but have used vmware workstation for years...

  I have install esxi on a dell optiplex desktop computer (for test sake)

  and installed

  Server 2003 domain controller 1 vm, dhcp, dns

  Server 2003 with Server services and Altiris deployment pxe

  I can start... a new machine virtual boot (pxe boot) network and the image of a virtual machine with XP using altiris...

  all this is good...

  now that im confused about saying are a SIN...

  I saw freenas and openfiler

  IM install openfiler now but my question is...

  1 files (say in iso format and applications installation media) are in a virtual machine session or may openfiler connect to a hard drive.

  My goal is just to take an ide drive... connect to a desktop computer and copy on a ton of media in iso format and applications...

  to connect that back to the esxi and use it as a file server...

  If im a little confused on the part...

  IM testing things that we will get our dell blades operational soon and im trying to emulate what we have in there... I just don't understand how you have a file server that can simply use drives without OS...

  confused? I'm so...

  If you install OpenFiler, it will allow you to take the space that OpenFiler can see and share on the network.  You can do it in format NAS, which means that you share space as UNIX (NFS format) network drive or network Windows (CIFS) drive.  CIFS will allow you to map as a drive of Windows machines.  What I wanted to say, it is that you won't be able to take this drive somewhere else for a different operating system and recognized her as you think.

• How to select one of the VMRC and WebMKS of vRealize of automation for the end user

  As you know, there are two Protocol to use the remote console to the configured virtual machine of vRealize Automation. I know how to select one of the VMRC and WebMKS on vCenter via Web Client, but I'm not sure whether vRealize Automation can select one of the VMRC and WebMKS. Is there anyone who knows about it?

  You can set in the law.

• ESXi host goes to the State and the virtual machine does not restart on other host does not

  Hi all

  I'm looking for a solution, in which case the host goes to the State and the virtual machine on it does not restart on a different host (they'll just gray) does not not what could be the problem here and how to fix it

  later when the failed host returns upward machines either go to motor off the coast of the State, or they show that under tension

  While the host is down or not responding do not I am able to ping the host ESXi (5.5) and able to ping the default gateway and the DNS servers of the host itself

  Yes AF, the answer to all these questions is Yes, it is a HA and DRS cluster active, I tried restarting mgmt service, we use a shared storage (storage iSCSI HP 3PAR and left hand)

• Create new vCenter and move the ESXi hosts

  Hello

  I created a new vCenter vCenter apparatus using ISO 6.

  The deployment went well and I have all the installation program. I would now like to move hosts our old vCenter to new ESXi.

  I was reading this article to start the moving process.

  When I try to disconnect the host I get the message below

  

  In the article in the link above it is written that it will not affect the State of the virtual machine running on the host.

  If I click on 'Yes' here, it will automatically put the host in maintenance mode?

  I prefer not to do it if I can avoid it because I don't want to have to evacuate all virtual machines running on the esxi host.

  Wouldn't it be better if I disabled it HA first? Then try to move hosts? Or I'm sure to sign-out and the subsequent removal?

  Thank you

  See you soon

  Hello

  You must put your server in maintenance as a first step mode, then unplug and remove the server. It will work.

  If it doesn't work, disable temporary HA and remove your host of the VC.

• The traffic between a host ESXi and vCenter Server is secure?

  Dear team,

  You pray let me know is traffic between a host ESXi and vCenter server (vice versa) is secure?

  The VC and ESXi version is 5.1U1a

  concerning

  Mr. VMware

  Default SSL certificates are installed automatically. However, you can configure the third-party SSL certificates to make the environment more secure.

• ESXi 5.5 - Virtual Machine fails to PING the gateway and/or other hosts

  Hello ladies and gentlemen

  I have installed HP DL380p Gen8 1 with vmware ESXi 5.5.

  I have 1 with 2 vmnic Virtual Machine port group - vmnic0 and vmnic1 connect 2 virtual machines. If I have the TEAM network cards, a VM (selected) randomly is able to PING to the gateway while the 2nd VM is not. ESXTOP in this case, don't watch not the physical NETWORK card that each virtual computer connects to but says 'all' to the title of the team-TEDDY.

  If I break the team and you use only vmnic0 - none of the VMs connet to the gateway. If I create the vSwitch with only vmnic1 as usable NIC (vminc0 - unused) - once again only 1 VM (randomly chosen) is able to PING the gateway while the other is not (and two VMS use vmnic1 as the uplink to the vNIC).

  The physical ESX host connects to a Catalyst Cisco 2950 switch.

  Can you please advise where can I go from here? It could be a problem with the VLAN when it comes to vmnic0 (since none of the virtual computers are able to connect through this vmnic), but what is happening with vmnic1 (a virtual machine connects randomly while the other doesnot)...?

  I tried several forums without success.

  Managed to solve this one-

  1. The uplink switch (Catalyst 2950) was Port security enabled on all THE Ports.
  2. I had to disable the port on a given set of ports security (to which are connected the physical network adapters).

  Everything seems to work fine now.

  Bravo to all the entries!

• Change the view hosts ESXi and Vcenter Ip addresses

  Hello

  Because of our new zoning, we need to change the IP addresses of all our guests view ESXi as well as our vCenter server View.  Is it still possible without altering the DB ADAM that uses the view?

  Thank you

  Mooge

  If your ESX hosts are added to vCenter by host name and your vCenter are added to the view by hostname that you should be able to make this change without affecting the view.

  If your vCenter is added by IP, then you will have problems.

  If your ESX hosts are added by the intellectual property so that you can use maintenance mode to migrate all the virtual machines on each host, remove from the inventory, then add it to the cluster using the new IP or host name. View should have no problem with what we don't reference the hosts by their host names in any sort of statically.

• How to list, view, and edit the directories and files of ESXi 4.1 host?

  We are in transition to ESXi 4.1and I examination of the chnages will make managing hosts. We will use ot vMA and I have working for most things, but there are a few tasks I would like to be able to do that I can't understand.

  How to check a file system of the host. I would like to be able to browse, discover, and/or modify some files ESXi host. (for example/var/log) do not know what are the options I have for this with ESXi 4.1. Which of them, you can browse the file host system? Are there other ways?

  • vMA (can not know how to do this with vMA)
    
  • Browser such as https://ESXi host/file and https://ESXi Host/host (these only show data warehouses and select the conf/log files. are there other links to directories of home?)
    
  • Tech Support Mode (this seems to work, but I can not list directories/files. Seems that I need to know exactly where and what I'm looking for)
    
  • vSphere CLI remote
    

  vmksummary went with ESXi and vmkwarning/vmkernel are wrapped in messages.  You can get to spend / HA / agent logs via https vCenter / sharp (or other API methods.  We can create cron tasks, but that goes into the field of the non supported. You can set up syslog to push the message log file to a syslog or receiver to a location in the data store.

• Attempt vSwitch configuration change and now the ESXi host and virtual machines offline

  So I have no doubt, I have myself to blame for this one. I was trying to change my vSwitch from 100 Mbps to 1000 Mbps when an 'operation timed' error out jumps-to the top and my vCenter Server lost connection with my ESXi host. I tried to restart the host manually, but that did not help. The host is not the ping requests and all the virtual machines on that host are offline; None of them vMotion off to my other ESX Server.

  I tried to reconnect the host computer in vCenter, but it is obviously does not connect because it can't ping it. I logged the ESXi console and all the network settings appear to be correct. I'm used to connect to the ESX console where you can execute commands, but it's my first ESXi host, so I don't know what I can do.

  Any help is greatly appreciated!

  If you had your management port and VMs on different vSwitches / NIC leave on framework would eliminate a false positive. As in your case the management port reportedly follows the cable / about speed, but the virtual machine network would be intact (and I'm assuming that your storage space as well).  In this case the VMs system would have worked very well even if the management port did not work.
