The benefits of enabling LDAP authentication for ESXi hosts?

Similar Questions

• LDAP authentication for ESXi hosts

  Hi all

  I want to authenticate ESXi hosts only against an AD domain and I discovered a few procedures already.

  I have a doubt on one point: is - this required to join each ESXi to the domain? Does this mean that I need to create an AD for each ESXi object.

  Many thanks in advance,

  Daniele

  I believe all you need to do is create a DNS pointing to the ESXi host record and make sure your ESXi host name is a COMPLETE (host.domain.com) domain name.

• For Cloud SGD LDAP authentication for users and administrators

  Hello.

  I recently completed the installation of my new cloud of SGD 12.1.0.3 on Linux 6.4 (on a virtual machine).

  My question is if it is possible (and how) to enable authentication for new administrator SGD through LDAP accounts?

  We have already our VM hosts configured to allow LDAP authentication to theirs, but how to configure WHO to enable LDAP authentication even as users of server?  Because users are in LDAP, they do not have a local account on the servers, and we do not necessarily want users of WHO in order to connect the servers anyway.

  One of the objectives to use LDAP is that we want to allow users to have only to change their domain/LDAP password and everything else is updated.

  I see that when an account is created in the OMS, the user is created in the repository of OMS database.  I really want to restrict not know them to log directly in the database, but do how this is possible.  Can we still use pupbld for this?  Probably not...

  I read the book below the Oracle documentation, but it is for SGD 11.1 and I'm under 12.1.

  But the same year, he was not very descriptive about how to set up.

  It sounds almost as if you had to take the decision to use LDAP for the installation of beginning of WHO.

  I hope not, and I do not remember that as an option that I have installed the SGD.

  Configuration of Oracle Enterprise repository to use external authentication tools - 11 g Release 1 (11.1.1.7)

  Yes, you can still integrate with LDAP.   Please see the documentation here

  http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/E24628_01/doc.121/e36415/sec_features.htm#CJAGHGAH

  EM use WLS for authentication, so everything that is supported by this version of WLS will work.  Documentation received instructions for OAM/OID/HAD and Active Directory are specified.

  Users can be changed to type external if they are already created in the repository with the appropriate connection name.   Otherwise, new users can be created.

  Also be sure to examine the external roles option, which allows you to map a LDAP group to an external role in EM by using the same name and automatically assigning the privileges required by this group.

• Linux for ESXi host hash

  Hi all

  I wonder if the hash of password linux can be used as a hash of password ESXi?

  Comment please if someone has done this or have an idea of the approach to this subject.

  Thank you

  Yes, there is currently a bug of security ESX(I) 4.1 (ESX and ESXi) and the encryption of password of pam_unix module uses "A" versus "MD5". Front of vSphere 4.1, MD5 was the default and apparently something changed which caused his default a weaker encryption algorithm.

  VMware KB article was finally produced by VMware after a member of the community identified this security hole. Here's a blog article I wrote which provides more information - http://www.virtuallyghetto.com/2010/07/esxi-41-major-security-issue.html

  If you enable md5, then you can certainly copy the hash of/etc/shadow to your ESXi host, even if I think you're just trying to get the password is encrypted using md5 versus which is solved by editing just the pam module as described in the article.

• Create notification of a particular hardware for ESXi host problem?

  Hello

  One of our 5.1 ESXi hosts is constantly a hardware problem (with hardware alert status).

  We would like to ask for your opinion

  (1) if we create a notification, should we use 'host' alarm?

  (2) is it possible to send a notification to the staff for this particular host with error alarm "host" other than other ESXi hosts (i.e. send to Tony and Stephen for ESXi host A Harware problem BUT only sent to Tony for another hardware ESXi hosts problem)?

  Your opinion is requested.

  Hello

  No, there is no option to select specific host in a cluster. When you set the alarm, it is fixed for the whole army in the cluster.

• Install the HBA drivers for ESXi hosts

  We currently have a plan to install a new system with our spare essentials vCenter license, Emulex HBA cards in the DELL gear that we will make our ESXi hosts.

  
  How to configure adapters HBAS in ESXi, can we recommend has someone already installed drivers Emulex HBA in an ESXi host?

  
  Defining the ESXi host should not be a problem, but it is just to install the drivers in ESXi I'm stumped.

  What version of ESXi, you install? Check the VMware HCL for IO devices and if you HBA is compatible, try to do a default install and maybe the ESXi will recognize and load the drivers without having to do any additional setup.

• What is the best small form factor hardware for esxi?

  Hi guys

  I want to install a laboratory at home with two ESXi hosts to the laboratory vMotion etc.  What is the best compact equipment to buy?  I was thinking about a macmini or NUC?

  Thank you!

  Both work, but are not supported and you will probably need to make some tweaks to make it work.

  According to me, the Mac Mini: s give more 'bang-for-the-buck.

• best practices for the deployment of resiliency using a single ESXi host

  I was wondering if anyone had some advice or a deployment guide for ESXi in an environment without using a cluster. If the cost was not a factor I'd put it in a pool, but this can be done. So, assuming that it is an ESXi host with multiple network cards, which would be a good way to cover areas such as backup and restore when you use the free version? The machines that would go on is not mission-critical if there is a pretty good time that machines could be down without causing problems, however, I want to be sure that if the machine were to explode then there will be a way to recover the virtual machines running on this subject.

  Ideas?

  I think, there is no better practical form VMware vSphere Hypervisor (free version) use, but maybe you'll find some ideas here: How to get VMware cost barriers - build an empire around the free VMware hypervisor

• How to change the sha - 1 certificate in my new esxi host

  Hi guys...

  as my lab crashed this morning (my computer has a blue screen) and of all the vm in my workstation crashed.

  When I'm the my computer upward run again and pressed 'play' to start the esxi host, I received some strange error messages.

  I decided to install a new host esxi5.1, and when I have finished configuring the esxi host, I noticed that the SHA - 1 certificate is not the same as the one I have (I have the new esxi I installed, and the older and sha-1 are different between the two hosts).

  I added the vCENTER esxi host, and now I have 2 hosts esxi 5.1 with different certificates of sha - 1?

  I can continue to work in this situation?

  I built this laboratory to study the vcp 5.0 certification. (I also installed the 5.1 vsphere to manage guests)

  It's a way to modify the certificate to the other esxi I have?

  Hope to hear from you soon,

  Best regards

  Nahum

  Israel.

  Hi Nahum,

  Each host is supposed to have a different SSL certificate

  If you are looking to implement of the CA signed CERT for only ESXi hosts, this should help

• How to activate the CVS on a vm on an ESXi host esxi

  I could be missing something, but - how can I activate CVS on a VM esxi 4.0 running on an ESXi host.

  If the host is a real physical box - and I've activated VCA in the BIOS. I then created an ESxi as a vm on the host. In the BIOS, however I don't seem to see an option for VCA.

  This is for laboratory tests /- and I would like to have the opportunity to test the Vmotion in the environment...

  am I missing something?

  When I created the virtual machine of the esxi 4.0 - the operating system, I chose was another 64-bit... is it my problem?

  Thanks in advance

  Lol you can't activate CVS in a VM, period.  It requires VT-x/AMD-V.  Products VMware does not virtualize the hardware-assisted virtualization

  extensions of the physical processor (VT - x or AMD - V).  Thus, the virtual CPU does not support VT - x

  Tested with or without transmit mercury. Photoshop thin ist in 10-bit, only first gives me headaches when 10-bit is enabled via the driver.

  When I disable 10-bit driver AMD via, first normally videos watch. The drivers updated, computer is new.
