the host profiles and CVS?

We have hosted 5300/5400 severa intels in a cluster of evc.  We did a profile of the host of one of these servers.  Then we added a new server intel 5600 to VC, but not in the evc cluster. We then applied the restarted host profile. We were surprised to see that vmware allowed us to vmotion virtual machine to a host in the evc cluster to 5600 host without complaining.

My question is the hsot profiles modify the host server to match the settings of evc also?

VCA is not included in the profile of the host. VCA is actually CPUID masking at the virtual machine level. If it is not a surprise that you can VMotion VM of EVC cluster to more recent host.

    For more information, see guide installation and Set Up Syslog of the section of the Interface of host profiles in vSphere Installation.

    Connect the Server vCenter by using the vSphere Client.

    Click home.

    Create a new profile or modify an existing profile.

    In the Edit Profile dialog box, set one or more of the five configuration options.

  • Auto Deploy, host profile and answer files

    Hello

    I'm busy trying to learn a little more about Auto deploy. I'm trying to figure out what is the best practice when it comes to the part host profiles of the automatic process of deploy. The way I see there are two ways to use host profiles.

    (1) for each host, I create a separate host profile and create necessary deployment rules, one rule per host.

    (2) I create a host profile and only one rule of deployment and then use the response file option to create the unique settings of the host.

    I've set up two option, option 2 seems less reliable while option 1 works every time. So my main question is what is the recommended method to use profiles to host with Auto deploy.

    Thank you

    Hello

    It is usually done through your supplied option 2.

    Create a profile from a host of reference and apply this profile to a host or a cluster.  Usually a cluster or however you define your deployment rules.  Update of the personalization of the host, then remove it from maintenance mode.

    (1) there, in the current version no cmldets to clone a hostprofile.

    But you can use the API. Something like that

    $hostProfileName = "MyProfile" $prof = Get-VMHostProfile -Name $hostProfileName 
    
    $profMgr = Get-View HostProfileManager
    $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.HostProfileCompleteConfigSpec $spec.Annotation = $prof.ExtensionData.Config.Annotation$spec.ApplyProfile = $prof.ExtensionData.Config.ApplyProfile$spec.CustomComplyProfile = $prof.ExtensionData.Config.CustomComplyProfile$spec.DisabledExpressionList = $prof.ExtensionData.Config.DisabledExpressionList$spec.Enabled = $prof.ExtensionData.Config.Enabled$spec.Name = $prof.ExtensionData.Config.Name + " - COPY"
    $profMgr.CreateProfile($spec)
    

    (2) changing the settings in hostprofiles can be done, but the ILO requires a thorough knowledge of the workings of

  • Disable / enable sharing (salting) memory in the host profile

    vSphere / esxi 5.1

    Does anyone know where is memory privileged share between virtual machines in the profile of the host?

    I disabled the salting after it has been put a patch last year, but now my cluster complains of being non-compliant and I cannot find the setting in the profile of the host.

    No matter which help out me?

    Looking for a Mem.ShareForceSalting in the profile of the host. Allows to set the value of salt.

    The current value can be discovered by esxcli system parameters list advanced o/Mem/ShareForceSalting. I guess you want to change to 1 (default is 2)

    You can edit this profile host to change the right profile---> advanced configuration Option---> Clik---> Add Profile. Create a new profile with OptionProfile at the bottom of this sheet.

    Expand OptionProfile---> Advanced Option---> select "configure a fixed option.

  • Why can't I just copy a profile to another system in the directory profiles and modified the ini file

    My main system crashed. I have a copy of the profile. When I move a copy of the profile in the profiles folder and edit the ini file to use the new name, I get a message that there is an instance of thunderbird running and I need to shut it down. I don't see any instance of thunderbird anywhere in the Task Manager. It happens just for me the fact that I am also in firefox may be the cause of the problem to a running instance. I'm under V31.7.0

    I tried to simply move the mail directory in the existing profile. The thing is that I don't see the old messages. I can see all of the subfolders of the Inbox on the left but not messages in the right pain. I can see new messages, but it's all in the Inbox and not filtered to the subfolder.

    I tried to activate the function of multiple profile but that doesn't seem to work.

    MY BAD
    It seems that I had something that was bad in the profile. I got the profile from a backup and now Thunderbird works fine.

  • How to restore the user profile and the content that I deleted.

    Help!

    I deleted a user profile and need to know how to restore.

    All emails and documents were stored under this profile.

    I thought that information was stored on computer for all to access.

    Yikes!

    I did a little research on Google and found this: http://forums.getdata.com/computer-data-recovery/978-how-recover-deleted-xp-home-user-profile.html which has a link for it: http://www.recovermyfiles.com/

    The person who used it happily replied that it worked very well. It seems that you would need to purchase the software to perform the restore. Note: I have not used it myself and can not say anything good or bad to this topic

    Other things I've read, it seems to do a restore of the system to a previous point is a bad idea and makes recovery more difficult.

  • 10 workstation online best way to keep the host offline and guests?

    Newbie question: Workstation 10 - have a host Windows 7 Ultimate x 64, several guests Linux Mint 17.3 (KDE). The machine is portable i7 with 16 GB of RAM. The network is wireless only (cannot use cable in current situation).

    I would keep the Windows 7 host permanently out of the network. The guests are online and used for web and similar access. What would be the best way to set up on the side of the network, assuming that it can be done?

    Thanks a lot for your help!

    PH

    Hello

    Well this is... depends on what you intend to 'offline' for the customer.

    If you are planning that the guests to be accessible from the outside (I mean through wifi to your host), the host has (?) to be somehow connected, so online?

    There is perhaps a way to restrict connections from hosts on the outside... so that web page in emails do not work, but the host is will still be able to receive a part of traffic in my humble OPINION.

    With my knowledge and my experience, I know:

    -You can connect a guest with his * own * USB hardware. I mean you can disconnect from host a WiFi USB (or USB ethernet adapt) card and connect it to a given host. So the host could be offline (no wifi, no ethernet), but the guest can be connected through the material, it will set up.

    -guests could communicate with each other via a 'host-only' adapter or a bridge (as your ethernet NiC).

    -When the ethernet NiC host is physically connected (and guests on her bridge), communication between clients is broken... but a software solution is to add a dummy loopback adapter to simulates network card is connected. In this used during travels by train, without ethernet or wifi, to avoid changing the working configuration of the guests in bridge on the ethernet adapter that I used to have to work! :-) Modifying simply physical WMnet0 (eg) to ethernet virtual network configuration microsoft Loopback to tour.

    Took the 3 above stated and your configuration:

    -1 host must be offline

    -several guests that should be online

    -ethernet to the home not connected

    You can try to:

    -installation of a map of looping to the host (http://www.groovypost.com/howto/microsoft/install-a-loopback-adapter-in-windows-7/ )

    -connect and configure a physical map of wifi USB to one of your comments (comments should have a virtual USB controller installed).

    -share your comments above WiFi connection.

    -Configure the * other * invited to use the above share under their gateway address (and DNS I guess?) and set up their virtual connection through the loop (you may need to manually change the address/subnet of the closure to match that of the shared connection).

    It's an idea to dig.

    Own a unique login prompt works for sure, but use it as a gateway to the other guests might be the tricky part (at least for me)!

    My 2 cents! ;-)

    Kind regards.
