• vsga and vdga on the same host

  Hello

  Is it possible to have different pool created on the same host and have some VM (pools) that use VSGA and other virtual machines (pool) that are using VDGA on the same host?

  Yes it works very well! (Assuming you have at least 2 GPU:s or Board with more then a GPU as a K1 or K2)

• VShield service Manager installation and vShield app to the same host ESXi

  Hello, I'm planning on vCloud Director assessment in a laboratory with only a single ESXi host.  When I try to install the app vShield service I get the following warning: do not install on a host or a cluster where the VC or the vShield Manager resides. This can cause network problems. The following IP address must be a unique IP address assigned to this unit of App vShield. Please do not use an IP address that is assigned to another machine, including the VC, vShield Manager or any ESX host. Using an incorrect IP address you will need to uninstall and reinstall App vShield on this host. My question is: is it is absolutely impossible to install vShield manager on the same host ESXi as the vShield Manager resides?  Or is it just a bad practice?  What are the ramifications of installing?

  It is a general practice to separate management and resources. What you see is just a warning. When there are very fewer resources available you can do. Make sure that you exclude from the required VM by referring to this post

• vCenter Server and Manager on the same virtual machine and on the same host ESXi update that they manage

  Hi all

  I have a question to which I did not respond.

  I have an ESXi 5 on Proliant DL380 G7 server host. I want to install vCenter Server and Manager Update on one of the Server 2008 R2 VM on the same host. I know it's possible, but my question is how Update manager will provide updates to the same ESXi host it will run on? The update is applied every time host must spend in maintenance mode and power off the virtual computer running on this subject which means he'll kill VM where vCenter Server and Update Manager is running and the update will fail right?

  Is that possible at all or the VCS and UM such as a virtual computer operating point is updated to other guests if you have them or vMotion as VM to another host when you want to update the VCS and UM host is running?

  Thanks in advance.

  It will not work.  You will need at least two hosts.  This way you can vMotion the vCenter VM to another host.  From there, you can use VUM.  Otherwise, you will need to patch the host as a stand-alone host.

  See below for patching a standalone host

• Method for patching only host ESXi4.1 and VC is on the same host

  Hello people,

  I'm patching one of the ESXi, 4.1.0 348481 and Vcenter Server 4.1 Update1 (VM) is sitting on the same host ESXi. Please let me know how I can this patch

  a single host as the Vcenter also will restart. I'm looking to patch manually rather than Update Manager. How patch manually the ESXi host as there is no rounds in ESXi and what serves the Cli. If his VCLI then what is the command for the application of patches and download link. I'm looking to get the procedure. Any help on this

  will be well appreciated.

  Thank you

  vmguy

  If you have another host, you can vMotion your VM vCenter to it, then use AUVS to patch.  If a stand-alone host, then you will need to turn off vCenter and all the guests and try the method below

• VM on the same host and vSwitch talk internally?

  VM on the same host, using the same vSwitch automatically talk to each other internally on the host when they need pass data without using the NETWORK interface card or is there something specific that needs to be configured to do?

  Thank you

  With the virtual machines on the same vSwitch network traffic will proceed on via virtual network cards so the interaction network will not differ from the VM to communicate to a physical host.  Network traffic between virtual machines (assuming that they are on the same VLAN) will stay in the vSwitch and not go through the physical network on the host layer.  Thus the inter-VM traffic can exceed the speed of the NIC port in the vSwitch.

  vSphere includes VM Communication Interface (VMCI) that allows a host to communicate with the virtual machines without going through the network layer.  You can also enable VMCI for VM VM communication.

• Internal network for clients on the same host?

  Is it possible to set up an internal network so that if the VMS and B are on the same host and tried to access B (or vice versa), all network traffic will be handled internally by ESXi without the need to go upstream?

  Hello

  This is the behavior by default when two virtual machines are on the same portgroup and in the same VLAN.

  Traffic will not leave the vSwitch in this case.

  If you want the virtual machines only isolate the virtual machines from the outside network, you can create a new portgroup for them and do not add physical network cards to the portgroup.

  This way, the virtual machines can communicate with each other.

• MSSQL server VM cluster should be in the same host or different hosts with RDM

  Could someone me on how to place the code SQL cluster s VM with RDMs in ESXi hosts for advice.

  What is the best practice to place the SQL VM s in ESXi hosts.

  Affinity or an anti-affinite...?

  Appreciated your valuable answers.

  Depends entirely on the use case.

  • 2 MS SQL nodes on the same host to see the availability of the software
  • 2 nodes on different hosts to see the availability of the equipment

  I'd say MS Clusters on the same host (at the time of HA and vSMP FT) are redundant VMware features and represent an increase in management fees. The MS cluster on hosts provide something in addition to what VMware vSphere alone can provide!

• PowerCLi script to check if 2 virtual machines are on the same host

  Hello

  I'm nubby on PowerCLI and I would like to help in the construction of a script.

  The script should check if two virtual machines (named test1 and test2) are running on the same host in a vCenter and send a notification (email), if they do.

  Something similar with affinity / anti-affinite DRS rules (but not through the DRS enabled on vCenter).  My focus is on the affinity. In case this happens, I need vMotion one of them on an another ESXi host(manually or automated).

  What I have done until now is the following:

  Get - VM | Select Name, @{N = 'Cluster'; {E = {Get-Cluster - VM $_}}, '

  @{N = "ESX host"; {E = {Get-VMHost - VM $_}}, '

  @{N = 'vCenter'; E={$_. "(ExtensionData.CLient.ServiceUrl.Split('/') [2]}}, '"

  @{N = "Datastore"; {E = {Get-Datastore - VM $_}} | `

  Export-Csv - NoTypeInformation C:\Scripts\file.csv

  That becomes all the VMS and export a CSV file information:

  Name	Cluster	ESX host	vCenter	Data store
  test2	cluster_test	ESXi_test1	vCenter_test1:443	datastore1
  Test1	cluster_test	ESXi_test1	vCenter_test1:443	datastore1
  For1.local	cluster_test	ESXi_test1	vCenter_test1:443	datastore1
  VM1.local	cluster_test2	ESXi_test2	vCenter_test1:443	datastore1
  VM2.local	cluster_test3	ESXi_test3	vCenter_test1:443	datastore1
  VM31.local	cluster_test3	ESXi_test3	vCenter_test1:443	datastore1

  Thank you.

  Try like this.

  $tgtVM = "test1", "test2".

  Get-VM-name $tgtVM | Group-object - property VMHost | %{

  if($_.) County - gt 1) {}

  $vm = $_. Group | Get-Random

  $esx = $vm. VMHost

  $tgtEsx = get-Cluster - $vm VM | Get-VMHost | where {$_.} Name - not $esx. Name} | Get-Random

  Move-VM - $vm - Destination $tgtEsx VM - confirm: $false

  }

• Pairing of two VMS (always on the same host)

  
  I was wondering if you can marry two virtual machines together so that in the event of a host failure, they will stay together on the same host.

  You can create a rule to DRS for this (keep the virtual machines together). HA and DRS can complement eachother and in the event of a host failure, DRS will stay two VM together. For this purpose on the modification of your cluster settings part. See a screenshot here:

  Transport is not executed on primary, because you log_archive dest parameter is not correct.
  Your problem here:

  log_archive_dest_2 string SERVICE=PRIMARY NOAFFIRM ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) DB_UNIQUE_NAME=STANDBY
  

  You must change it to:

  alter system set log_archive_dest_2 ='SERVICE=STANDBY NOAFFIRM ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) DB_UNIQUE_NAME=STANDBY';
  alter system set log_archive_dest_state_2=ENABLE;
  alter system  switch logfile;
  

  Change the setting and paste here the results, please.

   select process from  v$managed_standby where process like 'LNS%'; -- on primary
   select max(Sequence#)  from  v$archived_log; -- on both side

• Can migrate a virtual computer to another virtual hosted by the same host computer?

  Deal all,

  I have two questions and I need your help.

  (1) I wonder if a virtual machine can be migrated to another virtual machine that are hosted by the same host ESXi 5.0? (The host has a local hard drive). If possible, how?

  (2) if I have two stand-alone ESXi hosts (host A and B), each host has DAS (local storage) respectively. If the VLC Player is running on a virtual hosted by host A computer and playing a video stream from the Internet, (it is not at all access local storage). This virtual machine can be migrated to host B? (Suppose vCenter is installed)

  Any response will be appreciated.

  Cheng

  You can clone this VM VM A i.e (require vCenter or vmkfstools allows you to clone the drive ONLY) and name VM B. do you want on original VM. Something happened to A VM, VM B you Savior.

  vStorage the device (here). It will use your local or DAS.

  Laughing out loud

  And the use of valid_node and invited_node is fairly lame to start. I always wondered why implemented oracle implementation in their layer of sqlnet at all, being the right place to do the filtering on the router ip.

  So now you must be wondering why a single instance - and no others - used it in the first place. The solution to your dilemma will depend on the answer to this question. It could be that for a particular instance of filtering IP was valid. However, the decision to do so at the level of the layer of tns was wrong, and then pass that instance to a host with other bodies which have different requirements only aggravated the original error.
