The transfer server storage shared for vcloud Director cells

Similar Questions

• vCloud transfer server storage

  I am trying redhat vCloud 5.1on installation and I followed the installation guide. But at the next section:

  vCloud transfer server storage

  To provide storage temporary for uploads and downloads, a NFS or another volume of shared storage must be accessible to all the servers in a vCloud Director
  

  cluster. This volume must have permissions writable by root. Each host must turn up the volume in $VCLOUD_HOME / / data transfer, usually/opt/vmware/vcloud-director/data/transfer. Uploads and downloads are the storage for a few hours a day. Pictures transferred
  

  can be large, so allow at least several hundred gigabytes to this volume.

  I'm bit confused about the wording, I guess that saying I need an NFS volume to go up to my cell vCloud. Future vCloud cells that I add to this group will have to mount this volume share the same NFS mount point?

  The host ESXi has access to this volume NFS as in the guide there is no 'a NFS or another volume of shared storage must be accessible to all the servers in a vCloud Director ' or it means just cells vcloud?

  If I only plan to have a vCloud cell do I need an NFS Volume or could just use local storage?

  I'm bit confused about the wording, I guess that saying I need an NFS volume to go up to my cell vCloud. Future vCloud cells that I add to this group will have to mount this volume share the same NFS mount point?

  -Yes, this "transfer file" is somewhat like a shared drive between all THE cells of vCloud Director to a given instgallation.

  The host ESXi has access to this volume NFS as in the guide there is no 'a NFS or another volume of shared storage must be accessible to all the servers in a vCloud Director ' or it means just cells vcloud?

  -Yes... only the cells... ESXi does not mount this at all.

  If I only plan to have a vCloud cell do I need an NFS Volume or could just use local storage?

  -You can use the local storage, but if you want a second cell to fail on... it'll be a bit of a pain to install later.  I recommend this for a test environment.

• Cannot delete the storage policy to vCloud Director 5.5

  I'm trying to delete the storage policy to vCloud Director 5.5. I did in several vCloud Director organization VDC but stuck with one on the same instance of vCloud Director. I migrated all the VMs, the media and the VAPP model to another storage strategy. I checked in vCenter as there is no VMs who belong to this policy. Always in the vCloud Director, I see 30MB "asked" to this strategy of storage for this VDC.

  Any ideas what I need to check? How can I find what always uses this storage strategy?

  The problem has been resolved. Failed ISO image was only visilble in Administration and media & other only. After it has been removed, we were able to delete the storage policy.

• Management Pack for vCloud Director (vROps) connection problem / authentication adapter?

  Hello

  I'm trying to configure the Management Pack for vCloud Director (Cloud Management Marketplace |) Solution Exchange) and I seem to be having trouble with the simplest thing. I have the Solution installed and configured for most, but for some reason usually reach out and join the vCD server, or have a kind of authentication problems. When I test the map with appropriate powers (local and LDAP in vCD), I get the error:

  Cannot establish a connection on the target system. Logon failed! using Host = < FQDN > User = < adminuser > @System

  The adapter puts the @System after him, or is this something so simple, that I'm more thinking than he. I'd be happy to post any kind of newspapers if needed, let me know what you need.

  Thanks a ton!

  You HAVE to put @system, as it should work with or without. the base public REST API URL is assigned within vCloud Director? See the manual page, installation 28...

  Have you checked for ports Firewall open between the machine virtual analytical and vCloud Director host?

• Storage vMotion in vCloud Director

  Hello

  It is already possible to have a vm to a data store to another without interruption in service (storage vmotion ) with vCloud Director. If this isn't yet - it is planned to apply this? This isn't a feature for the Org Admin, but for the vCloud Admin, especially when - storage systems go to replace. And don't tell me to use a storage-virtualization product. Even those who should be replaced one day ;-)

  That would be average cource, Org-Admin would see several data stores during the migration the vapps. One thing to consider is of course how manage fast-provioned vm. Consolidation is no real option, since the virtual machine must be turned off (unless the gui). And of course, it's a unique solution...

  Thank you

  You should be able to use Storage vMotion directly * BUT * there * traps * you need to be aware of:

  (1) you * need * of storage vMotion virtual machine from this data store in your PvDC

  (2) If you use Fast provisioning (Linked Clones) the Storage vMotion, no he will not keep the format of the source, and * WILL * consolidate the virtual machine.

  If you want to keep the disc format, use the vCloud API and the * move * call the API (it will take care of everything you need to keep it as a linked clone).

  Note: I speak on 1.5.x, as you have profile storage & DTS 5.1, you can manage differently with DTS Maintenance mode >

  Hope this helps,

• VCommander is really a replacement for vCloud Director?

  Hello

  someone said that vMware has bought Embotics vCommander and is to promote the planning is as a replacement for vCloud Director.

  If in the future, there will be no vCloud Director, only vCommander as vCloud 5.5 is the latest version of vCloud Director.

  Can someone shadow light on it if it's true or just a rumor?

  Thank you in anticipation

  Ashish

  vCloud Director goes because there are many common features between vCD and vCAC. And the positioning of these two manufacturers are becoming increasingly difficult. I think that's the only reason why they plan to stop it. And it will always be available to service providers. Not be included in vCloud Suite.

  I don't think that VMware will purchase another product like vCommander and enter in more complex questions of positioning.

• Is it possible to use GPFS or another build is a SAN storage shared for multiple ESX and ESXi hosts?

  We have a license GPFS and SAN storage. I am trying to create a storage shared for multiple ESX and ESXi hosts share existing virtual machines. We tried once NFS, it of a little slow and consume too much bandwidth LAN.

  Anyone can help answer? Thank you very much in advance!

  It depends on your storage space.

  You must connect all hosts to the same San, then follow the configuration guide of ESXi and specific documentation for your storage space (for sharing LUNS on multiple hosts).

• How to change the transfer server repository

  Hello

  I made a mess!  Play with the new 4.5 ViewServer I configured transfer server repository directly on my server from view. Now, I created a real transfer server, but I can't change the repository, unless I stop to see serve. But if I stop View server I can't reconfigure the repository...

  This information is written anywhere in the server (or vCenter db)? In this case, I can edit the record in the Database.

  Thanks in advance

  Kind regards

  Davide

  in this tutorial http://paulslager.com/?p=624 is teaching you to install the server transfer, put in maintenance mode follow by adding the repository. Please do the opposite way that putting maintenance, then remove the transfer server and the repository will be deleted as well together.

• MCAK for vCloud Director 5.1

  Hello

  We use the most recent MultiCloud since vCloud Director but now look at upgrading to vCenter vCloud Director 5.1.

  I had seen a mention of help soon with version 5.1 of vCD, but did not see if it is available, or in what version it will be.

  Would you be able to give an indication of support for this version, please?

  Kind regards

  Paul

  You should have no problem with the latest version of MCAK vCloud Director 5.1. All the features of the IAC has been verified. What is not yet supported is 5.1 VCD API, so you would not be able to take advantage of the new features of the product/API with the adapter IN VCD (although you can always write your own custom using HTTP requests process to call the new REST API directly).

• How to check if the virtual machine is managed by vCloud Director

  Hello

  I need to find a way to check in Orchestrator so the virtual machine is managed by Director vCloud.

  I can't verify this with PowerCLI command below:

  (get - vm Vm_name *). ExtensionData.Config.ManagedBy.ExtensionKey

  

  .. .but my goal is to check in the orchestrator workflow.

  Help, please.

  You can get the same information from the VC:VirtualMachine object in vCO.

  Create a workflow or action with a named input of type vm VC:VirtualMachine and the snippet of code below would get the information you are looking for.

  var extensionKey = vm.config.managedBy.extensionKey;

• autonomous VMRC console for vcloud Director

  Hello

  I use the stand-alone vmrc available in this link VMware vSphere 5: Private Cloud Computing, server and data center virtualization to open the console vsphere.

  Is it possible to use the vmrc to open vcloud Director console?

  Please help me.

  Thank you.

  Autonomous VMRC is not supported with vCloud Director.

• Not the DHCP server from Microsoft for Windows 7 support dhcp/tftp bootfile name based on vendor-class-identifier.

  Original title: dhcp/tftp boot file name based on vendor-class-identifier.

  I'm trying to start a Texas Instruments AM335x Evaluation Committee using the Windows 7 USB RNDIS driver.

  AM335x is an ARM Cortex-A8 microprocessor.

  I need a DHCP/BOOTP/TFTP server which is able to select the startup file to send via TFTP, based on the identifier of the provider class.

  I have this working on the host Linux-Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. 'dhcpd' is the DHCP server.  dhcpd is able to select the image file

  based on the received BOOTP message.  For this ARM system, it serves a sequence of image files: submarine - spl.bin (secondary program loader)

  then u - boot.img (bootloader) and finally uImage (Linux kernel).  The dhcpd.conf configuration file contains the following code:

  If substring (option vendor-class-identify, 0, 10) = "AM335x ROM"

  {

  file name "u-boot - spl.bin";

  }

  elsif substring (option vendor-class-identify, 0, 17) = 'AM335x submarine SPL.

  {

  file name "u - boot.img".

  }

  on the other

  {

  file name "uImage";

  }

  Thus, the dhcpd Linux BOOTP server is able to select the correct to send from the Linux host via TFTP image file.

  based on the content of the message BOOTP ('ROM AM335x', "AM335x submarine SPL" or neither of those two.)

  Y at - it for Windows 7 Microsoft DHCP server that has this capability?

  If this isn't the case, you know a server program DHCP/BOOTP/TFTP for Windows 7 that has this capability?

  Could do you using netsh?

  Thank you for your attention,

• Change vCloud Director cell Hostname

  I've deployed the unit of 5.5 vCloud Director and the default values of the hostname to localhost.localdom. I tried to change this to console (Option 3) as well as the webpage (https://hostname:5480). Every time after I reboot, it is up to the localhost.localdom.

  No idea how I can keep this standing?

  Thank you

  Scott

  Go to/opt/vmware/share/vami/vami_set_hostname in the cell of vCD

  And change the line that says:

  HOSTNAME = "localhost.localdom" to your desired host name. Save and exit.

  Restart the unit once.
