The upgrade of the tools of vm and vm hardware version

Hi all

I've recently updated our vCenter for version 5.0 Update 1 and we have a mixed infrastructure composed of running ESXi 4.0, 4.1 and 5.0 ESXi ESXi hosts.

I need some clarification on versions of database tools to the virtual machine and vm hardware version.

I read that if I pass the hardware version to 8 on my virtual machine, then no matter what host running a lower than 5.0 ESXi will not be able to see these vm... is this true?

Also vmtools being dependent on the ESXi host version, what is the best way to upgrade for my vm vm tools? Upgrade of all virtual machines that are on 5.0 ESXi hosts?

Really, what I'm asking, is how to manage the tool of vm and vm version levels of material in a mixed environment of ESXi.

Work wants everything to be more 'late', but it is simply not possible with some hosts on ESXi 4.0 and ESXi 4.1.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, it's true. HW version 8 is only supported on ESXi 5.0 and later.

In order to upgrade the version of the material, you must be on the last tools first in any case - this is the recommended method. In order to upgrade the version of HW, you need to fuel the VM so this failure should be taken into account in your courses on the latest plans.

Personally, I use PowerCLI to upgrade all the tools and cela as part of the monthly patch cycle when failures are already planned. You can install the tools without a reboot in advance by using the switch - NoReboot in your syntax PowerCLI (although there is a clause in the help files that says something along the lines of reboots may still occur in some circumstances, but I haven't done this experience yet).

In regards to the HW version, I try to upgrade downtime is planned and only to force an upgrade, if I need a feature not supported on an earlier version.

in your case, if you have any mixed clusters or there is a chance that you will need to migrate a virtual computer on an older host go then the virtual hardware. When I upgraded to Version 5, I ensured that no virtual material has been updated so that all guests were on ESXi 5.0... But also rememer that new VM created on your hosts 5.x will HW version 8 and will not be able to run on hosts earlier.

  • What is the tool to bless and why it prevents a clean reinstall?

    I'm helping a friend who has erased his internal HD due to a problem thinking it was a startup disk. She also didn't

    have a backup.

    I made an installation on a USB disk using diskmaker. When I try to start now the Option button, I get the recovery partition disk utility.

    When I select the bootable as the boot floppy installation disk, I get a message that it cannot be used as the startup disk. The Bless tool was unable to put the current startup disk.

    What is the tool to bless and is there something that can help me to do a clean install of El Capitan?

    Thank you

    Well, first of all, if you used your identifier Apple to download the operating system and then using your license to install on the machine of someone else will not work because the license is not transferable and is linked to the Apple ID used to get. the recipient would not be able to update the apps or reinstall because they need your Apple ID and password.

    If you use recovery, why not just use to reinstall the OS - have you tried designate the hard drive? I would try disk utility to repair the hard drive and the re-partition/format. As far as I know, bless tool is part of the operating system and tries to find a boot disk; I looked, and although I found a lot of questions, I was not able to find a definitive answer.

  • Is it useful to download the soft both CC and CC 2014 versions or should I keep only the version CC2014

    Is it useful to download the soft both CC and CC 2014 versions or do I keep only the version of CC2014 and uninstall the CC version?

    Because it is heavy enough to keep both versions of all the apps.

    Thanks in advancefor your answer

    If there are features you need, and who were dropped on CC2014, such as the filter of painting with oil, then by all means install both.  Personally, I uninstalled CC and CS 6 and earlier versions.  I can always reinstall if I need them.  Because a single installed version makes interprogramme operations much more simple, as the operating system knows just what program to use to open a. PSD, for example.

  • Refine the tool missing - select and mask does not work on hair

    I also do not know how to use this tool. I need to select the edges of the hair and used the brush once I was inside the dialog box refine edge. This allowed me to use the brush on the edges of the hair, and he would choose loose bristles. Now select the and mask feature selects a large part of color that is affected by the brush and does not select just the strands. So I find myself with a person's head and a blob of 3 inches from the bottom red on each side of the head, because it acts as the tool magic wand or quick selection instead.

    How to make a selection with the lasso tool, then refine the edge and select the hair? I often hear to use the pen tool, but who's transformed into a selection eventually anyway. Is not wise to make a selection tool feather each and every time you want to select the hair - I make a selection of the entire body of the person and what part of it can refine the edge. Totally lost on how to select just the hair strands and refine the edge.

    Hello

    See this post: refine edge is back

  • Problem with the tool photoshop pen and little

    Hello, I have a problem with the tool feather of Photoshop cs5. I can barely see paths im making. Is it possible to fix it?

    Isee the pen tool paths im how's it's just makes it miserable to use this tool:

    http://ImageShack.us/photo/my-images/18/85169959.jpg/

    You can barely see the paths (I did a few trails to show the photos.)

    Secondly, in the bottom of the file it says "Exhibition in 32-bit only", even though I have windows 7 64-bit and 64-bit photoshop cs5.

    How to solve these problems?

    Thank you.

    The thing that says 32-bit exhibition (has nothing to do with what version of cs5 your use) could be here because you have already opened or created a document in 32-bit/channel mode.

    You can change what appears here by clicking on the little arrow and choose something else.

  • Where is the registry entry for the tools-> advanced-> general-> browsing-> Use Hardware Acceleration where Possible

    Anyone know if this can be enabled/disabled in the registry and where it is?

    Tools-> advanced-> general-> Browse-> use hardware acceleration where Possible

    So in order to change the preference via a script, I found information that needed to be changed in "subject: config", "thanks cor - el", then he ran into a batchfile as follows

    Example A - it is run once and added to the current file prefs.js, but maybe it can stay alone.

    CD /D "% APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*.default".

    Set Ffichier = % cd

    echo user_pref ("layers.acceleration.disabled", true); > > "% ffile%\prefs.js".

    Set Ffichier =

    CD %windir%\System32

    Example B - this is run and creates a new file called user.js or adds to the existing one. This file has a higher priority to prefs.js

    CD /D "% APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*.default".

    Set Ffichier = % cd

    echo user_pref ("layers.acceleration.disabled", true); > > "% ffile%\user.js".

    Set Ffichier =

    Example C - this replaces user.js each time, by changing the number of ' > ' change it to append to crush.

  • VSphere Upgrade (Tools from VMware and Virtual Hardware on Windows clients)

    When you perform these upgrades, there are things to be aware of that are not visible or in any documentation for VMware, I saw. I created an overview during my upgrade, so I thought I'd post it here.

    Thanks for the information, write well.

    I would like to add to the list of traps - my point of view is on one side of Windows.

    1. If you use VUM updgrade tools or hardware, check that the client is configured to support suspended snapshots

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalID=1007696

    2. If VUM can upgrade tools, but not the material, turn off comments, and then try to upgrade the hardware of the v4 to v7

    3. the upgrade VUM method seems to work well if you have a single network adapter.  We had trouble with several NETWORK cards and NETWORK load balancing.  Due to the hand reconfiugre.

    4 NETWORK GHOST who are left cards account contain their original network configuration.  This can be useful to check the configuration of the new interface.  NETSH to view the configurations on GHOST interfaces.

    netsh interface ip show config "Interface name".

    5. in regard to the lost NETWORK GHOST cards, and WINS settings I wrote a script to help.  The script is a batch file and use devcon;

    Some menu entries in the main menu bar are hidden if you are using the mouse and only appear if you use the keyboard to open the menu (Bug 626825).

    You can see the difference if you use Alt + F to open the file menu and other menus such as the Edit (Alt + E) menu and the menu bookmark (Alt + B) and compare that to what you see, if you use the mouse to open the menu after the bar of menus visible by typing Alt or by pressing F10.
