• DRS Migration threshold output

  I am able to get the value of the DRS Threshold migration of the below,

  $cluster. ExtensionData.ConfigurationEx.DrsConfig.VmotionRate

  According to the value I want to write the output something like below

  If the value is 3 = priority apply 1,2 and 3

  If value is 2 = priority apply 1,2,3 and 4

  Any help?

  Try like this

  Get-Cluster | Select Name,  HAEnabled,  @{N="HAFailoverLevel";E={    if($_.HAEnabled){$_.HAFailoverlevel}else{"na"}}},  DrsEnabled,  @{N="DRS Migration Threshold";E={    if($_.DrsEnabled){    $x = $_.Extensiondata.ConfigurationEx.DrsConfig.VmotionRate    $t = @()    $fa = @()    $priorities = 1..(6 - $x) | %{      $t += $_      if($_ -eq (6 - $x)){        if($fa.Count -eq 0){          $f = "Apply priority {0}"        }        else{          $f = "Apply priority $([string]::Join(', ',$fa)) and {$($_ -1)}"        }      }      else{        $fa += "{$($_ -1)}"      }    }    $f -f $t}    else{"na"}}}
  

• Threshold setting DRS Migration

  Someone knows how to set the threshold for Migration of DRS using Powershell?

  This script allows you to change this setting.

  Note that the values that you can pass are in the range 1 (aggressive) to 5 (conservative).

  This property is only taken into account when the automation level is set to "fully automated".

  $clusName = 
  $rate = 
  
  $clus = Get-Cluster -Name $clusName | Get-View
  
  $clusSpec = New-Object VMware.Vim.ClusterConfigSpecEx
  $clusSpec.drsConfig = New-Object VMware.Vim.ClusterDrsConfigInfo
  $clusSPec.drsConfig.vmotionRate = $rate
  $clus.ReconfigureComputeResource_Task($clusSpec, $true)
  

  Make sure that the 2nd parameter is set to $true, it tells the method ReconfigureComputeResource_Task that the configuration change is "extra."

  Properties that you pass to the method in the first parameter are added to the existing properties of the DRS.

• Grabbing the DRS power on the recommendations in Java

  Greetings,

  I tried to get the DRS Recommendations to turn a virtual computer by using the 'PowerOnMultiVM_Task' method, but he always comes back to a ManagedObjectReference to a 'mission' and not of the "ClusterPowerOnVMResult" object I need.  The software development kit reference guide claims that the method should return together somehow.  I do power over the operation via the vSphere client and recommendations appear very well, but for the same power on exploitation through my code, but also the managed object Broswer, the recommendations nor the "ClusterPowerOnVMResult" appear in both.

  Is there a way to catch these recommendations, I have not seen?  Thank you!

• Check the box of recommendations

  All,

  How do I make custom rules using the new look and find the box of recommendations?

  

  Here is a useful document that R & D created to describe the new dialog box:

  New detail dialog box alarm

  Background

  The dialog new alarm details has a less cluttered look and displays more information, with more flexibility. The dialog box works by using a WCF binding alarm to bind a particular configuration of this dialog box to a particular rule.  Alarms generated by the rule will use the retail new alarm dialog box, as configured in the alarm association.

  Introduction to the Devs basket

  If you want alarms using the dialog box new alarm details, you will need to create an Association of WCF alarm for each rule that you want to display alarms using the new dialog box. If want the dialog box to display the information of the Agent, then the Agent must itself defined as the monitoringAgent on the objects whose scope is your rules.  As a matter of practice, Agents put in monitoringAgent for all the objects they present data for.

  Setting the alarm Association views

  There are three points of view that must be configured for an Association of alarm.

  • Detail view
    • This point of view is on the first tab of the dialog detail alarm
    • Notice must be 300 x 144 pixels
  • Large detail view
    • This view is on the second tab.
    • Notice must be 614 x 144 pixels
  • Agent detail view
    • This point of view is on the third tab
    • Notice must be 614 pixels wide
    • The height is slightly flexible, but should be designed to push the scroll bars

  Configuration details

  A. it comes from the first line of the alarm message. The portion of the title comes from the first sentence of the alarm message.  (Up to the first space after a period). The text under the title is everything that comes after the first space after a period.
  The title must be a static text describing the alarm in simple terms.  Disk space is low, the use of memory, Excessive interrupts.  Do not all variables included in the title of the text of the message part, as a high utilization of the processor is not 90%.

  Note: of the alarm message must have at least two sentences ending with periods.  An error message will appear in the detail alarm dialog box if the alarm message is not formatted correctly.

  B. the purpose in this picture is the property topologyObject of the alarm. This image is missing in one arrow all pointing from parent to child. If the object has no parent (if it is the root of the domain, which is the parent who is shown) then only the object is displayed in the center of the space.

  C. recent history is the view of the small detail in the alarm association. If this is not specified, there is no default. As mentioned earlier, the detail view of small specified must be no more than 300 x 144px.  This view is only passed the alarm and Timerange in the context.

  D. things affected are determined by the parents and the services, to which belongs the topologyObject.

  E. it is the description of the alarm Association. If this is not specified, there is no default.

  F. Suggestions - these diagnoses are customizable associations. You must provide a name and a description for each. It is better to provide some, but a little too customer get bogged down and counterproductive. The diagnose button takes his point of view of establishing the diagnosis . If none is provided, the button does not appear. In future releases, this area can also display the workflow options, as appropriate.

  G. is the important detail view.  It has height restrictions similar to the small detail view in section C, but more bandwidth.  This point of view should be 614 x 144 px.  This can be used to show a completely different view of the metric of the alarm of the small view.  However if the small point of view is designed to be flexible, then it can be attributed to both large detail view. The title of this section is "Recent history", so the view should be compatible with this title.  The range of alarm and time are the only things in the context.

  H. historical table is the default functionality and is not new.

  I. notes is the default functionality and it is not new.

  J. the top table (agent and agent type) is the default functionality and is not new. The lower part is the default value and can be replaced by setting agentDetailView. To make it work properly (not show null), you should make sure that your agent is added to things it watches as the monitoring officer. (The dialog box search agent under /topologyObject/monitoringAgent).  The Agent and Timerange wil spent as context entries.

  K. view rules is the default functionality.

  L is for future use, probably of the thresholds.

  Context-sensitive help is noted.

  These are associations of the alarm from the alarm is almost always useful, especially for places where you can spend this alarm to your specified point of view.

  The rule ID is absolutely necessary, or the user interface will not be able to match your association for its alarm. The description field is good for the detailed documentation. The detail view maps to the views recent history displayed in the dialog box new alarms details.  The large detail view corresponds to the view of recent history on the history/Notes of the detail dialog box tab alarms. This example configuration is a mixture of required and optional parameters, and not all of the optional parameters are defined. There is no agent details view.

  The definition of the icon is not currently used.

• DRS storage recommendations

  Is it possible with PowerCLI for DRS storage recommendations?

  You can get recommendations of DRS of storage for all of your clusters to store data with the following PowerCLI:

  Get-DatastoreCluster | Select Name,@{Name='DrsRecommendation'; Expression = {$_.} ExtensionData.PodStorageDrsEntry.Recommendation}}

• Create the DRS group for guests in 2 groups

  Because of the Microsoft SQL license by the basic model, we need to create groups of DRS for our SQL servers. We have 8 guests, but need to run the SQL VMs on host 2

  We are in the process of migrating to ESX 4.0 to ESXi5.5. We already have the server vCenter 5.5

  We do not have the configuration of ESXi 5.5 hosts yet, so we need to create the DRS groups on the host of 4.0. MS will not wait for us to migrate first.

  We have two clusters (2 external data center). Each with 4 servers esx 4.0. Simple question:

  DRS group cannot be created in a cluster? Can I create DRS groups at the level of the data center. Use a host in Cluster1 and a second in cluster2.

  Thank you

  DRS group cannot be created in a cluster? Can I create DRS groups at the level of the data center. Use a host in Cluster1 and a second in cluster2.

  DRS groups cannot be created in a single cluster and not those of clusters. Nothing else would make no sense in any case. DRS groups are to be limited by the DRS and DRS automatic migrations is only a process of entire cluster in the first place. So what would be the point of a single 'group DRS' through consolidation?

  But of course, you can create two distinct groups of DRS 2 separate clusters.

• Question on the affinity of the DRS Host 'should' pronounce

  Hello experts,

  When using a rule "should work", VMs can run on a host computer to a host no specific DRS group.

  I would like to know under what condition VMs running on a host unspecified DRS group.

  I checked the following document, but this is not to say about the State:

  http://pubs.VMware.com/vSphere-4-ESX-vCenter/topic/com.VMware.vSphere.ResourceManagement.doc_41/using_drs_clusters_to_manage_resources/c_vm_host_drs_rules.html

  Kind regards

  Welcome to the community,

  DRS, DPM, and HA is a complex topic and there are many things that are taken into calculation. (Preferential) rules 'should', can be violated by the DRS if necessary and they could also be violated by HA, because HA is not aware of these rules. If the DRS is defined in the lower priority 2 it will correct these HA based violations if possible.

  For very detailed information on this complex (and interesting) topic, I can really recommend "vSphere 5.0 Clustering technique deepdive ' by Duncan Epping and Frank Denneman.

• Close VMware ESX 3.5 & 4.0 hosts... What about the DRS?

  Hi experts,

  Here I begin this discussion to know the following:

  Facts:

  DRS configured as entirely not automated, no rules.

  Issues related to the:

  What happens with DRS to deploy new virtual machines with Virtual Hardware 7?

  They will receive only on ESX 4.0u2 hosts?

  Could cause instability on the other virtual machines?

  I raise this because I have no experience in mixed environments, and I expect the DRS feature so smart that moves and power on virtual machines on hosts that are able to manage virtual machines with virtual hardware that is compatible with, I'm so innocent?

  Virtual machines with Virtual Hardware 4 can be moved throughout of these clusters 3.5 or 4.0, but what happens with VM with the newest virtual hardware?

  If they had moved in any case on a host ESX 3.5, what will be the behavior of this virtual machine?

  Last, but not least important, what do guys suggest to bypass this until I have all migrated hosts?
  (Migration of all hosts will take more than a month, support and SLA issues, so I need a workaround solution)

  Thanks in advance for your time and answers this!
  Kind regards

  Hello

  1. what happens with the DRS to deploy new virtual machines with Virtual Hardware 7?

  2. they will receive only on ESX 4.0u2 hosts?

  3 could cause instability on the other virtual machines?

  1 VM' with HW v7 will be migrated only between vSphere 4.X nodes in a cluster

  2 VM with HW v7 will be only on vSphere 4.x nodes

  3 nope

  1. I raise this because I have no experience in mixed environments, and I expect the DRS feature so smart that moves and power on virtual machines on hosts that are able to manage virtual machines with virtual hardware that is compatible with, I'm so innocent?

  2. the virtual machines with Virtual Hardware 4 can be moved throughout these clusters 3.5 or 4.0, but what happens with VM with the newest virtual hardware?

  1. Yes, the DRS will be

  2. see comments of mu above

  3. nothing will change on the behavior of the virtual machine, only VMware tool will be updated

  4. all depends on how your is configured, how is use, VM how you would deploy during the month?

• VStorage tie in with the DRS feature?

  I wonder if vStorage works with DRS where if fills a volume, it will automatically move VMs and storage to another volume with more space.

  It has been discussed at VMworld this may be the case that i/o to storage can be looked at for the migration of DRS, but today the DRS only takes into account cpu/memory.

• Exclude a VM to take part in the DRS

  Hi all

  New here so Hi everyone.

  Quick query.

  We have 2 Clusters VMWare which turns a particularly intensive resource. Now that even the dev environment participates in the Drs plan I eventualy to migrate all servers of Dev out of our production cluster and in their own non-clustered DRS activated.

  Meenwhile y at - it a way of out of a particular virtual machine to participate in any DRS initiated migration... ??

  KR

  There are of course-

  Right-click in your cluster, change the settings under VMware DRS choose Options Virtual Machine... from there, you can turn off the VM said

  Good luck

• Exclude the participant to the DRS and HA VM

  Hello

  I am running a cluster 7 nodes with ESX 3.5 and Virtual Center 2.5, the HA and DRS (automated) are activated.

  Is it possible to configure a specific VM to not participate in the DRS or HA migration?

  Thank you

  Steve

  Hey,.

  If you change the settings for the cluster, you will be able to define the attributes of the HYALURONIC ACID DRS by VM.
