• Fixed, it's a bug of 6.0 x - a: PowerCLI, vSphere 6.0 bug?  Lack of 'disk.used.latest' StatType for interval 7200

  I currently have a ticket open for this with the help of VMware and they keep giving me the runaround on this so I'm hoping to enlist members of this community to determine if it is a bug or not.

  We were on a Windows installation of vCenter Server 5.5 U2e with ESXi hosts 5.5U2 and it worked very well.  We have improved our vCenter first to 6.0.0a 6.0.0b, then 6.0U1, where we are now.  Releases vCenter relevant versions are here, not the ESXi host installs.  It broke somewhere in this upgrade path vCenter and I don't know what broke it version.

  
  

  There are four intervals (in seconds) performance stat data is collected and carried over from table to table: 300, 1800, 7200, 86400.  I won't go into how they are rolled in the other or the static logging levels that we believe that the data in the tables is actually unrelated to the bug at hand.  Interior PowerCLI, yUO can see each of the StatTypes for each interval by running the following commands:

  
  

  Get-StatType-interval 300 - entity < name of VM > | Sorting

  Get-StatType-interval 1800 - entity < name of VM > | Sorting

  Get-StatType-interval 7200 - entity < name of VM > | Sorting

  Get-StatType-interval 86400 - entity < name of VM > | Sorting

  where < name of VM > is of course the name of any virtual computer in your vCenter.  This will display something like:

  CPU. Ready.Summation

  CPU.usage.Average

  CPU.usagemhz.Average

  disk.maxTotalLatency.latest

  Disk.provisioned.latest

  Disk.unshared.latest

  Disk.usage.Average

  Disk.used.latest

  ...

  Each of them is a type of stat for which the data are collected.  If you compare the output of all 4 commands above, you should notice that the type of stat 'disk.used.latest' is not listed in the output of the command of 7200.  He just disappeared.

  
  

  You can see the actual data for each of these types of stat by running the following command:

  Get-Stat - entity < virtual machine name > - < StatType > - IntervalSecs < interval in seconds > Stat

  The question, and what we believe to be a bug, it's that 'disk.used.latest ' is now lack of 7200 as mentioned above.  If I execute the following commands:

  Get-Stat - entity < virtual machine name > - Stat disk.used.latest - IntervalSecs 300

  Get-Stat - entity < virtual machine name > - Stat disk.used.latest IntervalSecs - 1800

  Get-Stat - entity < virtual machine name > - Stat disk.used.latest IntervalSecs - 7200

  Get-Stat - entity < virtual machine name > - Stat disk.used.latest IntervalSecs - 86400

  the 300, 1800 and 86400 intervals of output data for 'disk.used.latest' very well.  However, the interval of 7200 kicks on the following error message:

  "Get-Stat: 2016/06/08 10:20:24 get Stat metric meter"disk.used.latest"there is no entity.

  The problem is that, because this parameter is absent in 7200, stats for what he cannot ride in the meantime 86400.  Currently, the latest data I have for disk.used.latest to 86400 is 11/07/2015, which is when we went to 6.0.0a.  The oldest 86400 data 09/06/15.  This is because the 7200 failed to roll up these data in 86400 since we went, but still data are still purged old daily for one year.  11/07/2016, all my data to 'disk.used.latest' to 86400 will be gone.

  VMware support continues to go off on a tangent associated to how he rolls up data, concealing the fact that the interval of 7200 is not completely collected this metric disk.used.latest because there are simply not and so there is nothing to roll up to 86400.

  Then...  I could use help me proof right or wrong on this.  I don't have access to a vCenter 6.0U1, where it is broken.  What I would like is for one person or several people, to execute commands in a PowerCLI session on the following versions of vCenter, 6.0 below GA, 6.0.0a, 6.0.0b, 6.0U1, 6.0U1b, 6.0U2

  Get-StatType-interval 300 - entity < name of VM > | Sorting

  Get-StatType-interval 1800 - entity < name of VM > | Sorting

  Get-StatType-interval 7200 - entity < name of VM > | Sorting

  Get-StatType-interval 86400 - entity < name of VM > | Sorting

  And simply check if 'disk.used.latest' is in the list of types of stat for all intervals.  If I'm right and this is a bug, it should be absent for the interval of 7200 RPM, depending on the version of vCenter.  This check on each version 6.0 vCenter should tell us on which version it broke and if future versions have set.  It would probably be useful if the vCenter has been upgraded from a previous version of 5.x, don't know if this question will be present again. And I don't know if VCSA would show this problem or not.

  
  

  Post here your findings if you're too missing the type stat "disk.used.latest" in one of the intervals or if you present in all intervals, and which version/version of vCenter number you checked against the.

  
  

  Thanks in advance!
  

  I now put my finger on the exact bug in vCenter that is causing this problem and it seems to affect every installation 6. 0 b through 6.0U2 (I didn't test RTM 6.0 or 6. 0).  V5.5U2 vCenter databases, the VPX_STAT_COUNTER table has the following indexes:

  IX_VPX_SC_ENTITY_ID

  VPX_STAT_COUNTER_M1

  VPX_STAT_COUNTER_M2

  VPX_STAT_COUNTER_P1

  VPX_STAT_COUNTER_U1

  After the upgrade to 6. 0b by 6.0U2, or even a whole new 6.0U2 install (i.e. no upgrade), the VPX_STAT_COUNTER table has only two clues:

  PK_VPX_STAT_COUNTER

  VPX_STAT_COUNTER_P1

  The problem is that the stats_rollup2_proc stored procedure (the task of SQL Agent ' past week cumulative stats "called l_stats_rollup2_proc which then calls stats_rollup2_proc) contains a reference to one of these missing indexes:

  SET @sqlCommand_rt3 = 'INSERT INTO' +... + ' VPX_STAT_COUNTER SC WITH (INDEX(VPX_STAT_COUNTER_M1)...

  This causes the SELECT within this INSERT statement execution to return:

  MSG 308, level 16, State 1, line 1

  "VPX_STAT_COUNTER_M1" of the indexes on the table 'VPX_STAT_COUNTER' (specified in the FROM clause) does not exist.

  The effect of this is that the select in the INSERT statement from @sqlCommand_rt3, who is supposed to read VPX_STAT_DEF. ROLLUP_TYPE = 3 meters of tables HIST2, returns 0 rows due to the error above, which means VPX_STAT_DEF. ROLLUP_TYPE = 3 "counters of HIST2 paintings are wound never in the tables of HIST3 because @sqlCommand_rt3 is not select all data.  For worse, management errors in this stored procedure are not to catch this error, or at least not related it to the SQL Agent history shows this task such as running successfully when it is clearly not.

  The answer that seems to be implying to VMware support is that the index VPX_STAT_COUNTER wrong lack 6.0 installed and that it should be there.  Or these indices have been removed on purpose and someone forgot to update the procedures stored to use one of the remaining index (my test indicates that change the stored procedure to use VPX_STAT_COUNTER_P1 instead can also solve the problem).  Whatever it is, according to my tests, this affects every 6.0 installation vCenter, upgrade or new installation is not serious.  Most people notice probably the question most .latest counters do not appear to be exposed through graphical interfaces.  Unless you are specifically looking for counters .latest in the meantime 7200 using PowerCLI, or a third-party program that looks for them, as I did, you'll probably notice even missing these performance data of the 7200 range and beyond.

  The solution is simple: rebuild the missing index on the VPX_STAT_COUNTER table and counters .latest then roll up to 7200/HIST3 properly again the next time the task runs.  By default, weekly and monthly tasks run at 2:15 a wait for day 2 to see .latest counters appear for the interval of 86400/HIST4.

• I do not understand this statement "It is a good idea to keep track that uses a bunch of Audio channels selected in the arrange window, unless you actively play or record on a software Instrument."

  It's a good idea to keep track that uses a bunch of Audio channels selected in the arrange window, unless you actively play or record on a software Instrument.

  Which no longer applies in Logic Pro X 10.2.3. In old versions of logic, selecting a range with a software instrument automatically would make this instrument in "Live" mode, which means that the instrument has begun to transform any MIDI in sound with a minimum of delay. This direct mode becomes an instrument need CPU power (on a single processor) and peut overload the audio engine. It is a waste of CPU if there is no direct game. Then select an audio track would ensure that No instrument is in direct mode. Now (LPX 10.2.2 or more) in direct mode can be turned on or off on a track, chosen or not - it is the R button on the track header.

• WiFi using Dot1x comments

  Hi all

  I have been using the comments in ISE 1.1.4 feature (and earlier versions) for some time and I've always been frustrated with it. I am now in the process of establishing another feedback network using dot1x to refer to the internal source of Userids (where all registered customers are stored) in ISE to authenticate clients.

  It seems to work perfectly for all enabled guests, but newly created account receives the following...

  Status of RADIUS:

  Failed authentication: 24206 disabled user

  Is there a way to bypass activation through the NCB and thus make it possible for customers registered to authenticate using dot1x?

  Political will to change the Configuration of comments portal (not used (s) / first logon / each logon) or the Type of authentication (comments/CWA/the two) solve this problem? Las to change on the fly in a production environment.

  Thank you

• I can reduce a virtual disk using Openmanage

  I had a PERC H730 configured as a RAID 6, and a unique VD was created which contains 6 - 2 TB disk, which gave us a total of 7.5 TB of usable space. Now I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but windows server is only allowing me to create partitions of 2 TB and since we have an operating system installed there and the owners want to keep the recovery partition and we have the OEM partition, which gives me the possibility to create more than just 2 partitions of 2 TB each , so I have about 3 TB that are unallocated and I cannot use it.

  So, am I doing something wrong on windows? and if not is there a way to reduce the disk used on the main VD configured on the RAID, so I can create a second disk and recover unused space.

  I did in regards to the menu reconfigures Openmanage, but don't know if I can do it from there.

  Any help will be appreciated.

  -Jose

  First of all, you can not "shrink" RAID arrays on RAID controllers, use less or use less disk space.

  Second:

  • Windows cannot use a 'disc' plus 2 TB unless it is converted to a GPT disk.
  • Windows cannot start a GPT 'disc' unless it is installed on the active UEFI system.

  If the startup mode is set to BIOS, you're stuck - you will need to reinstall Windows with active UEFI or change the RAID configurations.

• Color text and size can be changed using the commenting tools

  Hello, I have problems by changing the color of the text and the size of the comments when using the commenting tools.  I used to be able to do this by placing the cursor over the text and by opening the text properties bar, but the text properties bar has ceased to appear even when you select Crl + E.  When you use a text box, I can get the properties of the text box bar pop up; then I pass the text inside the text box and the text properties bar, however, I am not able to adjust the color, size and type of police.  Help? The text parameter might have accidentally set to default?  If so, that is editable?

• Update is not possible Muse - does "system memory" or "disk use" for update?

  Hello. I think that my computer is on "full".

  I want to update to Muse, but can't.

  Is it because I have a lot of things on my computer?

  If so, what is the difference between "system memory" and "disk use"? Where is the update of Muse will be "stored", system memory or disk usage?

  Thank you.

  

  Thank you, Brad.

  I discovered that my operating system is old.

  When I try and update the Mac operating system, it misfires and does not want to download past about 2 GB (have downloaded real fast, pretty much stopped download spent 2.25 GB). Do you think that my computer is old or not powerful enough for the new operating system to download from Mac?

  I appreciate the help.

• Not being able to use the commenting tools in Android App.

  So, I did abit of research regarding my dilemma. I wanted to just a solid understanding of my research findings.

  His my situation, my office im player capable to add Post-it notes and highlight text. When I open the same PDF file through the app Android, Im not supposed to. I get a message saying "this tool is not available because of the security settings of documents".

  My research ive concluded that it is the whole PDF encryption that is not allowing me to use the commenting tools in the Android app. Is this correct?

  Is there a way around this side just do it on my desktop/laptop computer?

  Hi Yooooda-man

  Acrobat Reader mobile products (for iOS, Android, Windows Phone) have the known limit where the changes cannot be saved in encrypted PDF documents.  As a result, users are not able to make changes (addition of comments/annotations or forms) for encrypted PDF documents.

  If you created the PDF file or if you know the password, you can remove the Security document and settings of restriction of the PDF on your desktop, so you can use it on your Android app.

  Kind regards

• No reason NOT to use ESXi 4.0?

  I have vSphere Update Manager license, so I like 4.0 because of the GUI host update utility.

  4.1 it is all CLI and rather heavy (download all the zippers, transfer to the data store and makes the adjustment).

  Is there a reason NOT to use ESXi 4.0?

  Hello

  There is no reason NOT to use ESXi 4.0

  This will be always supported until at least 2014-2016

  Having said that there are attribute benefits of performance in version 4.1 and a fortiori in vSphere 5

  Upgrading form 4.0 to 4.1 using the command line is really not that complicated, and I encourage you to make the effort to at least ver 4.1

  concerning

  Please allow points if you find this useful or correct

• How to continue using ESXi 4.1 in free mode?

  Well, I need to know how to continue to use ESXi 4.1 in free mode.

  I installed ESXi 4.1 vSphere and installed time-limited evaluation license.

  Now that the trial license has expired, how to return to the free license?

  I tried this: go to license Features, Edit, then "Assign an existing license key for this host" and chose "evaluation Mode...". (Not LicenseKey) "but he said I'm not a license.

  So, how can I continue using ESXi 4.1 in free mode after the use of time-limited evaluation license that has now expired?

  A detailed explanation of a person who has really, actually used an evaluation license and has successfully passed regularly in fr. old mode under license will be more appropriate.

  Thanks in advance.

  Once you have taken of / found your license free key just use the console vsphere and go to configuration | license and enter the key.

• Can I switch from MX7 to CF 9 new hard disk using the MX7 serial numbers

  Hi all

  I want to install the version upgrade to coldfusion 9 on a new server / hard disk, using the serial number of MX7, that has been uninstalled.

  Is this possible?  Potential complications?

  I can't disable MX7 because this no longer exists.

  Mike

  Yes, when you enter the CF9 license, the installer will say 'it of a license upgrade, please provide the original of his licence' and give you another form to your CF7 license.  If she likes these two licenses, you're good to go.
