Two POS devices back up the same virtual machines

Hello

So my goal is to have weekly backups to a unit of POS, and monthly backups go to another device of POS, on a separate data store.  I'm stuck on VDP v5.1.1 because since I can not upgrade my vCenters yet.  What I'm trying to do, is to protect my backups to a store of data or corruption VDP OS - which have already occurred in the past.

My question is, I'll be able to simply deploy a 2nd POS device and tell it to save the same virtual machines that are already underway by the 1st POS device?  I wonder what that complications would be, i.e. If the 2nd POS only runs a monthly backup, it will be smart enough get all changes since the last monthly backup or he'll come CBT files since the last daily backup of the 1st POS device?

Thank you!

You can make backups in this way with 2 POS devices and CBT is treated properly. Monthly backup will take more time because of the higher number of changes. Look at the time of the departure of the backups, they will take parallel steps.

  • With the help of two different devices for VDR to save the same virtual machines

    Hello

    I have VDR backup right now most of my virtual machines. I'm experimenting with some recovery scenarios disaster using VDR. I want to set up a new device, backup virtual machines themselves, but with a destination off. My question is, it would cause problems to have two different devices, backup the same virtual machines?

    I'm asking this is because I was looking at the notes of recent VMworld session on VDR and he says, regarding a troubleshooting scenario in which you must create a new device in addition to your current device, both devices back up the same virtual machines do not.

    If it is dangerous to do so because of the likelihood that two devices can save the same virtual machines at the same time, I could schedule the backup windows at different times to avoid this problem.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    I create a second local camera vDR and vDR distance and test it against a test VM. The vDR devices will have their own CBT files for each virtual computer, so they should be able to work together, but I would like to go through tests to see how they work well on the WAN. Make sure that you can transfer enough data to host daily data change.

  • Is it possible to transfer everything to a virtual hard disk that is smaller on a virtual hard disk that is larger in VMWare Workstation, using the same virtual machine?

    Hello

    I was wondering if it is possible to transfer everything to a virtual hard disk that is smaller on a virtual hard disk that is larger in VMWare Workstation, using the same virtual machine? In the affirmative, please could someone advise me on how to do it. Also utility management and disk transfer can be used in virtual machines to do this?

    Thank you very much

    Tim Auluck

    I'm not sure what exactly you are asking. Can you please clarify!

    Basically you can resize a virtual drive or add a second virtual disk to a virtual machine and transfer/copy files. You can also resize the virtual disk using VMware Converter for example.

  • Can I deploy the same virtual machine to VMWare Player running of several PCs without network problems

    Hi all

    I am a newbie so please forgive if this is a stupid question...

    Can I deploy the same virtual machine (XP Pro), with the same machine name and the same GUID for several machines on a network without going through issues such as errors of names duplicate etc. Or will I sysprep prior to deployment.  If so, is there an easier way to do it?

    Not sure if this is important, but I need to use Bridged networking due to problems with our personal firewall.

    You will need to deal with the dupe GUID. Sysprep is a method.

  • Using the same virtual machine on two macs, but not at the same time

    Hello

    I searched this site and the Internet in general, but I couldn't find an answer to this question, so my apologies if this is requested before and if so, please point me to the answer.

    I have an iMac with Bootcamp with Windows 7 Professional x 64 partition and everything works fine.

    I would like to install 6 Fusion and create a virtual machine from the Bootcamp partition, try it for a while and then delete the Bootcamp partition. I found a complete documentation about this and I should be able to do this without any problems, except perhaps for the reactivation of Windows.

    Now the question: since I move sometimes, I would like to be able to move this virtual machine on a Macbook Pro, so I must not move file, sync, etc., and the virtual machine will not at the same time. I read that you use Move so the address UUID and Mac do not change, but I don't know if this applies to move the virtual machine to another computer. If my is:

    (1) is it possible?

    (2) what I have to buy a second copy of Fusion 6 or there is a player that will allow me to run the virtual machine on the macbook?

    Thank you

    Luciano

    I have experimented with a Windows 7 VM, copied (but I have 2 licenses of retail sales) a mini Mac Core 2 Duo to a Core i7 MacBook Pro retina: well, despite the different processor, he did not ask a reactivation, strangely, even after a few resets. Windows 7 so, seems at least to be quite "tolerant", on this front.

  • Local and remote to the same virtual machine replication?

    Is it possible to configure replication for a virtual machine to replicate locally and remotely?

    For example:

    ServerA is my server I need to replicate.

    I set up replication for this VM ServerA to storage replicated in the same site (local)

    I opened the replication again for ServerA VM and I can only see/manage this replication.

    I would like to reproduce ServerA VM offisite in a remote cluster of VCenter for DR purposes.


    Is this possible? What I am doing wrong?

    same source VM cannot be replicated on the two sites with vSphere replication targets.

    If you use replication level storage table between the source to the target and the second replication, you use the replication of vSphere, it would be a different story.

  • Different drag / drop behavior of the mouse on different users on the same virtual machine Windows 10 Pro accounts

    I just upgraded to 8.1 on Mac OS X 10.11.3 Fusion "El Capitan" on a new iMac 27-inch 5K retina. The guest operating system is a new virtual machine Windows 10 Pro. I have two user accounts on the virtual machine, my local administrator account and another account local standard user. When I am logged into my account, I am able to drag and drop files to and from the guest to the normally Mac OS. As the mouse moves freely between the guest OS and the Mac. However, when I connect using the standard other account, I can't drag - move to and from the guest for the Mac OS. Also once I click into the virtual machine the mouse movement is limited to the virtual machine until I have press the buttons on the Mac to free the movement of the mouse to the Mac. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the vmware tools but the same behavior persists. Any ideas on a solution and why these two users accounts would act differently?

    Just phone with the help of VMware. They solved the problem in uninstalling and reinstalling VMware tools and change the following VMware Fusion preferences-> preferences-> General-> Gaming: to 'Never mouse optimize for games '. It has been set to 'always optimize the mouse for games '.  After that drag & drop, mouse movement works smoothly and perfectly now. Thank you VMware support!

  • 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

  • Simultaneous use of the vmscript call on the same virtual machine.

    I'm trying to call vmscript allows you to execute commands on a virtual machine. Several applications can come to the computer virtual target (where the script is executed) from different sources. When I make a call at the same time, it works very well.

    However, when I make simultaneous calls to invoke vmscript to run a command on a remote computer, only one runs and others fail with the following error.

    23/12/2013-14:52:21 Invoke-VMScript operation is not allowed in the current state.

    23/12/2013-14:52:21 Invoke-VMScript error occurred while running script on the guest in "v7012-s1-arr1" VM operating system Cannot find script interpreter "Bat" in one of the spaces provided.

    You probably don't have enough permissions to execute the command in the comments.

    Even if the error mentions privileges, I'm sure that it is not only the privilege as it works if I run commans an establishment at the time.

    Assuming that invoke vmscript supports concurrency - y at - it target configurations I need to put on the virtual machine to allow the operation?

    As far as I know, the mechanism that uses Invoke-VMScript cmdlet, does not have parallel calls.

    As a bypass, you could use a try - construction of wrestling to synchronize different calls.

  • Multiple subnet on the same virtual machine

    Dear people,

    I have a virtual machine with 2 NIC cards. A NETWORK adapter with the IP of the server VLAN assigned with gateway. Second NETWORK card with the address IP of the VLAN without any IP in the heart rate. Now a strange problem occurred as follows:

    -server communication of VLAN with its gateway was OK before adding the 2nd NIC

    -Server VLAN lost communication with its gateway after I added 2 NIC

    -J' removed the 2nd NIC still not able to communicate with the gateway

    -J' removed 1 NIC and add the new NETWORK adapter, now his ping

    -Now, even after I tried to add the 2nd NIC problem persists as mentioned in step 2

    Please help me identify this problem.

    Thank you

    Hari.

    Hello

    It could be network connectivity.

    After assigning the NIC2 to the virtual machine, make sure you do not assign the default gateway so that just try disabling the NETWORK adapter, allowing it once again, once I have this problem and the same has been resolved.

  • You can install the server connection and security on the same virtual machine Server?

    I was looking around and found an old post that says that you could do.

    I tried the documentation view 5 but not a lot of luck there.

    If the deployment is small say 20 users view total.

    Could install you the connection and security on the same VM Server?   W2K8R2 64-bit?

    I certainly understand some of the security risks.

    TIA

    Marc Alumbaugh says:

    Any other ideas?

    No other ideas, but we have should stick to previous ideas and continue to work through them. You make progress in this analysis - continue! When it is correctly configured, you have configured the firewall/proxy etc don't not to block PCoIP and that you use at least seen 4.6 on the Client and the server, it does not work.

    It always seems that there's something blocking PCoIP in your environment - where the black screen.

    So when 'PCoIP external URL' on the login server is defined on InternalIP:4172, your View on the internal network Client connects fine. If you run Wiresahrk on your connection to the server to capture the connections, you will see a connection HTTPS turns on TCP 443. Then when you select a pool of offices you will see a PCoIP connection come in. It comes to 4172 TCP from the customer to the login server, then UDP 4172 also from the Client to the server connection as well as UDP 4172 in reverse. For this reverse part, the source UDP port will be 4172 and corresponds to the destination UDP port source on the incoming UDP packets. Check that this is the case. This will prove that the login server is gateway your PCoIP correctly.

    So far so good.

    Then, you switch to your remote Client to view from on the Internet. To do this, you assign the URL of the "external" ExternalIP:4172 PCoIP. Note that you don't need to restart the login server for this to take effect. It takes effect immediately. This IP address will be the public IP address which will probably through a NAT/firewall to access your connection to the server. You can start by checking that the IP address is correct using to connect to the server address when you satrt the customer to view. When you use the same IP address to the Client and through the authentication step, it will prove that it is set up correctly in terms of Routing/NAT etc. Then follow with Wireshark on the login server and observe what happens when you select a pool of virtual offices and get the black screen. You should see the same activity PCoIP on your login server model as in the case of internal test (i.e. starting with the incoming TCP connection on port 4172). View Client will use the ExternalIP address that you specified in the "URL external PCoIP ' to establish the PCoIP connection to connect to the server. So if you don't see this com 4172 TCP on the login server, or you do not see the packets UDP 4172 then something is blocking. This is usually caused by a firewall or a proxy blocking PCoIP.

    If this is the case and you do not see these packets to connect to the server, then run Wireshark on the Windows Client to view and see if you can see 4172 TCP and/or UDP sent to this ExternalIP 4172. If Yes, then you know that something (such as a firewall or proxy) between the Customer View and the view connection server it blocks.

    Let us know what it was.

    Hope it will be useful.

    How to use several devices iPhone, iPad or iPod with a computer

    Using more an iDevice on the same computer

    This mainly applies to couples who add another device and don't want their electronic mail, messages, etc. being duplicated on both devices. To start reading: How to use several iPhone, iPad or iPod devices with one computer. You must create a login separate Apple and password for anyone who will use the new iDevice. See Apple - my Apple ID and frequently asked questions about the Apple ID. The easiest way is to do it on the computer using iTunes: iTunes - how to set up an Apple ID iTunes.

    On the computer, create a new user account for the person with the new iDevice. This is the user account always uses this person. He or she will no longer use the other user account. This way the person will have a separate iTunes library. Note When finished, do not 'share' apps under a single Apple ID. Each of you must buy your own applications under your own Apple ID. When you decide to divide like this you will have to buy new applications they want to use.

    First, transfer the new devices to a new account as well as all your data.  Save pictures of flow picture you want to keep for your camera (unless they are already in the camera roll) by opening your Photos app, tap Albums icon at the bottom. Now press the album My Photo Stream; Press Select; tap the photo you want to select. tap the share (box with the face up arrow) in the lower left corner icon; in the film, and then click Save.

    If you synchronize notes with iCloud, you want to keep, you must open each of your notes and email it to yourself. Later, you can copy and paste the text into the new notes created in your new account.

    Tap Settings > iCloud > remove account (removes it only from this device, not iCloud; the person who maintains the current account is not affected) provide the password to disable find my phone and choose to keep on my iDevice when prompted.  Sign in with another Apple ID to create your new account. Choose merge to download your data.

  • IS the UUID and device ID is the same?

    Dear team,

    Ask you to help me with the following queries?

    Q1:-UUID and device Id is the same?

    Q2:-peripheral Id comes from storage array to a LUN?

    Q3:-is the UUID provided by an ESX Server, then this ESX Server to identify this LUN?

    Q4 :-UUID is also called or refers signature ESX?

    Concerning

    Mr. VMware.

    Hello

    in general, the signature should not change in a scenario you desrcibed.

    The ESX host allows you to create a data store VMFS on this LUN collects information provided by the table.

    This information will be used to generate a signature (the process itself is still not published by VMware).

    The signature itself is stored in the VMFS data store and is always used when the Renumeriser SCSI operations.

    Whenever an ESX Server perform a reboot or rescan operation, the following procedure will be used (high level).

    The ESX Server will

    • analyze the SCSI bus and collects information for SCSI on any device seen
    • Search for an existing partition table and the types of known partitions
    • for each VMFS data store found it will read the signature
    • checks if the signature matches with SCSI information
      • matches, continue to accumulate the VMFS datastore
      • does not, this VMFS datastore is not mounted automatically because it is identified as an "instant" feature

    So you could access easily other ESX servers on this device when each ESX Server does not see the device with the same SCSI information.

    As a best practice, each server ESX shoud see such device shared with the same LUN ID.

    The modern paintings are capable of presenting storage devices with different LUN ID in an initiator (HBA) basis.

    Another thing to keep in mind that ports in frontend used table use the same Port SCSI/flag settings, but these indicators may differ between vendors.

    If these two basic requirements are met, you will be able to share the easy storage device between multiple ESX servers.

    Kind regards
