Unable to access vCloud Director

• Cannot access vCloud Director VM console

  Hello

  We´re in the face of a very strange problem when you try to access a console virtual machine via the vCloud Director 5.6 Web Portal.

  Let me describe the environment:

  1 - 2 vCloud Director cells;

  2. load balancer 1;

  3 - 1 VIP for the proxy console; 1 VIP for the web portal;

  4 - certificate of CA-signed 1 with wildcard characters (*. < domain >) instead of certificates 2 ordinary host (http. < domain > and consoleproxy. < domain >).

  5 - the following procedure was used to create the keystore of Java and to be able to import the certificate even twice (each time with a different alias):

  OpenSSL pkcs12 - in /keystore/ < company > .pfx-out /keystore/ < company > .pem

  OpenSSL pkcs12-export - in /keystore/ < company > .pem-inkey /keystore/ < company > .key-out _http.p12 /keystore/ < company > - name "http".

  OpenSSL pkcs12-export - in /keystore/ < company > .pem-inkey /keystore/ < company > .key-out _console.p12 /keystore/ < company > - name 'consoleproxy '.

  keytool - v - importkeystore - srckeystore /keystore/ < company > _console.p12 - srcstoretype PKCS12 - destkeystore /keystore/ < company > .ks - deststoretype JCEKS

  keytool - v - importkeystore - srckeystore /keystore/ < company > _http.p12 - srcstoretype PKCS12 - destkeystore /keystore/ < company > .ks - deststoretype JCEKS

  6 race "keytool-list - keystore /keystore/ < company > .ks - stores JCEKS" shows two aliases in the keystore.

  7 - vCD installer not to complaint about it.

  8 - certificate is loaded correctly when accessing the web portal

  Now the question:

  1 - the gate opens as it should;

  2. each type of action is possible and works very well;

  3. when we open a VM console for the first time, it opens normally;

  4. If we close it and try to reopen, or if we try to open a second console, it won´t open;

  5 - according to the browser:

  5.1 - console remains black. State begins to 'connection '. Changes to "Offline" after a short time;

  5.2 - console remains empty. Status hangs on "Loading"; He sometimes goes to "disconnected";

  6. If restart us the two cells, it begins around (able to open the first console, cannot open the rest);

  7. same behavior if the access using the VIP (with load balancing) or directly (using the internal IP address of cells).

  I ve seen some issues with what seemed like the same problem but no conclusive answer.

  Any help on this would be appreciated.

  Thank you very much.

  The fixed.

  1 - upgrade of vCD 5.6.3 to 5.6.4.

  2 - something with virtual machines, we had deployed for testing. We have erased their and the new have no behavior.

• Could not access vCloud Director with IE

  Hi, I installed vCloud Director 1.5 on my CentOS 6.3 in my lab. I used a Microsoft SQL database. During installation, I tried to set all the parts correctly. Everything was fine and I can launch my Internet Explorer browser and connect to the vCloud Director. I set it up without any problems. I run my lab on vmware wrokstation 8. I closed the CentOS down and all my virtual machines. The next day when I started my VMs and tried to connect to vCloud Director whit IE browser I could not. According to KB: 2005819 my IE is 32 bit, I have JRE and Adobe Flash Player.

  Hello

  I have attached the file vmware-vcd-support to this post and log files

  Please provide the logs.

  There is an error in the file which indicates what could be the problem. I will quote the message at the end of this post in case anyone is looking for a solution to a similar problem in the future.

  This error indicates that the encryption information in the configuration file of this cell does not match the information that was used to configure (and encrypt the information contained in) your database. For example, when the cell tries to decrypt the information contained in the database, the encryption algorithm fails (which is where the strange sounding "javax.crypto.BadPaddingException: receipt final block not well padded ' error message comes of).

  It is most frequently observed in an environment of several cell when you do not use the response.properties file when you run/opt/vmware/vcloud-director/bin/configure on additional cells. The correct procedure to follow for vCD 1.5 is documented in the 'Installation software vCloud Director on other servers' section on page 31 of the installation and Configuration Guide.

  However, in your case, I suspect the problem that we see here is actually the result of your attempts to debug what was your original problem. When you have installed vCD for the first time, you have run/opt/vmware/vcloud-director/bin/configure (or said 'yes' to a prompt end installation that is in order) which produces an encryption key used to encrypt the different pieces of information in your database. After meeting the initial error, looks like you uninstalled vCD system and re-installed. If you don't have keep the encryption key or empty the database when you do, the second run/opt/vmware/vcloud-director/bin/configure would have generated a different encryption key, which does not allow to read the information stored in the database by the first system.

  At this point, you have two options. If you have the contents of the directory/opt/vmware/vcloud-director/etc of the first installation, you can use those to recover the encryption key and configure the current installation to use this value. If you do not, you can completely clear the database (for example by delete and recreate) and re - run/opt/vmware/vcloud-director/bin/configure which will create a fresh database schema, encryption of sensitive data (new) with the current encryption key. When you do that, you would be able to start the cell (but you can still run in what was your original question).

  Once you are able to start your cell, a person must be able to help debug your problem with IE (assuming that it has not been resolved by the relocation process).

• Unable to get Web 5.5 console vcloud Director?

  Hi all

  I am unable to get vcloud Director console, I configured successfully and the ping command console and http proxy ip addresses. Manager VSheild successfully configured. The certificates are generated. Please let us know what is the problem and what is the solution for this?

  I managed to break, I just had to stop the firewall services, I just run the command service iptables stop, everything was fine, I got the console.

• Unable to see models with vCloud Director

  Hi all

  I use vCloud Director 1.5. and have created a few models in the vSphere.However when I try to import models of vSphere to vCloud, I am unable to view the created models. Please tell us what I could hurt.

  In addition, someone has user FAQ for vCloud director, if so, please let us know.

  Convert virtual computer models, then you should be able to view them to VCD using the vSphere import option.

• Unable to prepare the host to Vcloud Director

  Hi all

  Hope you guys can help me. I try to install the track of vcloud Director version, and I got most of this work. The problem I have now is that I cannot prepare a host. I installing the server in a cluster, I have no shared but only storage using local disks (wondering if this isn't the problem). I added my vcenter server, which is a virtual machine on a host, but I'm still unable to activate the host for its use.

  I read somewhere on the forums that it must be in maintenance mode, but it does not work. In fact if I do this, the host gets a Red Cross in the available column. On the only host I get an error saying connection refused. The other, they say just can't prepare host.

  Any help would be welcome.

  KettieKop

  You need to meet the prerequisites first, specifically to have active DRS.  For the active DRS on the Cluster of hosts in vCenter, for the DRS, you need to have more than one ESX host AND the shared storage.

  Shared storage is a requirement for vMotion (as the DRS is on your virtual machines for load balancing)

  Several hosts is necessary to allow pools of resources (you need a place to load their balance)

  Once you meet the requirements, then you should be able to view the ESX host, when you try to prepare them for vCloud Director.

  Best regards

• Unable to access directories after installing SP2

  I just downloaded and installed the Vista SP2.  Amongs other things, she changed completely the power settings for my laptop, but it's fixable.  What has blocked me is the fact that in Windows Explorer (or any name you people have changed, but I hope you know what I mean), I am is no longer allowed access to directories (or folders, or whatever you call them now) I have BEFORE in installed SP2.  I did all attempts to change the permissions, but the system won't let me (as an administrator) to do this. Explorer Windows sees the direcftory, but the monologue box tells me that the directory "... is not accessible." and "access denied."  This happened with the Windows required file 'my documents '.  When I try to change the permissions 'sharing' by "Everyone" I get the less-than-useful message that «...» An error occurred when trying to share Application data (it is an example). Access is denied.  The shared resource was not created at this time. »

  How can I go to get access to them now?  And something that you should ask yourself - why do you have designed an "improvement" that does this?

  Hi Evan,

  I see you found the access denied error when you try to access the documents"" folder. I will suggest you to do a system restore to the date when Sp2 has been installed, and if in case you want to install Sp2 then you can try downloading the Sp2 standalone package and install in safe mode with disabled security software.

  Here is the link for the standalone pack:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=a4dd31d5-F907-4406-9012-a5c3199ea2b3&displaylang=en

  Please try this step and I would like to know the result.

• Unable to integrate with vCloud Director - data collection of computing resources is not

  Hello

  We are trying to integrate vCloud Director vCAC in vain.

  In short.

  vCD

  -VC organization - booking pool

  When you perform data collection in the calculation of the resources, it failed with the error.

  "Workflow"vCloudInventory"failed with the following exception: object reference not set to an instance of an object."

  Stack trace

  "at DynamicOps.VCloudModel.Interface.VCloudManagementServices.GetOrgVdcNetworks (String vdcId) at DynamicOps.VCloudModel.Activities.VCloudGetOrgVdcNetworks.Execute (CodeActivityContext context) at System.Activities.CodeActivity.InternalExecute (ActivityInstance, executor, BookmarkManager bookmarkManager ActivityExecutor instance) to System.Activities.Runtime.ActivityExecutor.ExecuteActivityWorkItem.ExecuteBody (ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager bookmarkManager, location resultLocation).

  Help, please.

  Thank you very much

  Your OrgVDC have a stray or not network?  There is a known issue that there must be at least a valid network on the OrgVDC you want to manage.  This could break the data collection for other organizations, so if there is a 'test' organization, it would be better to go to the resources page of calculation under the company administrator and delete all these management resources.

  This issue has been registered and should be fixed in the next version.

• vCloud Director - SVMOTION ERROR

  When I try to SVMotion a virtual machine. I get the error "this virtual machine is managed by vcloud Director solution.» It is not recommended to edit it directly. Instead, use the management console.

  The virtual machine is turned off in State

  Please suggest how to SVMOTION a virtual computer managed by vCLOUD Director

  Hello

  Even if it's a warning, we can migrate the virtual machine as long as under conditions are checked.

  Note: migrate through Storage vMotion is possible, but there are several caveats.

  • Make sure that the new data stores have the correct storage policy and are assigned to the correct hosts. There is no vCloud check engine steering investment using this method and it can cause serious problems if you do it right.
  • This is not recommended for virtual machines configured quickly as they are inflated to the full clones.
  • It is not possible for VAAI quickly put into service of the virtual machines being unable to Storage vMotion them vSphere.
  • Balancing of virtual machines on data warehouses is entirely manual.

• vCloud connector - cannot copy VAPP vCloud Director to vSphere

  Evening,

  Try to copy a paralytic to vCloud Director on vCenter 5.5 5.6 using vCloud connector 2.7.

  The scenario:

  -vCloud Director fully configured with one Org, an Org vDC and a catalog.

  -The catalog is entirely filled, shared and published.

  -Org and catalog are configured to allow the publication to external organizations;

  -vCenter and vCloud Director have been added to vCloud connector via vSphere Client plug-ins;

  -vCloud plug connector is able to see the entire structures of vSphere and vCD (org records, catalogs, vApps, models, etc.).

  Reproduce the error:

  -Using the vSphere Client, click on the Org vCD;

  -Go to the tab vApps.

  -Select a VAPP off engine;

  -Click on copy.

  -Select Catalog (it is marked as shared and, curiously, unpublished);

  -Select vCenter as the target;

  -Select the clusters, folders, data store, formatting the drive and so on;

  -Power On TIME after deploying (or not, does not matter);

  -Validate (managed);

  -Finishing.

  Task starts and fails in a minute (or less) with the following message:

  "Export OVF has failed. Failure when copying data to the clouds: https://< vcloud_director_fqdn >. Reason: [0e65fbc1-4e04-4924-ae06-c4377dfc97af] there is no catalog in the organization. »

  Looks as vCloud connector, for some reason, is unable to locate the catalog during deployment (although it may be perfectly visible during the Copy Wizard and in his inventory).

  I tried searching for it and can't find anything similar to this error.

  Maybe it s a vCD configuration error, but how would be? I ve already selected all types of option to allow editing of catalogue and sharing, and nothing has changed.

  I published also successfully catalog VCDs to vCloud connector content library, so nothing else makes sense to me.

  Solved.

  Created a new catalog and IS NOT published. Used for the copy. Went well.

• vCloud Director page does not open.

  Hi all

  Today I faced a strange problem in my vcloud Director. all of a sudden all the URLs for org and admin home page of vcloud stopped.

  I tried to search in google and find a few KB, but they are not useful. As below.

  VMware KB: Access to the URL of the organization fails with the browser error: error 404 not found
  
  I have tried different browsers and restarted my vcloud server but nothing helped. Any help or idea please.

  Thank you

  vCloud newspapers are not specific to the problem. I checked and found the watchdog .log and found that the server is not the storage space. in any case, I'd drive and his works fine and went smoothly. .

  Thanks for your help. Have a nice day everyone.

• vCloud Director or vRealize Automation?

  Hello

  I was hoping I could get some advice regarding the choice between vCloud Director and vRealize Automation. We have set up a test environment for vCloud Director however read some articles, it seems that it is a product that reaches the end of life for businesses, but not for service providers.

  So my question is a service provider should us be implementation vCloud Director or vRealize Automation? We do not want to be in a position to migrate off vCloud in a year.

  Any advice would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Chris

  I can't make any kind of recommendation between the two, because I don't know what you want to do with the products.

  Addressing the availability of the product and the support of it:

  vCloud Director just won't be available to independently purchase and withdrew the license of the Suite from 6.x.  You must purchase the license 5.x to get it (assuming that it is available)... This aspect, if not suite your needs right now until mid-2017 (when vCloud will end support for users of the company).  From 2017, you have to make a decision as to what will replace vCloud or continue to use vCloud Director, even if we will not offer support for it.

  VRealize Automation will meet your needs?  I do not know without knowing your use case and requirements... that is for discussion of a VMware sales representative.

  Apart from all this: VSPP is the VMware service provider program.  A version of vCloud Director will exist for them, but it is precisely for them (members of the VSPP program).  Unless you work for a member of the VSPP program, the statements above concerning vCloud Director are what you think.

  If you are Member VSPP, vCloud Director for the providers of services (5.6.x) is available as the direct vcloud Director 5.5.x successor.  Then by all means we will continue to support these versions, and it can be used to manage resources like a Cloud provider.

  I had a number of people say they are service providers, which is very beautiful.  Be a VSPP means being in a specific program of VMware, which gives access to certain things (which AFAIK is vCloud for Service providers).

  I'm not trying to be harsh or terse here, but I want to just make sure we do differentiation key on what is available to whom and how.

  My environment: vCloud Director 5.5.1.1654672

  ESXi 5.1.0 1065491

  vCenter 5.5.0 1623101

  
  I want to prepare a new host in our vCloud cluster, but I only had errors:

  "host cannot be prepaired":

  com.vmware.ssdc.util.LMException: com.vmware.ssdc.library.vim.SvcConnectionException:

  com.vmware.ssdc.util.LMException: com.vmware.ssdc.library.vim.SvcConnectionException:

  com.vmware.ssdc.library.vim.SvcConnectionException:

  com.vmware.ssdc.library.vim.SvcConnectionException

  all with the error "unable to connect to vcenter Server.

  org.apache.http.conn.HttpHostConnectException: connection to https://vcloudserver refused

  -Connection to https://vcloudserver refused

  -Connection has expired

  I checked the dns resolution (all directions, network connectivity (ping, telnet,...), vshield status etc...)

  I found the Thread problem preparing hosts , but is not a solution for me.

  Anyone have any idea?

  I solved my problem - it was a firewall issue.

  vCloud Director coud not connect to the esxi host because ports were blocked.

  You deploy the vCloud Director device?

  The key will be in your MyVMware account that you used to sign up for the trial version.

• External network to Vcloud Director.

  Hello

  Why are external network created in the Vcloud directory (I read that it is used to connect Vcloud Director to the outside world). What exactly will be the outside world, and if I don't want to connect the vcloud Director to any other network, I can't ignore the creation of the external network?

  Kind regards

  Yes, it's fine.  If you want a completely encapsulated environment, you cannot use SSH/RDP to access systems.  You must use the VMRC for access, and you will need to install the software of the ISO in the catalog.

  It can be limiting, but works well for a completely confined environment.
