  Network configuration / routing / two network interface cards / NAT - leased / dedicated Dell R210 running VMware ESXi 5.1.0 build-799733

  Hello

  I'm trying to understand how to configure a dedicated server of Dell R210 rented running VMware ESXi 5.1.0 build-799733

  This dedicated server is rented www.online.net and sits somewhere in France. One of its network adapters have an IP public 62.210.177.20x. The other NIC is here, but I do not understand how it is configured. According to the www.online.net portal, the other NETWORK card has or should have an IP 10.90.116.20x. And I am obviously set up is to have some virtual machines running and be able to access the Internet. I have access to the console of the server Dell through iDRAC and since I could see, one of the network adapters in the IP is 62.210.177.20x defined, and the other has been shown out of service. I managed to make it appear the other interface but I cannot find anywhere how to assign the IP address 10.90.116.20x to this 2^nd network adapter. But then again I don't even know if I should or if I need to assing a IP address to this 2^nd network adapter. What is the cable connected even for this 2^nd NIC? I do not know. Should it be - I'm not either. I don't know French and manuals/instructions on www.online.net are in French. I can try an online translator, but I don't think that what I'm looking for is explained. How do I get this set up? I have to do something about the ESXi on the server console? This interface 2^nd should be in place, or it must be down as if it was originally? Yesterday after watching someone videos on YouTube, I added the second virtual switch and moved the virtual hosts of this switch 2 and he entrusted the 2^nd NIC. But that 2^nd NIC had a red X next to it probably indicating that it was disconnected the 2^nd form virtual switch. Today and now I have managed to access the ESXi console server through iDRAC, I bring the 2^nd NIC, and now both network adapters are assigned to the virtual switch 1^st . But I think that a NIC should be attributed to a single switch and the other card NETWORK on the 2^nd switch. I'm just a desktop guy with enough knowledge to be dangerous J if you / someone put in steps how and where to set them up it... PLEASE

  Thanks in advance

  Network configuration

  • VMware vSphere Hypervisor is an "operating system" for pure virtualization and support NAT or routing. Therefore, only a real bridge configuration can be used.
  • To use a subnet additional IP must be configured as a router VM.

  If I understand the above, I need to show some VM and set up as a router? If the virtual machine that will act as a router must have two network interfaces, where it is connected to a switch and the other to the other switch network card. Am I do? The YouTube video that suggested, but I thought that maybe / somehow ESXi can route packets between the two network cards, but from what I read, ESXi can route packets. Do I need to order an additional / extra / 2nd IPv4 address so that it can be assigned to the interface of the router?

• Unable to update/install esxi HP 5.1 build 799733

  Currently installed: Esxi HP 5.0 build. on ML 350 p Gen 8 2xIntel 2 GHz CPU E5-2650 136 Gib memory

  Updated latest firmware HP: HP_Service_Pack_for_Proliant_2012.10.0 - 0_713293 - 001_spp_2012.10.0 - SPP2012100.2012_1005.37.iso

  Unfortaunately, because no network card cannot be detected, the ESXi will not start.

  See screenshot and film.

  You must use the custom HP ESXi ISO 5.1 or offline Bundle to do the upgrade, because vanilla VMware ISO does not include the necessary NETWORK card drivers. Download here:

• HP Proliant ESXi 5.1 build - 799733 build id need to be patched

  Hi team,

  I just checked on my server has built no 799733, and there are many cirats for 2012 for the patches. I mainly worked on new installations of ESXi. It's the first time I try picture embedded custom patch, can someone help me with this? How can I check the patches for this server? and any other procedure for these images? Thank you very much.

  You use the Update Manager? In any case, I noticed that you run the 5.1 GA ESXi and you can fix/upgrade using different ways, for example, to import the new custom HP ISO for the 5.1 version of ESXi Update 2 and/or add the repository of CV to your manager to update like this: http://www.ivobeerens.nl/2012/07/17/add-hp-drivers-vib-to-vmware-update-manager-vum/

• How can I update the SNMP syslocation on blades ESXi

  I am running VMkernel 5.0.0 #1 SMP Release build-469512, August 18, 2011 18:32:24 unknown x86_64

  I put the < sysLocation > < / sysLocation > and < sysContact > < / sysContact > in the file /etc/vmware/snmp.xml of cat.

  I tried to start rebooting services.sh but blade stop and do a snmpget I always show the syslocation and syscontact as "not defined".

  Any help is appreciated.

  Snmp system name space was not available on:

  VMkernel localhost.vcaplab.local 5.0.0 #1 SMP Release build-914586, November 18, 2012 1

  However, it was available on:

  VMkernel localhost.vcaplab.local 5.1.0 #1 SMP Release build-799733, August 1, 2012 20:03 x86_64 GNU/Linux

  So, if you really want this setting, you need an update.

• VMWARE ESXI 5. 1 build

  Hi all

  I'm on Vsphere 5.1.0 Build 799733

  can someone advise what new patches I have to apply to the ESXI?

  One goal of test not an ESXI production!

  Yes, this can happen. Check the KB http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1012514 which explains:

  "Thus, installing ESX may have different components to different numbers, depending on patch bundles have been implemented."

  On it, you have 3 ways to know the build numbers and applied patches. Your patch should be displayed on the outputs esxupdate. You don't have to worry on this subject, is quite normal.

• disconnect hosts to vCenter Server 5.1.0 Build 947673 and appear as does not not after 45 seconds (always)

  I have a very strange installation, it has been stable for 6 months, I don't know if it's conciendence after the implementation of POS, but now after 45 seconds, the hosts to build 799733 ESXi 5.1.0 disconnect from vCenter Server 5.1.0 build 947673 and appear as does not.

  I can right-click on each host and deliver a Connect and servers are re-connected and then after 45 seconds, appear as the not responding again.

  The vCenter is a virtual machine, on the cluster of two hosts, use VMXNET3 interface, fully patched.

  Since the vCenter server at the time of her disconnects or does not, I do not see timeouts ping to vCenter VM guests hosts, I can also connect directly to the ESXi servers with vSphere Client and there, no problem, I still connected.

  DNS is correct, default gateway is correct, used data base is installed by default with vCenter (simple installation), SQL Express, database is not full or has reached its limit.

  nothing to the Windows event log.

  things tried

  1 rebooted ESXi hosts

  2. restart network management officers

  3 upgrade vCenter Server to build build 947673

  4 restarted vCenter Server

  5. stop all virtual machines, except vCenter Server including POS.

  is already done guest!

  Hello

  Looks like a level of port problem. Can you please make KB:http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&docTypeID=DT_KB_1_1&externalId=2031843 is followed correctly.

• Disks of the virtual machine consolidation is necessary - vCenter 5.1 U1 + ESXi 5.1 + VDP 5.8.0

  Hello

  I am facing problem as many other people do, when snapshot is deleted, the delta files are still there and warning message "consolidation of disks of virtual machines is necessary" is shown on the virtual machine.

  It happened only few but try to find the root cause. He arrived only on virtual machine located on ESXi 5.1 build 799733 which is located in the task of the WTP 5.8.0 backup.

  Is this snapshot problem, a bug in the version of ESXi?

  Unable to find the release notes, where this is documented as bug.

  Thank you

  Finally, I found a reason, therefore, for other users... ESXi 5.1 build 799733 has a bug that is resolved in the update 1 and higher and is connected to the suspended snapshots created by POS, that is why are there so many discs of delta.

  ESXi 5.1 Update 1 Release Notes

  • When the slowdown of snapshot fails the redo logs are not consolidated
    • When you try to take a snapshot of the suspension of a virtual machine, if the snapshot operation fails near the end of its realization, recovery logs created as part of the snapshot are not consolidated. Recovery logs can consume a lot of space to store data.
    • This issue is fixed in this version. If the snapshot suspended operation fails, the redo log files are consolidated.

• ESXi 5.1 patch

  I have a standalone ESXi 5.1 build 799733 GA running on a HP Proliant DL360 server who needs patches. Since its running the free version it seems that my option is updated via vCLI or powershell. Because its a HP Server do I need to retrieve patches from HP or those provided through hostupdate. VMware.com? If HP, does someone know where I can find the updates? It also seems the latest version is update03, can I patch directly to 03 or should I patch 01 and 02 first?

  The current profile name, I assume that the image of HP is installed, so you can go with the image ISO of U3 HP. Otherwise, you need know what additional components - not included in VMware tasks by default - you need to patch/update too. You can see the installed components of the command-line (list of software esxcli vib), or the vsphere Client GUI (Configuration-> health-> software components).

• manually install the patches work but not appearing is not in the repository of patches

  Dear community,

  I'm trying to update my ESX1 5.1.0 build 799733 hosts with a list of the patches below I freshly downloaded:

  Update - de - esxi5.1 - 5.1_update01

  ESXi510-201305001

  ESXi510-201210001

  ESXi510-201212001

  I managed to install my plugin Manager Update and I am able to manually import the files to zip/patches in the Update Manager.

  When I'm trying to create my baseline with the fixes above, they are not appear in the list, at the end of manual import that I have a message at the bottom of the window saying something like 'content 0, position 0, 0, notification is imported... '. »

  Any idea?

• Upgrade to vSphere client 5.1 U1 but using vCenter/ESXi 5.1 (not U1)

  So I saw this recommendation from VMware:

  -----------

  The sequence for vSphere 5.1 update update 1 and their compatible VMware product (2037630)

  If you are using vSphere Client in your environment, it is recommended that you upgrade the vSphere Client to version 5.1 update 1.

  -----------

  
  

  My ESXi servers are still 5.1 (build 799733, some to the build 1021289), and my vCenter Server 5.1.0 build 947673. I should be able to install this patch for the client vSphere on my workstation without problem. It is recommended that VMware, right? That the client must be upgraded, regardless of the version of the host?

  
  

  (I still don't think that the web client (again), so I want to continue to use the vSphere client, if and when I can)

  
  

  Thank you

  
  

  the client is backward compatible, you should be fine

• Change vSwitch MTU problem

  I try to activate frames for our iscsi connections.  Our environment is esxi 5.1 (build 799733).

  I followed KB: 1007654.  The steps for esxi 5.1 and later versions mention you only need to change the MTU on the vswitch, and it will change the MTU on underlying adapters.  I also enabled huge packages from end to end on the network.  But I can't send large packages

  You must set th MTU on port groups as well.

  KB, you said:

• Recovery DELL ESXi 5.1 image

  Hello

  Nice day. I want to upload a custom Image for ESXi 5.1 DELL as we could find to HP Custom Image for ESXi 5.1 with its OEM for VMware drivers.

  But when I search the support site and found no custom, image driver, but a recovery for ESXi 5.1 image.

  I'm confused with the description written on the download page.

  ISO image that ESXi 5.1 Recovery Image Build # 799733 (A02) should be used only to recover/reinstall the ESXi for SD Card/USB Key image on Dell platforms.

  http://www.Dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/DriverDetails/product/PowerEdge-R720?driverId=H8X70&osCode=XI51&FILEID=3163313948&LanguageCode=en

  So is this the personalized Image of DELL for ESXi 5.1 I was looking for or just a picture for the recovery of card SD/USB Key?

  Thank you if someone could give me a hint.

  I'm considered pretty new to install VMware on DELL server.

  Eddy,

  This is the image of installation for the SD and the readers. The sentence came from previous versions that have been "Embedded" to SD card and the "Installable" for hard disks. This is the ISO image, you will need.

  If you have problems or questions during installation let us know.

  Let me know how it goes.

• 5.1 ESXi host is showing that does not

  Hi all

  We are to vCenter 5.5 with Environment 5.1 ESXi hosts. On one of our ESXi hosts, we sometimes get to see 5.1 ESXi, (build 799733) host is not responding and the virtual machines on this subject are displayed as status disconnected at the end of their names.

  When this happens, we are able to ping on the ESXi host and virtual machines are also able to ping / react to what is good, but he continues to be on different hosts at different times, all what I do when this occurs is to try to reconnect on the ESXi host and it connects fine and machines virtual hosting on she will return to the State normal and everything will be normal on this host. I want to understand why this is happening at different times and on different hosts of ESXi and ensure that this should not happen again in the future or find the before root cause is even worse.

  so, could someone please look at this and let me know where to start troubleshooting this to find the root cause.

  Thanks in advance

  Your vCenter and ESXi host is on the same subnet? In any case, I recommend you take a look at this article and apply the patch suggested: VMware KB: hosts ESXi and ESX disconnect randomly VMware vCenter Server
