Update Manager and the configuration of Virtual Center database = 1 database or the database even?

We have a small environment VMware - 2-3 hosts, only 5-6 virtual machines for now, perhaps upward at 10-12 during the 2009 year.

I looked at VUM and VC sizing spreadsheets and it seems I can do VC and Crossover work of SQL Express 2005 for 1-3 years, I need patch storage etc. and know that I may need to upgrade.

VC and VUM facilities create their own separate databases or they are combined to form 1 data base?

Or I would be better to buy 1 license Standard SQL with the 10 Cal instead? (I know that this would put the scale easily.)

Thank you, Tom

If you let the VC and VUM installers create the databases on the instance of SQL SERVER 2005 Express (named SQLEXP_VIM), it will create separate databases for each (VIM_VCDB for vCenter) and VIM_UMDB for the Update Manager. It is possible to have both of them use the same database, if you need to specify the database and ODBC settings in the installer.

Hope that helps! Please, help me by marking my response as "useful" or "correct", if you feel it is useful!

  • Update Manager and ESXi 5.0 to 5.1

    Hello

    I am trying to upgrade my 5.1 ESXi host using update running 5.0u1 ESXi and vCenter 5.0u1 Manager.

    When I import the ESXi VIM ISO 5.1, I get the following error...

    Import the ESXi image
    VCENTER
    The downloaded update package cannot be used with
    VSphere VMware Update Manager.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you.

    The appropriate upgrade path is updated to vCenter 5.1 first, and then upgrade the ESXi hosts later. It was the same process for the ages with all the upgrades of version of VMware. The upgrade to vCenter is no problem (is). I can see and manage all hosts ESXi5.0U1, but prefer to use Update Manager vCenter to upgrade their 5.1 rather than on the road to CD, but there is no VIB files ' esxi 5.0-> 5.1 upgrade ' available, so nothing to import in the Update Manager.»

    It is not the end of the world, and the upgrade still works I don't know, but I would have thought this VIB would have been available when the 5.1 became available.

  • Is there an alternative to the Update Manager - download the latest VMWare Tools for Windows Server 2003

    Hello

    I am really struggling to find an alternative to the Update Manager to download the latest VMWare Tools for Windows (Server 2003)

    There must be a link of just download somewhere? I scoured VMWare.com nothing helps...

    I can find of the OSP for other platforms (SUSE, Ubuntu etc), but nothing for Windows! Why?

    Any help really appreciated!

    Kind regards

    Tony.

    So you are saying I need to download the latest version of ESX/vSphere and then extract the VM Tools of which rpm?

    It might be a way to get them, if you are unable to install the product.

    The version will say vSphere 4.0 be OK for ESXi 3.5 VMs?

    Yes

  • Virtualize the Virtual Center Database or not virtualize?

    Hi all

    This question might have been asked before but I figure I'll ask anyway... In our environment that we currently use SQL 2005 SP2 as our database server... This is a physical box and want to know what other people do with their DB server? You virtualize them or leaving them physical? Currently we have our Virtual Center Server as a virtual server on our cluster and I followed the guide of best practices, VMware revealed and don't see any problems with it but I am quite hesitant with DB server virtualization... Thoughts? Should do us it or not?  All the virtualized world their database of VC and have not had any problems?

    Thank you.

    Windows Update 80070490 error code appeared yesterday (21 September 2013) and the message "Windows cannot check for updates. I'm using Windows Vista 32-bit, Service Pack 2.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Bold 9930 update failed and the software does not load

    I have a Blackberry Bold 9930 and yesterdasy I received a msg saying to upgrade to 7.x software Blackberry. I followed the instructions (takes too long like 2 hours to download) and then. Big mistake because it cooked my phone. It seems that when you upgrade, the upgrade process goes thru, but stops after the time zone to restore the process and reports an error 602 with a reset button to reset your database. The reset button does not work and I restarted the phone to restore the db. At the moment that it restarts, launched the process, and even once, it failed after the msg indicating time zones (100% and overall restoration treatment 7%). Zones roughly completed, but then I got a msg saying I wandered 602 belive. On all courses was about 5 to 10 percent. Now my phone is undesirable because it does not restart. Verizon says they have a large number of phones across the country, but BlackBerry says it's a matter of Verizon...  Someone at - he already heard of this I am now without such a 4 days while I get a replacement Friday because of the holiday...  I am not very happy as another question, I found - during the upgrade process it used the cells instead of my wirelss home network to download the software and it really took about 2 to 3 hours, then another hour before it failed during the upgrade process. So about. 3 to 4 hours to play with an upgrade yesterday.

    Thank you

    Hello merlin02131

    Welcome to the Forums of the BlackBerry Support

    Sorry to hear about the problem you are experiencing during the update!

    But you can still use Desktop Software for the update process, personally, I prefer never to do an Over the Air update. I think that something has gone wrong with the update process and thus you encounter this error 602.

    You have a backup of your device, or using BlackBerry protect for the backup?

    If you wish you can try several method to recover your device of this error, all you need is a PC and an Internet connection active. But attention, this method deletes the data user in this device. This is the Knowledge Base to follow:

    KB10144 : How to force detect the BlackBerry smartphone using the Application Loader

     

    Additional information:

    KB29237 : "App Error 602" appears on the BlackBerry smartphone running BlackBerry 7

  • Filling of updated by and the last Date of update in Wizard generated shape tab

    Version 4.2.6.00.03

    Hello

    I have a wizard generated shape tab and I have to fill two columns last updated by and last Date of update.

    I have a horrible time to do something which should be easy enough.

    I created a page process:

    BEGIN

    BECAUSE me in 1... APEX_APPLICATION.g_f01. COUNTY

    LOOP

    UPDATE high_level_estimate

    SET last_updated_date = SYSDATE

    , last_updated_by =: APP_USER

    WHERE high_level_estimate_id = APEX_APPLICATION.g_f03 (i);

    END LOOP;

    END;

    But the columns are not updated.

    The primary key column and the primary key column appears in do not appear that's why I think the columns are not updated.

    So when a new row is added or an existing row is updated when the user clicks on the button submit these two columns need to be updated.

    Can someone help me get this to work?

    Can what information I provide?

    Thank you

    Joe

    Jen,

    Wow! Thanks for checking back!

    I had finally it works. Sorry I didn't update the post.

    I used the trigger approach, although I do not like but it is.

    What I did try to find out which of these two areas were the origin of the problem. So said the two fields in the query and ran the page and update the page and there is no error of course since I commented on the columns.

    Then I've uncommented a column, repeated updates, and worked, and this column has been updated.

    I uncommented the other column, repeated that updates and work again and again update the two columns.

    I have NO IDEA why. Somehow something has been corrupted, and comment and uncomment the columns set.

    I have no change to relax during this process. The relaxation I posted earlier is the same code.

    Thank you very much for your help Jen!
