• Update Virtual Center to U1

  I need to upgrade my Virtual Center to match my ESX4 U1 servers.  It seem not to be many complaints about bad server updates to Virtual Center.  Is it really as simple as performing the installation and reboot?  Our envorionemnt is entirely HA.

  I remember there is even no need to reboot the server vCenter. Just a little down on service vCenter.

  HA will continue to work without vCenter.

• Apache manual updates can be applied to the ESX 4 Server?

  We use a product called retina to perform security analysis and she claims that Apache on servers ESX 4 (update 3) is a vulnerability and must be updated.  We can perform updates or it will cause issues with the services?

  Hello and welcome to the forums.

  In the "ESX 4 Patch Management Guide", he says in the FAQ:

  When a rpm on my ESX host has an equivalent Linux, can I use the Linux RPM to upgrade my system?
  N ° VMware recommends that you update your host ESX 4.0 with RPM provided by VMware.

  It is possible that the vulnerability has been also updated by VMware and an official patch is avaiable for her.

  Good luck!

• Update Virtual Center of using SSO 5.1 5.0

  I currently have 5 VC installed on a virtual machine. 1 data center, 4-pole, 40 guests in total. I want to upgrade to VC 5.1 and then of course the upgrade of my hosts.

  I wonder if I should use simple installation or install the SSO, the inventory and VC separately.

  questions: what are the limits of the Simple installation? In the documentation it says for small deployments, but no precise figures.

  Thank you

  Simple installation gives you the opportunity to provide the size of your inventory during the installation, so it could support your environment. The bundled SQL database supports 50 VMS of memory. But if the database is elsewhere is not a problem.

  Theres no reason not to use the regular install, especially with the limitations of install install/basic simple SSO.

• Virtual Center stops all the virtual machines in a cluster HA

  Hello.

  I have a question about vCenter machine. We have deployed

  VMware ESX 4.0 HA cluster on Server Blade IBM 3. VCenter machine resides

  on a virtual machine on the same cluster. When we tried to recharge a physical switch (in the)

  IBM Blade Center), all our virtual machines on the cluster have been turned off automatically.

  If the vCenter VM is turned off, then everything is fine - the reloading of the

  Switch is not turning off the virtual machines (and the net is ok - start machines

  work through another switch in IBM bladecenter). If the machine vCenter

  powers (manually), all the other machines, which have been put off, are powered

  on too (automatically, of course, with the help of the machine of vCenter). How

  is that what I can adjust the machine vCenter, so it could not power power machines by

  itself automatically?

  ESX 4.0 (162856)

  Hello

  Right-click in your cluster, change the settings. Select 'Virtual Machine Options' under 'Vmware HA' and choose the host response of insulation desired for the entire cluster or individual VM. If you do not have network connections redundant between your ESX machines, you probably want the virtual machine for when you need to do maintenance or your network switch died. You should probably also disable HA while doing maintenance. You should consider to build network redundancy in the case of a production environment.

  I hope that helps!

• VMWare Virtual Center 2.5 update 3 management ESX v3.5 Update 4 and 5 guests

  I'm doing an audit of versions of VMWare and it seems that our cluster hosts are running a later update version as the virtual center server. Virtual Center 2.5 update 3 management ESX v3.5 Update 4 and 5 guests.

  Does anyone know if this causes problems. This has been the case since before I started and there seems to be no negative effect I see.

  Don't want to update virtual center update 5 as we plan to upgrade to vSphere, shortly.

  you are in a supported configuration, so you should be fine

  http://www.VMware.com/PDF/vSphere4/R40/vsp_compatibility_matrix.PDF

  However, with more agents on new hosts, you can see some are disconnects/no response errors for your hosts in vCenter.  In general, I would like to have my instance of vCenter to or superior to the latest version of ESX.

• Problems of Virtual Center update

  Hello

  I'm trying to update my 2.5 Update virtual Center 2-day 6 and downloaded the zip on the VMWARE site.  When I run through the upgrade, everything seems fine and I click on install, but shortly after, I get:

  Windows Installer - another version of this product is already installed.  The installation of this version cannot continue.  To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove programs from the control panel.

  Is it not possible to upgrade on top?  You really have to uninstall the old version of VCenter to update to the current iteration?  This is my first Virtual Center upgrade.  Or is that what I downloaded the wrong package?  And is there a smaller package to use for update?

  Kind regards

  Darren

  Another version of this product is already installed. The installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove programs from the control panel.

  Is it not possible to upgrade on top?

  Apparently not... It does not give an error, he specifically told you TO remove it all first.  vCenter 4.0 performs the removal of previous versions for you.

  And just info there is NOT such a thing as an 'upgrade' EVERY install, Windows, programs, EVERYTHING a re - INSTALLS the product, some may simply automate the removal of the software if you don't have to do, but NO Windows "updates" package the existing installation, they ALWAYS remove the oldest elements, then replaced with the most recent.

• How to check what database is used by VMware Virtual Center?

  Hello

  I recently inherited a small environment and I was asked to upgrade ESX 3.5 to ESX 4.0. I'm not a person from the database, but how can I check what database is used by VMware Virtual Center? According to the guide to upgrade the MSDE database is not supported in ESX 4.0.

  I want to just make sure that we did not use this database. I looked in the ODBC Data Source Administrator. Thanks to the system DSN, I saw that the drivers for Vmware Update Manager and Vmware Virtual Center are "SQL Native Client". Also registry editor, I watched HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-> SOFTWARE-> VMWARE, INC.-> VMware Virtual Center-> DB. Data on 'Vmware VirtualCenter' next to '1' and '4' is set to "SQL Native Client".

  So, how can I determine if the database used is not MSDE?

  Sorry for the stupid question, but I'm not so much with the databases...

  Thank you.

  Den...

  > So, how can I determine if the database used is not MSDE?

  MSDE does not remote databases.  ODBC Open, click System DSN, click Configure.  The listed database is that it uses, and if that is the name used for virtual center, this is the database in use.

• Incorrect value for its use of virtual computer memory in Virtual Center

  Hello everyone

  I have a problem to track usage of the memory of some virtual machines in Virtual Center.

  The virtual center of the opening interface is reported to me that virtual machines have a use of memory about 95%. Accessible through the console of the machine, however, the Task Manager shows me a memory about 15-20% and 4% of the processor usage.

  The machines in question are among other the domain controller is working correctly.

  Thanks in advance

  Hi dmilazzo,

  I had this problem a few weeks ago. After updating my ESX hosts, this problem has been resolved.

  Are yours up-to-date?
