Update of the hosts that have vCenter on them

I have a vCenter with 2 hosts running ESXi v4. I want to install the updates, but to do this I need to stop the guest computers and go to maintenance mode. Well the 2 hosts run the sql server and the server vcenter, so when I have them stop I can't connect and so cannot be upgraded machines. I thought that there was a stand-alone product and that I could use to update servers or some update offline. My question is how can I update the ESXi servers if I have to close my vCenter and SQL server?

Your question, I assume you have local storage only, shared storage to migrate the server vCenter Server from one host to another. In this case, you must manually edit the hosts. If you are using ESXi 4.0, you can use the "Host Update Utility" which is optionally installed with the vSphere Client. In the case of ESXi 4.1 you must use the vihostupdate command-line utility.

  • When I try to type with the keys that have numbers on them, I have numbers instead of letters.

    The keyboard of my laptop does not work correctly.

    I have somehow turned the keys of the calculator and when I try to type with the keys that have numbers on them, I have numbers instead of letters.  Does anyone know how to disable this option?

    I use a laptop with a wireless keyboard to send this message, but want to use my laptop keyboard.
    Help!

    Hi newsgirl,.

    Somewhere at the top of the laptop keyboard is a key that says Num Lock (or Num Lk or something like that).  It can be accessed directly, or you may need to press a key to access (or some other keys).  In any case, you must click this to turn off the number lock because it is what causes the problem.  This key is usually used on laptops to create a section of a regular keyboard that can act as the normal keyboard calculator keypad (for those who need that, like accountants or persons who need to enter strings of numbers).  Once you turn it off, you will be fine as the keyboard returns to normal.

    I hlpe that aid.

    Good luck!

  • Latency of PE T320 Hyper-V hosts that are set by the BIOS update to the host

    Twice now, I got the prompt Exchange 2010 on my W2K8 Standard Server with Hyper-V suddenly suffer a massive amount of latency and become virtually locked out of the blue.  After hours of troubleshooting, restart and research - as a last-ditch effort I noticed that the BIOS is outdated.  I update of the BIOS and then as magically everything works again.

    Anywhere from 2 to 4 months to go and rinse & repeat.

    I'm going out on a limb here, but I suspect that there is something about the system that gets flushed out during an update of the bios that is the cause of the problem, but I am at a loss to determine what is.  I want to avoid proactively with the server my client Exchange fail, but it goes against my better judgment to apply updates BIOS proactively.  We had the motherboard already toggled because of a bad DRAC, and the problem continues to be.

    I could use help to identify what I can do to prevent this from happening in the future.  TIA

    Well we have not seen the question back at all since we changed the system of "Performance per Watt" profile to 'Performance '.  I would start there first.  It is three months and none of our T320 do more.  We are sure, it's the 90 percent solution.

  • Do I lose all the iMessages that have not been delivered to my iphone if I withdraw (from iMessage) my phone number? My current iphone is broken and I am planing to get a new one, with in a few months.

    Do I lose all the iMessages that have not been delivered to my iphone if I withdraw (from iMessage) my phone number? My current iphone is broken and I am planing to get a new one in a few months.

    You may lose everything.  iMessage, like most e-mail services, don't keep permanently undeliverable messages.  They only keep in the short period send queue (I don't know exactly how much time but some Apple tech sites indicate no more than 10 days to two weeks) until they are purged.  That's pretty standard as otherwise, large volume, messaging services would be sitting on tera-bytes of messages not delivered each month.

    You actually have to change my phone number?  If not, let alone sign and only in iMessage when you have the new phone with this set of numbers upward to the service.

  • When I opened the window "save the Page under", the drop-down box file name indicates the files that have been saved a long time ago. It is not cleared by a function 'clear history' that I can find. How can I erase this?

    When I opened the window "save the Page under", the drop-down box file name indicates the files that have been saved a long time ago. It is not cleared by a function 'clear history' that I can find. How can I erase this?

    Hello.

    I think this is a related issue of Windows, because it is the Manager to save the windows file that we are talking about here (right?). You should contact Microsoft for help with this one, I think. You expect to be able to delete entries simply by touching delete on your keyboard when they are concentrated (that is how it goes for the removal of the form entries specific autocomplete in Firefox), but I have not tried.

    I'm sorry I can't be more helpful.

  • Mix only the properties that have been changed

    Hi all

    Is it possible, form where we can identify the properties that have been changed in the source in the past 24 hours and use them only to the mix?

    You can mix changes, but there is no filter option to specify the specific date and time.

    Go to definition of Blender and select the difference as the value for the Mode property of propagation,

    If your Source is another manual entry of the user in DRM, you can think to filter the changes there and then deal with the DRM.
