• "failure to communicate with the server" related to the vCenter mode

  Hello

  I have two vCenter servers connected in bound Mode.

  On both, I created the same files (via the computers view virtual and models) and the same permissions for the same ad groups.

  When I connect with a user (belong to the relevant AD Group) for vCenter2, I can see the vCenter1 and vCenter2, with the respective folders.

  However, when I connect to vCenter1 (with the same user), I get an error message:

  "There are problems with contacting the following vCenter server:

  "vCenter2: failure of authentication with the server.

  And there's a message in red on the lower right: 'No 1 vCenter Server not connected.'

  My DNS is set up perfectly. I can't do a ping on each vCenter server at once.

  Someone has an idea of what could be the problem?

  Thank you

  Yaniv

  We received the error message was "Failure to authenticate" and "vCenter server not connected" in the lower right corner of the client vSphere for all non-local Windows administrators.  After much research (VMware documentation bad lack), it was determined that one has been denied logon session on the server vCenter Server 4 Type as recorded in the security of the Windows operating system event log.  Connection type 4 is log on as a batch job.  After you apply this permission within the vCenter server's local security policy both (or all), non admin users were able to bind several instances within a single client vSphere vCenter Server successfully.

  Again, this is something that should be held responsible for the VMware documentation.  The delegated admin model is not intended for all operators of vCenter working with local administrative privileges on the vCenter server.

• Status.msi error with installation of the hp officejet 6500 E709n wireless

  It's frustrating.

  "I tried to install a full print driver software for my portable printer wireless hp officejet 6500 E709n and even if I can complete the process, I get this error message: the component you are trying to use is on a network unavailable resource.

  How can I find the status.msi file and stop this endless loop of error messages?

  Yes, it's very good information.  Thank you to be thorough to me.  I actually had this happen to me personally on my Windows XP and printer Photosmart older (different error message but even constant pop up).  I could easily (but a lot of time, I might add) fix my problem of:

  1. uninstall the printer from Add/Remove programs.

  2. run cleaning disc of all programs > Accessories > system tools > disk cleanup.

  3 restart the PC.

  4 selection of a backup in CCleaner system option and then cleaning the registry using this tool. Click here and carefully read the reviews in CNET and opt to download the tool to see what I mean.

  5. restart the PC again.

  6. can download and install my printer on the site, but in your case, here are the drivers and the software feature full Officejet 6500 Wireless (the link is for the version of Windows 7 32-bit PC U.S.).

  This can become very difficult at times, so I want to provide this very comprehensive document from HP which covers your exact error message and their favorite not to try.  Mine are a little easier but a 'tad - little' more risky because I provided a link to a specific 3rd registry part cleaner that you use at your discretion (there are others out there).  I like it because I can back up my system first in the case where that something else has been removed should not have been.  I don't have that happen, fortunately.  Please read this document as well just to be on the safe side.  I'm here to help (do not do worse) so let me know if I need to explain something better, but I think that you have everything you need here to start.

  I would first check "request" from the view of the DBA_SNAPSHOTS/DBA_MVIEWS dictionary information, if it reveals something obvious.

  But it looks more like an internal error when processing the update. You can get more information on the follow-up to the session error. "Alter session set sql_trace = true;" before running the update should be sufficient. Then unplug and check the trace file generated error using "tkprof" and check the output or by searching manually "err =" in the trace file.

  What 4 numbers of Oracle version do you use?

• Console remote vCenter - the server name cannot be resolved

  When I run the utility of Vcenter web-based console, a new web page opens and displays the console but I get the following error:

  "The server name could not be resolved."

  Here is a screenshot:

  

  Here is the URL of the remote console tries to display:

  I am a student from progressing to a VTC VCP5 Certification community college.  We use the VMware Network Netlab Academy facility. I have no access to the client based on Windows Vcenter.  I have only the client on the Vcenter web access.

  Many many thanks Andre!  The work of Console launch.  After that I removed the entries in/etc/hosts localhost to the server vcenter-1, I brought successfully to the top of the console window.  Of course, I also had to add an entry for the host esxi-1 in each file/etc/hosts.

  

  The console works great.  I was able to connect and send commands of Linux; However...

  The only remaining question I have is that the console returns to Mode "full screen" by default and I can't seem to exit full screen mode.  It encloses the vclient overall utility.  Is it possible to tell the coming launch mode console non-plein default screen?  Y at - it a remote console setting that controls "Full Screen Mode".

• VSphere Web client and client heavy cannot connect to Vcenter server 5.5, web client fails with 2032 error before the connection, then the work after one minutes ferw.

  Hi all

  I really need help here.  I have a new installation of Esxi5.5 and installed the server vcenter build 5.5.0.5201 device 1476389.

  I have host files properly configured for DNS and Server 2008 R2 running that I use to connect with the client or web client heavy.

  Initially, I get an error with the web client to connect, he began to paint Vmware and when it comes to 'r' in the name it fails with #2032, so I can no longer

  access the page at all, he says: connection refused for the page. If I wait a while I can connect again.

  heavy client vSphere fails at this time as well.  However, I cannot communicate directly with Vsphere client to server esxi host and it works all the time.

  There seems to be a problem with the device of vcenter server because the thick client fails, and does not open a backup program using vcenter server

  inventory when this happened.

  Please help, it drives me crazy...

  Dan

  Hello

  Since I found the solution to the problem of connecting to the device of vcenter.  It is a conflict of IP address on the network.  There was a machine with the same IP address virtuall

  as the vcenter server.  This caused intermittent problems etc.. Why web client would still work if I have the vmware client open I do not know

  so thank you for your help.

  When you have selected configure DB for the analysis of reports, you may have selected previously configured DB and therefore the configuration utility could expect that there is already a folder of RM1. Then run the config utility select configure DB under Reporting Analysis (uncheck all other options in config utility) and choose the configuration at the time of the first, then go ahead and let...

• Access error in the status of material on the hosts to vCenter

  I have a virtual machine on one of my hosts, 64-bit Windows 2008 SP2, with of VMware vCenter Server installed on it. I connect to manage all my guests. I changed the NETBIOS name of the virtual from Windows machine to comply with the new standards of the convention of naming on our network, and now I have the following problem when you try to access the page of material status on my hosts. It works fine if I connect directly to the host, but no longer works via vCenter... Someone knows how to fix this? It must have something to do with the change of name, because it worked fine before the change.

  

  I don't myself yet, but maybe http://vr0x0r0man.blogspot.com/2010/08/rename-vcenter-41-server.html can help solve the problem.

• How to get IP/MAC information of the governing body ILO as stated in the material status tab

  Hello

  I know there are scripts of HP to collect information of the IPC/MAC (hpconfg get_network.xml) ILO Governing Council and then use VMware powercli IPMI script to feed DPM.

  as published on http://www.vpeeling.com/?tag=scripting

  Add-PSSnapin vmware. VimAutomation.core - ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

  SE connect-VIserver-Server your.vcenter.server

  $VMHosts = @(import-Csv "C:\scripts\host-info.csv")

  $IPMIUser = "dpmuser".
  $IPMIPass = "dpmpass".

  {foreach ($VMhost to $VMHosts)

  $esxMoRef = get-vmhost $VMHost.Hostname | % {Get-view $_.} ID}
  $IpmiInfo = new-Object Vmware.Vim.HostIpmiInfo
  $IpmiInfo.BmcIpAddress = $VMHost.iLOIP
  $IpmiInfo.BmcMacAddress = $VMHost.iLOMAC
  $IpmiInfo.Login = $IPMIUser
  $IpmiInfo.Password = $IPMIPass
  $esxMoRef.UpdateIpmi ($IpmiInfo)

  }

  But, the question I got recently. How can get out us of this info via vCenter? The vClient has the named material status tab and we see this info.

  

  Did anyone tried it this way?

  PowerCLI or SDK (c#), his is not serious.

  Thanks in advance

  A.S.

  You may have gotten a solution now...

  In any case, I found this function (Get-VMHostWSManInstance) which works fine:

  http://blogs.VMware.com/vipowershell/2009/03/monitoring-ESX-hardware-with-PowerShell.html

  The most difficult part is to identify the CIM class containing the BMC MAC/IP address (in my case I need just an IP address). After digging in this doc:

  http://www.VMware.com/support/developer/CIM-SDK/smash/U3/GA/apirefdoc/OMC_IPMIIPProtocolEndpoint.html

  I had the chance to locate: OMC_IPMIIPProtocolEndpoint

  The Get-VMHostWSManInstance call:

  Get-VMHostWSManInstance - VMHost (get-vmhost 'vmhost1') - OMC_IPMIIPProtocolEndpoint - ignoreCertFailures of the class | Select IPv4Address, MACAddress

  will give the address IP/MAC of BMC.

  BTW, I'm using PowerCLI 5.0.1 on Windows 7, is the host ESX 4.x

• Tab problem ESXi 4.1 material

  vSphere client = 4.1.0 Build 258902

  vCenter Server = 4.10 Build 258902

  Software installed on each server ESXi 4.1 (most are ProLiant DL360 G6)

  HPQ - esxi4.1uX - bundle-1. 0

  HP-nmi-pilot - 1.1.02

  Open ports between vCenter and ESXi 4.1 = tcp two-way 5989 (the port is also open between hop vSphere and vCenter)

  My problem:

  When I click on the Hardware tab sometimes it displays information of sensors (of WORK) but sometimes shows service on that host to control the material not responding or is not available . I don't know why this is happening. I have over 80 ESXi hosts in this vCenter and 90% of them are in different countries (1 server in an office) and most of them have a problem with the Hardware tab. I'm sure it's based network because I have 10 knots and there is no problem because they are all in a datacenter.

  Increase timeout for the ESXi host with vCenter data collection?

  Any ideas that I can do about it or how to fix it later?

  Greetings

  V.Hristev

  When it is connected directly the hardware data available in Configuration > hardware > State of health.

  A disconnection / reconnection retains performance (so no, if you choose the option remove) data.  If you try a disconnect, I'd start with a single host not in a HA cluster.

• Cannot add host ESXi 5.5 to vCenter for a routed network - cannot communicate with the specified host

  I was wondering if anyone has come across this problem before, who could give advice how to fix them:

  Host of pre-production UCS ESXi migration of a Production vCenter on another network (routing in place)

  Can ping both directions successfully - from vCenter Prod to the host of the pre-production

  no firewall between the two.

  902 port is open on the host

  Host connects to the pre-production vCenter on the subnet even fine

  VCenter production can add different hosts on the same network end

  Even with the various guests of ESXi UCS.

  ESXi host was completely disconnected and removed from vCenter inherited before attempting to add. No dvswitch physical or virtual.

  Then try and add, enter the user name and password and get cannot communicate with the specified host.

  Thank you

  The solution to this. Used ESX host 5.5 3B (3248547) update that disables SSLv3. (Ref: VMware ESXi 5.5 updated Notes version 3B) one of the consequences of this is that older versions of vCenter (such as trying to move the host) can not add/connect host.

  Enable SSLv3 to spend (port 443) on the resolved host (virtuallyPeculiar: connection A ESXi 5.5 U3b host to vCenter with a lower Version A.)

  Note: should not enable SSLv3 to Port 902.

• Best practices for backup of vCenter device and ESXi hosts?

  Hello

  I have a new VMware environment based on 5.5 ESXi and vCenter Server Appliance. A few questions:

  • What is the best practice to perform the backup of the vCenter Server Appliance? I set up the camera with the embedded SQL Express database.
  • It's recommended to backup the ESXi host or is it easier to any re - install failure?

  Best regards
  ,

  Thor-Egil

  Hello

  You can use VMware VDP to backup your device of vCenter. It is included in essentials, standard, enterprise, and enterprise as well as licenses.

  I won't have backups of ESXi servers. Restore the backup would take more time that the deployment of a new ESXi.Only thing, you may want to consider is to enable logging remotely, so you can see why the hosts failed.

• (Resolved) lost vCenter connections to ESXi in other subnet

  Nice day. Faced with the following problem and I can not find a solution.
  
  I have two subnets 192.168.1.0/24 and 192.168.2.0/24. Subnets connected through VPN.
  The first subnet a vCenter Server (192.168.1.10) and a computer with vSphere Client (192.168.1.11).
  In the second subnet has ESXi (192.168.2.8) and a computer with vSphere Client (192.168.2.11).
  
  The problem is this: after a random time vCenter Server will see more ESXi.
  
  In a thorough investigation revealed the following distribution:
  (1) when the vCenter no longer see the ESXi, is not possible to ping from the OS Server ESXi. (Windows Server 2012).
  (2) computer with vSphere Client (192.168.1.11) continues to see ESXi, pings and can be connected directly to the ESXi.
  (a) If you don't touch anything, then after a while is more able to ping ESXi and this computer.
  (3) computer with vSphere Client (192.168.2.11) continues to see ESXi, pings and can be connected directly to the ESXi. No problem to connect from this workstation at any time.

  
  After connecting directly to the ESXi, for example to change the IP address of 192.168.2.9, and then back to 192.168.2.8 - vCenter Server immediately starts see the ESXi (including pings).
  First of all, I decided that the problem in ESXi firewall and turned off by this command 'esxcli network firewall set - fake license', but this does not solve the problem.
  
  In any case, firewall turned off completely on the server vCenter Server just does not solve the problem.
  
  ESXi version: 5.1.0 1065491
  vCenter version: 5.1.0 1235232
  
  In what may be a catch?
  
  Thank you for your help.

  P.S. Sorry for my bad English

  In general, after a few weeks of turmoil, experimentally is that the problem in the router. More precisely in the metrics of routes. The metric for the route to the subnet to subnet 2.0 1.0 has more default gateway metric. Therefore, when the VPN tunnel to the bottom of ESXi immediately heading for another router, without going through the fact that he needed to get directions in 1.0 and is then reached the border, packages out there is dead. Yes... Truth is somewhere near =)
