  I also see

  NSXpluginException: An unexpected error has occurred in the NSX plugin: creation of internal networks of service metadata failed, I chose the network of metadata to be in the same network as the management and another to try, both times was not the same.

  Any help would be great...

  For people who could see something similar, it was a problem with the version of the NSX, it was 6.1.1 so when the ansible VIO sent a set of instructions for the service of neutrons at the start, it was not based, so I ended up doing a NSX upgrade to 6.2.

• Vcenter merging with SRM

  Hello

  Currently, I have two datacenter (DR/DR) running vcenter separated with MRS.

  We have plans to consolidate the two datacenter and use a unique vcenter instead of two. and is no longer intend to use RS.

  Someone can guide us. Any documentation or reference is very much appreciated.

  Thank you

  Not sure on the documentation for this scenario, but what you can do is failover machines virtual site vCenter that you no longer want to use and after the failover, just decommission the SRM.

  About uninstall RS, see the documentation: Uninstall Site Recovery Manager

• Addition of new esxi 6.02 to regroup with NSX

  Hi all

  I need your guys help.

  I try to add the new host of our clusters of laboratories. about our group, we have a few edge VMs, Manager of the NSX, etc...

  That's what I've done so far in order to add hosts to the cluster:

  1. install and configure 2 host (storage and networking)

  2 Add the host to Vcenter (not yet added to the cluster)

  3 Add the host to the switch dv NSX

  4. Add the host to the cluster.

  When I tried to add to the cluster, I get the follwing error:

  "XXX XXX not found eam.agent.enable.label.

  What can I do to solve this problem.

  Thank you!

  Eran

  I did the following to resolve the issue:

  1 remove the cluster host

  2 remove the vCenter server host

  3. remove the NSX DV_Switch

  4 Add the host to vCenter

  5. Add the NSX DV_Switch

  7. Add the host to the cluster.

  Thank you all for your help.

• upgrade from 5.1 to 6.0 vCenter fails with the error

  Hello together!

  We wanted to do an upgrade of vCenterServer 5.1 to 6.0.

  But we get an error after that I have to enter the vCenter Server credentials.

  It is the following error message:

  Error: IP address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is present in the certificate subject names alt but under DNS key.

  This ip address cannot be used for installation.

  Resolution: use a dns name or ip address that is present in the subject of certificate alt names or regenerate the ssl certificate for the SSO before continuing.

  I don't know what to do.

  I think that Yes, that's what he meant.

  Quick question: have you checked with HCL before the upgrade?

• Add vCenter fails with CertificateChainValidator - vCO 6.0.3

  I had a running off vCO 5.5 self-service portal using a bunch of users.  I deployed a 6.0.3 vCO device VM and imported the config.  I finished the configuration, and all radio buttons are green on the site Configuration port 8283.  When you try to add vCenter using the workflow 'Add an instance of vCenter server', it does not immediately in the workflow "Import a certificate" with "ReferenceError: 'CertificateChainValidator' is not defined."  I have imported the SSL certificate of the vCenter and the PSC under Network-> SSL Trust Manager.   All certificates are self-signed because MRS. 6.0 would not work with CA Cert on vCenter has signed at the time where we deployed SRM.  I have not touched the CERT on vCO 6.0.3... trying to take the path of least resistance to maintain vCenter and SRM running and get the vCO online.  I checked vCenter MOB and there are no extensions of vCO.  How can I get vCO 6.0.3 is registered correctly with vCenter?  My vCenter is a VCSA and 6.0 build 2656761.

  VMware support was able to understand this.  For some reason, not all the workflow was available even though I deployed a new 6.0.3 camera and imported the config of my old 5.5 instance.  So we went into the Web of Orchestrator Configuration page-> troubleshooting and click 'Reset the current Version' for plug-ins.  Bounced, she and the missing workflow was there.  Back then in the Web Configuration Orchestrator page-> vSphere Configuration under general and enter IP address of our vCenter PSC and [email protected] used.  The appearance of the data worked, I checked most of the boxes and could see vCenter in vCO thereafter.

• Did not backup VCenter VM with space in name and the virtual created from ESX host computer

  Hi all

  Have worked on the backup of VMware VM ESX 4.1,5.1.5.5 for nearly a year and now I'm familiar Vsphere API (VADP), VDDK API,.

  Now, I'm working on the same implementation by using the credentials of vCenter it works very well up there in the name of VM space.

  VDDK API fails to open the disc with the error code VIX_E_FILE_NOT_FOUND 4, I studied on it, the problem is with "vmpath", the setting is mandatory when using VDDK with vCenter.

  vmpath is in cnxParams and it specifies the owner of the particular disc vm.

  vmpath format is "vmpath = DatacenterName/vm/VMname" for example. 'vmpath = myDC/vm/testVM' it works perfectly

  but the problem is when it's likevmpath = myDC/vm/test VM"i.e. the space in my VM name and then fails.

  I use VDDK 5.5.4 and vCenter 6.0 because it is compatible with the other.

  Thank you and best regards,

  Please provide a code snipped, including the full command. This could make things more clear.

• VCenter Server with VMWare ESXi free 5 5

  Hi all

  Test the VCenter Server 5 Evaluation (60 day trial) to management all my 5 of VMWare ESXi (free license). It works with restrictions. These restrictions aren´t a problem for me. I need only to move (power off of virtual machines), clone, create templates for and organize my servers in a single interface VSphere Client. So, I would like to know what type of license of VCenter Server 5 woks if VMWare ESXi 5 free. Buy the VCenter Server 5 Standard?

  Another doubt is if VStorage works with VMWare ESXi free license I.

  Best regards

  Fabio Sobral

  Unfortunately the free ESXi hosts in vCenter management is not possible (except for the eval). The hosts of ESXi need a vCenter Server Agent license that is only available in editions 'paid' of ESXi.

• How to configure vCenter Server with an external smtp server?

  Is it possible to configure vCentere Server with an external smtp server?

  In our environment, we must configure vCenter server to send email alerts when the alarms are triggered. We use the google apps (smtp.gmail.com) server as our official email server.

  I know the steps to do the same?

  You must authenticate external messages. Here is one of this tutorial. http://paulgrevink.WordPress.com/2011/02/06/configuring-vCenter-for-email-with-SMTP-authentication/

• Vcenter replacement with another server?

  Hi, I have a client who has there VCenter server as a physical box on windows xp.  The box was funny for a while acting, needs to be restarted often.

  There are only 3 hosts ESXi with HA installation, nothing really more than that.

  So I was planning just on VCenter running on a virtual machine with windows server 2003.  I don't want to convert the physical area more because he has all these problems, so I want to do a new installation.

  I was hoping I could just install a fresh VM on VCenter, then simply add the ESXi hosts for it.  Is it as simple as that.

  I don't to lose performance data.  HA is easy to configure again.

  So what happens when I try to add an ESXi host that already belongs to another server Vcenter?  Im hoping it let me know and just made me add a new and Rob configurations such as the old HA off the server information.  Is that what happens?

  Hoepfully that makes sense.

  Thank you

  Mike

  Mike,

  First of all, Remove your old VC ESXi server. If you don't like that, this box is of course out of cluster. So adding the same server ESXi in another VC and configuration HA & DRS is not warn and do not threaten you.

  The above suggestion is reserved when you don't care HA configurations and performance data.

  Happy installing!

  Thank you

• vCenter complete with just 2 hosts database?

  Last week, my vCenter Server broke down 3 x.  As far as I know, the SQLExpress database hit that's the limit of 4 GB.  No problem, I'll just follow the operation here:

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1025914

  Unfortunately, that released only 10MB.  Then, of course, less than a day later we are back to where we started.  Then I ran this:

  http://blogs.VMware.com/kb/2010/09/dealing-with-vCenter-41-database-tables-growth.html

  After deleting (?) the VPX_EVENT and _VPX_EVENT_ARG tables, I restarted the box and we are at the top (for now).

  As someone who has * no. with SQL experience, how will I know how I have now in my VCDB of free space, and more important again, what is causing it fills?  My best guess is that we use vReplicator Vizioncore (not buying it), that could generate many events, but I have no way to check it out and they say to me "you must call VMware."

  Suggestions appreciated!

  You can also check your statistics in vCenter.  The more statistics, more your DB level could get.  In addition, you can watch the maintenance tasks to help keep this DB under control.  I can't Express, but when you are in the properties of the DB, see if you have a recovery model, if it is something other than the simple, to change.  Also, I posted a KB above which will help with your transaction logs.  These tend to be the largest part of the size of the DB instance.

• vCenter vsphere with hosts in esxi 3.5

  Hello!

  I would like to know different things.

  First of all if I migrate vsphere vcenter could I maintain my ESX 3.5i hosts?

  Or I must have at least a host on vsphere and other in ESX 3.5 I have?

  The second thing is if I update a single host is this host will write all the data on the storage? (guests on the storage worldwidenames)

  Thank you

  for the help

  There is no reason for hepatitis a at least a better host. You will be able to connect to vCenter 4 and ESX 3.5 hosts using the vSphere Client (in fact, you'll have the VI Client and installed the vSphere client).

  I have only a few concerns about maintaining this scenario for a long time because maybe you can run some buggy not covered by vmware - question example, sometimes that you have problems on the properties of the data store discovers with ESX 3.5 under vCenter 4.

• Move the vcenter & composer with view Linked clones.

  Composer and vCenter from Windows 2008 to Windows 2012R2. Names of iPs and host will change.

  I don't know how re-point the connector servers so they point to the new vCenter and the composer server without losing my clone of link stocks?

  
  

  Hello

  I don't think that you can do.

  Moving workstations managed by sight between VMware vCenter servers is not supported (1018045)

  You can change the composer server, following the procedure for the migration of the composer to another machine, but vcenter Server I do not.

  If your vcenter is configured at the Admin to view via a FULL domain name, you can then change the ip address. Not the right host name.

  Thank you

And the events of no. authentication with the CIFS connection method.

  EDIT: after reading more these seem to be a kind of event COM? Maybe some dll was not registered?

  all thoughts

  Well I'll answer my own question.

  We had to activate audits events connection successful on windows domain controllers and then it worked.
