vCenter DB moved to another server - missing jobs?

Hello.

I just moved our virtual Center / Manager Update databases to a new server - which went well and vCenter 4.1 is being run again - but what comes to my mind, it is that the rest of this guide:

http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1004382 

... There will be 3 jobs in "SQL server agent job list:

Last day stats rollup

Last month...

Last week...

BUT, when I look at the old server has the same 3 jobs over these:

Cleanup task event

TopN day

TopN last month

TopN since one week

TopN for a year

No longer needed? Either lack just in the link above?

Hey Chrmol - I just stumbled upon a problem similar < < I guess it's the same question > >.

I moved my VC DB to another server and made to recreate jobs for the postponement of his performance stats. I forgot to check my vCenter in front DR, but when I did today, I noticed that the jobs that you have mentioned exist in a vCenter nine 4.1 DB as opposed to a DB from 4.0 to 4.1 upgrade. I saw warnings under vCenter Service status as jobs were not cleaning all the data.

I solved the problem by running queries for all work on my upgraded DB VC. Now the two DBs have the same jobs such as topn spent the day, etc.

Queries are named job_blah, blah_mssql.sql. I ran all but Annex 1, 2 & 3 (perf stats) and this has created the same jobs as the new vCenter 4.1 DB.

The path to the sql queries is file://\\%vCenterServer%\c$\Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\VirtualCenter Server

Not sure if you are still working on it, but I thought I'd bring it just in case where.

  • VM does not start after moving to another server

    Hi all

    After our production server is down with a motherboard broken, we install another server (different hwardware) and installed vSphere 5.1. Existing virtual machines (database) (origin server) are on a raid (two drives raid 1) controller. We installed the RAID drivers in vSphere to make the database accessible (Areca RAID controller). Then, from the "Configuration" tab we opened the VM (browse the database) of the databases of the existing virtual machine, rightclickt to the servername.vmx folder and choose "add to the inventory. After that, the VM are added to the inventory of the VM client. The first time, we started the virtual machine, he asked if the virtual machine has been moved or copied. Because we did not know the correct answer, we choose "copied". He mentioned when we did not know the correct answer, choose "copy". After that, there are a lot of disk activity, but it ends in an error that it cannot find the vmdk file.

    Power on virtual machine

    MachineName.com

    [File]

    /vmfs/volumes/504dbfc2-bc271df0-F9B3-001e67339752/MachineName.COM_2.VMDK was not found.

    Then the boot stops and nothing happends.

    In the original situation all disk storage took place in the Bay of disks in the RAID controller, so there where no additional drives installed for storing the snapshot.

    Help, please!

    Have you added two virtual disks to the virtual machine? The _2 in the file name machinename.com_2.vmdk indicates usually that it's the second virtual disk on the virtual computer

    I moved to another site with my IP Phone 7945 G.  The new site has no backend for IP telephony infrastructure.  However, the IP phone still works, and works well with the same phone number.  However, the missed, received, and placed calls are is more connected.

    Here's my situation.  7942 configured with the "using AnyConnect SSL VPN to ASA".  I add the device to CallManager and connect to the network internal to get to the bottom of the configuration.  Then I connect to an external network to test the VPN.  So I don't think the assignment of VLANS is relevant to my situation.  The phone ends with an ASA to the assigned IP address, but never gets a TFTP address.  I have add our TFTP on the phone manually and missed/received/place calls started working.  This is to think it takes an option 150 added to the addresses that the SAA is distributing.

    It is possible and feasible too running on another server vCenter Server Foundation vCops and point it to one you want to listen to? We have vCenter servers in our environment, but I want to follow the one who is widely used, but want to install vCops on the environment of vCenter which use less. This is a possible solution and environments are connected over a WAN via Tunnel PTP.

    Hello

    In my view, there no problem on the vCops tip to an another vCenter. Just make sure on the network connectivity and vCenter should be accessible via the network.

    Also, how can I move the license server?

    Thank you

    Be physical vmotion wouldn't work - then you options:

    (1) vCenter maintaining physical - to maintain the existing environment, you will need to copy the existing database on the new server vCenter - once it is install a new copy of vCenter on the new machine set up the oDBC connector to point to the version copied from the database. If you are not concerned to maintain the existing environment, you can simply install a fresh instance of vcenter and remove the old environment ESX hosts and add them to the new vcenter.

    Yu could also invest in a product like PlateSpin migrate and migration of P2P.

    (2) travel vCenter for a VM - use Standaloone of VMware P2V VM vCenter Converter.

  • 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

  • What is the process to move the VCenter SQL DB from one server to another?

    I read the threads for the displacement of vCenter Server and it's local database from one server to another. My situation is a little different.

    VirtualCenter Server 2.5 build 174768 has it's SQL database on another server.  We're going to retire that SQL server only and move just the DB to a new SQL Server - current vCenter server will not be affected.

    I'm trying to figure out how knowledge current vCenter once used SQL server (DCMNMSSQL02) DB is now on the server DCMSQL07 - which all on stays of DB.

    Hello.

    You must update the DSN on the server vCenter.  See the article kb 7960893 for more information.

  • VMDK moving from one server to another

    We have a server ESXi free vSphere 4 a third device that uses of 200 GB of hard drive space.  We must move from this server to another server ESXi 4 only 130 GB of free space.  So my question is how to move and how reduce us it?

    We have a company of vSphere 4.1 license, so we have converter but that would work in this case since niether the source or destination servers are allowed?

    Hello

    You can use stand-alone Vmware converter to migrate the virtual machine to an ESXi host to another host ESXi. During this process,.

    You can play with the size of vmdk. You can go to advance tab and increase or decrease the size of vmdk, add another vmdk and move the partition to an another vmdk etc...

    I hope this helps.

    Kind regards

  • The virtual machine must be moved to another host?

    vCenter 4 runs on a virtual machine on vHost1. When you try to run an update for the virtual server that I have this message.

    The host has a VM VMware vCenter Update Manager or VMware installed vCenter vCenter. The virtual machine must be moved to another host for the remediation process to move forward.

    Before moving running virtual machine to a different host to vCenter, I thought I should ask if there is a better way to update vHost1?

    Thanks for your help. This is all quite new to me.

    Use VMotion to move your vCenter guest, you'll be fine.  Or if you have any DRS value fully automated when restore you one or more hosts DRS will move all of your guests.

  • I can script volume shadow copy service files to copy VSS files to another server?

    Hello

    Wanted to ask if it was possible to take the info created by VSS and move it to another server? The reason why I ask is that I need to information to a file on a backup server, copy it to another standby server and have it ready to go when the original bang goes machine!

    While enjoying the fact than expected jobs work fine with the backup software and can copy the file backup due to another server as a :-) scheduled task I can't put automated restoration work to restore back this folder on a daily basis by using the backup of windows server or backup exec (very annoying!). I was wondering if I could create shadow copies of the file/volume concerned on the original server, and then have a script that has copied the files on the backup server?

    Just in addition, the concerned files/folders are usually left "open" or "locked" (these include mdb files too!) so just using xcopy etc will not work :-(

    Any ideas or suggestions would be welcome :-)

    Thank you very much for your help

  • Why the registry changes or the installation of security updates does not show in the session remotely from another server?

    Original title: the remote Sessions.

    When you install updates security directly on a particular server or change the registry, how is it that change is not displayed when you establish a remote session on this server to another server? My agency uses retina to analyze our servers for security flaws and he always report servers for missing patches or incorrect permissions on some registry settings. When you connect directly to the server, it ends up being false positive hits. Retina establishes remote connections to all servers in the domain to conduct its analysis. This has been an ongoing battle.

    Hi LadyDee68,

    If you stop the database cleanly and then copy all THE files to a new installation of the same version of Oracle on another machine using the same folder structure (a COLD backup) it can not miss anything.

    Re-reading the initial recognition, seeing that they do NOT change the versions of Oracle and do NOT change their operating system, it would seem that a cold backup and a restore would be the preferred method.  Very probably fewer service interruptions and a guaranteed relentless, nothing will 'disappear' from the database...

  • What is the recommended method to configure a web proxy to another server on the LAN?

    I use Server to manage incoming web traffic, but also have another server running I want to use outside.

    I work in directly modifying the site configuration file and adding the ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse directives but these overwritten when the site configuration is changed in the.app

    I want to implement this in a way that is not crushed and is more robust.

    Any advice would be very welcome.

    Thank you

    Gary

    I'm certainly not an expert in the field, but I think you can do what you're asking using the functionality of the Web application.

    You bring a plist to webapps folder and a conf file in the apache folder and then using.app, edit your Web site, and then click Change advanced settings and select the Web application that you created. It should not then be written more if you make any changes.

    The content of the conf file would proxy information in it:

    # of http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypass

    RewriteEngine on

    RewriteCond% {HTTPS} = off

    RewriteRule. -[E = Protocol: http, E = port: 8000]

    RewriteCond% {HTTPS} = we

    RewriteRule. -[E = Protocol: https, E = port: 8010]

    ProxyPassReverse / http://secondserver.example.com:8000 /

    ProxyPass / http://secondserver.example.com:8000 /

    and the plist would be something like this:

    <? XML version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"? >

    <! DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0 / / IN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd" > ""

    <!-see the manual pages for webapp.plist (5) and webappctl (8) for more information on this example webapp.plist->

    < plist version = "1.0" >

    < dict >

    includeFiles < key > < / key >

    < table > <! - include files are enabled in the virtual host then webapp - >

    < string > /Library/Server/Web/Config/apache2/httpd_yourwebapp.conf < / string > <! - name must match your conf file - >

    < key > name < / key >

    < string > com.example.secondserverwebapp < / string >

    displayName < key > < / key > <! - name displayed in app server - >

    < string > SecondServerWebApp < / string >

    installationIndicatorFilePath < key > < / key > <!-the presence of this file indicates web app is installed->

    < string > /Library/Server/Web/Config/apache2/httpd_yourwebapp.conf < / string >

    This is perhaps not completely right, but can direct you in the right direction, I hope that someone with more knowledge will be the chip in the meantime
