• root vCenter device connection refused

  Hello

  facing a problem for the last 4 months.

  I am unable to connect to the root device vcenter account.

  via ssh or local console. raise them an access denied error.

  I tried to see if the password has expired by this article: http://www.virtuallyghetto.com/2013/09/how-to-recover-vcsa-55-from-expired.html

  It was not the case.

  while I was there, I decided to try this: http://www.virtualpotholes.com/post/124746380849/how-to-reset-the-root-password-for-vcsa-60

  has confirmed that several articles said the same thing: http://www.settlersoman.com/how-to-reset-root-password-on-vcenter-appliance-vcsa-6-x/

  saved the file of the shadow, disassembled the drive and rebooted.

  I am still unable to connect local shell or ssh.

  I'm puzzled.

  I found some details on the reason that what was going on.

  When I tried to connect ssh I would just get access denied. even when you connect through the console.

  When I tried to change the console session (ALT - F1) and logging in there I got an eloquent message.

  account locked due to 1342 connection failures

  

  as I said, it's been 4 months.

  any reset procedure I tried worked. However, the account was always BLOCKED.

  According to the documents of the shadow, it was not. but according to the addin to pam tally2 it was!

  following this article (http://www.sneaku.com/2015/06/12/vrealize-operations-manager-6-0-root-account-locked/) and general linux distro forums skimming validated these results.

  I could use to unlock the account.

  Any device?

  Thanks in advance.

  The 7270 was the first that has a Wi - Fi connection, so it * should * have support HTML, but I don't know there was some earlier phones that had the HTML support.

• What is the use of Vmware vcenter device? and when it can be used? is it free?

  Hi guys - when can we see VMware vcenter device an option? Is it free?

  Is that it is contemporary with the linux version of VMware vcenter windows version with Sql express?

  When we use this? Why not to choose windows VMware Vcenter license version if it is available for free? (up to max. 5 hosts and VM 50 s for how long we can use this in our environment)

  Kind regards

  Abhishek Singh

  According to me, there's no difference between vCenter through windows & device licenses.

  You will get vCenter license (as a whole) and now its your choice to deploy vCenter either on windows or deploy the same form of appliance. Once deployed, you must apply the license.

  If you opt for the vCenter Foundation, you will get the same set of features you deploy the VC under windows or as an appliance. It is the same for the standard vCenter license. If you deploy on windows, you need windows license as well.

• vCenter device SCSI Controller

  Hello

  All the world looked at changing the vCenter device SCSI controller? I find it strange that the device is delivered without using the paravirtual SCSI controller, we saw good returns when upgrade to that and I would like all areas if possible (called limits taken into account).

  I appreciate the device is distributed "such what ' and change of way would probably cancel all support, but I'm still curious to know if anyone has tried.

  Looks like I'm the only one with something to add...
  .

  End a call with a VMware engineer who confirmed that the PVSCSI controller is not supported on the existing device of the vCenter. This is because it is running SUSE Linux 11 without service pack 1 is required to support.

  Obviously, the engineer could not comment on future developments, but perhaps a new version of the device will run on a later version of SUSE that supports the adapter PVSCSI.

• Unable to add previous hosts to vCenter device

  Greetings.  We are migrating our guests to new hardware.  We had three hosts for running ESXi 5.5.0 - 1331820 with the vCenter device on one of them.  Everything worked well.  In the process of moving virtual machines around, vCenter device has been deleted (intentionally).  We recreated the device of the OVA 5.5.0.5201 vCenter and ran through the Installation Wizard as previously.

  Now, when you add one of the existing hosts to vCenter, it finds the host and displays information.  When the user clicks on finish, it works quickly up to 80% and the host appears, and then disconnects.  The log shows: add host independent, added host, unable to connect host computer in the data center; connection error host, removed in the data center.

  The error showing is: cannot communicate with the specified host (x.x.x.x). The host may not be available on the network, may have a network configuration problem, or that the management on this host services may not respond.

  
  

  Now the stupid thing is that we can not even add the host on which the vCenter unit is on.  In addition, all hosts and vCenter unit are on the same network of management.  There is no firewall doesn't block all ports.  I read through a lot of the display of the Knowledge Base, and most is in regards to incorrect IP addresses or ports blocked or similar.  I checked through everything and could not find anything wrong.

  
  

  Last thing is that we amazed the ESXi host that had the vCenter device on it and re-installed 5.5.0 - 1623387 ESXi (version a little more recent than before) and reinstalled the that vCenter device exactly as before.  Now we can add that the host but still cannot add other hosts.  So it appears the issue is something with the hosts and not the device vCenter. 

  
  

  Anyone have any ideas?
  

  I run in to the same kind of problems with other factors.

  FWIW, have you tried the following in this order? 1 stop the vpxa on host, 2 service. Stop the service vmware-vpxd on the vcenter server, 3. Start the vmware-vpxd on the vcenter server, 4 service. Start the serivce vpxa on the host. Then try to add.

• automatic start of vCenter device?

  Hello

  3 x 5.1 ESXi in a HA Cluster, managed by a vCenter device 5.1 running in the cluster.

  If I need to stop all of the cluster, what is the procedure to auto start vCenter device so I can reconnect and manange?

  Yes using vi client on one of your hosts.

• Collection of VCM on vCenter device

  How do you get a collection on a device, as opposed to a Windows Server vCenter Server vCenter?

  OK, then you follow the same process for a Windows vCenter vCenter device.  You must configure a Management Agent on a Windows Server, which will make the collection for your virtual environment.

  See Chapter 3 of the guide admin vCM for details and the architecture diagram...

• Configuration for VM cloning sysprep when you use vCenter device

  Hello

  According to the manual - and the ViewPlanner UI, for the layout section, we need to specify the location of the generated sysprep configuration.

  How is this work if we use the vCenter 'Linux' system device.  I copied the binaries of Microsoft sysprep for the/etc/vmware-vpx/sysprep/xp to the appropriate location in the path of the device.  But, these are the Windows binaries and I can't run myself on the Linux-based system to build the configuration.

  How can we on the subject in this case?  The layout makes UI * no * allow us to move forward if the sysprep is not specified.  Perhaps, there might be an option to move forward and make the command sysprep "manually" once clones are created?

  Thank you

  Vinod

  I don't think that you must copy sysprep for the device files, it should already be there.

  You must create a user of VC interface customization specification, not in the camera. In the user guide to see Planner, there are steps on how to do it. I also found another reference:

• 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

  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.
