• VCenter server 5.1 patch 1 switch to 3 update?

  Hi people,

  Did anyone here know what is the best way to run Windows VCenter Server 5.1 update 1 in 3 update without problem?

  Because previously there are so many problem in SSO JRE if the upgrade it will not be a veil of sweetness.

  If anyone here knows what else to please share it here.

  Thank you.

  So in my case here, I can make my VCenter update 5.1 upgrade inline 1 in VCenter 5.5 Update 2?

  Yes, you can go directly to the version 5.5 Update 2 on the same path that you go to version 5.1 update 3... Simply run the installer and the old version will be detected and the installer will offer you the upgrade.

  To avoid warnings, make sure to follow the best practices: VMware KB: recommended vcenter Server 5.5 upgrade

• vCenter Server is a virtual machine, how can I update the host

  I have 2 guests in our environment, I have updated the host of the 2nd, but may not know how to upgrade the 1 host because vcenter server runs as a virtual machine on it. This has me thinking that I don't have the installation program as best as possible.

  Basically, we have 2 Guest boxes and a small box of DC. I don't really want to run vcenter on the dc area. What would be the best soltuong for our environment? Can I keep vcenter as a virtual machine? If Yes, how can I update the host it will run on?

  Thanks in advance everyone... Chris

  I was afraid of that say you that

  Well in this case you may need to update the host manually (see for example http://communities.vmware.com/people/vmroyale/blog/2011/09/15/updating-esxi-5--single-use-esxcli-how-to) even with the need to manually update the host on which vCenter Server is running, I would always run as a virtual machine. There is usually not that many updates.

• How update you the server vCenter Server?

  I have a virtual machine in my vSphere environment running Windows Server 2008 R2 that has update manager installed on it and my vCenter Server installation.  After scanning it with the Update Manager, it showed it needed to upgrade VMware tools to match the host and also to modernize hardware virtual machine to correspond also to the host.  I've improved the tools successfully, but when I tried to restore the VM for the hardware, I got the following error message:

  "VM [VM name] has vSphere VMware Update Manager or VMware vCenter Server is installed.  This virtual machine will be ignored for the scan and sanitation. »

  So, how can I get around this because I use this machine virtual also patch/update the other hosts/VMs and this is my installation vCenter?

  Yes, it must be turned off. So your only option in this case is to connect to the host, Vcenter, and then right click to upgrade.  Unfortunately, this is your only option

  E' a po' più quando vuole aggiornare vm complex con db server for it, perche quando if production questa it servizio vCenter sull'altra Può avere problemi.

  A better procedure migliore sia che feeling:

• vCenter Server service does not start after you run Windows updates

  On a regular basis, my vCenter Server service fails to start after the automatic updates of windows are applied.  The vCenter server is a datacenter 2008R2 VM.

  The only other running applications are PerfectDisk and agents of ESET NOD32 - vCenter is in 4.1.  I tried to adjust the vCenter Server and WedAdmin service of delayed start, but that doesn't seem to make a big difference. The following errors are displayed in the case of the newspaper which lead me to think the issue is related to SQL:

  SQL Server is not ready to accept new client connections. Wait a few minutes and try again. If you have access in the error log, look for the informational message that indicates that SQL Server is ready before trying to connect again.  CUSTOMER:: 1

  The description for event ID 1000 from source VMware VirtualCenter Server can not be found. Either the component that triggers this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.

  If the event is on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.

  The following information has been included in the event:

  Hello.

  I didn't know this, but the info in Ko 1007669 may be useful.

• How to change the MOB OpenManage integration for vCenter Server registration

  A few months back, I've updated our installation of the vCenter for v2 plugin, now called OpenManage integration for vCenter Server. When you perform the upgrade, we have kept the old base done vs a new installation. During the upgrade process, we deployed the new device under a new name of the computer.

  Everything works well except that we noticed an annoying thing. Registration of the plugin is the former name of the server instead of the name of the new server-oriented. It is validated by looking at the web page MOB: http://vcenter Server/fmt drilling then down through:

  Content--> Extension Manager--> extensionList ["com.dell.plugin.OpenManage_Integration_for_VMware_vCenter"] --> server--> URL string

  The configuration of the appliamnce shows the correct new name of the device and the administration console is accessible via the new name for the device. The only place where we see the old name of the device is in the MOB config.

  We tried to remove the plugin and added, but still cannot change the value of server URL to reflect the new name of the device. Until we solve this problem, I work around the problem by keeping just the DNS entry for the old name of the server in DNS.

  Anyone know who to change the property MOB for the URL of the server?

  I solved the problem.

  I found the following article that shows how to upgrade the extension. I just cut and paste into my current values with the URL of update and now all is good.

• VMware vCenter Server service stops or restarts at the start of data collection

  VMware vCenter Server service stops or restarts at the start of data collection

  I am using vCenter Server 5.0

  Whenever I have begin to collect data, vcenter service stops or restarts, if I stop data collection and to disable the agent, vcenter service again and works well.

  Please any help!

  Thanks in advance

  It is a known issue, relating to the collection of historical data being enabled (nonzero) in the properties of the VMWare Agent on the Agent status screen.

  Change to 0 to disable/re-enable the agent and it should fix the problem.

  Please open a ticket of level 1 with telephone support if you need more help.

• Multiple Instances of the same vCenter Server listed

  I uninstalled and then reinstalled the installer of VMware vFoglight for agents of collector/connector on my vCenter server. It is now listed twice in my console vFoglight. How can I delete the duplicate entry?

  Hi Gerry. There is an option to remove the old date within the FMS. Vizioncore gave me a doc that explains it.
  in the left menu, go to foglight-> servers-> data-> vmware model management
  Here, you can select the vc to remove... but be careful with what you remove! Make sure that the right vc :-)
  If you led the whole tree and restart the service of Fogle, it should disappear... give fms a few minutes to delete (depends on the size of the data) before restarting the service... cheers, patrik

• VMWare v6.0 to 6U1 or 6U2 Upgrade - external PSC - 1603 errors in vCenter Server

  Hi all

  I was wondering if someone met the upgrade a version 6.0 VMWare install to U1 or U2 upgrade and received a 1603 error.

  The installation runs correctly on the external PSC, but when running against the vCenter Server fails and has a 1603 error and did a restore.

  The VCSServiceManager component installation failed with error code "1603". Check the logs for more details

  I tried all the other threads suggesting to have .net installed 3.5, the ipv4 stack and database permissions but are all there.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  For those who have encountered this problem in the future, was the way I solved this:

  Question has been connected to the VMWare SysLog Collector Service. There is a problem with the new syslogcollection MSI being able to upgrade, uninstall or reinstall on the legacy.

  Best way to solve this problem is to remove the reference to the old service of library of Windows Setup syslog collector. The way I did it was to use the Windows Installer CleanUp legacy.

  Post this, remove installation held as scheduled and transmitted "installation VCSServiceManager.

  If you come across this issue - you can test it by trying to run the msi syslogcollector contained in the directory of files binary vCenter.

• Service component of VMware Manager fails to start in vCenter Server 6 Update 2

  Hello

  A brief idea of my test environment:

  VCenter servers:

  VC1 - recorded at the psc1 in Site1

  VC2 - recorded at psc2 in Site2

  External Services platform controllers:

  psc1 - Site1

  PSC2 - Site2

  SSO domain: vsphere.local

  I upgraded from vCenter Server 5.5 update 3d to vCenter Server 6.0 Update 2. VCenter 5.5 servers had integrated / embedded of SSO and all services running on the same machine and were in modes related before the upgrade and I have them removed modes related before the upgrade. They have been upgraded to vCenter Server 6.0 with Embedded PSC and they entered automatically improved Linked Mode (ELM).

  After the previous step, I deployed the PSC external psc1 respectively 2 and psc2 mode of replication with vc1 and vc2 in the same site Site1 and Site2. I migrated then boarded two PSC vCenter servers to their respective partners external PSC of replication by running the command cmsso-util reconfigure - repoint-PSC "psc1/psc2" - administrator user name - domain name "vsphere.local" - passwd "Hasło_Administratora." This operation ended successfully and my vCenter have been reconfigured as vCenter Server with external CFP.

  After that, I followed article KB VMware 2127057 (agreements ofdetermination of replication and the State with the service controller 6.0 platform (2127057) |) The VMware KB) do psc1 and psc2 external replication of the PSC 2 partners either by running the command vdcrepadmin-f createagreement-2--h psc2.clifford.local h psc1.clifford.local u Administrator w 'Hasło_Administratora '. I ran this command psc2. Also, this operation succeeded, and when I ask the State of replication of the psc1 of replication partners and psc2, there is nothing wrong. However, after restarting my vSphere Infrastructure, I see that vc1, psc1 and psc2 have all their services started successfully.

  VC2 services seem to be failing, especially the service component manager of VMware which is required for many other services start. The VMware HTTP Reverse Proxy service starts properly and I have no IIS role / feature installed on my machine. The error message that occurs when you try to manually start the service is also attached as a file Error2.JPG in the discussion. The Windows event log error is as deeply as the file Error3.JPG in the discussion.

  Please let me know how to solve this problem as soon as possible.

  Well, I found a solution myself.

  In fact, after I created the external PSC 2 psc1 and psc2 partners of replication of the vc1 and vc2 in Site1 and Site2 respectively, I had to immediately follow section KB VMware 2127057 in order to create a replication agreement between the 2 external to the PSC psc1 and before psc2 I reconfigured and show the vCenter servers vc1 and vc2 of on-Board of the PSC outside the PSC following the VMware Documentation (Center of) VSphere documentation 6.0).

  That's all.

  Thanks to all for looking into it.

• vCenter Server

  In case the server vCenter Server has encountered a problem and needs to re-setup of vCenter, what happens to what follows? They will always work?

  1. high availability

  2 DRS (automatic)

  3. distributed switch connectivity

  4 vSphere replication

  5. Advanced vSphere of data protection

  6 site Recovery Manager

  7 cluster VSAN

  During the time where the vCenter server is unavailable.

  1. high availability - Yes, but the management of Cluster HA is possible only when your vCenter gets online

  2 DRS (automatic) - No.

  3. distributed communication switch connectivity - Yes, the VMs will not face questions, data flow is managed completely by ESXi hosts, but your DVS control plan is not available to change the Setup in it.

  4 vSphere replication - work should, don't know if.

  5 vSphere Data Protection advanced - should work, not too sure.

  6 site Recovery Manager - no.

  7 cluster VSAN - Yes, but the handling of the VSAN that we are using vSphere Web Client is going to be affected.

  and if you need to re - install server vCenter completely. so in this case, you need to take action based on how you re - install your vCenter. For example, if you have fresh installation complete you vCenter server then you need to start building your vCenter Server inventory and take steps to add your ESXi hosts in this new inventory.

  many different references

  Distributed failure vSwitches and vCenter, what's the problem?

• vCenter Server 5.5 requires a reboot

  Hi all

  We need to restart vCenter Server 5.5, and it is running on a physical server and also hosting DB SQL on the same physical server.

  Please let us know what precautions to take before restarting the vCenter server.

  Kind regards

  Ajay

  You can restart the vCenter server as you would any other server system.

  Once the server is online. Verify SQL service, vCenter, all are running.

  As you run SQL locally, then it would be preferable to set the delayed start for vCenter server service and vCenter management services.

  While the SQL service start first, then the vCenter services.

  as usual, you can take backup of SQL DB or windows system state backup, but this is not a sine qua non for vCenter reboot.
