VCenter Server Appliance fails without VT in nested ESXi 5.1 support
I am trying to run vCenter Server Appliance in a nested ESXi 5.1 64-bit environment.
At the start of the vCenter Server Appliance, it fails with:
This virtual machine is configured for 64-bit operating systems. However, the 64-bit mode is not possible.
This host does not support VT for more information, see http://VMware.com/info?id=152 .
My configuration is:
Hardware Intel Serverboard S1200BTS
Intel Xeon E3-1230 V2 3.30 GHZ CPU
(This processor supports VT + EPT)
BIOS Intel VT is enabled
Intel VT for directed IO is enabled
Latest version of the BIOS
HW-ESXI 5.1 vhv.allow = "TRUE" is defined
VM-ESXi 5.1 CPU/MMU virtualization - Intel VT + EPT active
vCenter Server Appliance has been installed with the VMware-vCenter-Server-Appliance-5.1.0.5200-880472_OVF10.ova file.
What I'm missing here?

Set vhv.enable = 'TRUE' in my nested ESXi 5.1 makes no difference.
Did you put this in the .vmx file for your ESXi 5.1 VM?

default connection of vCenter Server Appliance no longer works?
Hello
We had installed 5.5.0.5201 VCA and works very well for a while now. At any given time in the last 24 hours the reason, the default root | VMware connection fails to work?
Domain creds for vClient still works, but we are unable to connect to the actual device.
Not quite what our options are, or why this happened!
You may have hit the expiration of the default root account which is 90 days.

I want to enable (set to true) memoryHotAddEnabled and cpuHotAddEnabled on the vCenter Server Appliance.
I can't the powerCLI user because he needs a vCenter Server Appliance to connect to (right?) and to allow HotAdd of the virtual machine must be turned off.
For anyone wondering, the best way to do this is to connect the ESXi host via vSphere Client, turn off the VM vCenter and update the configuration in this way.

VCenter Server Appliance 5.5 update w/o VUM
I'm Manager my first vmware environment. We are a small company and using the Essentials package. I have two hosts upward with a vCenter Server Appliance 5.5 Build 2063318. I'm looking for a way to update the device for security patches. I have not been able to find how to do that when we don't have a Manager Update server configuration. I downloaded the .iso file but have not been able to find all the commands that will allow me to manually install the package. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Note that you must connect vCenter Server Appliance Web Console (VAMI) address: https://vCenterServerIPAddress:5480/ NOT the vSphere Web Client that listens on a different port.

Location of the vCenter vCEnter Server Appliance 6.0.0 vs Linux plugin file
We have a plugin where we were using vCenter 6.0 hosted on a Linux server. I could get my plugin files in /var/lib/vmware/vsphere-client/vc-packages/vsphere-client-serenity and /import/storage.
We then deployed a vCenter Server Appliance 6.0.0 our plugin and it has a different directory structure. The structure of directory changes to /var/lib/vmware.
Where can I find the folder of vsphere-client-serenity or its equivalent.
Or plugins to treat device unlike a vCenter 6.0 linux host?
Thank you.
I found it in/etc/vmware/vsphere-client/vc-packages/vsphere-client-serenity

Setting up Certification Authority (CA) signed certificates for vCenter Server Appliance 6
Hi all
Recently, I managed to migrate to vCenter Server Appliance 6. 5.5, there was a large KB (2057223) on Configuring Certificate Authority (CA) signed certificates for vCenter Server Appliance. I tried to do as it says configure the certificate for v6.
Unfortunately, I understand that some services such as lighttpd are changed in version.
Can anyone provide a new instruction for the v6?
Thank you
Thank you. That helped me to see the idea. However, the explanation in the pages that was not complete. I had to search for more.
This blog helped me solve my problem with the generated certificate:

VMware vCenter Server Appliance 5.1 is not Autostart cluster
Problem:
After a VMware vCenter Server Appliance failure does not start automatecly.
I have configured to start automatecly to each host, but it does not start automatecly.
My configuration:
Shared infrastructure-plate-forme PowerEdge VRTX with 3 servers running
-3 x VMware ESXi 5.1.0 (799733)
-1 x VMware vCenter Server Appliance 5.1
-Servers run as a cluster with HA.
Unfortunately Autostart VM is not supported in a Cluster, and so the settings are ignored. VM in clusters must be turned on manually (or using a script,...).

vCenter Server Appliance "URL of repository" evil
Hey guys,.
new to this entire VMware environment.
I am trying install Win Server 2012 and in order to get installed it, I understand that I have to update my current version to 5.0.0 VMware - 455964 I have for later. I was hoping that it would accomplish this by accessing the VMware vCenter Server Appliance in the section "Update." But when I hit 'check updates' I get a:
Impossible to check updates (error update server being contacted. Please check the network configuration. Couldn't resolve host ' VAPP - updates.vmware.com' URL: http://vapp-updates.vmware.com/vai-catalog/valm/vmw/8e70f769-fd50-4a7a-bee2-2c0d945e23b0/5.0.0.3324.latest/manifest/manifest-latest.xml) on Friday, June 20, 2014 3:02:21 PM GMT - 04:00
Error...
So I try to figure out how to invite to get the URL and (current) right to check with success to FIND an update. And if all goes well install it...
What may be a DNS issue? If so, I have not found a place for the DNS entry. Must be outside of the server appliance?

To configure DNS on the vCSA change the Type of address to SLAAC-IPv6 first and you can add DNS server address and the host name.

Open connections of hosts and vCenter Server Appliance
We have number of ESXi hosts configured in our environment with vCenter 5.1, far ssh is open to all in order to access all hosts via SSH. Although authenticating the users available but, even then, the issue raises so bound / restrict administrators IPs or subnet of the network for security reasons. Will be the same for vCenter Server Appliance.
Also can we restriction of IP level for the Vmware Client users, good that now everyone can make the connection between vSphere and vCenter cleint. Please advice
Hi friend
Please see below the resources needed to achieve the same on ESXi
http://www.definit.co.UK/2013/10/vSphere-Security-Advanced-SSH-configurations/
Restrict access to the ESXi host Console - see the lock Mode. VMware vSphere Blog - VMware Blogs
Limit the vSphere Client access to IP or network - Firewall 5 ESXi & raquo; System administrators

Hi friends,
If patches of the host management can be done through Vmware Update manager vCenter Server Appliance as in vCenter Server.
Tell me other differences between them...
Kind regards
Sirot Vijay
1. Yes we can connect to the device using the vSphere client.
2. in the installation of the update manager VCenter information will ask and he will automatically fit no special measures required.
3. no conflict. Its just like you have two vCenter servers, but you can not have two server vCenter managing the same hosts.

Activate the VCA Mode of VMware vCenter Server Appliance
Hello
I'm pretty new on vSphere. I have two hosts running esxi 5.1 what one of these hosts running the "VMware vCenter Server Appliance' with vSphere version 5.5. I currently have a single cluster containing all the VMS as well hosts and the SAN.
I try to activate the EVC mode, but when I try it tells me that the host is not allowed because there are powered on virtual machines. I can turn off all the virtual machines except the vCenter device and I still get the problem on the host that has the device on it. If I turn off the unit, I can't use vSphere to activate CVS.
How can I activate CVS when vSphere does not work?
Thank you
Jeff
Hi Welcome to the communities,
This one is a bit complicated
You have:
1. turn off all VMs on Host1 (while vCenter device is on Host2)
2 bring Host1 on Cluster, select CVS clustered.
3. put all the virtual machines on Host2 (also vCenter device)
4. connect on Host2 directly to vSphere Client Windows
5. remove the vCenter inventory unit
6. connect on Host1 directly to vSphere Client Windows
7. the data store when the appliance and add it to the inventory of research. Power on
8. connect the device with Web client or vSphere vCenter
9. move the second host in the cluster
And you're done
Concerning

Hi all
I've recently updated my domaincontrollers to R2 2012 WIndows, and I installed vCenter on a vm through the ovf appliance. After you have configured the vCenter in the web gui, I can join the domain successfully and the virtual center appears in the field. After a restart of the virtualcenter, I'm not able to find the field in the client to vcenter under permissions.
