vCenter Server Service does not start after P2V

Hello community.

A problem that I have not been able to solve and looking for help.

Problem:

vCenter Server Service does not start after that Windows Server was P2V would be.  We get an ERROR 2 of the Service.  Get the error of the system Windows 7024 event log.

History:

The client, I currently work with that tries to smash to the high location of the DEV VCENTER.  Location of DEV vcenter works now all for this site (domains, dns and all development servers).  If its VCENTER PRODUCTION of this location.  Currently, SQL Server (dedicated to vCenter), VCENTER and SSO are all sitting on the same box.  Let's break the SSO, SQL and VCENTER in their own servers.  However, the client wants to re - use the current physical server for SQL Server.  So I need P2V physical server existing until I can start the new environment.

I was able to get all of the services working on the virtual vCenter (SQL, SSO, Update Manager etc etc) but have been unable to get the real vCenter Server Service works.  Fails every time with the 2 ERROR Code.  I was unable to get a KB of VMWARE item that corresponds to the issue I'm having.  ERROR 2 code has many articles and none have worked.

Details:

vCenter 5.1 Build 799731

SQL 2008 R2

Windows 2008 R2

When the vCenter Service tries to start it will stop at the 50% mark and gives this error: (I removed the names for security reasons)

Windows could not start the VMware VirtualCenter server on <server name>. For more information, see the system event log.  If it is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor and refer to service 2-specific error code

When I saw the Windows system event log I get this error:

EVENT ID: 7024

The VMware VirtualCenter Server service stopped with the error special service that the system cannot find the specified file...

When I go through the vpxd log file I see this at the end of the newspaper: (I removed the names for security reasons)

I pulled the virtual machine in a laboratory and all network problems that would be removed to isolate.  Now the VCENTER is shouting at this topic it can't find one of its guests in the vdxp log, but that shouldn't matter.  All Services have been changed for local accounts.  All network and ODBC parameters are able to see the server... aka the server can see.  I didn't remove any software or drivers for the VM (techniques it is my third P2V to the same server for testing reasons)... And the only thing that won't start is always VCENTER SERVER... SSO is started, SQL is launched...

Also everything remained the same on the virtual machine (DNS, IP, NAME etc etc). Stop the physical and start-up it upward don't show any problems.  Only when its summer P2V would have done that themselves.

I can't get this number.  Need help.

Thoughts?

Thank you

BostonTechGuy

In this case, we have finished rebuilding the vCenter and all migrate on.  Wish had better put up-to-date, but ultimately, it's what has been done.

Thank you

    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.

    (1) check check DB connectivity - according to your type of database via ODBC

    (2) check the vpxd.log file and capture the symptoms of failure (focused on mistakes just before the closing msg vCenter service)

    (3) search DB size values and details of free space

    (4) is it any change password next to DB? If so update via command-line vpxd.exe

  • vCenter VC service does not start

    vSphere 4.1 running on WIN2K8 R2 ENT 64 bit.

    The center of the vCenter Server virtual server service does not start.

    I migrated just box 32-bit physical in a 64-bit vm and the following documentation for VMware, I migrated to the database successfully last week. Everything seemed to work ok after. However, when I arrived this morning, I noticed that I can not connect, so I opened vSphere client on the host computer and consoled in. I noticed that the service wasn't working, so I tried to start it and I received the following message:

    Event ID 7024 with the following in the system log:

    "The VMware VirtualCenter Server service stopped with the error special service that the system cannot find the file specified."

    I restarted the VM server, but neither VC service or Web services Mgmt Services were running. I started VC temporarily, but he stopped.

    I checked the system event log and found this error event:

    "The service of Server VMware VirtualCenter ended unexpectedly. It has done this 1 time.  The following corrective action will be taken in 300000 milliseconds: restart the service. »

  • CF8 will of Application Server Service does NOT start

    I came across this error:

    means: Java heap space

    and after researching it, it seemed to me that I should to the maximum segment size on the page Java/JVM, so I increased my heap size max to 1044 MB of 512, via the CF administrator, I also added the maxPermSize = 256 m.  Then I restarted the server, but the Application Server service will not start.

    I opened home/runtim/bin/jvm.config and define the segment of memory of 1024 size, restart, the service still does not start.

    Set the size of heap max 512 and removed maxPermSize, server rebooted, service still does not start.

    A value equal to the java.args set :-serveur-Xmx256m-Dsun.io = false .useCanonCaches - xx: MaxPermsize = 128 m - XX: + UseParallelGC-Dcoldfusion.rootDir={application.home}/... /-Dcoldfusion.libPath={application.home}/... / lib - Dcoldfusion.classPath={application.home}//lib/updates, {application.

    Restarted, the service still will not start.

    Someone at - it ideas?

    The error that I get trying to start services is:

    Windows could not start the server to ColdFusion 8 applications on Local computer.  For more information, see the system even log.  If it is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service provider and therefore the 2 service-specific error code.

    Thank you!

    If you have a backup of the file config before you made the changes, restore this file.

    If this isn't the case, it seems that you have a few typos and extra spaces in your arguments.  For example "-xx" should be capitalized and '{application .home}' has a space after 'application' that shouldn't be there.  Note that the JVM arguments are case-sensitive.

    Here are the arguments for a working copy of the CF8, use at your own risk and your backup configuration file before making any changes.

  • Windows Firewall service does not start after the removal of Virus

    Hello

    I believe that my son's computer has been infected with the Trojan.Agent.Ed virus.  I managed to remove it (from different folders in AppData), but a few vestiges remain of course.  The windows firewall service does not start - it throws an exception to access denied on startup and when I try to start the service manually.
    I tried to run the Sysinternals Process Monitor to display all events ACCESS DENIED and checked the permissions on the key to registry MpsSvc in HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\services and compared to a corresponding Windows 7 machine.  I've even exported the key MpsSvc and sous-branches of the laptop in good health and tried to import into a failure, but the import does not seem to occur, even if it gives a message "imported".
    I also tried the troubleshooting of Windows Firewall that confusedly says:
    "Windows could not start the Windows Firewall... Not fixed
    "Set permissions for the registry keys involved"... succeeded
    "Windows Firewall service is not started. Not fixed

When I do a reset of the network through the network Publisher configuration and simply accept a dynamic allocation of IP address to things normal race comments. The same configuration works fine on Windows 7 Pro host. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you for using our product.

    I tried the same set upward on Win7 and Win8.1 host, both of them work well.

    So I guess that there is a syntax error when setting up vmnetdhcp.conf.

    Maybe missing ';' at the end of each line?

    Application error event ID 1000

    Just rebuilt the VCenter server, was faster than to try to fix it.

  • Service does not start after change of IP address on the server of SRM

    Here is the log.  The IP address has been changed, but I don't know how to take the side of MRS.?

    I tried this on my own server and that you couldn't make it work.  I ended up just reinstall SRM, keeping the same database - NBD since most of the settings are there anyway.  Later, I came across a blog (which I can't find now) that said that VMware supports only a reinstall after changing the IP address.

  • 11.1.2 opmn_EPM_epmsystem1 service does not start after server move

    Moved our 11.1.2 Windows 2008 SP2 (not R2) 64-bit machines from one domain to another (test for prod) and reconfigured the repositories to production SQL server (2005). Configuration is all green, and yet the EPM_epmsystem1 won't start. It sticks at the start and after some kind of time-out.

    We run as administrator of thought that would be the problem but nothing helped. We tried the delivered but script in order to use either.

    In the directory E:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\diagnostics\logs\OPMN\opmn of the opmn.log shows that this:

    [2011-01-19 T 14: 48:44] [opmn] [NOTIFICATION: 1] [90] [OPMN]

    John,

    had it solved and it was weird and forgotten on our part. In our test environment, we do not have DNS server set up and so we hard-coded IP addresses in the file of the windows server host name.

    Once we have removed the ip address in the hostname file the service started.

    Always the little things... Thanks for the idea as always
