• VMware vCenter Storage Monitoring Service fails

  Hi all!

  I have a problem with 2 Server vCenter (in bound mode). Do not start monitoring services of storage with the licensing of services...

  How can I start this service?

  At the service of vCenter status, I have an alert 7 (screen attached).

  VCenter Server 5.1.0 version; build 1064983.

  So, I find the problem in config file vcdb.properties to vCenter server (c:\programdata\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\). Have been exposed to the wrong type of data and the driver to use - replaced by db2 for mssql... and the start of the service. Thank you all for the silence

• vCenter Storage Monitoring Service Service initialization failed after the upgrade from 5.1 to 5.5

  I recently upgraded from vCenter 5.1 to 5.5. After the upgrade, I started getting health warnings for the VMware vCenter monitoring of Storage Service that say "failed to initialize the Service." I restarted the vCenter server and restart services several times and who has not deleted the question. When I look in the SMS. LOG file there is no activity in it since I did the upgrade (a week or more there). All prior activity in the SMS. JOURNAL seems to be well upward until the upgrade took place though. I found at least half a dozen KB articles that describe the various reasons why this error may occur, but they all relate to older versions of vCenter. Just to be complete, although I saw the symptoms in the articles and none of them really seem to be the same as what I see. My hypothesis is that perhaps the SMS did not get properly re-installed upgrading because I don't see any SMS subdirectory in the directory \Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\tomcat\webapps but I do not know if this directory must exist on a 5.5 installation.

  If you would be grateful if anyone has any advice for troubleshooting for this type of error.

  Thank you

  Change the credentials of the service account for VMware vSphere Profile-Driven Storage Service to those used to start the VMware vCenter Server service and the service of VMware VirtualCenter Management Webservices. By default, the account used Local System.

  Restart the service, the change was made, and then check.

• VMware vSphere profile focused on service of storage AND VMware vCenter Storage Monitoring Service alerts

  Hi all

  This service is supposed to be there, anyway you can try to repair the installation. This article talks about re - install VMware vSphere profile Driven Storage service: upgrading to vCenter Server 5.0 Update 1, 5.1, or 5.5 fails and the Setup Wizard is interrupted (2017147)

• Where can I download Storage vMotion Plugin?

  Hello guys,.

  I'm looking to download Storage vMotion Plugin in vmware.com but I can't find...

  I have the vCenter Server version 5.1 Build 1235232... Is there something I missed?

  Thanks in advance for your answer

  Best regards

  
  

  Storage vMotion to migrate a virtual machine to another data store.  VMotion allows you to migrate a virtual machine to another host.  If you want to migrate a virtual machine to another host and store data at the same time, the virtual machine must be stopped.

• vCenter hardware monitoring

  We are short of ESX4 U1 with vcenter. We have HP servers, but we have not implemented a System Insight Manager server. Recently we had a drive fail to our camp and did not know until we received a call from the colo. We try to avoid putting in place a SIM server for monitoring equipment. Is there a way for vCenter to monitor material events such as disk failure, etc...

  Thank you

  Scott

  You can configure vCenter alerts to send an email when there is a problem.  We use solarwinds, but you can set an alarm to trigger and send you an email.

  

  Here is an example of how to do to send alerts via vCenter.

• Storage monitoring

  Hello

  I would like to know if there is a way to monitor the increase of records over time. For example, during a week of machinery space decreases 150 GB to 120 GB. Is there a way to monitor what files/records has increased this week. Right now I'm using WinDirStat daily to monitor the storage taking screenshots and comparing them.

  Concerning

  Mr. Green2U

  There is a free app called treesize Jam software that will tell you what, when, and who uses the space

• VCenter storage issue

  Vcenter needs to see all the storage attached hosts have access to? I tried Googling it but could not find a definitive answer. Thank you!

  Hello

  No, you don't have to present LUNS to storage the vCenter Server (if installed on the physical host). It is recommended to have a redundant between the hosts of ESXi and vCenter network connectivity since that is how the pulse information is shared. In most facilities vCenter is a VM and if that's what you have, then you can srtike this step to present LUNS to the vCenter VM. The storage is configured between ESXi hosts and LUNS and vCenter offers a management interface to create/remove the virtual machines on the underlying storage.

• vCenter storage iSCSI 5.5 and shared between virtual machines

  I have just two 2012 Win computers virtual server in the cluster.  I've prested my iSCSI LUNS and the ESX host can see them and I might add in order to become a data store.

  My VMs Win2012 need to share the storage for a cluster SQL database.  I have never done this and everything I tried at this point has failed.  I tried to create the ROW, but that only worked to connect it to a player on one of the virtual machines.

  I'm sure this is possible, but I'm not even sure where to look.  Is it really that RDM is for or is there another way?  Looks like I have would be sufficient to use the initator iSCSI in Windows to connect to my SAN but that would probably slow.

  Any help would be great!

  Yes it can be done - have you seen http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-55/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-55-setup-mscs.pdf

• Space free divergence, esxi/vCenter Storage Manager

  This data shows 231GB free in vCenter store and 760 GB free to HDS (see table)

  How can he show more free to HDS in vCenter? Given that HDS does everything by Thin Provisioning?

  I feel that I'm missing something hahaha

  I mentioned to the Compellent support too, the guy had a look and couldn't see quite why and he will discuss with others and get back to me.

  I don't know that it must be something simple that I'm missing?

  

  Using VMDK provisioned end or thick?

  If you have created your virtual machines with thick VMDK, you VMDK which is great in VMware, but will be considered void by the HDS. HDS didn't write zeros and will show the free space.

• Server vCenter Orchestrator configuration plugin

  Hello

  I enter username and password login to my vcenter, but below error appeared:

  Test result: Exception, ' com.vmware.vim.binding.vim.fault.InvalidLogin: legacy of com.vmware.vim.binding.vim.fault.VimFault: legacy of com.vmware.vim.binding.vim.fault.InvalidLogin: could not complete the connection due to an incorrect user name or password.'

  Plese help me? What username and password is required?

  Hello

  Please try user@domain for configuration of the plug-in. It is sometimes useful to remove the connection and import the ssl certificate before you add the vCenter server configuration. If nothing helps, please add the server.log file.

  P.S.: the user must have administrator rights in vCenter

• vSphere Profile-Driven Storage Service crashing

  Any ideas?

  vCenter runs on a box of Windows 2008 Std x 64 with 32 GB of memory and 4vCPUs. It is a virtual machine. We run vCenter version 5.5 1891313.

  We have a problem where the VMware vSphere Profile-Driven Storage service hangs. Everything started after we rebooted the server vCenter two days ago. The only change we have made to the system installed the NetApp Storage Console plugin virtual on the vCenter server. I deleted since. The event log shows "VMware vSphere service oriented storage taken end with 1 special service error service profile (0 x 1).» Any attempt to vmotion a server causes the error "a general error has occurred: invalid response code: 503 service unavailable '. VMware suggestion is to run a fix for Windows 2008 (not R2), Windows6. 0-KB950319 - x 64. It is referenced in an article KB of VMware. This fix is not applicable, as is wrapped in a service pack already applied. If I try to run wrapper.exe use the wrapper.conf for service, the output is as follows:

  Thank you. I could see this thread before I post my article. Finally, I supported on VMware to help me despite not being able to apply the patch. I was up to a high level engineer who determined that the Inventory Service database is corrupted and to rebuild. After completing this task, everything is now operational. I hope this helps anyone else who encounters this situation.
