• Installing vCenter 5.5 on a domain controller for Win2k12

  Hello everyone,

  I hope someone can help me with what I'm trying to do in my lab at home at little cost (laptop running nested esxi). As suggested by the topics, I try to install SSO, Web Client, the inventory Service and vCenter Server on a Win2k12 that will be a domain controller. What I've done so far (in addition to pull my hair):

  1. install and activate Win2k12

  2. install vCenter using Simple installation

  3. change ports for LDAP / SSL to 3899 and 6369 accordingly (instead of 389 year 636)

  4 adding roles DC, DHCP and DNS

  5 try to promote the domain controller in a new forest = FAILURE because the required ports are already in use, in particular send me questions is 88 port used by the kdc vmware service. As soon as I kill / uninstall VMware SSO, I can promote the server to a domain controller, but then I can not connect to vCenter more.

  Any idea / help will be very appreciated!

  Hello

  My company

  Use VCenter to manage ESXI host.

  This week,

  I'm going to migrate a virtual machine (Microsoft server 2008 with the domain controller

  role) one ESXI server to another.

  If I use

  the VCenter migration feature, it will be work? Or do I have to depromote my

  Server as a vm import/export?

  I want to

  Remember, it'll be safe for this virtual machine.

  Thank you

  for your answer

  Thus, no vMotion but it is no problem to move the client offline excpet they must be offline.

• Questions, communicate with a Windows domain controller

  I thought at first my user had a problem with Keychain and had finally called Apple Tech Support.  While on the line with Apple, we proved that it was not a question of Keychain, but rather a problem of communication with a windows domain controller. The key elements are:

  * Multiple users and Macs are members of an Active Directory multi-domain forest

  * iMac is a 27-inch, mid-2011w / 8 GB RAM

  * OS X 10.11.2 (updated 10.11.3)

  * Question appears isolated to this iMac (currently). All other iMac, Macbook Pro and Mac Pro is currently very well, several VIRTUAL LANs, and a MacBook connected to the connection of network iMacs can communicate properly with the domain.

  * iMac seems not to contact no matter what domain controller when connecting, but connects to the resources of the network and domain controllers, after login. Permissions and access to the resources appear normal after login.

  * User (s) cannot change passwords for mobile accounts or login with new mobile accounts, but accounts/passwords cached work very well.

  * iMac uses Symantec EndPoint Protection for Mac (anti-virus) – REQUIRED BY THE POLICY.  I can't change.  I have come off for the test, but must replace as soon as the test is completed. This policy is set at a level about five grades of remuneration above me.

  * It isn't really everything off the coast of the wall software installs on the computer.  The full Adobe Creative Cloud subscription is responsible, but so it is on just about every other mac I support.

  The steps that have taken place:

  (1) about a month ago, the user went to change his password, but wouldn't go to change password at the login window.  We were able to change their password on the network and could use the new password to connect to the network Active Directory controlled resources. We can connect to resources network successfully with the new password, after we connect locally with the old password.

  (2) we get the red ball (the network resources are not available) to the login window. We are basically connecting with identification and passwords cached information.

  (3) if we try to change their password through the system preferences / users and groups / / password Chang, we get the message that no domain controller is available.

  (4) initially thought that it was a matter of trousseau, and we ended up calling Apple support, since Keychain first aid is no longer available in 10.11. Apple-Advisor while that remote, showed where it was not a question of Keychain because we could not change the password on the domain, because the iMac didn't communicate with a domain controller.

  (5) while on the phone with Apple, we reset SMC and NVRAM without success.

  (6) If you are going to untie the iMac in the domain, a message that the system cannot communicate with a domain controller.

  (7) today, thinking that maybe there was a hardware problem with the ethernet connection, tried to use the private WiFi network. Still would not communicate with a controller domain, but, as if using the wired, could connect to network resources. This happens independently attempted account.

  (8) used a MacBook on its network without any problem, it is not the connection port or switch

  (9) moved his iMac to another connection on one VLAN different. Same question.

  I'm open to suggestions. I have two days to work on this subject, around the planning of production of the user, while I'm off site for a week.

  10) thinking that maybe it was something that happened with 10.11.2, he improved to 10.11.3 today. No change.

  I don't want to try to clean and recharge its iMac, in the hope that this clears up the issue.

  ANY SUGGESTIONS?

  A few additional tests.

  (1) Symantec deleted using Symantec CleanWipe, without modification. Has been reinstalled after additional tests and a reinstallation of the operating system.

  (2) being ran reports, visualization and research now, but nothing is really coming out as noticeable. Only problem seems to be a helper of Adobe

  (3) use a bootable USB key and had no problem with the thumb drive version, this isn't somehow a hardware problem.

  4) entered the recovery partition and the re-installed El Capitan, in the hope that perhaps, is a pilot or something in the protocol stacks have been corrupt, a reinstall would correct. Reinstall has not corrected the problem.

  I'm really strongly leaning towards here is something in a plist or somewhere configuration file that is corrupted, but I don't know where this would be right now.  Will continue research and testing. Last resort will be a wipe up to bare metal and a clean install. I will not migrate the profile of the user, but only its working files.

• Windows Server Std 2012 R2 domain controller

  Hello world. We have problems in the domain controller with Windows Server R2 2012 in the VM that it helps domain users to connect to the DC remotely with admin rights. We have already allowed group policy by default on the management of the user rights that allow remote only for domain administrators. We did not refuse access, because the new user must be added to each new user creation. We do not want to use distribution of the Group deny. is it possible to access remotely to DC?

  Thanks in advance.

• Demotion of a domain controller

  HIE.

  I installed the ADDS on a production server, and it became the only domain controller in the network. Then, I realized some of the services that I was using for my accounting program not able to connect. I then decided to demote the domain controller. After entry and confirmation of the Restore Mode password I hope to return to my original administrator account, but it turns out a new was created. now the services necessary for the opening of session are no longer available and I would return to my administrator account of origin with all its settings and user profile. wanted to know if this is possible and how I can do it.

  I did this first on 2012 R2 server and 2003 server.

  your help would be greatly apprecitiated.

• Windows Server 2012 - create the existing Windows Server 2003 domain controller.

  Hello.

  I am currently working on adding a domain controller Windows Server 2012 and field existing Windows 2003.  My current domain controller (Server 2003) had a level of functiontional of Windows 2000 server, when I first tried to add the server DC 2012.  I changed the functional level of the domain on the Server 2003 Windows 2003 (it is the only domain controller in the tree).  When I try to add the Server Server 2012, he reports that this domain is a Windows 2000 domain.  I checked and restarted the 2003 server.  Does anyone know why the 2012 still sees the field as 2000 functional level?

  Thank you

• migrate domain controller

  I have a server windows 2008 x 86 business as a primary domain controller.  What I want to do is move not only to new hardware but for migrating to server 2008 x 64 so I can install exchange 2007.  I was wondering about what is the best practice to do such.  FYI the source server running a VIA C7D and the destination is a computer that is running vmware esxi 4.1.

  With x 86 to x 64 cast, here is how I see it down:

  Install the operating system Windows Server 2008 x 64 on the new material (fresh and clean) and update/patch entirely.  Dcpromo in the existing domain.  Hover over the FSMO roles to it.  Move all the other functions of the old existing on server.  demote and remove the old server.

  Fact.

• Migration of the domain controller Active Directory of windows 2000 server to a Server 2008.

  I have an old machine that is running Windows 2000 server and it's our only one domain controller in a mixed 2000/2003/2008 server environment. I would like to move to one of the servers 2008 Active Directory and make the PDC and withdraw from the old box of 2000.

  I saw a sea of documentation about the updated/move ActiveDirectory, but no clear examples of what I need to accomplish.

  Can I do a dcpromo on a 2003 server, synchronization of the 2000 box, retire the 2000 Server, then dcpromo th 2008 Server 2003 Server? I know this may seem simplistic to a complicated procedure, but I have not really found anything to support...

  A simple link to a procedure taken care of step by step would be great.

  Thanks for all the ideas in advance.

• Windows Server 2012 domain controller who fails to configure updates, coming back from changes.

• Domain controller 2003 desktop 10

  Hello

  I get a constant error when I try to promote a Windows Server 2003 guest on a DC on workstation 10.0.4.  The error is:

  "Security Accounts Manager initialization failed because of the following error: failed to start Directory Service." The error status: 0xc00002e1. If please clock OK to shutdown this system and reboot into Directory Services Restore Mode. »

  I get it constantly if I invited a completely clean install of the OS with no patches, an installation of SP2 fully patched or create a clone that is bound to a model - I used this model even many, many times with older versions of VMWare Workstation (on the same host) without problem and have done many installs own on previous versions of workstation without problem , so for the moment I can only assume it's related to something in 10 Workstation, as much as I can follow the same process on VirtualBox to create a domain controller 2003 (using the same installation for clean installation media) and get a DC without any problem with happiness.

  I have good knowledge of the AD and followed the instructions in the Microsoft KB articles (specifically KB258062) for the above error and am able to solve and get AD works fine, but then the next reboot the virtual machine the error returns.

  The log file of the client is attached.

  Any ideas?

  Hi all

  Just put an update here for all the world reference.  I solved this problem and a few others that I had where Server Manager on a server OS comments fails with CLR errors or updates would fail.

  The cause seems to be that I was to store the virtual machines on a Pool of storage R2 Server 2012 (Server R2 2012 is the host machine), where I had a couple of discs actually provide a RAID 0 configuration.  I now divide these discs so that they are quite "normal" disks and I shared my virtual machines manually between the discs and all my problems disappeared.

  This only seemed to affect my SATA III 2 TB disks that I have a couple of SSD in a Storage Pool and they seem to work fine (maybe a speed/cache associated effect?)

• With the help of a snapshot on a domain controller

  Hi Experts

  I recently installed Microsoft updates on my domain controller, but now it does not start up correctly even with the last good known it just sits for hours with a blue login screen but it never really ends logon.

  Before I did the update I took a snapshot of the server, I would go back to the snapshot server, I him, y at - it implications while returning from a domain controller to a snapshot?

  I found conflicting information on this subject?

  Thanks, 1 million.

  Clint

  Snapshots for Windows domain controllers prior to the 2012 version are definitely a no-go. With the 2012 version MS adding feature to detect this. However, I myself, have not yet tried...

  In case it's the only ms in your area, it may (no guarantees) work it back to the snapshot. With the other domain controllers in the domain of the way forward would be either a fresh install / promotion or using an AD of an another DC backup and restore it on the domain controller after that go back to the snapshot and start immediately to restored AD mode.

• Domain controller

  Can I assign a vCPU or two vCPU on DC VM?  I read somwhere always assign a vCPU for better performance.  Is this true? any thoughts? Thank you...

  Always set the minimum number of units required.  This gives optimal performance and resource distribution.   A domain controller should never be more than 1 CPU, and if she should only create a second DC CPU 1 to balance the load.
