vCenter (vCSA) is actually inalterable features - false licensing issue?

vCenter: vCSA 5.1.0.10200 build 1235310

Hypervisor 1: ESXi 5.1.0 - 799733-standard

2 hypervisor (image provided by Fujitsu for Fujitsu servers): (updated) ESXi 5.1.0 - 799733-standard


Recently, I noticed that I couldn't do something productive in vCenter: power on, power off, change settings, almost anything.  Still works fine by directly striking the hypervisors.  After you dig and dig, I noticed - in the web client, rather than the thick client - that we have exceeded the "VMware vSphere Essentials 5 (vRAM)" license of 893150%.  Not a typing error!  He said that we have bought 0.01 GB capacity and use 44 GB right now.  Each host has 64 GB of RAM and Essentials is supposed to be allowed for 192 GB, or so I understand it.


It's only the vanilla hypervisor that signals this overrun, as a 'second use.'  He is also calling it "VMware vSphere Essentials 5", while Fujitsu, it adds "(cœurs illimités par CPU») and has n/d in the second column of its use."


What the reason why this vCenter has stopped working for me - some sort of punishment of license?  Even if not, any ideas on why it is even considered a surplus?  Thank you!

It was finally "solved" by assigning the user root only the role of 'Health' and then returning back.

  • W2K8 R2 Licensing Issue: passes during the migration of parallel hardware

    We have a very old application server run on W2K8 R2 stand-alone (no advertising).  We decide to migrate the server to new hardware.

    Freshly install us the operating system, create user accounts, and install the application on the new hardware.  To play safe, we intend to have a parallel run for 3-4 weeks.

    Our question is: will there be a problem when we apply the OS on the new server license?  Where could I find more resources on licensing issues associated with these migrations?

  • Cannot play DVD movies on due to licensing issues.

    My friend built me a computer and installed a Dvd inside player.  Unfortunately, when I put in the DVD videos, I can't view because of licensing issues.  I know that most other DVD readers can read the videos without these problems.  I think that my dvd drive is an ATAPI iHAS120 6.  Help, please.

  • Licensing issues when I go to re - install on a new machine?

    I had Illustrator CS5 installed on 2 machines (1 license). A machine that crashed, obviously before, I managed to uninstall officially. Did I meet licensing issues when I go to re - install on a new machine?

    Yes, you are noit be able to activate the new installation until you disable the one you had.  Uninstallation is not necessary but disabling is.  You can contact Adobe support using cat and they can manage the deactivation of inaccessible installation.

  • Audio and licensing issues

    I recorded a clip long using Sony PMW - EX1 in SD on location 1 hour and 50 minutes, exported the m2t format on external hard drive file, then imported to the pre Pro CS3 on my computer for editing.  I loaded the clip in the timeline to start to change and the first 30 minutes of audio played normally, then it started during the early.  The last 30 minutes. the audio was lost.  1 hours and 50 minutes video was normal.  There is nothing wrong with the clip-it normally plays in Nero Show and plays normally in place.  Has happened to me before and I Redid the clip and everything was fine.  This cannot be redone. .

    I tried to do a new preferences file No. aid.  I then reinstalled Pre Pro-aucune help.  I tried to reload the clip several times-no help.  I reinstalled Pre Pro new-oops-now my license has stopped working.  I tried several times to phone support, and I tried the web support.  Phone support said they'd call me back - they do not have.  Web site offered for download and following the steps of an article of its base of knowledge (KB401528).  I did and it did not work.  When I went back to article the message says that this article does not exist.  Now, there is a problem with the site that will not let me submit the messages they disappear and are not received.  It seems that all modes of communication with technical support are blocked.

    I'm really frustrated with Adobe Support.  I see a letter explaining there are problems with tech support-not a joke.  Anyone out there have any suggestions?  It is a commercial project with very quickly approaching - any suggestions would be appreciated.  First issue is license issue resolved because Pre Pro will not open.  Also need to fix audio problem.  Thanks - Dorian

    The audio problem is weird. Perhaps it is caused by the lack of space on your C: drive, but he is just guessing. Make sure to leave enough time PR conform the audio before you start editing.

  • What are the SocialMiner features a license CCX can give you?

    Hello world

    We currently use 10.6 UCCX and we seek to use features Web Chat and Email of SocialMiner.

    My company is also looking to procure a stand-alone product for managing contacts with Facebook and Twitter social media.

    A premium UCCX license can also manage inbound social media messages using SocialMiner, or we are just limited to the cat electronic Agent or website through Finesse?

    The documentation I've seen is not really clear.

    Thank you!

    You need a minimum of CCX premium to use SocialMiner. And also need to buy the license server and media. There is no separation of functions in the SM. You can use all the features that result. SM was scheduled for treatment of social message. The e-mail of the agent and the cat has been added only recently.

    Thank you!

  • mgmt vCenter/vCSA and non routable network

    How are they managing get you all vCSA connected non-routable management network without burdening the network mgmt vCSA? I have the VLAN for all networks (mgmt, vmotion, storage) and network of the vm on VLAN 0. When install vCSA you use a routable IP address, but after that, I have to add the network mgmt to the vCSA in order so that it connects to the host, but it does not seem like the right way. vCSA with extra vnic is not supported.

    How do you manage this?

    Well, you need to sort out why one needs a management not routed network. In case it is a safety requirement, you would probably violate it by multiple your vcenter.

    In order to manage your vCenter inventory you would be obliged to get in this isolated NET or create a safe / trust / hardened machine multi-homed "jumpbox" that could be used for management activities.

  • vCenter vCSA unit lost, how to install a new one to take control of the host?

    Hello

    Due to a disk failure, I lost the VCSA control 2 guests. Now I manage the VMs entering each host separately.

    The backup did not work, so I want to reinstall VCSA 5.1 again.

    I read that the first step is to "unpin" the hosts of the VCSA.

    Is there a procedure for this operation? I want to reinstall and take control of the hosts and their virtual machines.

    Will this affect virtual machines running settings? new device "reads" the current configuration?

    I supported the VCSA configuration, but I think that it is not reliable because this time we made changes directly to the guests.

    Thanks in advance

    given that the old vCenter isn't available.

    and as you said that you are able to connect directly to the two hosts, so there is no locking mode either. nothing should be done 'Dismantling' part of it.

    Just prepare your new VCSA, connection inside once the configuration is successful using the vi client or web, create new data Center virtual

    and start adding hosts, the two hosts will be added without problem.

    New VC will be able to reset the account vpxuser password as part of the welcome add treat yourself.

  • vCO 5.5.1 & vCenter 5.5.1 - accessible Datastore: false, only showing freespace and capacity, put in incorrect space service

    Hello

    Properties vc:datastore (GB) and freeSpace (GB) capacity display 0 (zero) in the vCO Client, for all data stores in my inventory (SAN & local). I noticed that the 'accessible' property is set to false on all data warehouses. ProvisionedSpace (GB) shows also the incorrect values. I tried to get the reason for the data store is inaccessible by using the vcHostMountInfo script object, but so far no luck (I think that the release is not a string, so Datastore.host.mountInfo.inaccessibleReason will not work).

    Everyone knows the same question in their environments?

    This is caused by the service of inventory... disable the use of the service of the inventory to the vCO by adding the following line to vmo.properties

  • VSphere licensing issues

    The license is very clear on the vmware Web site.  Could someone tell me what the TOTAL licensing costs would be to run a hypervisor on a machine with the following configuration:

    Dell PowerEdge R910 4U rack server

    Four Intel Xeon X 7560 eight 2.26 GHz processor
    256 GB of RAM - 4 x 800 GB SSD SATA - PERC H700, Dell iDRAC6 Express, four PSU


    By using the Vsphere client to manage.


    So, what would be the ADDITIONAL cost if we added another server, just like it?


    Thank you!

    Hello

    vSphere is licensed per socket. So for your server, you will need to purchase licenses vSphere 4.

    price depends on the edition you purchase (standard, enterprise, enterprise +)

    You will also need to pay the annual subscription fee in order to open calls to technical support and get the major updates to the new vSphere (as from 5.X to 6.X) versions.

    Each additional server must be licensed in the same way, by socket.

    Also for managing more of a server and make use all of the cool features of vSphere, you need to allow a vCenter server, which is licensed by installation.

  • Is a new virtual Center required for deployment of Horizon view 6 / licensing issues

    Hey all,.

    Just curious to know if it is required or existing best practice to install a separate virtual Center for your environment from view of the Horizon, or if it is correct to attach it in your VC.

    Also, reading that I've done, it seems that when you buy Horizon display 6 advances you get ESXi licenses as well?  Is it true.

    When it comes to the Windows 7 license you ave h to buy anything for your VDI VMware or do you just an open license / SA with Microsoft for Windows 7/8

    I think the projections and business decisions will do that for you.   Some circles have separate teams who manage desktop and server infrastructure.  In these scenarios, you can have a dedicated instance for VDI and the office team.     In other environments, you can be a small shop where a couple of technicians do everything.   In this environment, it can be allowed to have a single vCenter.     I still hate the TI depends on the answers, but in this case it really depends on your environment and how you want to manage.

    2: based on the comparison on the site, all the editions come with vSphere and vCenter for desktop.    I read you right, but I would check with a specialist VMware licenses.

    3: Just that you have the licenses required in view and vSphere VMware wants.  They do not all control over your Microsoft licenses.
