vCloud Director for 5.6.3 - level storage disk virtual machine profiles service provider

Hello

A new feature has been ad with vCloud Director for provider 5.6.3

Profiles of storage disk virtual machine level:

Unlock loads such as databases and e-mail servers that require different levels of a single VM disks to balance the cost of storage with performance.

Can someone show me how I can do?  When I try to add a second disk to a virtual machine I can not change the storage for that specific disc profile!

Thank you

It is a unique feature of the API.

I think that this should be the right section of the API schema: http://pubs.vmware.com/vcd-56/topic/com.vmware.vcloud.api.reference.doc_56/doc/types/DiskType.html

  • How can I pay for the reservation of memory on all virtual machines to "0"?

    I am trying to write a script that will pay for the reservation of memory on all virtual machines that are invited in a cluster to '0 '.  We have book too much memory, and this setting should allow VMWare facilities manage reserves memory for me.  I have hundreds of virtual machines to update, so I can't do it by hand.  I hope that it is possible via the CLI.

    Can someone help me with this please?

    Matt example work certainly, and I'm sure that he was going to follow up with something similar to this after having confirmed if it worked or not because it is much more serious on the optimization of code for speed, but I'll (try to) save the effort. To test its extract on a cluster of 45 VMS, it took more than four minutes to complete.  The excerpt below took about 25 seconds.  The difference is of course to use the cmdlet "Get-View" and that it can run asynchronously so (it begins a vCenter task and immediately passes the following).  Of course, this will also put more of a strain to your vCenter server, so keep that in mind.

    $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec
    $spec.memoryAllocation = New-Object VMware.Vim.ResourceAllocationInfo
    $spec.memoryAllocation.Reservation = 0
    Get-Cluster "YOUR_CLUSTER" | Get-VM | Get-View -Property Config.MemoryAllocation | %{$_.ReconfigVM_Task($spec)}

  • Returns the name of the FQDN for a vcenter based on a given virtual machine

    Slowly, I am working on a set of workflow that will integrate a powershell module, I created.

    For my first stream of work, I'm trying to find all the information I need when a user runs a workflow on a VM orchestrator.

    I understood the cluster so far, but I can't identify the right script object that will give me the full domain name of a host corresponding to this virtual machine vcenter.

    Being new vCO does not help much, either.

    I thought that it would be part of VcManagedEntity, but for some reason, this page translates into a big ol' 404!

    https://www.VMware.com/support/Orchestrator/doc/vco_vsphere51_api/HTML/VcManagedEntity.html#configStatus

    I thought that maybe it would be part of vm.runtime.parent.parent but my script results in errors.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you.

    I think that now you are a the right way, the full name of the vCenter server will be localhost, so the answer of vm.sdkConnection.setting.sdkConnection is localhost.

    Maybe this will help you:

    var sdkConnection = vm.sdkConnection;
    var optionManager = sdkConnection.optionManager;
    
    var vCenterInstanceName = optionManager.queryOptions( "VirtualCenter.InstanceName" ).shift().value;
    var vCenterFqdn = optionManager.queryOptions( "VirtualCenter.FQDN" ).shift().value;
    
    System.log( "vCenter Instance Name: " + vCenterInstanceName );
    System.log( "vCenter FQDN: " + vCenterFqdn );
    

    Where I think that the name of your instance will show localhost.

    But the FULL domain name should be the thing you are looking.

    See you soon

  • looking for a script to the list of virtual machines by datastore

    Someone at - it a script that lists each data store, then the virtual machines that are on it. Or maybe the list all virtual machines and data store or data warehouses is located in the virtual machine?

    Thank you

    This should do the trick for you.  In fact, it extends the computer object complete virtual with a property data store so you can still search the other aspects of the virtual machine.

    Get-Datastore. WHERE-object {$_.} {Name - like "DMX *"} | {ForEach-Object

    $dsname = $_. Name

    $_ | Get - VM | {ForEach-Object

    $($_ | Add - Member MemberType NoteProperty-name of store data-value $dsname - PassThru) | Select-object Name, host, Datastore

  • Storage vMotion in vCloud Director

    Hello

    It is already possible to have a vm to a data store to another without interruption in service (storage vmotion ) with vCloud Director. If this isn't yet - it is planned to apply this? This isn't a feature for the Org Admin, but for the vCloud Admin, especially when - storage systems go to replace. And don't tell me to use a storage-virtualization product. Even those who should be replaced one day ;-)

    That would be average cource, Org-Admin would see several data stores during the migration the vapps. One thing to consider is of course how manage fast-provioned vm. Consolidation is no real option, since the virtual machine must be turned off (unless the gui). And of course, it's a unique solution...

    Thank you

    You should be able to use Storage vMotion directly * BUT * there * traps * you need to be aware of:

    (1) you * need * of storage vMotion virtual machine from this data store in your PvDC

    (2) If you use Fast provisioning (Linked Clones) the Storage vMotion, no he will not keep the format of the source, and * WILL * consolidate the virtual machine.

    If you want to keep the disc format, use the vCloud API and the * move * call the API (it will take care of everything you need to keep it as a linked clone).

    Note: I speak on 1.5.x, as you have profile storage & DTS 5.1, you can manage differently with DTS Maintenance mode >

    Hope this helps,

  • vCloud Director or vRealize Automation?

    Hello

    I was hoping I could get some advice regarding the choice between vCloud Director and vRealize Automation. We have set up a test environment for vCloud Director however read some articles, it seems that it is a product that reaches the end of life for businesses, but not for service providers.

    So my question is a service provider should us be implementation vCloud Director or vRealize Automation? We do not want to be in a position to migrate off vCloud in a year.

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Chris

    I can't make any kind of recommendation between the two, because I don't know what you want to do with the products.

    Addressing the availability of the product and the support of it:

    vCloud Director just won't be available to independently purchase and withdrew the license of the Suite from 6.x.  You must purchase the license 5.x to get it (assuming that it is available)... This aspect, if not suite your needs right now until mid-2017 (when vCloud will end support for users of the company).  From 2017, you have to make a decision as to what will replace vCloud or continue to use vCloud Director, even if we will not offer support for it.

    VRealize Automation will meet your needs?  I do not know without knowing your use case and requirements... that is for discussion of a VMware sales representative.

    Apart from all this: VSPP is the VMware service provider program.  A version of vCloud Director will exist for them, but it is precisely for them (members of the VSPP program).  Unless you work for a member of the VSPP program, the statements above concerning vCloud Director are what you think.

    If you are Member VSPP, vCloud Director for the providers of services (5.6.x) is available as the direct vcloud Director 5.5.x successor.  Then by all means we will continue to support these versions, and it can be used to manage resources like a Cloud provider.

    I had a number of people say they are service providers, which is very beautiful.  Be a VSPP means being in a specific program of VMware, which gives access to certain things (which AFAIK is vCloud for Service providers).

    I'm not trying to be harsh or terse here, but I want to just make sure we do differentiation key on what is available to whom and how.

  • White (gray) vcloud Director portal after installation

    Hi all

    I lived the installation guide and saw blog various positions on the vcloud Director 5.1 and all this installation process seems simple enough for me.  The problem is that I keep getting stuck in the same game in all 3 facilities I've tried so far in a test environment.  Whenever I have the installation and try to go for the first time the Installer Wizard url (https://IP-of-vcd-server=http-nic) it just displays a gray screen... no text, no icons, nothing!

    I read some posts on this subject and they got never really at the bottom of it in the comments, so I hope that someone, somewhere had this problem too and can point me in the right direction as to what could be the problem?

    I'm under RHEL 6.3 x 64 with firewall disabled, 2 network cards, installed certificates (self-signed) and vcloud Director 5.1.2 - 1068441.

    DB is MS SQL 2008 running on a server separate from the DB

    I hope someone is able to help

    Can you delete and recreate your database?  I know it's a new facility, but it seems that the DB was partially initialized once and then reused with this installation later.

    This means that the db, create a new one with the same name and account to connect, re - run the script configure once, and then restart the services.  Please make sure that there is only vCloud Director for installation at the start, as always, we can add cells later via a different set of steps.

    The errors are on the decryption of the files, which means that some of the generated ID keys do not seem to correspond to the local operating system files.

  • vCloud Director interface

    Hello

    I have deployed vmware vcloud Director, so I want start using vCloud Director and complete the initial installation

    I Connect the vCloud Director using the URL https:// < address > / cloud

    But although I've installed flash player before, I found this vCloud Director requires Adobe Flash Player

    What can I do to connect to the interface of vCloud Director for the first time?

    Thanks in advance

    There are no that you can do on vCloud Director side. Flash is a requirement. Can you browser other sites requiring flash without problems?

    You may want to use a different browser? Or maybe it's some kind of security restrictions? I would say adding vCloud Director URL (both Portal & consoleproxy) at trustet in internet sites to explore.

  • Migrate virtual machines from HP G7(single host) for HP G8 (Cluster) without shared storage

    Hello

    I have 2 esxi host (hp dl 380 G8) and put them in a cluster and other host esxi (dl 380 g7) and I have no shared storage and use local disks just now I must spend my VM G7 server a cluster of the G8 but I want to know I can join my cluster g8 g7 and migrate web vmware machines without any downtime?

    I want to know can migrate without downtime with localdisk? I have no shared storage

    Best regards

    BAbak

    can I join g7 to my cluster of the g8

    You can mix into clusters hosts all desired, even Intel and AMD at least that you enable EVC on the cluster (of course, HA or DRS require shared storage compatible/CPU). However, you need not to have even just cluster hosts to migrate virtual machines through vMotion between them.

    migrate web vmware machines without any downtime?

    Don't know what this "web vmware' but yes, because ESXi 5.1, you can use"enhanced vMotion"to live migrate virtual machines without service interruption from one host to another, even without shared storage:

    Migration with vMotion in environments without shared storage

    The usual vMotion requirements apply. Also you can only live migrate virtual machines from the old host to the new hosts because of different generations of CPU (and back as long as you don't have bike powered virtual machines on new hosts).

  • Connect to virtual machines across multiple servers of connection for internal/external access

    Hello everyone

    My apologies if this is a silly question, but is it possible to have an individual virtual machine or pool accessible through multiple connection servers? Here is my setup and my scenario:

    Connection to server 1 - direct connect active, PCoIP, serving internal users.

    Connection to Server 2 - live disabled connect, RDP, coupled with a security server, serving external users.

    We seek to deploy Wyse PocketCloud on Wireless / 3G iPad so support for users outside the campus of the hospital can access their desktop.  Users will be expected to have office in the same condition as when they were on campus.  Our doctors are attracted to the iPad, then this will be a test for future deployment phase.

    VMS users are controlled by cs 1.  I would like that the possibility for users to directly connect to their virtual machines using PCoIP when they are internal and RDP via security server when they are external.  Is it possible without using a VPN or live with disabilities on cs connect 1?  I tried to add a virtual machine that has already been setup on cs 1 CS 2 but once cs 2 picks up I can connect is no longer the virtual machine through cs 1. Servers will also relay the reconfigure virtual computer every minute, so this is not the right way to do this.  Someone had customers or users who wanted to make something similar to this?  If so, how did you manage?

    Thanks in advance for your comments

    View what version are you running?  In later versions, you can set directly relate to the level of the server.  So now you can simply deploy a replica of your main connection server that runs Live mode while having your other login server in indirect.   This way you can have a view environment and run your desired configuration.
