• How can I download English version of VMware vSphere documents?

  Dear Sir.

  I want to download VMware vSphere documents in English. Because I am now in Germany, whan I start to download, it's always a German version. Is there a link that allows you to directly download the English version of documents?

  Thanks in advance!

  Here is the link to vSphere 5.5 documentation VMware vSphere Documentation -you can download the documentation in many formats, or just read online at https://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-55/index.jsp

• Latest version VMWare VSphere ESXi announcement

  Hello, please forgive my lack of knowledge that I'm not an expert VMWare. I am looking for information on the announced Server latest OS for VMWare VSphere ESXi. I realize that the last version is VMWare VSphere ESXi version 5, but there was no announcement (not necessarily published) of the future releases past version 5. If so, I would be grateful for any information.

  Thank you

  Kind regards

  Gil Lee

  Not yet. vSphere 5.1 is the latest version, but he had published patches (a and b).

  VMware will announce information when they decide it's time for that so there nothing known yet outside on version 6 or whatever they'll call it.

  Thank you

  The definition of "instance 1" is located at http://www.vmware.com/products/datacenter-virtualization/vsphere/vsphere-storage-appliance/faqs.html#licensing

  What the Storage Appliance (VSA) vSphere license?

  When buying on a stand-alone basis, vSphere Storage Appliance is licensed per instance (similar to vCenter Server). Each license supports the creation of a VSA cluster, with up to three knots.

• VMWare ESXi 4 or VMware vSphere 4 Essentials Bundle

  Hi all

  We are size medium no criticism of business when it come to the

  servers and COMPUTER service. We currently hold 10 physical servers in the future

  will be placed on the virtual environment. We already have VMware ESXi 4 running that

  who currently hold 3 VMs.

  We bought the very powerful server that can accommodate more than

  15 virtual machines.

  Specification of the server:

  2 physical processors with 6 hearts

  16 GB memory

  2 TB internal hard drive

  4 * a gigabit network card

  I'm not sure I should install VMware ESXi or pay a

  version of VMware vSphere. The new server will be critical such as servers

  Exchange, BES, Finance server. We do not want to spend more than £1000

  License of VMware. VMware vSphere 4 Essentials Bundle responds to our

  requirements and the budget. I was watching VCB guide and it is perhaps useful

  but it took a lot of configuration, SAN/NAS and extra money (agents of)

  third party software to backup).

  We have SIN, and it is connected to the network switch. Yes, I did

  trying to backup to NAS (70 GB) and it took about 6 hours using FOSS Veem.

  Should I go for free version or VMware vSphere 4 Essentials

  Bundle?

  Thank you

  > What benefits will I have more other free version VCB then?

  Well well with VCB, you can make full backups of you vms, but you can also use with free ESXi as GHettoVCB free tools.

  Also, look here for more information.

• What version of VMware View is compatible with vSphere 5.1?

  Greetings,

  I checked the compatibility tables and I watched that indicated that no version of VMware View was compatible with vSphere 5.1.

  Tom

  You will have to wait until VMware releases a hotfix or an update that is compatible with vSphere 5.1. Usually short gap between the release of vSphere and a compatible version of the view.

• It's recommended to upgrade to VMware Vsphere 5.5 to Vsphere 6 now?

  Hi Experts,

  I learned to download VMware vsphere 6 appears still in beta [Vsphere VMware Vcenter Server 6.0.0b]

  https://my.VMware.com/Web/VMware/info/slug/datacenter_cloud_infrastructure/vmware_vsphere/6_0

  This new version has had a very long beta period and validation so expect very few new issues compared to what happened with version 5.1

  vSphere 6.0 supports only the CPUs available after June ((troisieme quarter) 2006?

  
  

  Can someone please clarify when we upgrade to Vsphere 6 on the production environment. Maybe after the next update?

  
  

  
  

  Hello

  the best thing you could do is update your test & dev / pre-production for vSphere environment 6 If you have one, provided that you check first of all the components of your server in the VMware hardware compatibility list. This way you can find what would work and what wouldn't - it is important to test features like everything first before migration all at once and running on issues later.

  Also sometimes it is possible to wait for the update 1 or 2 update that would have several fixes for stability and performance, etc. - all depends on what support contract, you have with VMware or if you use a free version where you could solve problems on your own (or with the help of the community forum)

• VMware Vsphere HA (problem of storage in common) and problem of band network bandwidth

  Hi all

  I am setting up VMware VSphere HA on ESXI 6.0

  I have 5 hosts running, each host has 2 management networks main network 1 vMotion and 1 network card for balancing with the management network. (each NIC 1Gbit uplink)

  I also attached to each card a FC (Fiber Channel) connected to HP 3PAR storage.

  each host have 1 TB or 2 TB Fiber Channel-attached storage.

  When I was setting up the AP he stated that he did not have any shared how storage can I allow other hosts to see each store data as a shared storage. NB: when I go vsphere client to web I see all the storage of each host.

  I also want to allow FT on a virtual machine, I have also a problem of bandwidth insuffisent or something. .

  also, I enabled fault tolerance on each NIC attached to the host.

  also another question: should I export volumes (LUNS) to all hosts in the AP? (in fact I exported each volume to each host separately) for example:

  Volume 1: HP3PAR_ESX1 exported to HOST ESX1

  Volume 2: HP3PAR_ESX2 exported to the ESX2 HOST

  Volume 3: HP3PAR_ESX3 exported to ESX3 HOST

  .. .etc

  can you me clear on this issue or guide me to where I can solve these problems please.

  When I try to activate the FT on the VM I the following warning attached

  This message was edited by: coolirc attached image FT problem

  There are memory FT requirements compatible VM is through two virtual, primary and secondary computers. so it will consume the same amount of resources of both ESXi hosts.

  VM with 10 GB of RAM allocation, turn on FT booking VM is now 10 GB RAM, so 10 GB + VMkernel consumption General host running primary VM and same amount of the host that is running with secondary VM. on top of this admission control in support of the failures of host we are going to tolerate so say primary VM host fails, then secondary VM becomes the new primary and triggers a new high school to be created and powered in one of the other host survivor in your HA cluster but which will be successful only when you have sufficient resources available to satisfy a reservation.

  your source host has 16 GB of RAM and one of the destination host also got 16 GB of RAM, so if you try to activate pi after disabling admission control on your cluster policy, I think that it should allow you to activate FT without errors. [if it still does not work so if possible, turn off all other virtual machines for free resources or to try to reduce their reservation manually if they are running with a reservation and try again.]

  with admission control, the necessary resources would be even higher.

  screenshot of Cluster summary reports that you have 4 guests in it and the memory resources available about 30 GB to 60 GB total memory. But isn't always the right figure, if you go to the monitor-> book resources, is where you will find actual "ready reserve", it's the right amount of reserve memory that you will be able to use across several virtual machines, you run in your cluster.

  I tried 2 vCPU vm FT in vSphere 6, works very well, but never tried with Hardware version 8, in your case, your virtual machine is hardware version 8, although I'm not sure if it is mandatory to have the hardware version 11 VM for FT so ideally it should work, but virtual hardware version if possible vm upgraded to 11.

• replication between different versions of ESXi vSphere

  Hi all

  Is it possible to use replication between different versions of ESXi vSphere? the scenario is as follows.

  Source site:

  vCenter 6

  RS 6

  Replication Unit 6

  5.5 ESXi

  The target site:

  vCenter 6

  RS 6

  Replication Unit 6

  6 ESXi

  I understand that vCenter, SRM and VRA must match and vSphere replication 6 is compatible with ESXi 5 upwards and it is the vSphere host in the source location that replicates on the VRA rather than a host of ESXi target so it should work, but I wanted a certain Yes/No.

  Thank you

  Definite yes.

• VMware vSphere: optimize and [5.5] course is worth doing or not advice to scale

  Hi all

  Need some advice, as I am preparing to take the exam of the VCAP-DCA 5.5 in April.

  Will makes VMware vSphere: optimize and adapt training aid [5.5] or would be using the DCA official study guide book suffice?

  Just take peoples opinons, before I decide to spend money on the course.

  Thank you all very much.

  JIT

  Personally, I think that if you have below you don't take it out not before, then follow the course (unless you miss the VCP and the requirement of course)

  1 watch the video of Pluralsight VCP and VCAP

  2 buy the VCAP-DCA-5 study study guide bonus ebook on the VMware press - practical site reviews includes in the book

  3. go on the official and unofficial study guide CLI guide study

  4. do you have a host laboratory and practice and practice and make sure you only go on all the (MOST important) action plan.

  Enjoy autolab

  5. If you really need to take the course... you can do the lab connect version of the course which is $ 300 to $ 500.

  If the course if the company paid for the course, and he is not from your Pocket then of course the course.  But your hard-earned income is better spend in

  buy yourself gear lab, subscription VMUG and VMware books.

• VMWare vSphere 4 hypervisor ESXi 4.1 - can buy upgrade to 4.1 Patch 11 again?

  Hi guys

  I have a x 3650 M2 aging IBM server running the free version of vSphere 4 Hypervisor ESXi 4.1.0 260247.

  I'm looking to install esxi version 4.1 Patch11.

  I have a few questions:
  1. I am able to patch to version 4.1 Patch11 without having to re - build the host and re - import the virtual machine?

  2. I am able to buy the paid version of the Patch11 4.1 so I can get the support of VMware? If so where can I buy it.

  3. Alternatively if I can't buy Patch11 4.1 can I buy VMware vSphere Essentials Kit 5.5 version and update without having to re - build the host and re - import the virtual machine on top of the 4.1? My server is about 4 years, I am worried if she composed with 5.5?

  Kind regards

  Aaron

  1. I am able to patch to version 4.1 Patch11 without having to re - build the host and re - import the virtual machine?

  Yes, but a backup is always recommended.

  2. I am able to buy the paid version of the Patch11 4.1 so I can get the support of VMware? If so where can I buy it.

  You can download it for free here: https://www.vmware.com/patchmgr/findPatch.portal

  3. Alternatively if I can't buy Patch11 4.1 can I buy VMware vSphere Essentials Kit 5.5 version and update without having to re - build the host and re - import the virtual machine on top of the 4.1? My server is about 4 years, I am worried if she composed with 5.5?

  According to VMware HCL, your x 3650 M2 IBM server is compatible with the latest version of ESXi:
