VI Infrastructure Client-> Firewall-> ESXi Embedded 3.5 Server

Hello world

I have a Dell PowerEdge 2900iii with the built-in in ESXi server and want to demonstrate the technology to our customers.  On my laptop, I installed the VI Client.  In our office, where the physical server, we have the port 443 forwarded to our virtual Small Business Server 2008 (on the Dell PowerEdge server) computer to 192.168.1.2 and port 903 forwarded to 192.168.1.3, which is our ESXi (the Dell PowerEdge server) server.  Searching the Internet, it seems that these are the two ports I need of robbing on the ESXi server, but my problem is that SBS requires port 443 for the remote access work.  Anyone know how I can get around this problem?

Thanks for your help,

Mike

Ideally, your ESXi host must not be exposed directly to the Internet.  You have the possibility to establish a VPN connection to the office?  Or you could RDP to the SBS and then run the VI client on it.

  • HA with ESXi embedded

    I just got an evaluation of VMware Infrastructure working with some blades HP BL495 using ESXi embedded (on the internal USB flash drives).

    I configured a data store on a NFS partition on a NetApp data warehouses and the virtual machines will work perfectly and VMotion works correctly.

    However, when I try to create a cluster, I get the following error:

    HA agent has an error: host in Cluster HA must have active swap userworld

    I tried following KB article: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1004177 but am not which way I have to use with a NFS data store. All the obvious options fail.

    I saw a few comments on the web who suggest that it is not possible to use HA with swap userworld of iSCSI or NFS storage. Is this really the case? Is there no workaround solution if it is?

    This scary chain is a real name of the data store. Name only appearing in client VI is just a symlink, so that's ok.

    My recommendation: do not point uwswap to the data store. Create a folder such as ./uwswap/---

  • Confused in what I need [ESXi Embedded; ESX Installable; ESX 3.5]

    Hello team.

    Let me explain what I first: I need to run 6 virtual machines and manage these 6 VMs through a single window. I might be able to manage all VMs 6 using the single window (in general-, this could be any application). To manage, I mean, create snapshots, go back, use them as if I had VMware workstation. I don't need any other features. I'm looking in the plug of the machine: Quad core; 8 GB; SATA RAID.

    Now my question is how do I select ESXi Embedded or Installable or standalone ESX. Is there documentation that shows these differences or videos showing what are interfaces?

    I read the difference between ESXi and ESX and it was something citing on linux required for ESX. Does this mean that my whitebox will need Linux installed before that I could install ESX?

    ESXi is barebone architecture, which means, I'll lose admin capabilities?

    You think, with these questions, am confused? Thanks for any help in advance

    Novice user with virtualization - Manny

    Hello Manny,

    In fact, it's the same interface and the program, you use esx and esxi.

    Free ESXi, esx costs money and can do all kinds of magic to keep near 100% availability.

    You will need to have an admin on windows pc to run the VI client from.

    The VI-client (or VMware Infrastructure client) connects to your host, and from there, you can create new guests, create the snapshot, return etc.

    NO, you don't need linux. In fact my esx 3i is booting from a USB key no OS is required on the hard disk.

    I have attached a photo where you can see the interface to manage hosts.

  • Upgrade on esxi embedded 4.0 to 4.1 using dvd?

    Esxi embedded running off usb key update using dvd?

    I ask because my integrated existing esxi is fucked after I tried to upgrade using AUVs. AUVs process has failed with an error, but after a reboot, the client vsphere Summary tab shows it has been updated (IE to 4.1), but continuous AUVs to draw the attention of this upgrade is missing. I checked using the command line upgrade bundles are indeed missing. I post another thread with more details, after that I'm going through them. In the meantime, can I pass by jumping into a dvd to reinstall esxi embedded on the USB?

    Hello

    There isn't really a difference between esxi embedded and esxi installable. ESXi embedded is installable just esxi installed on a card usb or sd instead of on the hard drive. By this logic, the answer to my question would be: Yes, it can be done.

    Fix

    Just to add that some on-board ship ESXi from suppliers, which add their specific beams/drivers.

    So if you want to reinstall, try to use the specific provider ESXi ISO if available, otherwise use VMware ESXi ISO and install specific bundles of the seller after if necessary.

    The other option is just for the manual installation of the patches/Bundles on your current installation and VUM will pick them up.

    Your ESX3.5i server is not functional in eval mode. It is a free product, but you must obtain and enter a license key. You should have received this once you download the software from vmware.

    I was under the impression that VMIC and ESX3.5i are free tools?

    They are both.

    Is it not the case?

    Yes they are free, but you must enter the free license key that you received from vmware. It has been some time, I do not remember if I have received me by e-mail or on the download page.

    Also, what is the relationship between the server, VirtualCenter and ESX3.5i and VMIC?

    vCenter (VirtualCenter server) is the management server can manage multiple ESX/ESXi hosts at once. It also provides some additional features, such as vmotion, integration with active directory, etc. - it is not free

    ESX3.5I is one of the hypervisor servers based that you run your virtual machines on - it's free, but you need to get your free license key.

    VMIC is the client software that you use to connect to vCenter or ESX/ESXi host to manage your virtual environment, including the ESXi host. -free and can be downloaded for the guests, once installed ESX.

    If someone can point to explanations on this, it will be a great help.

    Yes.

  • Which TCP port is used for VMWare Infrastructure Client?

    Hello, my ESXi server sits on the private network, and I'm trying to PAT so that I can access the external network using VMWare Infrastructure Client Server. Does anyone know what port is VMWare Infrastructure Client listen? Thank you.

    Priscilla

    Do the external network for VMware NAT

    I guess you mean that your server is located in the internal network and Client is on the outside.

    If the customer does not have to "listen" for connections it opens TCP ports - HI 1024-65535 to servers as follows.

    Servers (including GSX) TCP ports: 8222, 8333, 902

    If you have ESX (i) then TCP ports: 80, 443, 902

  • State of the listed material unknown state via API, not so much using VMware Infrastructure Client

    Anyone know if it is a result of ESXi vs say Foundation, company, etc.?  Querying the State of the material using the perl Toolbox storage devices returned the status of "unknown".  While the use of the Windows infrastructure client under 'configuration' then 'State of health', storage devices are listed as with the lights green and 'Normal '.

    through perl toolkit, for example:

    print join ("\t", $host - & gt; name, $hba - & gt; device, $hba - & gt; key, $hba - & gt; model, $hba - & gt; status, $hba - & gt; pilot, $hba - & gt; bus). "\t";

    foo.com vmhba32 key - vim.host.ParallelScsiHba - 4 port SATA IDE Controller (ICH9) vmhba32 unknown ata_piix 0

    To obtain the status of storage devices, as seen in VI Client, you must watch HostStorageElementInfo API. This API gives the State of operation of the various components of storage. To access data from this API, you need to drill down to the next of the object "HostSystem: property

    runtime.healthSystemRuntime.hardwareStatusInfo.storageStatusInfo

    This will give the HostStorageElementInfo table and held the State values, as seen in the VI client.

    Hope this information is useful.

  • ESXi embedded, cannot start the new virtual machine

    We have installed just a Dell PowerEdge 2950 with ESXi embedded.  That part went well.  I am able to connect through the client.  I can create a new virtual machine.  That's where I met problems.  No matter what I tried the machine does not start.  I ' v tried the host device as CDROM, the device as CDROM, and even customer created ISO W2003 CD and downloaded.  I can't understand why he won't start.   Whenever he tried to boot from the network or when he fails he just says "operating system not found" and stays like that.  I started in the bios of the virtual machine and made sure the startup options are correct, etc.  I'm lost.

    I read this forum for like a day and while I see some who have had similar problems, I have not seen this precise question or a question with an answer that applies to my question.  It could be the pre holiday drink

  • Install ESXI embedded will not recognize NIC

    I tried to install a server ESXI embedded last night, but the facility when it does not recognize that there is a network card installed.

    I have a network card added, it's the value connected and connect to power on.  At the beginning I wanted to set up all my virtual machines in a network segment local so I thought maybe it was the question so I turned off the VM and changed the NETWORK card to one host adapter, but the installation always fails with the same error.

    Does anyone else have this problem?  The installation cannot continue without detect a network card.

    I already have a virtual 2008R2 domain controller and NETWORK adapter works fine.

    Welcome to the community,

    ESXi you selected as the guest in the Wizard New VM operating system. The virtual NETWORK card model that is used/created for the virtual machine depends on the selection of the OS. Open the virtual machine configuration (.vmx) file to see what kind of NETWORK card has been created and add ethernet0.virtualDev = "e1000" if it does not exist. If you want to manually change the file mark .vmx that tab of the virtual machine in VMware Workstation is closed, so that the configuration file is reread once you are done with editing.

  • ESXi embedded - record...

    Hi guys, we have some servers with ESXi embedded - they came with ESXi 4.0; When you look at the console it says logging is disabled (all good).  However after update 4.0 U3, he says is no longer recording is disabled at the level of the console - I googled around, but couldn't find any documants on disabling; and I don't want to write logs to the flash all the time.  Can someone let me know how to disable the local recording and just send the logs to a syslog server?

    See you soon

    As written in the KB scratch could be an option... but you can also disable loggin or redirect them to a syslog server.

  • VMware Infrastructure Client hanging

    Hi guys,.

    IM new to the world of VMware sorry, I have a server ESX 3.5.0 Build 82663 on a Dell Poweredge 2950 Server VMware Infrastructure Client 2.5.0 build 84767 on a Dell Insperon running Windows 7 workstation, the question I have is that the VIC has recently started to hang when I try to shoot to the top of the list of the VM on the ESX Server machines. The only way I found to fix it is to reboot physically the ESX Server and then I can reconnect the VIC and get the list and start all the VM images on it, but sometimes it will freeze just when starting a picture and if I click on the power on option, once again, I get a message indicating that you cannot start a power on operation when it is being , and then I'm back to square one where the VIC is frozen again.

    Is it possible to restart the game VIC in the ESX box without having to restart the ESX Server?

    Thanks in advance

    Werner

    How much memory you have configured for the service console? Perhaps, if this isn't there, set up to 800MB.  In addition, confirmed the same behavior by launching the VIC from another post of work?

  • Virtual Infrastructure Client server stop

    We currently manage many machines ESX from a server running Windows 2 k 3 and Virtual Infrastructure Client. If stop us the windows 2 k 3 machine, it will have no effect on the correct ESX servers? All virtual machines will always be operational?

    HA is not dependent on vCenter except for the initial Setup.  So, if you are closing vCenter, maybe just the value of DRS 5 stars leaving HA as it is.  After all if there is a hardware failure, you still want your guests to failover.
