• What could change the ID of the computer used for licenses in the License Manager OR?

  the site of our client we initially implemented our software that uses the Vision Run-Time and Acquisition of Vision software.    We bought a license for the PC and it has been installed. He has headed since July.   But today the customer started getting errors requesting the license. using the License Manager, OR we see "status: activated for another computer.

  look no further, we now see a different ID 'computer' code I have original screenshots when I applied the license originally so I know that the ID of the computer was not a typing error.

  The customer says person only has swapped the PC, but is currently looking to see if any work has been done.

  Someone at - it expirenced this before?

  Quote: Your computer ID is based on the MAC address of your Ethernet card. In some cases, your computer ID is based on the disk volume serial number.

  Well, my computer has literally just sat there week and this morning it me that LabVIEW was not enabled.  I do not think that the MAC address or the disc has changed in that time.  But who knows.  Our IT is pretty bad.

• Update Virtual Center of using SSO 5.1 5.0

  I currently have 5 VC installed on a virtual machine. 1 data center, 4-pole, 40 guests in total. I want to upgrade to VC 5.1 and then of course the upgrade of my hosts.

  I wonder if I should use simple installation or install the SSO, the inventory and VC separately.

  questions: what are the limits of the Simple installation? In the documentation it says for small deployments, but no precise figures.

  Thank you

  Simple installation gives you the opportunity to provide the size of your inventory during the installation, so it could support your environment. The bundled SQL database supports 50 VMS of memory. But if the database is elsewhere is not a problem.

  Theres no reason not to use the regular install, especially with the limitations of install install/basic simple SSO.

• Virtual Center Server

  Hello

  I would just like to double check that we plan to do the following:

  We want to upgrade to vsphere 4 and the first thing we will do is virtual Center upgraded version 2.5.0 in the virtual center of vphere.  After that, it may be a month or two before upgrade us the hosts.  Is there a problem to do this way?  The virtual centre of vsphere 4 will work without any problem with esx 3.5 hosts.  Users will be able to use the new vi client and connect, manage and make existing tasks with the guests of 3.5.

  The existing virtual server is the license server.  I guess all I have to do is update the virtual center with the new license?

  Thank you

  The license server will not disappear, so you just need to keep it around your 3.5 hosts, once they are gone you will add the key code in the vCenter for your other hosts, under settings-> licenses vCenter.  After the upgrade you will need the license for vCenter but not so much for ESX4 until you move in this way, then you can add them in.

• Virtual Center crashes regularly...

  Hi guys,.

  Here's my problem. . Every hour or two Virtual Center stops responding for at least a minute of usually two. If you check execution of the Task Manager on the server of VC SQLservice consumes 50% of the CPU. I am running a local instance of SQL for the VC. I run virtual Center on a server that also ran Veeam Backup server at a time. The server is running anything else. I have no idea on what SQL is trying to do during this period. I used SQL studio to check if there is some sort of work of compression running against the DB or something but I don't see anything there.

  Someone at - it ideas? Is it possible to move the local database to the virtual center to a dedicated SQL server without having to reinstall?

  Yes it's possible, detach from the db and re - join your dedicated sql server.

  Once you do this, change your DSN (ODBC connections) to point to the new sql server

  When was the last time that you have backed up your database (commit transaction logs)

• 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.

• using db even for srm as virtual Center

  Hello

  Is - this possible/supported the same external Oracle rac (11) to serve as srm database the virtual Center, using a different user, of course.

  Or should I have to create a separate database for Mrs?

  Thank you

  Peter

  Hi Peter,.

  SRM requires its own DB, since the SRM DB and the DB Server vCenter have requirements of the other schema. You can find the configuration requirements / information on the DB SRM in the creation of the SRM database in the SRM docs.

  Hope this helps,

• License for Virtual Center 2.0.1 and ESX 3.0.1

  ESX and Virtual Center licenses are retro-compatible? It seems that I can only buy licenses for the current versions of ESX and Virtual Center (vCenter Server), but what I need is additional Virtual Center 2.0.1 and ESX 3.0.1 licenses.

  Yes, they are.

• Incorrect value for its use of virtual computer memory in Virtual Center

  Hello everyone

  I have a problem to track usage of the memory of some virtual machines in Virtual Center.

  The virtual center of the opening interface is reported to me that virtual machines have a use of memory about 95%. Accessible through the console of the machine, however, the Task Manager shows me a memory about 15-20% and 4% of the processor usage.

  The machines in question are among other the domain controller is working correctly.

  Thanks in advance

  Hi dmilazzo,

  I had this problem a few weeks ago. After updating my ESX hosts, this problem has been resolved.

  Are yours up-to-date?

• Installation of SQL Server for the virtual Center Server

  Hi all

  We bought 16 x 2 for ESX server CPU licenses.  So, I will prepare a database of virtual server of the Management Center 16 guests. As SQL Server 2005 Express is installed during installation of Virtual Center Server but VMware is recommended for use only for 5 guests.

  So I would like to prepare a database of SQL for VC server, please help me how to make the database to the virtual Center Server. Are there special tables, configuration, permissions. I have no experience with databases then how should I go with it. Is there a guide for it. The ESX Server installation guide explains only create ODBC connections.

  Please help me with this I would be very obliged.

  I know that the procedure is restrited 2 steps (1 and 2) on page 68, but you need to install and configure SQL Server for your business standard (I guess asking the C: or D: and data/newspapers on E :). I'm not going to explain better how to install SQL Server on a server. For the SQL Server database:

  • Step 1: you create a database storing the files on the right disk (with at least 30 GB) with a default database size to the size defined by the "Calculator" (value of + 15% on the line of your choice statistical level).

  • Step 2: On your Microsoft SQL Server, create a user of SQL Server database with the database rights of operator (DBO). The default database for the DBO User is that you defined in step 1. Make sure the database user has a role of sysadmin server or the role of database db_ownerfixed on the VirtualCenter database and the MSDB database. The role db_owner on the MSDB database is required for the installation and upgradeonly. This role can be removed after installation or upgrade process iscompleted.

  The user must be created for your standard business as service account (password never expires) with a long and complex password.

  Other steps in the document are for the ODBC connection.

  Creating the tables is made during the installation of VC. Nothing to do. A characteristic is not to stop the SQL Server agent because some tasks are scheduled in the database to 'compact' statistics.

  For the record, the database is upgraded when installing patches VC creating of new tables, updating of data type or...

• Stuck to the configuration of the license server to the virtual Center

  Hi all

  I tried to configure VI3 on my laptop and did almost all the configurations below

  I created as a result of VM on my laptop on Vmware workstation 6.5

  -2 Esx 3.5 Server

  -1 open run VM SAN

  -Center Virtual Win2k3 VM

  Everything is going well so far the esx servers start in 5 minutes and SAN targets are visible. But I don't see the Vmotion option on my virtual Center Server (probably because I n, t configured license server).

  I try to add the file licesnse to the file licsencse on the server of VMware, but still no help. I din, t get any mail from vmware with licenses in so attachment.

  anyidea what can be done here?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  Okay, I think that the license server is already there.

  is how to enable vmotion

  in each of your esx hosts

  go to the tab slot-> choose the networking-> click Properties of the vSwitch that is connected to your network vmotion (it must be a network of vmkernal)-> select the vmotion network in the new window and click on edit-> click on the box where it says enable vmotion.

  do this for both servers.

• Virtual Center for a given host list

  OK, I'm sure that miss me something easy here so I'll throw out and see if someone can help.

  I'm trying to do a report on my hosts that lists the number of processor sockets, carrots VMS, cluster parent and Center Virtual parent.

  For the life of me I can't figure out how to find the virtual Center.

  I connect to multiple virtual centers like this connect-VIServer-Server Denver.myorg.com, Chicago.myorg.com, Savannah.myorg.com

  Greetings-

  I see.  Looks like that the property on the VMHostImpl object (returned by Get-VMHost) was not always there.  I was checking against an environment that has the API vSphere 5.1.  I saw, as you have said, that these other properties were not present during the test against an API v5.0 environment.

  So, Yes, as you said - the '. '. Client.ServiceUrl"property of the View object for the host has a string that can be used to infer the vCenter server name.  And, you can still access this property of the VMHostImpl object via the. ExtensionData property.  Something like:

  Get-VMHost | select Name,    @{n="vCenter"; e={($_.ExtensionData.Client.ServiceUrl -replace "http[s]?://", "").Split("/")[0]}}
  

  What do I do?

• Using of MS Cluster HA providing virtual Center 4.0

  Hi, we currently use ESX3.5 and Virtual Center 2.5, I'm about to start an update on all our services for 4.0 VSphere and virtual Center 4.0.  For the moment, we have a node two MS Cluster to connect to the DAS storage that supports Virtual Center 2.5.  I need to know if 1: VCentre 4.0 is supported running on a MS Cluster and 2: are there documents describing the process to create the cluster group.

  I did this several times for VCenter 2.5, but I am not able to find info on VCentre 4 and all my research seems to lead me VCentre Heartbeat.

  Any help is appreciated.

  The "Setup for Failover Clustering and Microsoft Cluster Service" for vCenter 4.1 can be downloaded from http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vsphere4/r41/vsp_41_mscs.pdf and vCenter 4.0 use link http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vsphere4/r40_u1/vsp_40_u1_mscs.pdf
