• Checking configuration of the Virtual Machine NIC

  Hello people.

  I put in a virtual infrastructure that separates discrete security (DMZ/Intranet/Extranet/etc.) areas using port groups.  My main concern is to ensure that VM is not accidentally bridged for port groups on two separate security zones.  Someone is aware of a third party or tools included that will allow me to list and checking the configuration of virtual NETWORK map of all VM in my data center?  We use ESX 3.5 and Virtual Center 2.5.

  Thank you...

  Did you watch NetWrix VMware Reporter?  It will monitor and audit of your VMware changes and much more.  Have you thought about streamlining your authorization center VC so that no one else can reach your VM and more groups specified admin settings.  You can then use the tasks & events to see what activities were conducted by users / specific actions.  We have implemented strict access to our systems of VC and the Strip unnecessary permissions to that effect.

  If you found this information useful, please consider awarding points to 'Correct' or 'useful '. Thank you!!!

• This virtual machine to become protected vsphere HA and HA can not try to restart after a power failure

  I got a 5.1 cluster with some problems HA.

  a few virtual machines are showing this

  This virtual machine to become protected vsphere HA and HA can not try to restart after a power failure.

  When I try to reconfigure HA on the host. It times out and fails.

  any idea?

  Instead of reconfiguring HA on the concerned host, have you tried to disable HA on the cluster and enable again? See: VMware KB: State of the virtual machine changes from protected to Unprotected

• I'm looking for a Script that can list all virtual machines with type of NIC E1000 via the output of the CSV file.

  Hi gurrus and LucD

  I'm looking for a Script that can list all virtual machines with type of NIC E1000 via the output of the CSV file.

  The script should search for information in a multiple Vcenter servers and multiple clusters and list all the VMs name, status (two powers on or off) with type card NETWORK Type E1000 only no other.

  Concerning

• vMotion is a failure for virtual machines

  I'm trying to migrate virtual machines to one ESXi to another in the same cluster, it fails in the first stage. Storage and networking are shared and other same cluster different host machines have been migrated successfully. One could suggest?

  Are you a specific error when migrating?

  It's a failure at the end of specific percentage?

  Have you checked reverse migration between different host and no host work?

  Check if the nucleus of vMotion port is accessible from both ESXi hosts.

  If vMotion IP is not the ping requests, check if the IP configuration is correctly performed according to the standard.

  If the IP configuration is done correctly, try unchecking and rechecking vMotion core port of two hosts, it should work.

  Also check that vMotion does not work on dVS and Standard with different IP configuration.

• Remove a NIC vCloud several virtual machines

  Hello

  I am a vCO and extremely raw newbie with JavaScript (a great combination).  My production environment consist of vCenter 5.0, 5.1 and 5.1 vCO vCD. I have the plugin installed vCD and running with Orchestrator.  I am trying to build a workflow that removes NIC1 (NIC 1) of a series of vCloud VMs.  I took a copy of the vCloud Director Library Workflow (remove a NETWORK adapter) and edited the virtual machines of an input parameter to be an array / vCloud:VM.  I modified the taks script so that it loops through the virtual machines in the array and returns their network adapters.  It seems that the network cards are returned as a UID (I have this return to the screen via a System.Log).  This UID is obviously not with that I entered to the workflow runtime - I said "NIC 1" and my workflow will fail with an error "no primary network connection exists; majorErrorCode = 400; minorErrorCode = BAD_REQUEST; vendorSpecificErrorCode = null; (Workflow: remove a NIC 1 / remove the NIC (item0) #22) " Here is the code I use: .

  If (vm. Status! = VclVMStatus.POWERED_OFF.value) {}
  throw "VM is not off."
  }
  var found = false;
  var len = vms.length;
  for (var i = 0; i < len; i ++)
  {
  var VM = vms [i];
  network var cards = VM.getNetworkCards ();
  System.log (NICS);
  var newNics = new Array();
  for (i = 0; i < nics.length; i ++) {}
  If (. itemResource.elementName.value NIC [i]! = nicName) {}
  newNics.push (nics [i]);
  } else {}
  found = true;
  }
  }
  If (! found) {}
  throw 'Invalid NIC name';
  }
  task = VM.updateNetworkCards (newNics);
  }

  As I mentioned earlier, I am a complete newb to vCO\JavaScript and would be really grateful for some input\advice.  If there is a better method to remove the NIC 1 to a litany of vCloud VMs, or if someone has already developed a workflow for this, I would be very grateful for your help.

  Thank you

  
  

  Try this:

  var section = vm.getNetworkConnectionSection();
  System.log("Primary card was NIC : " + section.primaryNetworkConnectionIndex);
  section.primaryNetworkConnectionIndex = 1;
  task = vm.updateSection(section);
  

  He's worked here.

• NIC goes away on a Windows virtual machine

  Someone on my team ran into this problem on the two virtual machines.

  1020718 Ko tire

  ESX 4.x introduced a new feature called HotPlug. In some deployments cards virtual network may appear as removable devices on the system tray in Windows operating systems. Problems can occur if you confuse this device for one that you can safely remove. This is especially true in the VMware View environments, where there is a constant interaction with the desktop. Do not remove the virtual network adapters in the Windows system tray.
  There is a demand for change identified in the KB resolution for our models of windows. I have never seen this before and is reluctant to make changes to the basic models. Does anyone know what specific deployment scenerio causes this anamoly of system tray?

  Hello

  the Connect feature is not an anomaly, and it occurs not only with specific deployment scenarios. It introduces the possibility of adding hot and hot / deletion of certain devices of harware (such as the network interface cards) and to a virtual machine (if the guest operating system also supports) regardless of the manner in which it was deployed.

  An often undesirable side effect is that a user accidentally unplug NIC of the virtual machine by using the tray icon "safely remove hardware...» ».

  You can avoid this by setting the advanced VM configuration which is explained in http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1012225option.

  Make this change to a virtual computer model will result in all virtual machines deployed from this model to have disabled HotPlug.

  It has no negative side effects, so I think only that a certain measure and I would recommend it even.

  I hope this helps...

• Move a virtual machine to a different nic

  I have a host who has four NICs.  I want to separate the traffic from a virtual machine to a specific network card that is not in use now. Currently, the host has configured two vswitches. He can see the four NICs and only two have been associated with the two vswitches.

  I was thinking about adding a third switch and adding the new network adapter.  Can I add the nic to the swith and just move the server itself?

  Thanks in advance for the help,

  Edsel

  Still not sure if I understand you correctly. What you need to migrate the virtual computer to another vSwitch is:

  • create a new vSwitch with a Virtual Machine port group
  • assign an unused uplink (vmnic) to this vSwitch and connect it to a physical switch
  • Open the settings of the virtual machine and change the port in the network settings
  • change the configuration OF the virtual machine if necessary

• Configure 2 NICs for a virtual machine

  Hello

  How can I connect two physical network interface cards in a virtual machine?

  Each NIC is configured on a separate network - but on the same machine.

  is it possible...

  Thank you

  Hello

  Just create 2 vSwitches on the host, allocate the host's physical network cards to the separate vSwitches, then create the Group of ports by vSwitch, in the comments adds another nic and assign it to the Group of ports that you need.

• State of the virtual machine after the host failure

  Hello

  If a virtual machine is running on a host and that host suddenly powers off dirty, like a power failure or a remote access card power the server due to a fault, overtemp etc., what happens to the virtual machine?

  My guess is the virtual machine is actually difficult, dirty off too and if HA is configured, etc it is going to do a full power on sequence. Or is it restart on a new server and be automatically in the same power state with the same States of memory and cpu until the host has dropped dead? So if I got a connection of the DRC in a vm of windows server and the host dies suddenly and it restarts, reconnect to the session even State immediately before the breaking of the host?

  Thank you

  When ESX\ESXi fails due to power failure:

  No configured HA:

  1. all virtual machines is also faces off against the sudden stop. SMV will lose data runtime and all communications (including the RDP connection) will be interrupted.

  Configured HA:

  1 VMs will be powered - on on a different host. However, its the same as a reset of the virtual machine, we will lose any unsaved data.

  VMware FT:

  We ensure 100% uptime for a virtual machine using VMware Fault Tolerance. In case of failure of the host, next time school resumes VM in FT. More details on IP are available at the following link.

• Remove the NIC of the virtual machine running?

  Im trying to remove one NIC from a script and the machine has to be on. I am trying:

  Get-NetworkAdapter $vmname | where {$_.NetworkName - eq "Network 10"} | Remove-NIC

  Remove-NetworkAdapter: 2011-09-28 15:59:24 the VM Remove-network card must be in the following State: PoweredOff.
  At line: 1 char: 101
  + Get NetworkAdapter W7-AutoPrv003 | where {$_.NetworkName - eq "Network 10"} | Remove-NIC < < < <
  + CategoryInfo: InvalidOperation: (PoweredOn:PowerState) [Remove-NetworkAdapter], ViError
  + FullyQualifiedErrorId: Common_SharedParameterHelper_VerifyVmIsInState_VmNotInState, VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Cmdlets.Commands.RemoveNetworkAdapter

  Would I really thing that there is a way to remove the NETWORK card when the virtual machine is turned on?

  There with the ReconfigVM_Task method.

  $vm = Get-VM MyVM $nic = $vm.ExtensionData.Config.Hardware.Device | where {$_.DeviceInfo.Label -eq "Network adapter 2"}
  
  $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec $dev = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualDeviceConfigSpec $dev.operation = "remove" $dev.Device = $nic
  $spec.DeviceChange += $dev
  
   $vm.ExtensionData.ReconfigVM($spec)
  

  Don't know what the risk is, however.

• CV of power virtual machine after a failure to esxi 4.1

  I have a server ESXi 4.1 which is loss of power in the middle of the night. When the server takes over, the virtual machines on the server do not resume. Is it possible to have virtual machines to resume after a power failure? I think remember me this as an option on an earlier version.

  1 - Select host

  2 - go to the Configuration tab

  3. Virtual Machine start / stop option

• Find NIC assigned virtual machine

  As I understand the Port ID load balancing, it is that the ESX Server will assign a virtual machine to the specific NIC on the team.  I would like to know how can I know which NIC is assigned to a particular virtual machine.  We work with our guys networking on a question to Ms. NLB and we need to know certain things.  We have already considered at the level of the router/switch arp tables to find out where he is, but I would like to know about the side of ESX.

  Hello

  The method used is currenlty only how to determine what path to network the mach is assigned to.
