Virtual snapshot VM with SCSI Bus sharing

Hello

If I should be able to snapshot a virtual machine with the SCSI controllers configured as in the joint? There are two disks attached to the controller SCSI 1, both in compatibility mode virtual.

What I've read, it should be possible that no controller uses the physical mode.

If I change the shared SCSI controller to 'none', instant work but then I can't bring the disks online in the OS because MSCS works.

Thanks for any help.

Instant computer virtual are not compatible with the shared scsi devices.

    Can you get it someone please let me know, we should pass us any other parameter for the addition of SCSI controller with bus sharing physical/virtual disk?

    Yes, the stand is adjustable to all types at deployment time.  You need to change your disk with the correct support add operation.

  • MD1200 unified mode with 2 systems - shared volume

    Does anyone know how to run a MD1200 table in unified with a volume shared between 2 physical systems? The goal is to access the table with 2 different systems with each system see the changes on the other.

    I know it was not necessarily designed for this, but I thought I heard someone say it could be done.

    Any ideas on that?

    Hello StreaqS,

    The only way to make your configuration & change your stay intact data, no corruption is to put both physical systems in a cluster. Without having a cluster in place as soon as you connect the second physical host to the virtual disk, it will corrupt your data.

    Please let us know if you have any other questions.

    then the problem came when I restart my laptop. When I tried to use ICS once again, my customer laptop really takes a long time to connect, he continues saying 'identification' side host and client. and after that "identify" is complete, it says ad - hoc connection, I create has "no network".

    Is it a design valid ?

    • We have remote sites and want to set up DR. As we only SE pare data is therefore no choice.
    • We think of the SAN replication option.

    Have you ever seen / configured such architecture or design?

    Can you please throw some light on this. Thanks in advance for your ideas.

  • Latest installer called "17au your" crashes with a bus error.

    Hey, the most recent Flash Installer immediately crashes with a bus error when I try to launch it. I don't know how to solve this problem outside waiting for the automatic update and see if that fixes the problem. Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem, or how report a bug?

    Thanks, I tried the installer suggested your link who worked offline and appears as 17.0.0.188 in system preferences.

    I had the installer on this machine with 10.6, but I never downloaded this manually from Adobe. An Adobe apeared pop up when I was using the browser to view flash content (television network), telling me that a new version is available. I put in place of Flash preferences to enable automatic updates, but it seems to somehow always suggest me to do with this pop-up window instead.

    I think remember that the automatic update is delayed by a few days, so I usually go for the install on the pop-up button.

  • When exporting data to essbase with L0 members, shared members are also get exported.

    Hi, when exporting data to essbase with L0 members, shared members are also get exported.

    But I don't want to export another hierarchy!

    Example:

    project

    XYZ +.

    ABCD +.

    P00001 +.

    p00002 +.

    GFE +.

    p00003 +.

    p00004 +.

    all the xyz (Label only)

    ABCD (shared member)

    EFG (shared member)

    I want data to be exported only with P00001, 2, 3, 4.

    I think that the OP cannot use Level0 in DATAEXPORTOPTIONS, because not all dimensions are zero-level.

    Cameron, thanks - Yes, it's the behavior of the OP is seen (and disliking).  The share of 'level zero' which is in fact not level zero (in the primary hierarchy) is included in the output.  I think it's the problem rather than replication / repetition.

  • Development on to a hard drive with SCSI Paravirtual supported by VMware

    I've seen a lot of descriptions about how to get the operating system to start with SCSI Paravirtual, but I wonder what VMware is on it.  In the documentation, I remember that SCSI Paravirtual should only be used on the startup not reading disk.  Does not mean just because it's possible, it should be.  Would it cause a support issue or is VMware ok with this practice.

  • What virtual router goes with what configuration

    When close you a configuration creates a virtual router on the host computer, in some cases they are side by side in the list.  But sometimes the virtual router is set up far down the list of the configuration.  My question is how can you know what virtual router goes with what configuration?  I end up having to look at what data store its on and cross-references it with this organization.  Then I look everyone in the configuration for the combination.  Does anyone have a better way to know this?

    Go to the vCenter and choose display "models and virtual machine.

    You should be able to expand the folders to see exactly where each configuration is set up, and routers should be stored with them.

  • Snapshots created with the EqualLogic VSS provider are not displayed in SAN HQ

    Hello

    Poster for the first time. We have just implemented an EqualLogic SAN, PS6100X network, and we're having performance issues between our DPM backup server, one of our hosts Hyper-V and VM images stored on the San. I will try to provide as much information as I can

    Environment:

    Dedicated iSCSI using Dell Force10 switches network

    hyper-V (Windows Server 2008 R2) 3 hosts
    -2 hosts has a NETWORK 4 port GB dedicated adapter connected to the iSCSI network; 1 host has connected to the network iSCSI NETWORK 2 GB dedicated ports card
    -Each Hyper-V host computer has a dedicated on the EQ SAN, RAID-50 volume that stores the Hyper-V virtual machines
    -EQ VSS provider installed on all hosts Hyper - V 3 and works correctly

    Using DPM 2010 for backup

    Problem: on Hyper-V hosts 1 and 2, any/all backup activities are very slow. On the Hyper-V host 3rd, however, activities related to backup all are incredibly fast! We compared the NIC configurations, HIT / settings ME and ASM, but we cannot understand why it is so slow on hosts 1 & 2.

    In addition, whenever DPM 2010 tells the EQ VSS provider to create a snapshot, we see the snapshot being created in the EQ Team Manager, but he does not appear in the list of iSCSI connections. According to the documentation SAN HQ, instant and volumes should appear here.

    We also disabled TcpAckFrequency for all 3 hyper-v hosts. It helped a little, but there is still a HUGE difference with regard to backups of the DPM.

    We're pretty sure that there is something misconfigured on the hosts Hyper - V 1 & 2, given that the host Hyper-V 3 has no performance issues.

    How can I get snapshots to appear in the list of iSCSI SAN HQ connections?

    Version information:
    SAN AC = 2.2.0.5924
    Storage Array Firmware = 5.2.4

    There are two different issues in this post for the SANHQ doesn't show only not iSCSI connections.

    Now SANHQ displays the correct total connection number but doesn't provide details of connections individual iSCSI for snapshots, which it should. So in the meantime use Workgroup Manager that shows the details for each snapshot (I know that's not the best answer, it's a short term solution).

    The fact the SANHQ shows details of instant connection does not mean that they aren't here and I can't imagine anything to do with the question of the DPM.

    The real difficulty, look for upcoming beta SANHQ and subscription for this on the EQL support site. You can do it now.
