vmkping to the loss of packets of san storage

Hello

Today, I have one of the ESXi4. Host (USB started, not any physical storage on local) have a problem.

Dtx200 (inactive) identification.

Screen Shot 2011-08-20 at 4.37.42 PM.png

SSH for the host and try to make a vmking for SAN storage.

When I do a vmkping d

I got this:

Screen Shot 2011-08-20 at 4.47.45 PM.png

But when I vmkping to the ISCSI SAN (DELL MD3200i) storage, I had packet loss.

Screen Shot 2011-08-20 at 4.43.34 PM.png

I had packet losses, and I can't connect to the SAN from DELL (MD3200i) storage.  I therefore had no datastorge on this host.

And I have a different ESXi4 host with a local hard drive, I don't have this problem.

Hope someone can give me help.  Thank you!

Have you already double check the physical connections (cables) from the host to the switch and switch port settings!

Do you use frames? If so, how you have configured the MTU size to the physical switch?

  • Need help in the choice of VMware DR SAN technology

    Hi all
    I look at which one is the better choice for DR environment?
    between SAN based technology replication or 3rd party application (Veeam Backup and replication, or VMware Site Recovery Manager).
    my situation is that I have running for most VMware ESX virtual environment as follows:
    1. production environment that is mixed HP DL 380 and the server blades with EMC Clariion CX4 - 500 FC - SAN
    2. planning for DR environment that uses the same model of server, but still think that SAN technology that we could use for replication between two sites. The recovery site is not necessarily to be as fast as the current production and the SAN cannot be EMC
    Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    you will need almost the same model in order to achieve the SAN replication by using the built-in function of SAN storage. If this is not possible, you may be able to virtualize the SAN, so that both are of the same type. One way is using HP Lefthand VSA or Falconstore.

  • Reports on the TMS - network packet loss

    Hello world

    I'm seeing packet loss reports in TMS, but there is no info here.

    My network is: VCS 7.0.2 movi, c20 and ex60 registered (SIP) as well as a TMS 13.1.2.

    The vcs is a starter pack and the TMS is the demo version. I first registered endpoint of the vcs and then added the TMS to the network. I have the endpoints addition and vcs to TMS. In TMS, I see the endpoints and the news on their topic, but unfortunately no information in the report of packet loss. I made a call between movi and c20 with packet loss, but no info has been shown in the report.

    I am very new to the TMS, and I wonder if there is something I should be doing in order to make endpoints send info packet loss to TMS.

    I sshed in endpoints and I can see the info on packet loss and jitter through the api.

    Described above is my test network on which I can make prety much all about. I also have the same problem (this time with EX60 endpoints, control VCS and TMS) on a network of clients and on this network that I really need this job.

    Any help would be appreciated. Form what I read end points to send this info by HTTP to MSDS. Am I wrong?

    Thank you for your help.

    Hello

    Endpoint to send your comments to tms on http Yes. I'm not at the office and this cannot be verified at the moment, but I don't know if devices running software like c-series and ex support tc this packetloss reports, I know the MXP legacy for this. If anyone can check it out that would be great. If this isn't the case, I will check it tomorrow.

    At least, you can check that endpoints send your comments to the tms at all looking at the system in the browser tab newspapers.

    Check the trap logs. If you see connect and disconnect traps here, feedback should work.

  • HA with the loss of SAN connectivity

    Hi all

    We organize three identical hosts of the ESX 4.0 U1 configured in a Cluster like HA and DRS using CF to shared storage.

    Each host has 4 network adapters and HBAs FC 2. We have run some tests to see if the VMotion moves VMs when there is a hardware failure.

    VMotion works very well when manually move us the machines among hosts, when we disconnect a host on the network, and when we power down.

    The problem is that when we remove both cables CF of a host which is running VMs these VMs even if they seem to be running, they are not available in the network, or through the Console and VMotion does not occur to move the State of the virtual machines to another host.

    Is it possible to configure a host to move running VMs when losing connectivity to shared storage?

    you do this will alarms a little, but I do not believe, you can trigger an event of vMotion, but you can initiate maintenance mode.  Here's a good example

  • Packages oversized can cause loss of packets with Dell PC6248

    Hello

    We are seeing packet loss on our voice network which causes the phone sometimes sounds without interruption.  This could be the result of oversized packets (more details below).  On a separate note, if I transfer images using Windows Deployment Services multicast it floods all ports (so I don't more :-).  I had initially activated IGMP but he already caused the switch block at random which may have been connected with firmware earlier.

    We have the fairly simple network:

    1. 3 Dell PC6248s connected in a star (dist 1 and 2 switches access) topology connected together with LAG trunks running latest firmware.
    2. Several VLANS: voice VLAN (100) production data for IP phones, the vlan 1, dev on vlan 5.
    3. IP phones are mainly Aastra 9133i popular with some Polycom.

    I dug more and we are seeing a certain 'oversized packages' on the LAG trunks.  I was wondering if it is at the origin of packets to drop.  If Yes, can I change the MTU size to 1522 (I read that marking adds 4 bytes to the default MTU of 1518) or is there a configuration error I forget somewhere?

    Thanks!
    

    I've been searching through your configuration and try to spot something that may be the cause, but nothing is really jumping on me.

    On the phones they have workstations that connect to their internet access? Or is it just the phone itself?

    One thing we can look at the practice enables jumbo frames. Jumbo frame can be let through all ports and the switch will still go from regular sizes. Extended frames must be activate through all the connections at both ends, once activate on the LAG on a switch, you need to activate on another LAG switch also pass to the back.

    Console (config) # interface range ethernet 1/g1-1/g48

    Console (Config-if) #mtu 9216

    Console (Config-if) #exit

    Console (config) # interface ethernet port-channel 1

    Console (Config-if) #MTU 9216

    Console (Config-if) #exit

    Make sure that you back up the configuration in the startup-config on the switch.

    That a try and see if there is a change in behavior.

    Thank you.

  • Loss of packets randomly, but only on windows clients

    Hi all

    I worked on this problem for a few days now... I experience intermittent but only on Windows guest os packet loss. Here are more details on the problem, the network, and what I have done.

    The problem:

    Loss of intermittent package at random on the operating system called windows of the sometimes stable, sometimes up to 4% loss of packets for short periods of time. NO problem on FreeBSD, Redhat 5.6 comments or Oracle Linux 6.

    The platform:

    V4.1 ESXi on a motherboard Intel based server built into the House.

    8 GB ram

    1 intel gigabit nic

    Intel E8200 Proc

    high use 4 comments

    2 Redhat 5.6 (my sandbox) 2gig ram, 100gig, 1cpu (usually power off) 1 NIC Flexible 3, VMWare tools installed

    The network:

    ESXi fed through manageable Cisco switch, Vlan 10 is management vlan, 20 is WAN, 30 is invited, 40 of DVR. pFsense firewall across all data control the VLAN. All OS invited on vLan 10.

    What I did to try to solve the problem.

    Hardware changes:

    1 replace former cisco catalyst switch with a switch SG200 newest. (Nice little switch, incidentally. I recommend)

    2. replace all connection cables, including patch esx box switch and all the range of cables for patch panel that feeds the physical domain-joined computers.

    3. replace the physical NETWORK card to the server (3 times, 3 different maps NETWORK Intel all)

    4. change of individual hard drives in a Raid 10 running on an Intel SAS (6 450gig 15krpm drives) raid controller

    Changes to the software

    1 changed all network cards in all the boxes of windows of E1000 to VMXNEXT 3

    2 disabled TCP Chimney on all windows boxes.

    3 reinstalled all windows systems of fees instead of boxes of physical conversions. The reconfigured all from scratch, reinstall all the software, did all the patches.

    At this point I don't know where else to go to try to solve this problem. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I checked your packet capture file, there is a checksum error and, it seems, due to the activation of unloading of stain on your win box, try disabling it, this may solve your problem.

  • Close programs to prevent the loss of information. Your computer is low on memory. You save files and close programs. Java (TM) Platform SE binary Windows Media Player

    Hello

    I keep getting the following error message, and leterally having my computer off over and over again, even if I added 1 GB of RAM (now 3 total RAM) mor and also added a 8 GB SD card as more power:

    Close programs to prevent the loss of information.  Your computer is low on memory.  You save files and close programs.  Java (TM) Platform SE binary Windows Media Player

    I did research on the various search engines to know that many face the same problem, with a variety of possible solutions, but so far, none work.  We suggest that I go to Regedit and change the permissions of the user and then delete the old files, after I import them.

    Needless to say, I am just a user and have just a bit of technical knowledge.  The local PC repair shop in my town has no idea what to do.  For anyone who has a solution to this problem, help will be greatly appreciated!

    Randy Kline

    First of all, unless you know EXACTLY what you do and WHY you do it. I personally recommend never do anything in regedit. I consider myself a moderate to advanced computer user and a moderate user of windows. And I always stay away from regedit, if I can, because you can seriously screw things if you don't know what you're doing... Although, to be honest most of the settings will not have a devastating drama.

    It seems to me that this is a memory leak in the program, you will get this error message to make sure that your computer will just crash, because if she is running out of RAM... Well it will crash.

    If you have a 2 and a 1 GB for a total of 3 GB, I recommend the upgrade once more and just round up to a nice 4 (this is the most of memory a 32-bit system can handle in total)

    Works of memory in a way that you see really only a few performance jump with memory dual channel, the only way to have that is really striking the rods of same in each slot.

    There isn't really a reason that this happens every time, except that simply your computer is low on MEMORY, when your computer says this means RAM, not disk memory storage area.

    If you clean your computer of the programs you never use and stop using windows media player (itunes is better in my opinion, even if you don't have an ipod), you can see an improvement, but to really isolate the problem, I recommend simply opening your task manager as soon as you start your computer (ctrl + alt + delete usually gives you the option or it opens directly) otherwise you can do start-> RUN taskmgr.exe , OR type taskmgr.exe in the search box and press on enter.

    Then, look at the column of memory as I said it sounds like a program has a leak, and you will see that is because memory will begin at low/normal and then numbers just keep climbing...

    Also, make sure that your computer recognizes all 3 GB or RAM. in Task Manager if you have access to the performance tab, under physical memory must be a thing called Total, 3 GB = 3074. If this is not an option in your reason, you can go under Accessories/System Tools system information (on the start menu). (may take a while to load) but on the home page, you should see something that indicates the amount of TOTAL PHYSICAL MEMORY. You want to read this / 3GB or 3074 MB.

    Hope this helps some!

    I recommend to remove all programs, you are ready to, especially those that you never use. Do a complete uninstall. Then start installing windows clean (download google) just to make sure that the program has been removed. then go start--> run msconfig OR just type msconfig in the search and click on go (I don't know if you're running XP or Vista/7)

    In the msconfig dialog, you should see a section that says startup. Don't forget to remove programs that you do not first. Disable startup programs, you use every DAY. Don't go turn off all if windows needs some process to run, and some processes don't effect anything. But if you're curious, you should be able to google all of startup items and see what it's related to and why you do or that you don't need.

    Good luck! Sorry, I'm everywhere with this response.

  • Can feature FLASHBACK DATABASE undo the loss of control of file/ORL?

    DB version: 11.2.0.4

    Platform: Oracle Linux 6.4

    I personally have not tested the FLASHBACK DATABASE feature. I came across examples of logical errors such as truncate Table being overturned on FLASHBACK DATABASE.

    I guess that FLASHBACK DATABASE feature may undo the loss of the data files. But will be a loss of control or the Group of newspapers online file again defeated using FLASHBACK DATABASE?

    Hello

    "I guess that feature FLASHBACK DATABASE can cancel the data files loss." Do not assume, check it out

    Flashback database cannot cancel the loss of data files, control files and redo log files.

    Flashback Database limitations

    Because Flashback Database works by undoing changes to data files that exist at the present time when you run the command, it has the following limitations:

    • Flashback Database can only undo changes in an Oracle database data file. It cannot be used to fix the failings of the media, or recover the accidental deletion of data files.
    • You cannot use Flashback Database to cancel a file of data reduction operation. However, you can disconnect the wizened file, flash back, the rest of the database, and then later restore and restore the shriveled data file.
    • You cannot use Flashback Database only to retrieve a data file. If you Flash back, a database at a time when a data file exist in the database, that the entry of data file is added to the control file. You can only recover the database using RMAN to fully restore and recover the data file.
    • If the database control file is restored from backup or re-created, all the accumulated flashback journal information is ignored. You cannot use FLASHBACK DATABASE to get back to a point in time before the restoration or re-creation of a control file.
    • When you use Flashback Database with a time of target during a NOLOGGING operation was underway, corruption block is likely in database objects and files of data that is affected by the NOLOGGING operation. For example, if you perform a direct path INSERT operation in NOLOGGING mode and it runs from 09:00 to 09:15 April 3, 2005, and then use you Flashback Database to return to the target time 09:07 on this date, the objects and data files updated by the direct path INSERT have finished block operation Flashback Database corruption. If possible, avoid using Flashback Database with a time or SCN coinciding with a NOLOGGING operation. Also, perform a full or incremental backup of the immediately affected data files backup after each NOLOGGING operation to ensure recovery of points in time after the operation. If you plan to use Flashback Database to return to a point in time in the course of an operation, for example a direct path INSERT , consider performing the operation in LOGGING mode.

  • VSAN guests can access the FC SAN storage at the same time?

    Soon we will invest in new ESXi hosts and we want to design them for the ability to VSAN. But since VSAN is a fairly new technology, we also want the same hosts to act as our old guests and have warehouses of data in our SAN (FC SAN attached storage) environment.

    Host VSANS have access to VSAN and FC SAN storage at the same time?

    What advantages and disadvantages do you see with this design?

    Yes, there is nothing to stop an ESXi participating both host a cluster VSAN, and also had access other storage taken in charge of protocols such as NFS, FC, FCoE or iSCSI.

    However, you will not be able to use the LUNS or Volumes presented on NFS, FC, FCoE or iSCSI for storage VSAN.

    VSAN requires local disks to build the VSAN data store.

    I guess the only concern would be the additional management that comes with having many types of different storage, but this is true even if VSAN wasn't in the picture.
