• While putting the host in maintenance mode, I'm stuck at 2%

  While putting the host in maintenance mode, I'm stuck at 2%

  With the message at 2% it get stuck below.

  "Waiting for machines virtual to be powered off or migrated. In a DRS cluster, see the page of defects on the tab of the DRS for troubleshooting. "

  When you put a host in Maintenance Mode, the virtual machine will be generally migrated to other hosts automatically by the Drs there are reasons why it would not work.

  Some of them are:

  • You do not have DRS licensed (only included in Enterprise and Enterprise Plus)
  • DRS is set to manual
  • You have the DRS, but the virtual machine connected local resources (such as the CD-ROM player,...)
  • You have the DRS, but there are no hosts available because of rules configured to affinity/Anti-Affinity
  • Not available on other host resources

  In both cases, you will have to solve the issue and migrate virtual machines to other hosts or stop the virtual machines. As soon as he has no more power on virtual machines on the host, it will enter into Maintenance Mode.

• The host in maintenance mode

  Is there a way to determine who put the hosts in maintenance mode and when (if there is no tasks/events in VC) VC, D/B.

  Something similar in the context of "that erased my VM.

  THX,

  Lalit

  Of course, look for the EnteredMaintenanceModeEvent event.

  Something like that

  Get-VIEvent -Entity (Get-VMHost ) -Start (Get-Date).AddDays(-7 ) | where {$_.GetType().Name -eq "EnteredMaintenanceModeEvent"} |Select @{N="Host";E={$_.Host.Name}},CreatedTime,UserName
  

  This will search for all hosts in the last 7 days.

• Put a host in maintenance - it will automatically move virtual machines?

  Dear all,

  We have a cluster with 4 guests and we would now like to upgrade each 5.50 to 6.0 ESXi ESXi host. I understand that we need to put the host in maintenance mode. He will automatically move virtual machines to other hosts? I read DRS is necessary. I see that our guests are permitted for Vmotion and HA. We have standard Vsphere license.

  This means in our case, I would need to move manually first of all VMs before the host can go into maintenance mode? In the case where the Vsphere will make work, the virtual machines automatically distributing to 3 other hosts according to the resources available?

  Thank you

  Edy

  This means in our case, I would need to move manually first of all VMs before the host can go into maintenance mode?

  Yes, since the Standard edition doesn't include DRS, you must manually move virtual machines to other hosts.

  In the case where the Vsphere will make work, the virtual machines automatically distributing to 3 other hosts according to the resources available?

  Yes, this would be the case with the DRS in place.

• VMotion fails for a few VM when host in maintenance mode

  When I was performing updates ESX host today, after putting one of my hosts in maintenance mode, I have noticed after a few minutes my migration had ceased.  In one case he required a restart of the virtual machine, in another case, I found that one of the virtual machine is always connected to the host CD ROM

  My concern is that it appeared that, once one or VM have been unable to vmotion, all subsequent vmotions have ceased. Is this normal?  Is there a document that identifies conditions that will prevent the Vmotions?

  Do a manual VMotion on those virtual machines to see the error.

  Generally can be a simple a local CD or ISO local...

• need to get the time host was put in the annotation and maintenance mode

  Hi - it is possible to get the time that a host has been in maintenance mode and also seize any annotation is attached to the ESX host in VC?

  Thank you

  ~ Sai

  Also, by using "get-vmhost" twice is redundant since you have channeled from get-vmhost: "E = { get-vmhost $_ |}". Get-vievent ".

  However, your order will be to return the entire event object and look like:

  Name                                    Event

  ----                                    -----

  host {VMware.Vim.EnteredMaintenanceModeEv...

  You can try below instead:

  Get-VMHost |? {$_. ConnectionState-match 'Maintenance'} | Select Name, @{N = 'Time put in MaintMode'; E={($_ | Get-VIEvent |? {$_. FullFormattedMessage-like"* entered maintenance mode *"} (). " Createduserid}}

  But it can still recover multiple events, so a way to get only the last event and time is below:

  Get-VMHost |? {$_. ConnectionState-match 'Maintenance'} | Select Name, @{N = 'Time put in MaintMode'; E={($_ | Get-VIEvent |? {$_. {"FullFormattedMessage-like" * entered maintenance mode * "} | toplayer-last 1). Createduserid}}

• Turn my vm on after my esxi return of maintenance mode

  Hello

  I create a script to restore config network ESXI. My problem is that I'm missing the order lines that will make my VM on the host to detect that the host is out of the 'maintenance mode' and they will start their car.

  Kind regards

  Michel v

  You have a vCenter?

  If so, these virtual machines are not started on another node of ESXi through HA?

  With the help of an alarm would be an option?

• No VMnet0 network bridged after upgrade the host to win 8.1

  Hi, I have many VM that worked well, and then I upgraded to VM Workstation 10 the other day and all right.

  I ran a few VM after and the network worked. All VMS are defined as connected by a bridge.

  Then I updated the PC windows host 8 to 8.1. Now, when I run VM workstation and run a virtual machine, I have no network connection.

  and I get an error (see screenshot) on no VMnet0 does not.

  If I try and add the network editor VMnet0 and jumpered value or change VMnet1 bridge I get an error see screenshot #2

  No idea what is wrong or what to check. Never had this kind of problem before.

  I checked the services on the host computer and found no VMnet services.

  I have no configuration VMnet0 virtual network editor in and if I try and add that I can't put it as filled. I don't know, I got VMnet

  before installation I think that I just checked Bridged in the configuration of the VM and it just worked before, but do not have now.

  Thanks for any help

  Rainey

  Too bad.

  I got it to work, I closed all the VM.

  Network editor opened and restored by default and it's working now.

  I searched and read that in another post.

• VMotion Port on the host

  I have just a very quick question regarding vmotion on the host port.  I need to change the IP address on one of them and was curious to know if this is something that can be done on the fly.  If I put DRS on manual I am able to change the address of the port without disrupting things?  Any help is appreciated.  Thank you!

  Hello

  Yep, everything you need to do is value DRs manual then go to settings and change the default gateway and the ip address and vlan if need be the vmotion port
