vMotion and vReplication on a crossover cable?

Hello

I am trying to configure 2 ESXi6 hosts physically connected to each other using cables ADJUSTABLE. I want to put in place so that vMotion and vReplication traffic happen using the ADJUSTABLE cables. This is my setup:

vCenter - 192.168.130.0

vReplication - 192.168.130.5

ESXi 1:

NIC0 - vSwitch0 - vmk0 (192.168.120.50 - Mgmt traffic); default gateway - 192.168.120.5

NIC1 - vSwitch1 - vmk1 (10.10.10.10 - vMotion, vReplication, Provisioning)

ESXi 2:

NIC0 - vSwitch0 - vmk0 (192.168.120.51 - Mgmt traffic); default gateway - 192.168.120.5

NIC1 - vSwitch1 - vmk1 (10.10.10.11 - vMotion, vReplication, Provisioning)

ESXi1 and ESXi2 are connected using the crossover on NIC1 cable and I tested ping using SSH between the two ESXis and it works very well on the network 10.10.10.x. I tried to select one of the virtual machines offline, then selected vMotion and it fails to approximately 23% with an error "Could not connect to host". Just as an FYI - without cross-over cables and the NIC1 on the two hosts I tested successfully with vReplication, so I know of files can be copied using the 192.168.120.x network.

Can someone please help with this? Help, advice or comments are appreciated.

Thank you

OK figured it. It's the firewall ESXi. I had to activate the 10. range in the IPS allowed for NFC 902. Looks like it's using the cross on connection. Thank you for all your help.

  • Crossover cable VMotion or regular

    Hello

    To configue vmotion between 2 hosts and connect directly with a cable TP, this cable must be the crossover or is this normal?

    Concerning

    OLE

    As you think, both directly connected servers will need a crossover cable, but they may also have automatic detection ports that are used to connect a standard cable.

  • Variables shared by using two computers and crossover cable

    Just trying to put together a simple testbed linking two computers by a crossover cable.  They correctly ping to each other.  I used examples of LabVIEW for TCP connections and they speak properly that way too.  I try to create and deploy variables shared on a computer, but the other computer will not identify not the SV on the first computer and vice versa.

    Can someone give me some details on how to build, deploy, and use effectively SV?  I have read all the documentation NOR, but I don't get the step-by-step approach very well.

    Thank you.

    Are you making them shared variable network published and linking them to each other? This document gives a very good step by step:

  • Connect two PCs using Windows 7 with a crossover cable

    Hi, I used the crossover cable to connect two PCs with Windows 7 pro 64-bit and I did everything right I know, but computers do not display the each other. How can I solve this big problem!

    Default gateway cannot be 0.0.0.0. In addition, computers must be able to talk to each other, so the gateway must match the IP address of the other computer. Right now, the installation program is not talking to each other.

    Try this:

    PC 1

    IP: 192.168.2.1

    SUP: 255.255.255.0

    Gateway: 192.168.2.2

    DNS server: 192.168.2.2

    PC 2

    IP: 192.168.2.2

    SUP: 255.255.255.0

    Gateway: 192.168.2.1

    DNS server: 192.168.2.1

  • Transfer files from the laptop Win 8.1 for win 7 laptop using the crossover cable

    I put the static IP as described (192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.2) and same IP of the DNS server on both machines.

    I somehow got it to work before transferring them to about 10 MB/s (- what its about right?) but have no idea how I did it.

    I now have enough and pleads for help from the experts here.

    I spent a lot of time trying to make it and hope that someone can help me.

    Thanks in advance

    Michael,

    1 I've done this work using IP and DNS Server IP entries different from those that you tried.  Set the default gateway and preferred DNS server on the IP address of the network card in the other PC.

    For example: -.

    On the PC with the LAN card 192.168.137.1 IP address, assign to the 192.168.137.2 default gateway and preferred DNS server .

    On the PC with the LAN card 192.168.137.2 IP address, assign to the 192.168.137.1 default gateway and preferred DNS server .

    2. you must also have a common Admin user name on both machines.  I added that common at the time and used the same password for each of them as well , but I can't now find notes explaining why I used the same password.  Should not be signed as a common user, you just need to use the credentials for this user when challenged at the first opportunity to connect to the PC.

    3. If you want to start over again and check everything again, I discovered that the procedure to a procedure step by step for the creation of a network of Ethernet cable of two computers between Windows 7 and Windows XP with ICS works for a LAN between Win7-WinXP, Win7-Win10, WinXP-Win10.  It seems likely that it works between Win7-Win8.

    4 a crossover between the LAN cable is not necessary.  A standard LAN cable will also work.  The standard LAN cable connection is, apparently, a little slower than a cable connection, but I was never able to see a difference.

  • FT using crossover cable

    Hi all.

    I have a situation where a client wishes to implement FT for a single virtual machine running on a cluster 2 nodes vSphere 6. The fabric of the network is 1 GB and FT requires 10 GB because of the new synchronization method of 'fastcheckpoint' for SMP - FT. A possible scenario would be to install a 10 GB NETWORK card to each host and use a crossover cable.

    Do you think that this would be sustained? Would it still work?

    Thank you very much

    Neil.

    Thanks Matt,

    Good to see that the VMware Lab guys did something similar in the past - which gives me an extra bit of confidence. I understand your point that there is a certain lack of flexibility when it comes to upgrades and maintain the levels of redundancy during a failure of the host and I'll pass these points refer to the end user.

  • Wath is real network setting for webscan with crossover cable?

    Hello everyone

    I have a problem with webscan.

    I have two desktop who are networked with a "crossover" cable one of these computers have two network port I connect my hp 6500 all-in-on with another "crossover cable" to a different port on this computer network.

    my setup ip in computer "1" with the port of two networks:

    192.168.0.1 ===> to connect to another computer

    169.254.199.1 ===> to connect to hp 6500

    my setting ip to the '2' with a single port network computer:

    192.168.0.2

    my hp 6500 ip setting:

    169.254.199.140

    computer 1 can find computer 2 and hp 6500. and 2 computer will find computer 1 but the problem here is that 'the computer '2' is not hp 6500 ".

    Help, please.

    If we don't want my network setting, that is - that's right.

    Note: both my os is windows xp.

    I apologize for my bad English.

    Have you tried to manually configure the IP 192.168.0.3 printer?

    You must also put the printer subnet mask to 255.255.255.0

    Which should allow the computer 1 routes IP printer to computer 2 packets (as computer 1 is turned on and the computer 1 provides routing between ethernet ports).

    It's worth a try.

  • Connect two VSphere ESXi 5.0 with crossover cable

    Hi all! A newbie in the ESXi 5.0

    I configured both servers of VSphere ESXi 5.0 with two network adapters on each server, the first NETWORK card acts as a virtual Internet switch, and the other NETWORK adapter serves only the link of communication (Heartbeat) between two VSphere Esxi 5.0 using crossover cable.

    My question is, how can I create such change in VSphere in a problem of communication between these 2 servers with a crossover cable? I would like to connect my (CentOS 6) VMs on each server via this network adapter with cable modem Simulator for the purposes of the communication of pulsation. I know how to create a normal vSwitch who can communicate with the Internet, but I have no idea how to create a switch for the NICs connected with a crossover cable.

    Please drop me a line if you know how.

    P.S. The idea to use the crossover cable rather than use the simple ethernet cable is the cable eliminates the overhead and to avoid the lack of packages due to the processing time of the switch.

    I know not how to create one with ordinary vSwitch to establish a connection with the Internet, but not this vSwitch with crossover cable.

    There is no difference. Build a vSwitch as your normally would, including the NETWORK card that is connected via a crossover as your uplink cable.

  • Wiring of VMotion and VLan question...

    Hello

    I understand the VLANS and how they work, but I'm not really a 'network' guy and I have a few questions...

    My servers are dl380 g6 with 8 network ports. I intend using two for console service, two for vmotion and the other 4 for my virtual switch of production. I know there is no way of vswitches configuration, but it's my game to date plan.

    My question is how can I configure a vlan and segment the traffic for vmotion? I have 4 ports on my physical switch that I put aside for this vlan vmotion. How can I set this up? Wwhat can I do on the switch and how do I have to create a separate subnet in the DNS? ABLES

    My plan is to pass the cables from the ports on esx hosts I put aside for vmotion to the physical switch ports...

    I'm not too sure about that...

    Thank you! points will be awarded to anyone.

    Hello.

    My question is how can I configure a vlan and segment the traffic for vmotion? I have 4 ports on my physical switch that I put aside for this vlan vmotion. How can I set this up? Wwhat can I do on the switch and how do I have to create a separate subnet in the DNS? ABLES

    What kind of physical switch are you using?  Here is a link to the Cisco documentation to create the VLAN on Catalyst switches.  Create a layer 2 VLAN and create VMkernel interfaces with the appropriate IP addresses.  Don't worry about DNS or Routing and keep things simple, if you can.

    Good luck!

    The printer works at all with this cable?

    The cable has recognized and installed by Windows XP when you logged on to the computer?

    If the cable has been recognized, what steps have you taken to install the printer then (be as accurate and complete as possible)?

    You get an error message?  If so, please provide, without paraphrasing.

    This printer has already been installed on this computer?  If so, with what type of connection?

    And especially, what is the brand and model of the USB to parallel cable?  Many of them do not work.  See, for example, the comments here , which suggests that 25% of the units will simply not work.  This seems to be one of these products you should buy at a local store, rather than on the Internet, then you can continue taking it back until you get a working unit.

  • Please explain SVmotion (Storage Vmotion) and DRS for storage in simple words

    Friends,

    I little confusing... could you please contact Storage vmotion and DRS for storage in simple words and the important points to remember in this regard...

    Kind regards

    Sirot

    9884106697

    Storage DRS is a feature that you allow warehouses of data aggregated on a single object (cluster) and recommend the implementation of disks in virtual machine based on the performance of the store of data and the available space on the data store.

    The DRS storage uses Storage vMotion to migrate virtual (online) computers from a data store to another to balance data store performance and space.

    You can use Storage vMotion without storage DRS too, moving virtual machine between clusters of DRS storage and warehouses of data even from the local level to the data store shared.

    But wait a minute, you mean that the "Num vMotions" and "Num of SvMotions" properties have a value of 0?

    This is normal, since you ask for events for the entity of the group, while you should do it for all the virtual machines in the cluster.
