• Replacement of host existing with the new host/material

  We are trying to replace our old 5.0 ESXi hosts that cannot be upgraded to ESXi 5.1 with new hardware that will support ESXi 5.1 and beyond.  Existing hosts are members of a cluster of vCenter vCenter has been updated to the latest version  We are preinstalled ESXi 5.1 on new hosts and tried to set them up according to the configurations of existing hosts, except for host names and network IPs management.

  First of all, are we on track to replace existing hosts?

  Second, what are the next steps we would take?

  We have read the various messages that seem to follow the steps below, but want to ensure that our incense are applied correctly, we don't miss any major or minor measures, for iSCSI, reusing names existing ESXi hosts and IPs or something else causing the replacement to fail.

  1. the vMotion VMs to host existing to another host

  2. remove the existing host to vCenter

  3. stop the existing host

  4. turn on the new host

  5. Add the new host to vCenter cluster

  6. apply the configuration changes

  7. the vMotion VMs to new host

  8. follow the same steps in the next new host

  We lose all the steps?

• Positioned on the new host, iPhone deleted old emails - where are they?

  Recently a company I work with just changed hosts. When they did, the new e-mail was similar to the old access (POP), to try to make the process as transparent as possible.

• Problems with the new host VMware ESXi 5.0

  We have a dell blade chassis, with 4 710 blades and 8 610 the 710's have 12 network cards and the 610's have only 6 network adapters. I added a new host on one of the 610's and two network adapters in each of the networks belonging to virtual infrastructure. 1 mgmt 2. ISCSI 3. vmnetwork

  My problem is that the new host can see all the resources but I can't move the VM from the hosts to the host 610 710. I get an error because nic 2 on the 710 host is not in the same network as nic 2 on the 610. It seems silly that I wouldn't be able to do that just because the hardware is not identicle.

  I have three vswitches, vswitch0 for management, vswitch1 for the iSCSI network of shared storage, vswitch2 for the network of the vm.

  Thanks for any help.

  Material is not identical not should not have an impact.

  The vSwitch port group to which are connected the NICs in question is named identically on both hosts?  If they have a different name, vSphere considers different networks.

• VCenter upgrade 2.5 - 4.1 and move to the new host

  Hi all. Sorry for my ignorance but I'm completely new to vmware. I picked up a client who curently ESX 3.5 and Vcenter 2.5 running on Server 2003. I want to move it to a new host of 2008 and updated server to Vcenter 4.1. I've read some suggestions that a clean install would be better vs an upgrade. I'm really looking for the fastest solution that will allow me to manage the virtual machine in the new host of 2008 with vCenter 4.1. Please give me a few pointers (possibly hand holding ) on this process. Thank you!

  I'm not a DBA, but take a look here: http://kb.vmware.com/kb/7960893

  Also, take a look at the Data Migration tool...

• Installed the new host of the cluster issue

  I have currently two hosts that are in a cluster - I installed a new esxi server to add to this cluster.

  1 set up the vswitch for grouping etc... as the other guests

  2. cannot see other data stores.

  You are using an iSCSI device, I guess?  ESX material for the new host is right for the existing hardware?  If you want to disable the unused adapters, which must be done in the BIOS.

• connecting the new host of vmfs - what could go wrong?

  I just set up a new server ESXi 4.1, and I want to assign a logical unit number that contains a VMFS (v3.33) data store used by 4 ESXi 4.0 hosts.  I did this procedure several times before (no thanks to the combination of versions of the host, though), but I still get nervous.

  Is there a chance that something bad could happen to my data store when I connect the new host to it, or it's just my OCD Act?

  If you follow the above instructions to Dave, you have nothing to fear - if you take the right approach by being very careful with storage issues.

  Changes in versions should make no difference at all, as long as lon as all the ESX host attached to storage support the version of the data that store connect you.

  Good luck - and don't stress!

• [HELP] Problem with the restoration and recovery in the new host

  Hi, guys!
  
  I have tried for two days, but still can't make it work.
  I took a hot (online) full backup archive as well as the control file logs with the SPFILE and then copy the backup to the new host with the same directory structure and parameters. Finally, I tried to restore and recover the database on the new host, but failed during the restore process.
  
  The original host and the new host have the same subject Oracle installed until the patch level. I couldn't understand the solution to this problem based on my knowledge on Oracle DB.
  
  Could someone help me out here? Any advice would be appreciated!

  In short, the RCS of the controlfile will be generally higher than corresponding SCN of the data in the event of hot backup (online) file; However, the two SNA will be the same in the case of cold (off-line) backup. Am I entitled?

  Yes, it's true. In a backup cold (assuming that the CLOSURE was not a SURRENDER but was NORMAL, TRANSACTIONAL, or IMMEDIATE) all files in the database (data files, redo log and controlfiles files) are 'compatible' - at the same point in time, to the same SCN. In a hot backup, the files are updated. RMAN is not necessarily take all the data files at the same time - for example when you have several data files, RMAN would backup the files in batches of 4 or 8 - data files are therefore controlled at different points in time. Similarly, the controlfile is saved last.

• SSI does not not on the new host

  Hello
  
  Moved site to a new host, and the SSI is does not load correctly. I copied the complete site for the new host, and I'm sure everything is copied across. I had no problem at all, configuration, and use of SSI on the old host. According to the cpanel, in Apache handlers, SSI is enabled on the new host. Only the name servers point to the former host still, until I can get the new one works fine.
  
  "I used DW to create the code originally, like <!--virtual="/ssi/rhs.html #include "-->
  
  where ssi is the folder that contains the two include files.
  
  New hosted site is here http://ans25.midphase.com/~saacpar0/
  
  Old site with SSI work is here http://www.saac.com.au/
  
  Can anyone help on this please?

  Thank you Alan and Murray.

  I thought that it could be something like the temporary site link. Thanks for your info on this Alan.

  Murray, thanks for you comments as well. Set them too.

• Unable to connect to the MKS: the certificate of the remote host has these problems:

  Hello

  We have a host of ESXi 4 cluster running any vSphere 4.1.  Recently, I started to upgrade to update 2 and all the additional fixes.  After the upgrade of the vCentre server to the latest version (or maybe before I can't noticed) an of are hosts began to show the following error whenever I tried to connect to the console of any guest on this host.

  Unable to connect to the MKS: the certificate of the remote host has these problems:

  It lists any problems at all and no error display in the event log that it simply does not work.  I had a prod around the internet and found nothing.  I then rebuilt the host to exclude and the problem remains.

  Any help would be much appreciated.

  Thanks in advance

  David

  If you can connect to the Console remotely using VMware Infrastructure (VI) Client connected directly to the host, take a look at vmware KB to connect to a remote virtual machine fails with the error: the certificate of the remote host has these problems

  but more generally - remove host to vCenter inventory and then add the host to the back, take a look at opening in the console of the virtual machine after a new installation of ESXi or ESX fails with the error: the host certificate chain is not complete and could not connect to the MKS: the certificate of the remote host has these problems

• No network connection to the virtual computer after migration manually to the new host

  We have added six new hosts to our environment, and I was tasked to test connections of VIRTUAL LAN on each of them before we move VM production of their.  This is probably a simple problem, but I am new to VMWare and need help.  I already talked to our network guys, and he assures me that the physical switches are setup and working properly.  We work a vDS.

  I'm testing 14 VLANs on six new hosts.  All but one are constantly working.  (They all work on the hosts of origin which were in force before.)  I have a static IP configuration on my test VM and MAC is set to automatic.  I checked the MAC does not change when you migrate to other hosts and the VLAN correct is listed in the settings the VM network (it is not empty).  Him VLAN will work on three of the six hosts, but not all at the same time.  The strange thing is that guests at work are constantly changing.  For example, this morning hosts11, 12 and 14 may work, but this afternoon, that could change at hosts12, 14 and 16.  I don't understand why they would change on their own.

  My test consists of VM testing, migration manually, powering back, then he ping from my computer off.  Of course everything works when I get ping responses.  When I get no answers, the test of the virtual machine has a yellow exclamation mark on the network icon in the system tray.

  What should I do to fix this?

  How is the network configured?  You have a different NIC port/cable for each VLAN or Trunking used on the side of the switch?

  If you use circuits on the side of the switch, then your GRPE ports virtual switch a VLAN ID needs to match the vlan is underway to shared resources.  No matter if it's a standard switch or switch distributed... you still need this ID of vlan.

  I've seen the random question that you encounter if missing one or more of of the uplinks on the side of the switch the VLAN.

• Create the new host to the Cluster and Cluster

  Hi team,

  Have we not document or steps to create the new Cluster and add host to cluster?

  In addition, what are the post configuration that must be done on the ESX host? As switch, Nic, the data store Configuration?

  Should we add the storage front of cluster before adding the host?

  A process document or a step will be really useful.

  We plan to automate the process and any entry is really useful.

  Thanks and greetings

  For starters, it is User Guide PowerCLI, that comes with the installation of PowerCLI.

  And there are a lot of messages and blog discussions in this community that meet some or all of your questions.

  See for example establishment of data centres, Clusters and adding ESXi host VMware vCenter 5.x with PowerCLI

  Storage is assigned to ESXi hosts and for use in a clustered environment, you will probably want a shared storage.

  Maybe you need to split issues separate, more specific issues.

  This would make it easier to respond in this community.
