VMware 5.5 Upgrade breaks access the VMFS data store (kind of)

Now, before I get off, I will say that I am sure that the host I'm doing this on IS NOT on the HCL.

(why I'm running old hardware?-c' is a community organization that I volunteer for which relies on hardware dontated)

However, please read on.

Updated an IBM x 3500 and a x 3650 (same generation - they are basically Tower and rack mount versions of the same kit) to esxi 5.1 to 5.5.

(Exactly the same problem on both)

Local storage - IBM Serveraid (aacraid)

I was a bit confused as the controllers of disk and LUN show always also visible (just no VMFS didn't recognize any time how I rescan).

(normally the LUNS do not appear due to a driver does not)

I found that I was able to get future LUNS by practice

'Add a storage '.

"Disk/LUN.

(30-60 seconds then shows the LUNS)

It shows the drive bays, I click Next and select "mount disc and keep the signature '...

The lun then comes fine and everything works.

However rebooting it gets lost again and I have to repeat the process to get the VMFS volumes to come back.

Possible entries for the vmkernel.log

  • promotion of iSCSI LUN with the VMFS data store

    Hello

    I moved an iSCSI on the website of DR SAN and fact volume so that it was accessible to the ESX host on the site of DR based on the IP address and made the new analysis of the adapter for iSCSI Software in the VI Client on the two hosts on the DR site and he discovered the LUN.

    I don't want to go to the Configuration, storage and add storage as this reformatted the volume and it has a VMware Server already on it running happily on the main site.

    How can I add the volume as a VMFS data store available on the two hosts as he is picked up automatically?

    Thank you

    Paul

    I guess it was a VMFS volume that was used by the ESX environment on main site you, Yes? If you have moved the LUN, i.e. the ESX hosts in the main site no longer have access so that the ESX host at the DR site do not have access, you will need to define EnableResignature = 1 under Advanced settings, LVM

    You restart the analysis for storage and you should access your VMFS volume. You will need to register your virtual machines with the new host.

    When complete set EnableResignature = 0

  • VM shows this in the NFS data store after passed to the vmfs data store

    Hello

    (1) create a virtual machine using NFS datastore

    (2) had created a few snapshots

    (3) to migrate this virtual machine from the data to the local VMfs store

    (4) all the files are moved to the defined vmfs datastore

    (5) storage > > nfs_datastore > > objects > > VM > > vm is present

    (6) but when did change the setting of this VM, vm is present on the data store local vmfs

    The .vmsn file contains binary data text, so you better not change it manually. The purpose of these files is to be able to return to his instant partner. Depending on the configuration of virtual machines in time you created the snapshot, the virtual machine may require access to the old data store to access the files and folders in there when you return to this snapshot.

  • Size = size of the VMFS data store VMDK?

    Is it possible to create a single vmdk equal to the size of a vmfs data store he created in or is it a load element used by vCenter/ESXi.

    I am using vSphere 4 and VMFS data warehouses are in format VMFS 3.33.

    You can't if it is the main drive of a virtual machine and the virtual machine configuration files etc receive on the same data store as the virtual machine directly to the output that the bat will need extra space for a brief amount. For a data reader, this should be possible since there should not be any files will use the space.

  • Multiple ESX servers to access the same data store

    We connect our ESX servers to an Equallogic SAN iSCSI using VMWare iSCSI card.   I have a data store that has ISO files to store.   So far, I can connect only this data to an ESX Server store on time.  I have to disconnect an and connect manually to the other.  We currently have a facility relatively bare bones (don't have vCenter again, grouping, etc.).

    Is there anyway to connect the same data store to multiple ESX servers?  I tried to adjust the volume of Equallogic SAN for read only (since I just need to read ISO files), but I can't connect to ESX servers when I do this.

    Remember that the volume is enabled for clustering.

    From v4.x Equallogic firmware, there is an option advanced on each volume.

  • Corruption in the VMFS data store

    Hi all

    I have a data store VMFS that has a directory that ESX doesn't happen to delete, even if it tries every 2 minutes.  The contents of the directory, it looks like something related to the directory index is damaged.  The directory looks like this:

    Hello Jason,

    There is no fsck for vmfs. There is a 3rd third party tool which could for this in the future, but I wouldn't trust it now. See: http://planetvm.net/blog/?p=1592

    The best thing to do is get all your VMS out of this LUN, destroy the entirety of the LUN and recreate.

    Of course the most important is first of all to know what happened with your vmfs storage because it is very suspicious...

  • Windows 2008 Server NFS - permission denied when accessing the NFS data store

    Hello

    I'm trying to configure a Windows 2008 Server to store virtual machines on an NFS share.

    When I add the data store to my host, I have no Brown Read-only and the data store is added successfully.

    When I browse the data store, as soon as I try to delete a file or create a folder, I have an error message: "cannot delete" or "cannot complete the file was created.

    It seems to be a problem of rights NFS, but impossible to find what the problem is.

    In the/var/log/vmkernel, I see:

    Don't you have a howto use NFS with Windows 2008 to help me?  I found one for Windows 2003, but think are too different.

    Or another idea?

    See document attached with the NFS share parameters.

    Philippe

    You must configure the user name mapping in Services for UNIX/NFS and map the root user.  Detailed instructions here: http://www.sohoadvisers.com/tutorials/vmware-esxi/connect-esxi-to-windows-nfs.  I was able to implement some hosts to use my Windows NFS export, but it was a bit unreliable.  This is a configuration not supported with VMware...

    I say a file on a Web server http://webserver/important.txt and I want to copy this file in a local data store.  I am able to copy the file from the Web server to the server I'm running PowerCLI, and then to the data store, but I can't work on how to copy directly.

    Any ideas?

    As far as I know, the Copy-DatastoreItem cannot handle this. The cmdlet requires a path to the Item parameter.

    You will need to first create a local file and then copy in the data store.

  • Increase to "enlarge" the VMFS data store

    Hello

    I'm under Esxi 4.1 with vCenter servers. At the storageside, we have an array disk Equallogic iSCSI.

    In this box we have 4 MON, on one of the LUNS we run out of free space, I can increase the LUN to increase it on the side of VMware and Equallogic?

    I know by until it was not recommended, but do not know how it is now with vSphere 4. Any suggestions?

    THX

    extend is possible but then it would be better to create a new LUN, and then balance your IO request and not a large unit number logic.

  • How to create LUNS target the same data store?

    In vnx5100, we created two partitions (MON) to be shared separately with 2 VM machines for clustering

    The question here is, that I have assigned the size of the LUN to a new data storage. And when I created ROW for a virtual machine, I had to choose the target LUN, but I wasn't able to see the unit number logic I'm looking for (the one that I have allocated for the storage of data, I created).

    The question here is:

    Why the logic unit number assigned to the storage is not displayed in the list?

    Do we need to create a LUN for the data store and a separate LUN target in Vsphere with the same size of the LUN in VNX?

    What is the target LUN in VMware (vsphere client)?

    Kind regards

    To a RDM and VMFS data store, you must create/submit two LUNS for ESXi hosts. What is stored on the VMFS data store is only the RDM mapping file (this will be created at the time wherever you add the raw LUN to a virtual machine), who shows up with the size of the RDM LUN, but requires no available disk space on the data (as a few bytes) store.

  • Clone the virtual machine to the local data store

    Hi all

    I'm looking to automate a task daily (or almost) of my friends with a small script with powercli.

    I'm trying to "backup" or to clone a virtual machine, I work in a storage of one of our servers.

    The servers are managed by a 5.1 vCenter and the machine is on a shared storage.

    From time to time, I clean, stop the machine, remove all snapshots and clone the virtual machine to one of the local server as a backup storage. So I put together a small script which almost works. It works as long as the target data store is a shared storage, but not with a local storage.

    I get always an error that claims it can not access the local data store and is not a permissions problem...

    Given that I can accomplish this via the customer without problem I thought it is possible via powercli too, or I'm wrong?

    My Script up to now:

    # Variables
    $VC = "vc.domain.com" #vCenter Server
    $User = "domain\user" #User
    $Pass = 'test123' #User PW
    $VMName = 'scripttest' #VM
    $BackupSuffix = "backup" #Suffix to add the name of VM to mark this as a backup
    $VmHost = "esx2.domain.com".
    $Datastore = 'ESX2-LocalData' #Datastore
    $BackupFolder = 'Backup' #Folder the VM gets classified

    If (-not (Get-PSSnapin VMware.VimAutomation.Core - ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)) {}

    on the other

    }

    }


    # Clone VM

    $CloneSpec.Location = new-Object Vmware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpec

    $CloneSpec.Location.Datastore = (get-Datastore-name $Datastore |) Get - View). MoRef

    $CloneSpec.Location.Transform = [Vmware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateTransformation]: sparse

    $CloneFolder = $VMInfo.Parent

    $CloneName = "$VMName - $BackupSuffix".

    $TaskCloneID = $VMInfo.CloneVM_Task ($CloneFolder, $CloneName, $CloneSpec)


    # Check if the task is completed


    $Check = $false

    While ($Check - eq $false)

    {

    $Tasks = get-job | Select State, id | Where {$_.} State - eq "Running" - and $_. State - eq "pending"}

    ForEach ($Task in $Tasks)

    on the other

    {$Check = $true}

    }

    Start-Sleep 10

    }

    # Move clone to the backup folder

    Move-VM - VM '$VMName - $BackupSuffix' - Destination $BackupFolder


    # Disconnect

    Disconnect-VIServer-confirm: $false

    Can you show us the complete error message you get?

    BTW, the clone step can be replaced by the New-VM cmdlet with the setting of the virtual machine.

  • After the migration of ESXi 4.1 to 5.0 Update 1, ESXi containing the missing data store

    I intend to upgrade to an ESXi 4.1 production host, but I want to run through an upgrade of test on a separate machine. I created this using a virtual machine and the upgrade went well. However, now when I insert my vSphere client, I don't see the data store that contains data to my VM.

    Before migrating to 5, I had 2 drives, a disk of 4 GB for ESXi, and a 40 GB drive for the data of the VM installation. I could see and access times stores via the 4.1 vSphere client, but once the upgrade only the VM data store is available. Is there a reason that this is the case?

    I've updated but has not changed the partitions of data store. I have selected to migrate and keep the VMFS store, which was VMFS-3. I also tried to add the store drive 4 GB with the customer data, but an error message: "the selected disk already has a vmfs data store or the host cannot perform a conversion of partition table.
    Select another disk.

    I found this article on error message: http://KB.VMware.com/kb/2000454 , but I never actually removed from the data store. With the help of the 5.0 ESXi update I can see the VMFS store on 4 GB drive, which should have about 3.2 GB of available disk space (the rest being used by the hypervisor).

    Recommended someone else try esxconfig-volume - the list, and then use the output to a mount (http://communities.vmware.com/message/1666168#1666168), but the list command had no output at all.

    I searched through the forums and Google but you saw nothing.

    ESXi 5 has a different architecture, and I think that the problem is the size of the disk (too small) and the partition of scratch required.

    Have a look here:

  • ESXi 5.0 servers don't recognize that same NFS share to the same data store

    I have a setup of vSphere 5.0 running VMware Workstation 8.  I have two ESXi servers that are accumulating the same NFS share (with the same IP address and the same directory path), but for some reason, they don't recognize it as the same data store.  I deleted and added to the data store again and checked that I am getting the same way on both nodes.  However, vSphere don't let me use the same name when I ride sharing NFS as a data store on the second node. vSphere changes the name of "NFSdatastore" to "NFSdatastore (1)" and will not let me change, say that the name already exists.

    The NFS file server is a VM of 2.99 OpenFiler, which IP 192.168.0.100 (and is in DNS as "openfiler1").  The path is "/ mnt/vsphere/vcs/datastore.

    The NFS mount works great as a data store on the two servers ESXi, except for the fact that vSphere sees two data stores.  I have a Red Hat VM running on each of them, and when I browse the data of each ESXi Server store, I can definitely see two configs VM, as well as a few ISO images that I put on the NFS share.  However, I can't vMotion as he complains about not being able to access the configuration file and the file virtual disk (vmdk) of the other node.

    On the OpenFiler, the directory/mnt/vsphere/vcs/datastore is the property of "ofguest" in the "ofguest" group, and the permissions are "drwxrwsrwx +".  All files under the directory are also held by "ofguest" in the group "ofguest".  Vmx files have permissions "rwxr-xr-x + ', and the vmdk files have permissions ' rw +-

    I did a lot of Google search, read best practices, etc.  Any help is appreciated.

    UPDATE: he Figured out - leakage / on one of the paths of NFS mounting.  DOH!

    Maybe this can help you:

  • Help adding extensions to a VMFS data store

    Hello people,

    I am working on some automation for creation of data store and must be able to add extensions to a data store.  The initial creation of data store works well enough at this point, but I'm a little puzzled about how to add additional extensions.  In my example, I am using the navi cli to make the LUN UID off the coast of the Bay of EMC, then format it correctly for the canonical name the host for the creation of data store.

    I read a little about the extendvmfsdatastore here , but I am not able to separate the part "add the measure" of "questioning the existing data store and remove references to pass."  If someone has an extract whose orders must be performed and the text to pass to the .extendvmfsdatastore method, I'd be very happy.  I know measure in several data stores fall into disgrace with VMware, but I can't migrate 10TB data storage immediately.

    Thanks in advance!

    $tgtDSName = "MyDS"
    $freeLUN = "naa.6005076801801a34d000000000000078"
    
    $esx = Get-VMHost -Name $esxName
    $dsToBeExtended = Get-Datastore -Name $tgtDSName -VMhost $esx $dsSystem = Get-View $esx.ExtensionData.ConfigManager.DatastoreSystem
    $available = $dsSystem.QueryAvailableDisksForVmfs($dsToBeExtended.ExtensionData.MoRef)
    $lun = $available | where {$_.CanonicalName -eq $freeLUN}
    if($lun){
        $options = $dsSystem.QueryVmfsDatastoreExtendOptions($dsToBeExtended.ExtensionData.MoRef,$lun.DevicePath,$true)
        $dsSystem.extendVmfsDatastore($dsToBeExtended.ExtensionData.MoRef, $options[0].Spec)
    }
    

    If the LUN that you pass the $freeLUN variable is not free, the script will not call the extendVmfsDatastore method
