Hello

License activate I can't seem to of my VMware ESXi 5.5

After call to the support, following KB:

http://KB.VMware.com/kb/2014574

By clicking on "Assign a license to the ESXi host" I connect on the profile of my my VMware...

But cannot activate

Unless you already have a license key, register to Download VMware vSphere Hypervisor for free to get a free key. Then follow the steps mentioned in the article knowledge base you will have to enter the license key on the ESXi host.

  • BB10 Simulator on Vmware ESXi

    I'm trying to get the BB10 Simulator to work on a VMWare ESXi server. Here's what I've done so far:

    1. Installed the Simulator on yhe development machine, started VMWare workstation, open the vmx file and downloaded the VM on the ESXi server.
    2. Disabled 3D acceleration on the machine virtual (on ESX) and selected 'Full touch safe mode' after starting the virtual machine.

    At this point, the virtual computer screen displays the IP 'telnet ftp ssh qconn', the axis of the device and the build number.

    The next step is to connect the Momentics IDE to this virtual machine.

    The Simulator is in need of a vmx file configuration dialog box (likely to run vmware specific commands). In the configuration of ESXi, there is no vmx file.

    If I try to connect to the virtual machine by IP address, I need a device password, I did not.

    Someone at - it suggestions on what do I do now?

    In response to my own question because I found the answer:

    Now that I have the IP address, I just follow the steps described in

    http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/native-development/BB10-native-Cascades-SDK-not-connecting-to...

    Because I had never set up a password for the Simulator, I left the empty password field.

    Copy-paste the details:

    Of your IDE

    -Right click on your project in the Project Explorer

    -Go to Blackberry tools and click on configure target...

    -Click Add new target it... button and enter the IP address of your Simulator in the host name or IP address field, enter your password if you have one then click on finish

    To run your application on the Simulator:

    -In the Project Explorer view, double click on file bar - descriptor.xml, then click on chip Debug Set button to set the author of the application information.

    -Set the configuration of the correct version for the Simulator first by right-clicking on your project and selecting Configurations of Build > Set Active > 4 Simulator-Debug.

    -In the Project Explorer view, right-click the project and select build project.

    -Right click on the project again, and then select run as > BlackBerry Application C/C++.

    Currently I see many MAC beat in the log of the switch.  From my understanding, I expect the MAC address out all ports, because that's what'd ESXi when you use 'route based on the hash of the IP.  I'm worried about the impact this might have on the CPU / switch.

  • Patching VMware ESXi

    So, I recently discovered that my VMware ESXi running ESXi 5.5.0 version 1331820 build number (ESXi 5.5.0 GA). Now, I know that there are a few fixes that have been released, ESXi550-201410001 is the most recent, because as far as I know. It would be convenient to patch, also if this is the case, can I just go what version I am now, download the recent patch and install directly, or is there a few required required fixes before. Active and important virtual machines running on hosts that I would be "patching" it may be closed, but it would be really bad if the patch to cause problems for causing problems for VMS host.

    I'm new to this, as I have never "patched" before ESXi. I guess I can use this (KB VMware: installation of patches on an ESXi host from the command-line 5.x ) as the documentation on how to install those.

    Thanks in advance!

    Yes, the ESXi patches are cumulative.

    Please read this blog post from VMware:are cumulative patches ESXi | VMware vSphere Blog - VMware Blogs

  • Target iscsi ESXI 5.0, active path connected, mounted, are not not in the data store data store

    HI -.

    I am looking for help to point me in the right direction.  This problem occurred after a reboot of the system.

    I'm in vmware esxi essentials 5.0.0 821926

    I use the starwind software as my iSCSI target

    I use ISCSI to connect to my server from storage to the esxi hosts.

    I have 2 warehouses of data showing inactive under clusters of data storage and the data store.  I have a third-party data store on the same server that is loading properly.

    I currently have the same behavior on three esxi hosts:

    under configuration - storage adapters is the ISCSI path is active. Data warehouses appear under devices and mounted.  In data warehouses, they are inactive. On the same storage server

    on the starwind Server - I have

    built a new target

    removed and added the databases to the new target

    Changed the IP address of the target.

    On Esxi hosts, I removed the ISCSI server, discover places BOF dynamic and static and added under the same or IPs news discovery

    I can restart esxi hosts & storage servers and get to that same point.

    Whenever I find myself in the same place - course assets, devices mounted, inactive in data warehouses

    I don't know what else to share, let me know what you need to know to help out me.

    Thank you

    Dylan

    OK, incase someone crosses my ramblings, it may help.  My original question was warehouses of data that would not rise.  They were visible as devices in the area of storage under devices and as devices in the scsi adapter.

    When I would try to force mount them, add storage, keep the signature, mount they wouldn't mount.  I did some research and my question was after a failed mount attempt strength as got data attached as snapshots warehouses.  I then mounted force them and he tells will data warehouses and I got them back.

    I followed this KB to identify and resolve the problem

    manipulation of vSphere detected as snapshot LUN LUN (1011387)

    When it was over, I tried to add vms back and found a new show.  Power of vms would expire.  the vmkernel.log showed;

    2014 05-27 T 07: 20:40.010Z [verbose 'Vmsvc' 564D7B90] Vmsvc: filtering Vms: ignored not ready to request power state vm vim. VirtualMachine:75

    I had latency huge read write showing upwards, 3K and more

    After several searches, I had in the ESXShell and found that there is no conflict of booking.

    On a whim, I took inventory all virtual machines that are now inaccessible.  I then added a DOS virtual machine. Alto! the latency down to version 1.2 a.7 ms for all data warehouses.

    ultimately the instructions said you may need to add virtual machines in the inventory, but does not remove all virtual machines first.  I was grabbing vms that were not in stock, so I didn't remove the old virtual machines in the inventory.

  • Network configuration / routing / two network interface cards / NAT - leased / dedicated Dell R210 running VMware ESXi 5.1.0 build-799733

    Network configuration / routing / two network interface cards / NAT - leased / dedicated Dell R210 running VMware ESXi 5.1.0 build-799733

    Hello

    I'm trying to understand how to configure a dedicated server of Dell R210 rented running VMware ESXi 5.1.0 build-799733

    This dedicated server is rented www.online.net and sits somewhere in France. One of its network adapters have an IP public 62.210.177.20x. The other NIC is here, but I do not understand how it is configured. According to the www.online.net portal, the other NETWORK card has or should have an IP 10.90.116.20x. And I am obviously set up is to have some virtual machines running and be able to access the Internet. I have access to the console of the server Dell through iDRAC and since I could see, one of the network adapters in the IP is 62.210.177.20x defined, and the other has been shown out of service. I managed to make it appear the other interface but I cannot find anywhere how to assign the IP address 10.90.116.20x to this 2nd network adapter. But then again I don't even know if I should or if I need to assing a IP address to this 2nd network adapter. What is the cable connected even for this 2nd NIC? I do not know. Should it be - I'm not either. I don't know French and manuals/instructions on www.online.net are in French. I can try an online translator, but I don't think that what I'm looking for is explained. How do I get this set up? I have to do something about the ESXi on the server console? This interface 2nd should be in place, or it must be down as if it was originally? Yesterday after watching someone videos on YouTube, I added the second virtual switch and moved the virtual hosts of this switch 2 and he entrusted the 2nd NIC. But that 2nd NIC had a red X next to it probably indicating that it was disconnected the 2nd form virtual switch. Today and now I have managed to access the ESXi console server through iDRAC, I bring the 2nd NIC, and now both network adapters are assigned to the virtual switch 1st . But I think that a NIC should be attributed to a single switch and the other card NETWORK on the 2nd switch. I'm just a desktop guy with enough knowledge to be dangerous J if you / someone put in steps how and where to set them up it... PLEASE

    Thanks in advance

    Network configuration

    • VMware vSphere Hypervisor is an "operating system" for pure virtualization and support NAT or routing. Therefore, only a real bridge configuration can be used.
    • To use a subnet additional IP must be configured as a router VM.

    If I understand the above, I need to show some VM and set up as a router? If the virtual machine that will act as a router must have two network interfaces, where it is connected to a switch and the other to the other switch network card. Am I do? The YouTube video that suggested, but I thought that maybe / somehow ESXi can route packets between the two network cards, but from what I read, ESXi can route packets. Do I need to order an additional / extra / 2nd IPv4 address so that it can be assigned to the interface of the router?

  • Change the HARD disk in VMWare ESXi 3 Server

    Hi all

    I'm new in the Comunnity. I have the following problem:

    I have a Dell PowerEdge 2950 III with six 7.2 K rpm HDs in RAID 5 running VMWare ESX 3i in an internal USB unit. In this server, I have a virtual machine running a mail server. I have problems of performance of disks in servers and we will change the discs on 15 K RPM drive and change the RAID 10 RAID level. I activated the SSH in VMWare ESXi and my question is: is it possible to copy the virtual machine using Winscp or other method forders, rebuilt my RAID, and then copy these files to VMWare again?

    I'would want to know your suggestions on this matter.

    Thank you very much and best regards,

    Amedina

    You may need to use "add to inventory" since the UUID will be different on the store of data on disks. If we then open the data store with and navigate to the virtual machine. Right click and Add. You answer that you move them.

  • R710/R720 - Dell customized Image of VMware ESXi 5.5 Update 2 - megaraid_sas version specific?

    That I improve a R710 and two v5.5 (Dell image) to v5.5 U2 ESXi ESXi R720 using the image of Dell here:

    www.dell.com/.../DriversDetails

    The documentation "Upgrade Guide to ESXi 5.5 using Dell customized Image" here:

    www.Dell.com/.../manuals

    indicates that a specific version of the megaraid_sas driver must be installed.

    Is the version megaraid_sas that installs with the image of Dell U2 v5.5 not the right version?

    I just ran the upgrade on a R710 and it's the megaraid_sas version installed:

    It lists the R720 and R710 systems supported and both link to the same page, so the customized version is the same for both servers. Is the version listed in the reference guide for A02

    megaraid_sas - 06.803.73.00

    Page 5 ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_software/esuprt_virt_solutions/vmware-esxi-5_Reference%20Guide6_en-us.pdf

    This is the same version that he shows for your installation on the R710 so that seems correct.
