VMware ESXi 5.5 crashing
I have a server with ESXI 5.5 and two virtual machines running pfSense, the problem is that almost every morning the server crashes, I can still access the virtual machines or the own server by the vSphere Client. What could be? Hardware problem? Or otherwise virtual machines may cause the crash of the host? Thank you
31 days of availability!
The problem was really overheated.
Solution: 8cm FAN cooler + opening for air flow in the system cover.
Thanks to all who helped!

VMWare Esxi 5.5 Core dump to disk
Good afternoon!
I am facing a problem in VMware esxi free 5.5.
The server is crashing and showed a purple screen with the message "core dump to disk. Site 1 of 1... ».
I searched on the problem but have not found a solution.
We are the migration from VMware to XenServer.
In my environment, I have a San with Equallogic PS4100.
Can someone tell me what could happen?
Image attached.
Thank you.
It seems that you are affected by this problem:
http://KB.VMware.com/kb/2059053
https://communities.VMware.com/message/2301745
Unfortunately there is no patch for ESXi 5.5 still. The solution is to replace the vNIC e1000 in virtual machines with one another as the vmxnet3 vNIC.

Upgrade VMware ESXi 6.0 Update 2 VMware ESXi 6.0
Hello I am running my PowerEdge T110 II with VMware ESXi 6.0 - Dell customized image. I see that from April 15, 2016 Dell just introduced VMware ESXi 6.0 Update 2 and I'd like to update my system.
On the download page , I see there is an option to download and the ISO file. I wonder if this installation will completely be wipeout my existing VMware ESXi 6.0 - Dell custom and all the settings and I have to start all over again or update 2 ISO just 'modernize' my network?

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:
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:
~ # vmkload_mod s megaraid_sas | grep Version
Version: Version 06.803.73.00, build: 1331820, Interface: 9.2 inspired: August 22, 2014Thank you.
Hello
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
This is the same version that he shows for your installation on the R710 so that seems correct.

Is the PowerEdge R610 Compatible DELL VMware ESXi 5.1 update 1 recovery Image?
Hi all
Does anyone know if the R610 is compatible with the recovery Image VMware ESXi 5.1 update 1? It is not on the compatibility list, but the r.620 is there. We use two servers in our VMWare environment and I want to upgrade to 5.1 U1.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Lee,.
The long wait has its result.
Seems that it's a typo. Engineering has responded that it is supported.
Let me know if you encounter other problems.

Driver RAID for Vmware ESXi 5.1 on Dell R420.
My project is to install Vmware ESXi 5.1 on a Dell R420 with Raid1 configuration. The question I have after configuring raid1 in raid utility is created using the, I launch the installation of Vmware ESXi 5.1. What is ESXi 5.1 sees not the raid1 partition but rather see two disks as are they worn can't in raid1 configurations.
I need to have this in raid1 config, can any who share an idea about my problem please or point me in the right direction.
I did some research but nothing seems to help resolve this issue.
Thank you
Sheriff.
Sorry for my previous response:
DELL-Daniel My - when I boot in the BIOS of the controller, I see the raid in a raid1 configuration.
Mgr dev you are right, I did research more when you all answered. I see the PERC S110 pilot was a software raid controller and thus the vmware esxi wouldn't work in a raid configuration 1 (software raid).
Thank you guys for you answer and who helped me

I'm trying to get the BB10 Simulator to work on a VMWare ESXi server. Here's what I've done so far:
- Installed the Simulator on yhe development machine, started VMWare workstation, open the vmx file and downloaded the VM on the ESXi server.
- 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
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.

Problem with the start of VMware ESXi 5.0
I just installed VMware ESXi 5.0 on a new Cisco UCS B200 series blade with two 300 GB hard drives configured in a RAID 1 mirror. I went through and completed the installation of VMware ESXi 5.0 on this server. When the installation is complete and the server restarted, he did not initiate the ESXi where I can change the IP address and VLAN. Instead, I get this text string after the initial boot sequence that is shown in the attachment. I have a guest who said Shell > do not know why I can not start correctly in ESXi 5.0. Thank you! Paul
Hi Paul,.
Looks like you boot to the EFI shell. What is the startup policy that you have configured on this server service profile? It should look like the one below. If there is a problem with the boot order, you should be able to type "EXIT", then enter on the EFI shell to exit the prompt. If your startup is similar to the one below and you still experience this issue, try to downgrade and re - ack the blade.
Let me know if it helps.

I installed VMware ESXi on my Cisco's UCS server but after that I don't get from CIMC.
I installed VMware ESXi on my Cisco's UCS server but after that I don't get from CIMC. also, I am unable to ping the address IP of CIMC. Any help?
I think that MMIC does nothing with your ESXi installation... it is OoB management for servers of the UCS.
Check your config MMIC inside the BIOS again.

Hi all
I just updated one of my guests with the latest cisco image provided on the vmware website (Vmware-ESXi-5.5.0-2068190-custom-Cisco-5.5.2.3). After the application as an upgrade of the host and then doing a scan against the host in the Update Manager, it shows that ESXi complete update 2 is missing?
I know this is maybe more a problem of vmware, but wanted to see if someone had run into this?
This thank you for the quick response.

OpenManage for VMWare ESXi has no possibility of tasks of virtual disk
OMSA v 7.1 and 7.2 for Windows (and earlier versions) allow the user to perform many tasks on virtual disks, including reconfiguring - expand a RAID array with a new drive.
This is not true for managing open for VMWare ESXi - although you can monitor the status of the RAID and disks with the browser of the OMSA interface type, you cannot perform tasks - can not even make a high beam Flash.
It is a huge problem, because the PERC controllers (H700 and H800, for example) don't allow you to develop virtual using hard drives not Dell disks when you try this during startup in the bios. (These controllers only allows you to create new virtual disks using drives not Dell).
This test was conducted using the latest firmware (12.10.4 - 0001 A10) and drivers for the H700 and H800 and multi-server r610 ESXi 5.1.
Other people with VMWare have been affected by the present? The only solution is to have two player networks connected to the computer, and create a simple Windows with OMSA, boot in Windows Server to expand the table using OMSA for Windows.
I would be interested in the comments of others, including those of Dell. We spent hours on the phone with Dell; This seems to be the only solution. (Yes, Dell released a firmware version last year that has ceased blocking non Dell readers, but it only works for the creation of a new virtual disk, do not expanding one existing).
Yes. It came through a discussion in the Dell | Servers | Discussion of the RAID community.
en.Community.Dell.com/.../20263442.aspx
There is a CD bootable linux called OMSA Live that you download from PowerEdge (linux OS) systems management.
This OMSA PERC H700 and H800 control and allows you to do everything. When you reconfigure the RAID and the PERC card starts the reconstruction, although it seems risky, you can restart under VMware and the reconstruction of the RAID continues on. And you can analyze with OMSA for VMware.
