VMware vCenter Console view showing bad VM

I'm having a problem with the console view, no matter who else seen elsewhere?

When I'm connected to vSphere through vCenter and view open the console of a virtual computer, the VM wrong opens. It's consistantly past with each VM on the same host.

When I connect directly to the host, I have no problem opening the virtual machine in the console.

Would - this something to do with the reference VM being screwed up ID?

FYI I applied all critical updates to host the Sam, which may very probably be the cause. I am now on ESXi 5.5.0, 1623387

Any help would be apprecated!

For anyone having the same problem, I contacted support VMWare and got a resolution. The question was simple but easy to forget.

When we corrected the host, the version of vCenter we had was more compatible and cannot properly manage the host. The resolution has been updated the vCenter server. He had then disconnect and reconnect the host concerned in order to obtain the vCenter working with the host.

Thank you

  • PCOIP connection and VCenter Console

    Is it possible to have a VCenter console connection to a desktop view that already has a PCOIP connection to it.  When I try this I get nothing but a black screen on the console connection and I don't know if this is normal or not.  Can I have a RDP connection on the desktop and a Console VCenter connection, the problem only exists when the connection is PCOIP via the customer to view.

    Thanks in advance

    In fact its possible to do, but you must set a registry setting on the client:

    HKLM\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc. \VMware SVGA DevTap\NoBlankOnAttach: DWORD: 1

    It is not recommended to do this for several reasons:

    Anyone with access to the console can see what does the user. (Confidentiality)

    Performance will be worse because the display must be in two places instead of one. (Performance)

    Why not just use the Remote Assistance feature in Windows instead?

    Our web customer support is for vSphere 5.5 only. Please make sure it's the version of vCenter that you run.

    "If you are on 5.5 check if there are two plugin files in C:/ProgramData/VMware/vSphere Web Client/vc-packages/vsphere-client-serenity /" If there is, we have seen that removing the oldest file and restarting the blank Server fixed this issue.

  • The list of custom views - showing canceled (vROps 6.0.1) alerts

    Hi all

    I created a custom view of a list to report on the host application. The view shows all the symptoms that are alert, even if they have been rectified and metric of the symptom reports the time to the ' cancellation on»

    As most of the symptoms have been resolved, the largest part of the list is the noise, so is it a way I can filter the list to show only the symptoms that have not been cancelled?

    vrops6dmz.JPG

    As a result, when look at respect for the host directly, one of the properties doesn't seem to refresh (I checked on several hosts). The rule of "Non-compliant firewall setting to limit access to the SNMP Server" shows that:

    vrops6dmz2.JPG

    Even if SNMP is disabled and the host is configured for this property:

    vrops6dmz3.JPG

    Any help would be appreciated!

    I used this blog as a reference article on creating the view: http://blogs.vmware.com/management/2015/03/compliance-in-vrealize-operations-6.html?utm_source=feedly & utm_medium = rss & utm_campaign = compliance-in-vrealize-operations-6

  • VMware vCenter living is no longer working with Acronis Backup Advanced, Help!

    Hello everyone, I hope this ad in the right area of im, I'm looking for some advice on what could be causing my question about integration using the byproducts, I am struggling to find something on the net that relates exactly to my problem so have resorted to forums to see if anyone has tips or ideas , like im fresh out of them now!

    • VMware Client & Server Version 5.5.0 - (VMware vCentre Server Build 1476327)
    • Acronis advanced backup (Version 11.5 - update 5)

    Since November the synchronization / VMware vCenter integration between the 2 products above seems to have stopped working correctly, which means that any change in the location of the VM machines in the VMware customer environment is not reflected in Acronis more.

    For example, when you move a virtual machine to a folder on a particular data center to another folder in the same Datacenter, this change should be so reflected in the Acronis, what is happening is no longer.

    In addition, when a virtual machine brand new is created in vSphere and is placed in the appropriate Center of data/file structure, this should (and working correctly until November) fill with Acronis 'vcentre' host Group that has the folder structure equivalent to pick up the plans for appropriate backup etc, but this happens is no longer, instead , the only way that you can see the new VM is under "all Virtual Machines.

    In addition, when removal of vSphere VM, also not being properly reflects Acronis more, when go in "All Virtual machines" these deleted machines are still show while intoxicated. But these machines no longer exist in vSphere, this shouldn't show Acronis more. Without doubt, this is connected to vCenter integration issues.

    Here are the steps I took to try to solve this problem

    • Disable/re-enabling integration with the server vCentre.
    • Restarting the Server Service on the management of Acronis Acronis license server
    • Reset all motors of unloading and the virtual machine.
    • Acronis and vCentre servers restarting.
    • A reconstruction complete the Acronis server and all subsequent config, etc. backup plans.

    After the last point (reconstruction of Acronis) integration has worked for a few days, then it stopped working again!

    If anyone has any ideas or possible causes, could you please let me know.

    Here are a few details of what was the root cause of the problem:

    Each VM in vSphere contains a list of parameters such as:

    InstanceUUID

    locationID

    guestFullName

    The problem arises because some of the virtual computers contains a copy of the values of these parameters (name, value). Thus, in order to update the database of AMS, we execute the SQL query with these settings, but when 2 or more of the virtual computers contains the same parameters, the SQL query fails > This is why the changes were not reflected and it was not possible to update the vCenter folder structure.

    The developer removed then duplicate values enable and disable the vCenter integration, by doing this it was able to resolve the problem.

  • Updated VMware vCenter Operations Manager tools

    Hello everyone, I just use Citrix Xenserver to VMware vCenter with Operations Manager 5.8.4.  I've looked everywhere and cannot find an answer to this.  Is it possible to update VMware tools in the vCOPS TIME?  I just started my new environment with v8 of Veeam backup and he lets know me that VMware tools are outdated.  The only reason why I ask because, coming from Citrix Xenserver v6.2, whenever a device from the virtual computer is provided by Citrix, you're stuck with the tools provided in this unit until they update the device.

    If it's good to update the VMware tools, it's as simple as opening the console to each virtual machine in the vApp and he tell the ' Install/Upgrade Vmware Tools?  Or is there a more complicated step?

    Thank you

    Brett

    As far as I KNOW, the VMware tools upgrade is not recommended on vCops.

    This breaks the device and you can ignore the message of the VMware tools obsolete.

  • VMware vCenter Orchestrator Configuration problem

    Hi guys,.

    My company has just installed VMware vCenter Orchestrator and we try to create a new host to vCenter server with version 5.0.1.

    Can someone point me to documentation that shows me how to configure the web page in the print screen attached?  Or can someone please tell me what is needed in the empty fields, etc.?  When we try to enter info, we get alerts of service of red light of the vCenter Server tab and the tab startup options.  Both give us a red circle indicating a problem.

    Thank you!

    A free IP address? Oh... No, this plugin configuration is not actually CREATE a vCenter for you, it allows you to configure the vCO to speak to an EXISTING vCenter server you must already have a server vCenter configuration somewhere and you must use the FULL domain name or address IP of this server in this configuration.

    Moved to the 'Site Recovery Manager' forum and edited the object line to fix the formatting

    While I can't give you a solution, I can share that I had a similar problem with an SRM installation.  Like yours, mine was a working facility which, for some strange reason, began to exhibit the same symptoms.  Start the service, in a second or two, stopped service.

    I opened a ticket with VMware on the issue and in more than three months of back and fourth Exchange with various Tech support I have ever received a satisfactory answer on what caused it.  The 'solution' they gave me was to remove the database SQL RS and re - install SRM.  This 'solution' has worked, but if this question comes up, I'll probably have to back unpleasant, emphasizing the fact that they solve the problem.

    I wish I could be more help, but that's it.  I feel your pain.

  • VMware vcenter server woes

    Hey guys,.

    I just installed vcenter server to centralize control of my various installations of vmware server. I have essentially 4 machines I want to follow - 3 all running the same debian installation and last version of vmware server (free). the 4th is a windows 2003 machine that runs the latest vmware server too.

    I installed vmware infrastructure without problem, no error. iStart it upward, add a data center. add my first host - a linux host. works very well. I add a second host - another host.as of linux, I am setting up I get the summary of correct host and it lists even the virtual machines that are on the machine. It ends, says being synchronized to the top and then I get the dreaded "host type is not supported, or added to a cluster, but does not support the features of clusters.

    strange. am I adding as a cluster? I don't think so... I add windows machine and he adds without any problem. a linux server that I managed to add shows no information to the title of memory/CPU usage of the virtual machines, it is all 0. therefore graphics of performance - no graphics.

    what the hell is happening?

    Interesting - to - http://www.vmware.com/products/server/faqs.html

    Can I manage VMware Server 2 output using a new or existing VMware vCenter Server version?

    No, VMware Server 2 can be managed by VMware vCenter Server 2.5.  There is no option of centralized management (stream) for VMware

  • ITunes 12.4: TV missing grid view shows

    I am running iTunes on Mac OS X 10.11.5 12.4.0.119

    If I find my music or movies in the iTunes menu, I see them as covers / movie posters, in iTunes drop-down display-> show in the menu, I have an option "grid."

    If I consider my TV shows in the iTunes menu, I see a list of shows rather than the representation of photo that I'm used to. On the view menu-> iTunes there is no menu "display as" to select the grid.

    I have an any other MacBook pro with exactly the same iTunes and the version of Mac OS X as described above, and the mac can see the TV shows very well and has a "view-> show as" menu.

    I found the posts making reference to this behavior for some people on the menu "music", but not the TV.

    Why can a mac show TV in grid mode, but the other is not? and how do I get this TV shows return to the display of the grid on the mac that displays them as a list.

    Thank you.

    corrected it. The default "Sort" is by episodes, go to 'view-> see the sidebar' once that appears in the sidebar, change the display of episodes of TV shows, then re - hide the sidebar.

    you will see "view-> show in the format" is back, and he now has an option to 'grid' again.
