VMWare vCenter Server

Hi all

I have a VC server that connects via a SQL Server for the database unfortunately when I reboot the SQL Server, the server of VMWare VirtualCentre service stop and fails to restart even if I put the service to restart if it stops.  Is there a way to successful restart this service without having to restart the server VC?

Any help to solve this problem would be great.

Thank you

John

    Whenever I have begin to collect data, vcenter service stops or restarts, if I stop data collection and to disable the agent, vcenter service again and works well.

    Thanks in advance

    It is a known issue, relating to the collection of historical data being enabled (nonzero) in the properties of the VMWare Agent on the Agent status screen.

    Change to 0 to disable/re-enable the agent and it should fix the problem.

  • Do need me a separate license for VMware vCenter Server Heartbeat for a remote SQL Server database?

    Do need me a separate license for VMware vCenter Server Heartbeat for a remote SQL Server database?

    Only a single vCenter Server Heartbeat license is necessary to protect the components of the vCenter Server installed remotely, including SQL Server. A single license is also used for several UNIQUE for vCenter Server services protected authentication servers. A license is required per instance of vCenter Server.

  • How does VMware vCenter Server Heartbeat communicate?

    How does VMware vCenter Server Heartbeat communicate?

    VMware vCenter Server Heartbeat supports configurations of single NIC or multi.

    Public IP address: this IP address is used by a client to connect to an Active Server, and move between the secondary and primary servers in the case of a failover or a passage.

    IP address of the channel: this is for communication between active and passive servers. This is used for the transfer of control and an asset to the passive server data and monitoring the State of an Active Server.

    In a LARGE network, static routes are used on switches to maintain ongoing communication.

    Management IP address: this address is used to access servers in a passive role. In a multi NETWORK card configuration, a NIC will have IP addresses public and management, and an another aura NIC IP address of channel. In a single NETWORK adapter configuration, all IP addresses are on the same network adapter.

  • I did a stupid thing: I suspended "vmware vCenter Server Appliance" and now I can't connect to it more

    Hello

    First some info on our system. We have a group of three hypervisors and a few terabytes of storage on two devices of Synology. VCenter Server allows us to control everything. This vCenter is accessible via a dedicated ip address. Then I opened my 5.5 vSphere client on my workstation, check the name and credentials of the vCenter and hup I can admin everything.

    Now, what I did with my sleepy head? I suspended the so-called "unit of vmware vcenter server. And my vsphere client lost my connection with the server vCenter Server immediately.

    I can't ping this address ip-plus.

    I'm afraid that ssh is disabled.

    Installed on virtual machines seemed well-oiled, I can access it by using RDP. So no worries for employees using them.

    So I would like to be able to restart this device "vmware vcenter server" but I don't know how to do it.

    All useful ideas would be nice.

    And Yes, it's a really stupid mistake.

    Thank you

    Paul

    Point your client vSphere host your vCenter ON VM's.  You can then start the VM vCenter.

  • VMware vCenter Server Appliance 5.1 is not Autostart cluster

    My configuration:

    Shared infrastructure-plate-forme PowerEdge VRTX with 3 servers running

    -3 x VMware ESXi 5.1.0 (799733)

    -1 x VMware vCenter Server Appliance 5.1

    Unfortunately Autostart VM is not supported in a Cluster, and so the settings are ignored. VM in clusters must be turned on manually (or using a script,...).

  • Activate the VCA Mode of VMware vCenter Server Appliance

    Hello

    I'm pretty new on vSphere.  I have two hosts running esxi 5.1 what one of these hosts running the "VMware vCenter Server Appliance' with vSphere version 5.5.  I currently have a single cluster containing all the VMS as well hosts and the SAN.

    I try to activate the EVC mode, but when I try it tells me that the host is not allowed because there are powered on virtual machines.  I can turn off all the virtual machines except the vCenter device and I still get the problem on the host that has the device on it.  If I turn off the unit, I can't use vSphere to activate CVS.

    How can I activate CVS when vSphere does not work?

    Thank you

    Jeff

    Hi Welcome to the communities,

    This one is a bit complicated

    You have:

    1. turn off all VMs on Host1 (while vCenter device is on Host2)

    2 bring Host1 on Cluster, select CVS clustered.

    3. put all the virtual machines on Host2 (also vCenter device)

    4. connect on Host2 directly to vSphere Client Windows

    5. remove the vCenter inventory unit

    6. connect on Host1 directly to vSphere Client Windows

    7. the data store when the appliance and add it to the inventory of research. Power on

    8. connect the device with Web client or vSphere vCenter

    9. move the second host in the cluster

    And you're done

  • Can of POS used with Vmware vCenter Server 5 Standard license

    Hello team,

    Accroding to http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 2016565

    WTP is supplied with vSphere Essentials more and more.

    I searched but did not meet solid information where he explains when licensed some don't need us to buy additional licenses for new features / applications, etc.
    I'm new to Vmware licenses hierarchy. We have Vmware vCenter Server Standard 5 license.
    Please point me to a URL that contains the hierarchy of Vmware licenses .

    Thank you much in advance.
    Niraj

    You can use vCenter Server Standard 5 licenses for POS. Everything we have features such as (profile of HA, DRS, FT, VDP, host, DVS etc.) you don't need to worry about the virtual server license Center. You must use the correct license vsphere host. But don't forget to think about some virtual server edition Center can handle some vsphere hosts.

    vCenter server 5 Essentials can manage only vSphere Essentials Plus or vSphere Essentials.

    vCenter Server Standard 5 licensecan eat only vSphere vSphere Enterprise and vSphere companies plus standards.

    You can activate the functionality of POS with vSphere Essentials Plus then you will need to use vCenter server 5 Essentials.If you use vCenter server standard for vSphere Essentials Plus so it give error or warning for violation of editing.

  • VMware vCenter Server able work on linux?

    Hi all

    I can't make pile or face of ESX documentation, there is no direct answers.

    It is possible to run VMware vCenter Server on the linux host? everywhere I see just winNT and XP support... in our environment is only the linux hosts and one or two win7 for running vSphere client...

    Is there a solution without throwing me money buy windows XP?

    Kind regards

    vCenter Server is only available as a Windows application, you need at least Windows XP Pro 64-bit to run the latest version of vCenter Server (4.1). See http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vsphere4/r40/vsp_compatibility_matrix.pdf (compatibility of OS for vSphere Client, vCenter Server...)
