VMware vSphere/ESXi 5.5 - UCS B230M2 and B200M supported?

Any idea when the UCS B200M1/2/3 and B230M2 blades will be certified for vSphere 5.5?

I see that the C-Series servers are already on the list, but none of the B series blades.

Hello Kris,

According to the current schedule UCS HCL for ESXi 5.5 support will be updated before the end of October.

  • Latest version VMWare VSphere ESXi announcement

    Hello, please forgive my lack of knowledge that I'm not an expert VMWare. I am looking for information on the announced Server latest OS for VMWare VSphere ESXi. I realize that the last version is VMWare VSphere ESXi version 5, but there was no announcement (not necessarily published) of the future releases past version 5. If so, I would be grateful for any information.

    Thank you

    Kind regards

    Gil Lee

    Not yet. vSphere 5.1 is the latest version, but he had published patches (a and b).

    VMware will announce information when they decide it's time for that so there nothing known yet outside on version 6 or whatever they'll call it.

  • VMware vSphere - ESXi - cannot leave the console VM access?

    I'm under ESXi 4.1 on a server of Dell T110

    I connect to ESXi with vSphere

    vSphere is running within a VM in Windows 7

    The Windows 7 VM is running in VMware Fusion on my Mac OS X system

    When I'm in vSphere and I selected a virtual machine and I click on the tab console on some systems the VM console release me when I press control + keys command as it should.

    pfSense (FreeBSD), Ubuntu Server and Windows Server 2008 (before installing VMware tools) behave like that. I can't get out of their screen of the console. I must stop these VM out of their access to the VM consoles.

    Windows 7, Windows Server 2003, Ubuntu Desktop, etc, that all behave as I expect. When I press control + command keys I am released from the VM console and I am able to navigate in vSphere.

    After I install VMware Tools on Windows Server 2008 I don't have to press anything to be released from the VM console can I just move my mouse outside the console and interact with vSphere, which is what I expected.

    Shouldn't be able to leave the console VM using Ctrl + Cmde in any virtual computer if VMware Tools is installed?

    Anyone know what could be causing this device or a way around it?

    Thanks in advance.

    If the tools are installed as you have seen, you can safely move out of the console.  However, without tools, have you tried to release the cursor?

  • VMWare vSphere 4 hypervisor ESXi 4.1 - can buy upgrade to 4.1 Patch 11 again?

    Hi guys

    I have a x 3650 M2 aging IBM server running the free version of vSphere 4 Hypervisor ESXi 4.1.0 260247.

    I'm looking to install esxi version 4.1 Patch11.

    I have a few questions:
    1. I am able to patch to version 4.1 Patch11 without having to re - build the host and re - import the virtual machine?

    2. I am able to buy the paid version of the Patch11 4.1 so I can get the support of VMware? If so where can I buy it.

    3. Alternatively if I can't buy Patch11 4.1 can I buy VMware vSphere Essentials Kit 5.5 version and update without having to re - build the host and re - import the virtual machine on top of the 4.1? My server is about 4 years, I am worried if she composed with 5.5?

    Kind regards

    1. I am able to patch to version 4.1 Patch11 without having to re - build the host and re - import the virtual machine?

    Yes, but a backup is always recommended.

    2. I am able to buy the paid version of the Patch11 4.1 so I can get the support of VMware? If so where can I buy it.

    You can download it for free here: https://www.vmware.com/patchmgr/findPatch.portal

  • VMWare vSphere v5.5 ESXi install errors

    Hello

    I'm trying to install VMWare vSphere, ESXi v5.5 on a machine that I've used as a Windows 2008 Server. Pretty well spec'd (core i5, 8 GB, 3.5 TB of space etc.), but it's just a generic machine with a motherboard micro ATX ASUS and so on. I use an external USB DVD drive.

    It support (or seems to load) GRUNB fails with an error of '22 '. When I changed the BIOS to AHCI settings error replaced by "Error 21".

    I tried to eliminate any problems:

    • Tested the drive and the USB on a core i3 laptop [AOK]
    • Checked hardware virtualization is enabled in the BIOS OF THE system [YES]
    • I tried vSphere 5.1 [SAME MISTAKES]

    Does anyone have ideas, what could cause this problem?

  • VMware vSphere: install, configure, manage [V5.1] correct review and practice test

    Dear all,

    Here, I'm a bit confused so I need help to clarify which exam I have to take and what is the matter with this review. I took the course VMware vSphere: install, configure, manage [V5.1] and when I tried to register for the exam, he gave me the review "VCPD510: VMware Certified Professional-Desktop ' and when I tried to find some documents to study, I found two different materials, which relates to the VCP5-DT, which is all about VMware View: install, configure, manage [V5.x] and the other which is VCP - 510. While we should I study.

    Help, please.

    Hi mariusme,

    The review, you have to take is VCP5-VTC. VCPD510 is for desktop, which is entirely different. Please go to the vmware certification page and select VCP5-DCV(vmware certified professional in datacenter virtualization) and you will find the action plan. You can follow it, and since you've followed the required courses, you will be eligible to take the certification. And also sign up for VTC - VCP on Vmware Portal before you book review on PearsonVUE.

  • Qual a difference between vmware vsphere, vcenter, workstation?

    OLA pessoal,

    Nunca trabalhei e com VMWare estou com doubt no deferred than tools vsphere, vcenter, workstation.

    Preciso testar uma Solução virtualizacao. Vou rodar dentro Windows 10, where seja, NAO preciso UM hypervisor rodando no como Hyper-V server hardware.

    So one size rodando no Windows para testar Doi servidores com some specific management.

    Me cadastrei no site da VMWare para testar a versão trial, mas não sei qual software download.

    ATT, Fabio

    Para sua need you can use o VMware Workstation or VMware Player o.

    Sober as diferencas, o VMware Workstation e uma Solução virtualizacao type-2, or seja, roda em cima of some system operational, alem do VMware Workstation we have outros exemplos como o VirtualBox e o Microsoft VirtualPC antigo.

    JA o VMware vSphere, ESXi e uma Solução virtualizacao do Tipo-1, or seja, roda diretamente em cima material, e por isso some vezes e re-usable chamado, e alem vSphere, ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V and Citrix XenServer o o we have.

    Por ultimo, o VMware vCenter Server nada but as UM software para os servidores com VMware vSphere, ESXi gerencia.

  • VSphere ESXi hypervisor free, re-usable clon server tests?

    Hello

    I tested VMWare vSphere, ESXi Hypervisor, the free program.

    I try to get tips motherboard I should buy to test the vSphere Hypervisor?

    I tested some form of Intel and Asus motherboard and Boot CD saysit cannot detect the network card. But in a Dell 2950 PowerEdge, it works very well.

    Another thing is that I read that in a motheboard with only SATA2 ports, the data store is detected as 'rare' and not 'local', so my final question is if vSphere is recommended only from servers brand or certification or if this could work in a re-usable/clon/DYI Server?

    Thank you very much

    Oliver

    Although the ESXi Hypervisor can run on office equipment - often only when equipped with an additional supported NIC - it's officially supported only on the server hardware that can be found in the VMware Compatibility Guide

  • VMware Vsphere Simulator 5.

    Hello

    My apologies if the question is redundant, but I just wanted to know if there is any Simulator available for VMWare Vsphere 5.

    I want something that I can install on my personal laptop running Ubuntu 12.04 with 3 GB of RAM or my laptop desktop running Win 7 and 4 GB of RAM.

    Intend to learn VMWare Vsphere/ESXi and improve my skills.

    A run than a search with "Simulator" in the forums and found on a single person had a similar question in the year 2011.

    It has been mentioned that you can install VMWare Workstation Trial Version etc., but can someone please direct me to a link where I can get more details?

    Hello

    There is no concept of a simulator, building a set of virtual machines to run the different components of vSphere (ESXi, vCenter Server, some 'shared storage') is the best approach, and you can run a whole environment on VMware Workstation in trial mode for 60 days.

    You will need more RAM if you want to run the bases on a single system - there is a post on my blog that has a useful info and excellent links: http://vmwaretraining.blogspot.co.uk/2011/06/building-vsphere-home-lab-for-vcpvcap.html

  • Can I use VMware vSphere CLI to perform a post on esxi 3.5 and 4.0?

    Currently, we use a bash script (mainly vimsh and esxcfg-* command) to set up post on our server ESX (vSwitch, service), update, etc..  I found that it is not a RCLI for vSphere 4.0?  a RCLI be rename to just CLI?

    Secondly, what tools or version would work for ESXi3.5 and 4.0?  Do not write code twice

    And finally, is there any limitation on the CLI or RCLI that it cannot be done locally by esxcfg-# or the VI client

  • 4 ESXi and VMware vSphere CLI

    Hello

    I can't start a discussion in the community CLI to I write here.

    When I try to use the CLI tools to manage a few shots on an ESXi 4 Server I get strange errors.

    CMD: snapshotmanager.pl - Server XXX.XXX.XXX. XXX - XXXXXX - nom_snapshot Test vmname - create operation

    Result:

    Fault:

    SOAP fault:

    -


    Error string: error. RestrictedVersion.summary

    Lack of details: RestrictedVersionFault

    The operation using 'list' works very well but not create or delete.

    No idea why it does not work for a 4.0 host but is ideal for a 3.5?

    The reason why it worked for you on ESXi 3.5 is probably the version you were using was U2 or U3 where the VI API has an internal bug that allowed two full read/write access, which allows you to perform operations such as switching to a virtual computer or take a snapshot. Go ESXi 3.5u4 +, which includes 4.0 moving forward, the API VI is read-only. Before more details please look here: http://vmetc.com/2009/03/31/esxi-u4-ends-free-version-read-and-write-access-from-the-rcli/

    You still have a few options, either unlock the console SSH not supported to automate snapshots using vimsh vim - cmd wrapper, using the VI Client or use VMware VIX and vmrun which currently is not governed by the VI API, take a look here for more information: is not happy with lockdown 3.5u4 VI API/RCLI ESXi? Worry not, VMware VIX to the rescue... for now =)

  • VMware Vsphere HA (problem of storage in common) and problem of band network bandwidth

    Hi all

    I am setting up VMware VSphere HA on ESXI 6.0

    I have 5 hosts running, each host has 2 management networks main network 1 vMotion and 1 network card for balancing with the management network. (each NIC 1Gbit uplink)

    I also attached to each card a FC (Fiber Channel) connected to HP 3PAR storage.

    each host have 1 TB or 2 TB Fiber Channel-attached storage.

    When I was setting up the AP he stated that he did not have any shared how storage can I allow other hosts to see each store data as a shared storage. NB: when I go vsphere client to web I see all the storage of each host.

    I also want to allow FT on a virtual machine, I have also a problem of bandwidth insuffisent or something. .

    also, I enabled fault tolerance on each NIC attached to the host.

    also another question: should I export volumes (LUNS) to all hosts in the AP? (in fact I exported each volume to each host separately) for example:

    Volume 1: HP3PAR_ESX1 exported to HOST ESX1

    Volume 2: HP3PAR_ESX2 exported to the ESX2 HOST

    Volume 3: HP3PAR_ESX3 exported to ESX3 HOST

    .. .etc

    can you me clear on this issue or guide me to where I can solve these problems please.

    When I try to activate the FT on the VM I the following warning attached

    This message was edited by: coolirc attached image FT problem

    There are memory FT requirements compatible VM is through two virtual, primary and secondary computers. so it will consume the same amount of resources of both ESXi hosts.

    VM with 10 GB of RAM allocation, turn on FT booking VM is now 10 GB RAM, so 10 GB + VMkernel consumption General host running primary VM and same amount of the host that is running with secondary VM. on top of this admission control in support of the failures of host we are going to tolerate so say primary VM host fails, then secondary VM becomes the new primary and triggers a new high school to be created and powered in one of the other host survivor in your HA cluster but which will be successful only when you have sufficient resources available to satisfy a reservation.

    your source host has 16 GB of RAM and one of the destination host also got 16 GB of RAM, so if you try to activate pi after disabling admission control on your cluster policy, I think that it should allow you to activate FT without errors. [if it still does not work so if possible, turn off all other virtual machines for free resources or to try to reduce their reservation manually if they are running with a reservation and try again.]

    with admission control, the necessary resources would be even higher.

    screenshot of Cluster summary reports that you have 4 guests in it and the memory resources available about 30 GB to 60 GB total memory. But isn't always the right figure, if you go to the monitor-> book resources, is where you will find actual "ready reserve", it's the right amount of reserve memory that you will be able to use across several virtual machines, you run in your cluster.

    I tried 2 vCPU vm FT in vSphere 6, works very well, but never tried with Hardware version 8, in your case, your virtual machine is hardware version 8, although I'm not sure if it is mandatory to have the hardware version 11 VM for FT so ideally it should work, but virtual hardware version if possible vm upgraded to 11.
