vSphere and VCB / license not available

We went from Standard Edition VI3 to vSphere 4 Standard + Storage VMotion. Since then, the 1.5 VCB backup fails.

I saw this message in the tasks of the vSphere client window:

Task name: reconfigure the virtual machine

Status: License not available for this operation

When I click on the 'Détails' link I got the message that you can see on the screenshot.

During execution of the backup VCB some messages "Reconfigure virtual computer" appear and are successful.

We use VCB mode "hotadd" and both VCB (user and proxy) have all the rights in vCenter (for testing).

This license (add hot VM?) or what else I miss? Like VMware hot add doesn't not part of vSphere standard, does this mean that our VI3 VCB Standard license went?

No, I doubt that there is no difference in behavior between virtual and physical proxies. If your backups are working, I think that they are returning to the NDB mode rather than using hot add. If they do not work, set the type of transport to the next during business day that we are working on solving the problem.

The question that we know currently has to do with VMware Data Recovery - this product uses the vcbAPI. However, the license error is the same.

I don't know if there is a fix for VCB 1.5 in the works, so I would recommend that you produce the SR, then we can follow it.

  • Help - what is and what is not available in free version of ESXi 3.5 U4?  VIMA?  VI Toolkit?

    Hello

    I'll try to find a (web page perhaps) summary of what is and especially what is NOT available in free version of ESXi 3.5 Embedded U4.

    Like many people I guess, I spent hours looking for a way to perform certain operations on virtual disks, to see that these operations have been banned in the free version of ESXi 3.5 U4.  It is reasonable, after all, if someone gives you a horse, don't look in his mouth!  But while I'm happy to be an ESXi 'amateur' to a certain extent, I'm starting to feel like a pirate, and I'm doing this a bit more productive experience.  Here's what I found so far:

    -Some of the most useful features in VMware Tools (such as 'narrowing of the virtual disks') seem to have no useful effect in ESXi 3.5 U4 Embedded free version

    -L' operation-e vmkfstools.pl RCLI to rename the virtual disk (moving) and the i - operation to clone (copy / import / export) a virtual disk seem to be disabled (due to lack of return. RestrictedVersion.summary)

    -vim - cmd does not provide what be good beyond what you can do in VI Client

    In particular, can someone tell me if it is interesting to study the following, that is I'll be able to do anything discs at all useful to the virtual with them in ESXi 3.5 U4 Embedded free version:

    -VIMA

    -VI Toolkit (for Windows)

    Thanks for any help/pointers.

    Take a look at this article: http://vmetc.com/2009/03/31/esxi-u4-ends-free-version-read-and-write-access-from-the-rcli/, it should provide general information on the ESXi set and the problem of read-only.

    As ESXi never was intended to provide full access to the VI API, you get what you pay for and in this case, you use the free version so that you can accomplish all of these tasks with the VI Client, if you want more, you'll have to pay for it.

    So first off, vim-cmd is only available with the unsuppoted SSH console and you can probably do most of the basic tasks through some scripted as a shell script automation, also in the console Busybox unsupported, you have full access to the very familiar vmkfstools. Now, you mention vmkfstools.pl is the remote version of the tool, because it is not available by default with ESXi (as the console does not support is not supported by VMware). To manage and configure your remote host ESX and ESXi, vCLI was created that replicates most of the popular esxcfg-* commands that use the API of VI

    This VI API is not free, you have full read access but if you want to set up/perform all operations that aren't will not be played, then you will need to have a license appropriate and which is at the Foundation or higher. The API is exposed as WSDL/SOAP and there are various scripts/languages with links that hang in the VI API to provide a level of abstractions for programmers, administrators, some of these languages include Microsoft Powershell, Perl, c#, Java, etc.

    PowerCLI (officially VI Toolkit Windows) is such a link that uses the VI API, i.e. to use it you will need to have the appropriate permit to change the configuration of other you will have only read access, it's similar to Perl called vSphere SDK for Perl bindings. So, if you're going to explore other routes, you will always encounter the same fundamental question.

    Okay, vMA (officially VIMA) is just a VAPP VMware RHEL that provides administrators a way to centrally manage / to distance your servers ESX/ESXi and vCenter. It comes by default with the vSphere THAT SDK Perl and a few other utilities to help manage/configure your systems and once again they depend on the VI API which access set based on the licenses that you have on your hosts.

    So all the options are options, but you need to know if you are going to get a license, because without the most basic, you will not be able to use one of these toolkits. Note that the license NOT only does full read/write access to the API but other features depending on the license you buy.

    There are other tools that provides VMware which, for now, temporarily has functions of management for virtual machines ONLY, this may change in the near future but take a look at this thread for more information post: is not happy with lockdown 3.5u4 VI API/RCLI ESXi? Worry not, VMware VIX to the rescue... for now =)

    I hope that this clears up everything.

  • WLAN channels 12 and 13 are not available in Europe

    Hello

    If I run a German WindowsXP SP2 and VistaRC2 it is impossible to connect to access points using channels 12 and 13 which should be available in Europe.

    It is especially a problem when connecting to public access points where I can not change the configuration.

    All advice how to fix this problem?

    Thank you very much
    Dirk Roemer

    Hello

    Only 11 channels are used in the United States.
    So eventually the new Vista RC2 is not available to receive the 12 and 13 WiFi channel.
    He should know that the RC2 version is not the official final version of Vista and it contains more than 1500 bugs at this time. I think that this version contains the WLan standard values for the American market.

    In addition, Intel 9.x WLAN drivers implement a new specification that allows configurations specific to each country through access points (AP).
    If one of the APs in the range (not necessarily the AP, the wireless network adapter is connected to!) broadcast such a configuration countries, channels that are not allowed in this country, the Intel WLAN card will cease to use channels.
    In their default settings, APs supporting this specification will accept only channels 10 and 11.

  • vSphere and vCenter license price is based on the YEAR?

    Hello

    Even if I already know as the product of vSphere and so forth and I am familiar with other virtualization technologies (I will avoid to mention here), I would like to ask about the license costs.

    Currently, we use various stand-alone vSphere servers (sometimes evaluation license and a free license for 5.5), but I would like to have vMotion Metro and subnet rather than in private solutions like 'Veeam' quick migration, etc.

    I went to see the costs... which are generally extremely high, but then I realize that the cost is basic 1 year or 3 years, which means that all VMWare license costs are billed ANNUALLY?

    I mean, if I have 3 hosts ESXi and a cVenter with cost € 4000 will be € 4000 per year? I think it's crazy.

    Can anyone confirm?

    Concerning

    Hey,.

    When you buy the license first, you pay X amount, which includes the license to base 1 or 3 years Support and subscription (SnS).

    After this time, you pouvez renew your SnS for amount Y. For vSphere, one year basic Support is about 10% of the initial report and if I remember correctly.

    But you don't have to renew the SnS, your software will continue to work.

    SnS assets allows you to call VMware and leader in applications for support and very important: you can upgrade your license to the new major version keys when it comes out.

    If for example you can improve your keys of vSphere vSphere 5 6 keys subsequently.

  • Standby and Hibernate is not available

    I serve these functions for several years on my T40 2373-94U - until they have ceased to be available. Information Lenovo has not resolved the problem, not the internet in general. I have the latest version of the BIOS, and I think that the hibernation is enabled, but do not know what are the correct settings - so I'm using the default values. Power management software is up to date. Command powercfg info line shows that these functions are not available. I wonder if I should re-flashing the bios, or consider that other software (I don't know what on my system too complex) intervenes. Ideas and suggestions are appreciated.

  • tab KVM and vm is not available in the console kvm the Mmic

    Hi guy,

    Nice day!

    Today, I spend all day looking for the solution to this, but it was a bad day for me. I have access to the server cisco UCS 220 M3 Mmic and when I clicked the button on console kvm on the page group MMIC, the kvm and vm tab does not appear on the console kvm page. When I clicked on the virtual media in the menu, it's only to create image and enable vm media, there is no "Add images" option available for me to download the ISO image of vmware on the server.

    I tried to update the firmware for MMIC and BIOS, but no luck for me. Grateful if someone can help me with that!

  • One migrated from my virtual machine to another host VSphere and it does not start

    I have a virtual machine that I've initially converted to Hyper-V to host VSphere. After I did it would start very well, but I got up two errors when starting.

    "An IDE controller is found but the VM does not support the option" and

    "A plate supporting the option not found."

    When I looked at the hard drive in the settings it looks like it is not supported. Is it because I badly converted to Hyper-V to VSphere using VMWare Converter?

    But now, I configure VCenter Server and tested a migration of these machines to another host and using the VSphere Client. It does not start now. I get an error message that says.

    "Device 'drive hard 1' uses a controller that is not supported." This is a general limitation of the compatibility of the virtual machine with the selected host ESXi version. »

    Remember that it is the same VSphere host it is running on initially. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    If it works now - is that correct? n ' forget not to award points useful and/or correct

  • Missing measures of server Java and GC service not available

    Hello

    I'm new to the custom plugin. So I'm following JMX Plugin tutorial (http://support.hyperic.com/display/DOC/JMX+Plugin+Tutorial) to create a plugin that is customized for a simple Java process. I use the plugin displayed in the tutorial link XML.

    The problem is that I could use the command line (java-jar < Agent Directory > /pdk/lib/hq-product.jar-Dplugins.include=yourPluginName m discover - a metric) for all measures. I have attached the results of the command line.

    However, on server HQ (localhost:7080), the availability, the use of the Cpu process, processes resident memory size are taken. And the GC services are auto-decouvert, but they appear as unavailable. I enclose two screenshots of the HQ server.

    Please help what I missed. It is very important for us to evaluate product Hyperic. Thank you very much.

    It seems that the metric collection is not enable for the rest of the metric.

    Check the default trace on the administration tab. And where each resource collection of parameter can be set by changing the metric models. I hope it's as simple as that...

    Naturally all parameters are not enabled by default.

  • License not available to perform the operation

    Hi guys

    Sorry, it's probably quite a simple, but I've lost a little and could do with some help.

    My environment is:

    1 x vCenter

    1 x ESXi 4

    1 x ESX 3.5

    Now the problem is with the ESX 3.5 server. I try to add in my vCenter environment. I created a license existing server and am currently using an eval on the 3.5 Server license.

    When I try to add the server to the vCenter, I received the following message:

    [email protected] for vCenter Server houston.wira.explor.co.uk Server license does not include the agent for ESX Server vCenter. Update licenses on the license server.

    Do I need another license to add the 3.5 eval in my environment?

    Thank you

    can you ensure that the license file has vcenter agent and if all are deleted it suggests the resettlement of licensing as an another front and rectify it doing.

    By default the BIOS settings and reinstall Win8 again. Test it and if it has same problem occurs again, I highly recommend you contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider. It's the new notebook with valid warranty so it should be fixed for you.

    BSOD can be related to hardware or even software so problems if the gift factory settings help t I think service should check it out.

    Hello

    I don't know if you would be able to choose a different configuration of m stereo speaker.
    The point is that most laptops are equipped with 2 stereo speakers, and to be honest I didn't see another stereo audio option in the sound settings.

    As I m not wrong not you should have two different audio options in the control panel. Realtek HD audio manager and sound.

    You should first check the configuration of the sound.
    On the playback tab choose speakers and set up. You can also go through the configuration of the speakers together.

    In any case, there must be an option called stereo.
    You are able to choose an alternative stereo?
    If not then it of not possible to change the kind of speakers!
