vSphere Client Configuration and alarm

Hello

I recently started a new job with a company and legacy of the current system and the network.  My knowledge of VMWare is ok, but I'm of course not as great as people in this community.  The issue I'm facing is that there is a constant alarm that needs attention.  We run vSphere Client 4.0.0.  The alarm is one of our stores in DB, and it's "use of the data store on disk.  The alert is set to trigger when 95% of the use of disk data store is reached.  The problem seems to be this VMFS configuration... Here are the analytical capability.  Ability to 99,75 go-go configured 99,55 space free space - 206 MB.

I contacted the company who originally put this in place, and their response is to ignore the alarm, because it is an efficient use of disk space.  Can someone please comment if this is acceptable or not to "ignore"?  I don't think it's the right way to set up a store of DB, but I just want to check.

Thank you

Jay

Hello and welcome to the forums.

You certainly don't want to ignore that.  See KB 1003412 for more information.

Good luck!

  • QueryResultNotFoundException was lifted when a workflow is called in vsphere client web and select a cluster

    Hello

    I use vsphere vCenter 6.0 and 6.0 Orchestrator vRealize. I save the vRO the vCenter in web client vRealize Orchestrator plugin.

    VRO 6.0 here is a "Add host to cluster" workflow under vCenter-> Host-> check management. I have add this workflow in the web client, so that I can call him when I right-click on a cluster.

    I run this workflow and select a cluster in the first stage, and click Next. An error like this:

    com VMware.o11n.Sdk.QueryService.QueryResultNotFoundException: could not find the object of type 'VC:ClusterComputeResource' with the id 'WIN-VCENTER6.MYDOMAIN.COM/domain-c28 '.

    I tried a few other env but get the same error. I also tried 5.5 and 5.5 vCO vCenter, and it worked fine.

    Does anyone know if this is a bug or if I can avoid this error by configuring my env? Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards

    Vicky

    Hi Vicky,

    When you have configured the server vCenter by vRO (using 'Add a vCenter server instance' the workflow), how did you address vCenter server - as an IP (for example. 10.20.23.34) or as a fully qualified hostname (eg. WIN-VCENTER6. MYDOMAIN.COM)? Please make sure that it was the last; If you have added your vCenters vRO using IP addresses or short host names, there might be a few problems, so you need to de-register the vRO vCenter and add them again.

  • VSphere Client/Vcenter and Datastore

    Hello

    Is it possible to know who were the last 5 virtual machines that were migrated on a specific data store?

    Thank you for your help,

    Kind regards

    Garish

    I see. This would mean THAT DTS is disabled.

    If you need to know which machines were moved manually?

    The fastest and the best way would probably be to query the database of vCenter. In the DB, the word 'relocate' refers to a data store migration. The database is vcdb.dbo.VPX_TASK.

  • Upgrade to vSphere client 5.1 U1 but using vCenter/ESXi 5.1 (not U1)

    So I saw this recommendation from VMware:

    -----------

    The sequence for vSphere 5.1 update update 1 and their compatible VMware product (2037630)

    If you are using vSphere Client in your environment, it is recommended that you upgrade the vSphere Client to version 5.1 update 1.

    -----------


    My ESXi servers are still 5.1 (build 799733, some to the build 1021289), and my vCenter Server 5.1.0 build 947673. I should be able to install this patch for the client vSphere on my workstation without problem. It is recommended that VMware, right? That the client must be upgraded, regardless of the version of the host?


    (I still don't think that the web client (again), so I want to continue to use the vSphere client, if and when I can)


    Thank you

  • Workstation / ESXi question - force vSphere Client to enter the CD-ROM drive

    This week I started to develop a practical system at home for me to learn VMware administration and systems.

    I installed ESXi 5 and Windows 7 Workstation 8, which is located in Windows Server 2008 on a server Dell T - 410 have a physical CD/DVD ROM drive.  In Win 7 I have the vSphere client installed and I get successfully to ESXi to manage and install other operating systems, which is where I'm stuck.  Note that, in my computer, I can take my Win 7 OS and in my computer has chosen to "eject" the drive with the OS I want to install.

    I am trying to install several virtual machines and have created two "containers" / "stubs" for these virtual machines (a Red Hat and a Win 2008 Server) but cannot get the vSphere Client interface to take control of the drive and pass it to the open Console.

    It is quite a matrix in the area of the drive options that is available.  What is the secret to be able to do this correctly, because all the videos I watched on YouTube where they are installing a system shows the OS that they install will ESXi very easily after choosing the CD/DVD-ROM drive... time to enter work station, which is where I'm NOT.

    How do I properly set up my CD/DVD-ROM drives in my computer so that ESXi installs the operating system?  I chose each drive letter and the option available but are unable to install the operating system.

    Thank you

    André Pett wrote: I think that we have understood this and that is the reason why WoodyZ mentioned ISO images.

    Yes, thats why I said what I did, and also because it's been a while since I've run ESXi in a VM and when I did I think the only way that I could install the operating system in a virtual machine when ESXi is a virtual computer was too use ISO images, which, of course, since it's my preference anyway it did not matter.  Now I only mention this because I don't remember for sure and using pictures is really the best way to go anyway.  Also, I don't have time to install ESXI in a virtual machine and go through the motions again.

  • vSphere Client 5 - blocking of editing DVD error

    I installed ESXi 5.0 Standard on a Dell r710.

    Loaded the vSphere client 5 on a PC running Windows operating system.

    I was able to connect to the ESXi server from vSphere client 5 and create a Windows 2003 server and 2008 Server VM.

    I loaded the Windows 2008 DVD in the local PC running the Windows operating system.

    When I start the virtual machine and connect the DVD containing the operating system, I see the following error message:

    Failed to get the State of the lock on the CD-ROM.

    The virtual machine tries to read the DVD and then I get an error stating, did not find hard drive.

    This happens on both virtual machines.

    Any ideas on what is happening and how I can get the local DVD mounted to install the operating system?

  • VMware vSphere: install, configure, manage [V4] still applies for VCP 4.1

    Hello everyone

    I took the VMware vSphere: install, configure, and manage 09/09...will the course of the class

    to apply for the exam for VCP certification?  If so how much time I have left with remaining

    eligible with this class to take the test?

    Thanks in advance...

    Your course was based on 4.0 at the time, the current VCP4 exam is not 4.1 specific as such, if your course still qualifies you for certification. VCP4 is specifically "VCP on vSphere 4", not 4.0 or 4.1.

    Get the review plan later, the study of literature 4.1 (in the case where VMware is updated the review of some elements specific to 4.1) and use the convenient software either 4.0 or 4.1.

  • Error loading of VMWare vSphere Client

    Hey guys, I'm a newbie in the world of VMWare and just live my first problem.

    My system was installed by a third party 3rd which, due to uncontrollable circumstatnces, is not accessible at this time.  So, I'm trying to see if someone can have a resolution for me.

    I use ESX 4.  When I open the vSphere client application and enter my login details, I get the heap following errors:

    The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)

    This application has failed to start because MSVCR71.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

    Fatal error VMware Remote Console: (player)

    SSLLoadSharedLibrary: Could not load library libeay32.dll:126

    The last error writes a dump file.

    This app worked perfectly all the time.  The problem started while I was on a business trip last week.  I suspect that some type of update (Microsoft, Java, etc.) is probably what is causing this problem.

    I tried to re-register the dll files, but it has not made a difference.  I would love to re - install the app, as suggested, but I am currently unable to find that the download on the VMware site.

    I'm just curious if anyone has any suggestions, or possibly the location of downloads?

    Thanks in advance,

  • Free version of ESXi can support for configuration of start and stop virtual machines via vSphere Client?

    I have read and found some documents on ESXi.

    According to the documents, I know that ESXi free version does not support some advanced virtual machine configurations and does not support write to ESXi host permission. But when I download ESXi from vmware.com, I can't find the free version. He will always be a trial of the licensed version edition because I can always do the configuration of start and stop virtual machines via vSphere Client installation. I can also run scripts (lamw) pl in vMA to stop the ESXi host (authorization to write ok?)

    Then I confused. How can I get the really free version of ESXi? Or will the free version after 60 days of evaluation?

    Start/stop above configuration is in vSphere Client via 'Configuration'-> "start/stop VM"-> "Properties"... «-> "Allow the virtual computers start and stop automatically with the system" actions setting and stop virtual machines can be configured to "comments"turn off computer"or"Suspend".» Can any body tell me if it's supported by ESXi free edition?

    Is the free version of vSphere Client too? Because when I use the vSphere Client, he told me that I have 60 days of evaluation. This confused me again. I think that vSphere Client is always free, am I right?

    Any suggestion or advice is much appreciated.  _

    Micky

    Configuration of start and stop virtual machines is available with the free version and licensed, with the free version you would be configured everything via vSphere Client, where as with a licensed version, you can optionally use scripts to configure it and also issue restarts/stops using scripts.

    Second, shutdownHostViaSOAPAPICall.pl for the version licensed and free of ESX (i), this script will work in both free and licensed because it uses direct SOAP calls emulating the vSphere Client communication. Take a look at the documentation for details, but this of course is not supported by VMware.

  • How to configure NTP between Virtual Machines without using Vsphere Client

    I have a group of 8 virtual servers of 5.5 ESXi without an Internet connection. There are virtual machines on each of these 8 virtual servers.

    I did one of these 5.5 virtual ESXi host a NTP server by editing the file /etc/ntp.conf with below configuration and

    started the ntpd daemon. He began to take the time to its local clock, here's the output of ntpq Pei

    IP server 10.108.190.14

    ip address of the client 10.108.190.15

    Server /etc/ntp.conf

    > > driftfile/var/lib/ntp/drift

    > > server 127.127.1.0 maxpoll 4

    > > fondant 127.127.1.0 stratum 10

    | ntpq Pei

    |   refid distance st t when poll reach delay offset jitter

    | ==============================================================
    | * LOCAL (0). LIUX. 10 l 2 64 377 0.000 0.000 0.001

    Then I edited the file /etc/ntp.conf on customers with below configuration but the customer would not synchronize with the server. He

    wouldn t get response from the server. Here is the output of ntpq Pei

    Customer /etc/ntp.conf

    > > driftfile/var/lib/ntp/drift

    | ntpq Pei

    |      refid distance st t when poll reach delay offset jitter

    | ==================================================================
    | 10.108.190.14 INIT. 16 u

    Now, when I configure NPT Client/Server on virtual machines through the Configuration Option under Option Configuration time

    in Vsphere Client everything works fine and the client and the server to synchronize with each other. I checked the file /etc/ntp.conf on both the client

    and the server and it has a couple of restrict 127.0.0.1 and restrict the lines added by default kod nomodify etc.

    So why NPT Server featured when enabled via Vsphere Client works very well, but it does not work when it is configured manually

    in the virtual servers directly.

    I was connected to a vCenter Server Appliance through the VSphere Client and enabled the synchronization of time of the NPT.

    I really need to know how to configure the NTP server without using the Vsphere Client so that I can automate the

    task by writing a python script that would connect to each virtual server and NTP Client/Server configuration.

    Any help in this issue deeply appreciated!

    Thank you!

    You can configure the ntp server without using viclient.

  • Suite of spring and vSphere Client Web plugins

    Hi, I'm new to this environment.  I'm developing VMware vSphere Client Web plugins.  Installing vSphere Web Client plugins, it is stated that favorite tools include Suite of spring, which is a derivative of the eclipse.  It is an optional component to use the tool, FlashBuilder.  Eventually, the VMware documentation states that you can use Eclipse instead of the spring tool Suite, but different configuration is necessary.

    I write here (instead of VMware/AST) for the following reasons.  I am able to set up the environment without the tool, FlashBuilder.  I am able to develop plugins Web Client without the tool, FlashBuilder.  However, I believe that the FlashBuilder tool will facilitate the development.  When I try to get the FlashBuilder to load, I get no longer things to work; I can't develop plugins Web Client.  Finally, the FlashBuilder tool is the only piece of the puzzle that is a licensed product, and therefore, I won't be able to buy the product if I can't get the trial version to work.

    FlashBuilder has an installer of plugin for Eclipse.  I tried to install the plugin following spring tools, and I tried to install the plugin in a regular version of the eclipse.  In both cases, the problem I encounter is that I cannot locate VMware files and does not have the Virgin service which is present when I didn't have the plugin installed FlashBuilder.

    Someone has no experience or knowledge in FlashBuilder getting to work in this type of installation?  Clearly, it's doable, but using all the documents that I can find online, I can't FlashBuilder work in my environment.

    Thanks for any help or suggestion you may have.
