VSphere Client multiple connections to a single server vCenter Server?

• V5 vSphere Client VI - connectivity to vCenter Server via the non-ideal DNS configuration

  Here's a theoretical question that I fight for an answer at the bottom.   For example, the question is:
  ..
  You have a VI Client in Active Directory (AD) domain n ° 1 with its own DNS, DNS #1 System.
  You have a server vCenter and ESX hosts in AD #2 with its own system DNS, DNS #2 domain
  The vCenter server and esx in AD #2 servers have DNS entries in DNS as follows #2...
  vcenter1. DNS2.com
  Esx1.DNS2.com
  ESX2. DNS2.com
  However, in AD #1 the same servers have entered DNS DNS #1 as follows...
  vcenter1. DNS1.com
  Esx1.DNS1.com
  ESX2. DNS1.com
  The VI in AD #1 client must connect properly on the vCenter server, using the DNS #1 name vcenter1.dns1.com.   It's pretty obvious.  However, what happens when you start a console KVM remotely to one of the virtual machines on VMware ESX Server?  I don't think it'll work.  I think that the VI client is trying to communicate with the service console of the ESX Server hosting the virtual machine by using the DNS entry of the ESX Server that is known to vCenter server, IE esx1.dns2.com, which is not a FULL domain name in the DNS # 1 VI client.
  I need to review this issue for VC2.5U6 with ESX 3.5U5 and an implementation of vSphere 5, even though I think that it is the same for all versions.   Incidentally, I read KB749640, talking about DNS but I don't think it covers where the VI client is a DNS domain disparate with DNS names of the esx servers different to the one known by the VC server.
  I hope the above is clear.  Can develop if necessary
  Thank you, Jan

  ESX host name is esx1.test.com.

  In provided customer vSphre the hostname for connectivity is different. for example: esx1.prod.com, however this name is directed to the same host with intellectual property.

  To do this, we edit hosts file c:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts.

• VSphere client, cannot connect to Vmachine on ESXi5

  Hello

  I hope someone can helpme or guide me on this one.

  I already create two VMs on ESXi5 and their spouse on my domain, I can controlit from the console on esxi (via vsphere client)

  but... If I try to connect directly to the vmachine of my office via vsphere client I had a conection error

  I try with my domain user and the password

  I try with the checkbox "use the same windows credentials" and still the same...

  I thought maybe I give permmits to the vmachine directly from Esxi5, but I noticed that does not show in my area and I can't add my name of user or groups. I wonder if theres some how to join my esxi5 welcome to my domain and then can show my domain name such as an option to choose some users of group or individual userid

  (see attached)

  Thank you and have a nice day of departure (sound almost 07:00)

  You can join your ESXi your unter AD-> authentication services configuration.

  But that can only be allows you to assign permissions to allow users to connect to your server ESXi with the vSphere Client and do things over there, like create virtual machines or use its console your AD.

  To access the operating system inside the virtual machine remotely, use RDP, VNC, XDMCP, etc as a.p. said

• VMware vSphere Client - automatic connection

  Is it possible to put in place a shortcut that will automatically log on to a server ESXi?

  The problem here is that the icon that you use to launch the vSphere client is just Launcher. If you have 3.5, 4.0 and 4.1 hosts the Launcher would make the decision on this client to connect with, according to the destination host. The usual method to find what command line options are available in the windows program is program.exe /? Is listed for the vSphere client.

• Problem with USB auto connect with clients that connect through the Security server...

  Lack of VMware View 5.0.1 with 2 servers connection and a security server. When the clients connect directly to the server connection, USB connection works very well... users can use their USB drives and other devices with their VM. The problem occurs when they attempt to use their USB devices when negotiated through the Security server.

  I know that port 32111 (TCP) must be open between the server security and the connection to the server, but even after doing so it does not always work... customers just to get the scrolling message of office in the USB menu initialization.

  Our current facility is:

  External IP address-> DMZ (Security Server)-> connect to server

  Entrust us our firewall config through our ISP (we are not overloaded with scientists here, it's just me, so things like little help my work load). They are certainly not incompetent (or at least were not in the past). I had to open the external 32111 IP port to the DMZ, then of the DMZ to our connection server that is used for external connections. Everything about VMware View works perfectly for the clients that connect this way, but not USB devices.

  One thing I give is if our having a configuration of VLAN dedicated for customers views influence what either. I'm trying to keep an eye on what ports are open that for our firewall for my records, but I do not see where I openly opened ports on the internal side of security server to our internal network. He must have the port opened directly from the internal face of security server of vmware 32111 discovers clients?

  The firewall Guys tell me that they checked over and over that port 32111 is open throughout the. They also said that they tried to telnet 32111 to our security server port and have nothing back (should have gotten garbage at least according to them).

  An idea of the next steps to take? It is obviously a blocked port, I just have no idea why at this stage.

  I know that port 32111 (TCP) must be open between the server security and the connection to the server, but even after doing it still does not work

  This is not what it takes. The agent is listening on the port 32111, you must open the firewall to allow connections to the Security server for the desktop on port 32111 (same thing you must allow RDP and PCoIP).

• Client cannot connect to the ESX Server

  I have 3 Server ESX 3.5 update 2. I can't connect to them using the VI client and I can not navigate to the IP Address of the server. I can telnet to the port 902 and 903 but not 443.

  The guests are working well.

  When I use the VI client I get customer VI could not establish the initial connection with the server. Details: a connection failure has occurred.

  Could someone tell me what command should I enter to start the service 443 or anything else, I need to check?

  Thank you

• 506th PIX and VPN client - multiple connections connections

  I have a PIX of the 506th (6.2) w/3DES license and 3.6.3 VPN client software. I'm only using group user name and password to authenticate. The first user login works fine. When the second user connects, the first is finished and the second works very well. The product turned on States I should be able to have 25 simultaneous connections or site to site or customer.

  Any help will be greatly appreciated, Kyle

  Are these two users on the same site, behind a device that makes PAT? If so, then this device is causing the problem, not the PIX. The device is unable to correctly translate the IPsec packets. Unfortunately nothing you can do about it on the PIX, although the next version of the software (6.3 to your calendar of March) will have NAT - T support (which the client currently supports). Once that support NAT - T both ends, they'll be able to say that there's a PAT instrument between the two and they will automatically encapsulate everything in the UDP packets, which your PAT instrument will be able to translate correctly.

• VPN client - multiple connection possibilities?

  Hi people,

  My basic question is, Cisco VPN Client allows two simultaneous VPN connections at the same time?

  I would like to implement the following:

  Customer user (remote access VPN via Internet)--> Head Office c/o ASA 5520 pair--> (VPN remote access via Internet)--> pair of Branch Office ASA 5510 S + a/s

  For example, to access the Branch Office system, the user must:

  1. connect to the peer of Head Office ASA via Cisco VPN Client (the user/password authentication)

  Head Office ASA peer gives an 172.16.1.x private IP address and is configured to route all requests for public office ASA IP through its own public IP address.

  2. once Head Office VPN is established, the user establishes a SECOND VPN tunnel of the Cisco VPN client (user/password and focused on the cert auth)

  I.e. branch sees the VPN connection try from the public IP address of Headquarters and therefore allows the VPN through the ACL traffic and allows the continuation of the VPN negotiations as usual.  Customer is given another IP address private, 192.168.10.x.

  Basically, I need to limit the remote access VPN branch to make it only accessible from Headquarters public IP address, no public IP address of the user (and therefore the entire internet).

  
  

  I know this is an unusual configuration, and some will say on the sensitivity of security to allow two simultaneous VPN connections.  These are the two networks of trust, strict ACL would be at stake and there is a long history behind this requirement...

  Thanks in advance!

  Alistair,

  You can limit the access of VPN connections to branch by blocking connections on UDP ports 500, 4500 UDP and ESP and allowing him only from your home office. In this way, only the explicitly authorized public IP address of your home office would be able to connect to your remote sites by using an IPSec tunnel.

  Now, on the second tunnel I don't think it's possible. As far I am aware you cannot have two connections to VPN at the same time of the same customer. The VPN will not let you do, it's mainly because when you have a VPN Client the VPN map session comes up and you can only one card virtual VPN.

  Because I don't think it is possible I would advice to try something like this:

  http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/products/HW/vpndevc/ps2030/products_configuration_example09186a008046f307.shtml

  Could provide you the connectivity that you are looking for without needing a second tunnel VPN from the client side.

  I hope this helps.

• vSphere client from the Web do not show vCenter

  Hello

  Not sure if this is the choice correct forum ask...

  I installed 5.5 Esxi and vCenter og vSphere Web Client 5.5 trial version to do some lab... Everything went ok, but when I start the Web Client vSphere vCenter server is displayed. I thought this was going to be added automatically, I've logged on with domain administrator and this user have full administrator on the vCenter server access. I did some googling, and it seems that I must follow the solution below, can anyone confirm? Is this a known issue?

  Not all administrators have permissions to manage the server vCenter Server by default, so you must open a session using the [email protected] account, add the domain to the "Sources of identity" and configure permissions on the vCenter server object in the inventory.

• Unable to connect to vCenter Server 5.0 using the vSphere Client - unknown error.

  I am trying to connect to vCenter using vSphere client (from different computers, including the server itself) and get this:

  vSphere Client could not connect to "vCenter_Server_IP_Address".
  A unknown connection error has occurred. (The request has failed because of a logon failure. (Unable to connect to the remote server))

  I am able to connect to the host directly, but of course, can't do anything with it since the vCenter is "in da house".

  There is no problem with it, not big changes and nothing indeed directly on the server vCenter (i.e. W2008r2x64) so, my confusion deepens. 5.1 ESXi

  Any ideas what could have happened and how to fix it?

• vSphere client using the name Netbios on ESXi host does not connect using the credentials of a Windows session

  I have 3 ESXi 5.5 hosts, all connected to a single server vCenter, where we try to authenticate directly to the host by using the windows logon credentials. I have installation of the Administrators group of ESX and filled with the admin accounts that I want to be able to authenticate to the host. The Netbios name of the domain is tstdomain (for example) where the domain name is tstdomain.com. If I connect directly to a host and check the checkbox 'Use Windows Session Credentials', the vSphere client will default by using the Netbios name of tstdomain\adminusername and the connection will fail indicating that the username and/or password is incorrect. If I enter the domain name of tstdomain.com\adminusername, I am able to connect to the host without error.

  Does anyone know how get past that this matter have the vSphere client uses the domain name or to use the Netbios name and connect with the credentials to active directory? I looked by editing the file/etc/hosts and checked that the SPN of the host is correct in active directory with the command hostname setspn - l, with no luck on one. I also tried to change the field of research for the Netbios name of tstdomain rather than the tstdomain.com domain name, also did not work.

  Thanks in advance for your suggestions on how to correct the problem.

  Seems that this issue was due to a slow network and the connection timeout when you try to talk to the domain controller. I am able to connect with windows creds now, but the connection is very slow. I increased the default period of 30 to 60 seconds to help work around the problem.

• Saving a vCenter Server in vSphere Client Web (5.5)

  Hello

  I was wondering if it is possible to save multiple vCenter servers (all vCenter Server devices) with a single instance of vSphere Web Client that runs on one of these devices to vCenter?

  VCSA1 > use built in Web Client to manage all vCenter servers.

  VCSA2 > register with VCSA1.

  VCSA3 > register with VCSA1.

  I find no 5.5 specific information but what I've read I think it's possible on 5.1. The ' admin - cmd.sh' script does not seem to be present in my 5.5 VCSA however.

  VSphere Documentation Centre

  The Server system, a device to vCenter Server vCenter is pre-recorded with the vSphere Client Web inside the unit. To register for another system of vCenter Server with the vSphere Client Web installed as part of a vCenter Server Appliance, you must use the admin-app script from the command line rather than the Web-based administration tool.

  vCenter Infrastructure Navigator 5.7 Documentation Center

  /usr/lib/VMware-vSphere-client/scripts/Admin-cmd.sh register https://WebClient.mydomain.com:9443 / vsphere client Director of VC.mydomain.com 'CENSORSHIP'

  Thanks for any help.

  The admin app is no longer available with vCenter 5.5. If you register all the vCSA to a SSo central, they will all see the place in the web client unique management this SSO Server vCenter.

• Display Client to connect to multiple servers connection?

  I work for a company that has a lot of customers who have the configuration of Vmware View. Sometimes I use it for remote access to their networks when im doing support for them, but unfortunely it seems that the View Client can only connect to a single server for connection of both organizations.

  Is it possible to change this default behavior?

  For example, our internal broker is desktops.ourdomain.local... but I also want to connect to your desktop at desktops.customerxyz.com too.

  There is an unsupported switch allowing you to have multiple sessions running view sublabel.   I don't remember if it is - standalone or just a standalone-, but that should do the trick.
