• Cluster with different versions of ESXi - version vCenter

  I have a 2 cluster nodes ESXi 5.0.0.

  I intend to spend one of the 2 nodes to ESXi 5.5 U2 by inserting the CD of U2 ESXi 5.5 in the CD from the host and performing an upgrade: is there a question I should?

  Since a few days/weeks, I can't upgrade the second node.

  Is there any problem if one of the 2 i ESXi 5.0.0 and the other nodes is 5.5 U2?

  I plan to upgrade my vCenter as well after the upgrade to 2 knots. Where can I see the version of the vCenter (a virtual Windows VM)?

  Hi guy,

  Yes, connect your vSphere Client to your vCenter server.

  In the inventory on the left, click the server vCenter Server. The version number and compilation appeared in the main tab on the right.

• I want to connect to a network printer hp cp1518ni with different versions of windows (win7 & winxp)

  I want to connect to a network printer hp cp1518ni with different versions of windows (win7 & winxp). My pc with win 7 work ok, but the pc with win xp not 'see' the printer on the network. What is the additional driver should I install?

  Thank you

  Hi @OHIMATAS,

  I see by your post that you are unable to network that is connected the printer to the Windows XP computer, but Windows 7 computer. I can help you with this.

  Make sure that the Windows XP computer is connected to the correct network name, not a guest or the other network.

  Print a configuration page to get the IP address of the printer.

  Print a Configuration Page.

  Try and access the printer on the Windows XP Embedded Web server.

  Type the IP address in the address bar of your web browser. (Internet Explorer)

  It loads the page Web has?

  If you are unable to access SAP of the printer, check the IP address on the computer to see if the first 3 sets of numbers match the printer IP. They must match to be on the same network.

  Go to start, type executer run in the start search box, type cmd, and then type ipconfig.
  Check the IPV4 address.
  Now, check the IPV4 address for the printer.
  Do the first 3 sets of numbers match?

  Try and ping the printer.

  In the same window, type ping printers (space between ping and IP address) IP address
  What are the results?

  Run the Wizard add printer in printers and faxes, if you were able to access EWS of the printer.

  Please provide detailed results if you're still having problems.

  Good day!
  Thank you.

  Please forgive me for not knowing how to use this forum, I am an old man and not good at computers, I called Adobe, they said it was my only hope!

  Sorry to repeat

  Everything was fine until my Windows 10, lost the start feature, so I had to go back to Windows 7, in this process, I lost my Adobe Reader software, I tried about ten times with different versions and different locations, all with the same error message that is download "the feature you are trying to use is on an unavailable network resource"... are looking for It seems that it does not find when I search there, and I no longer seem to have the AcroRead.msi... the most difficult file, I try, I get deeper and deeper into things I don't know... I am looking for a simple solution!

  When it gets to this point, it is probably better to start from scratch.

• replication with different versions of vSphere vSphere

  After reviewing the matrix of interoperability of products, everything "looks" good, but caring for a second opinion.  See below:

  Environment:

  • vCenter 6 sites
  • PSC external sites
  • Protected site is vSphere 5.5 Update 2 or 3
  • Recovery site is vSphere 6.0 U2
  • vSphere 6.1 replication
  • 6.1 SRM

  Issues related to the:

  Can anyone confirm the support in regards to the different version of vSphere protected and recovery site?

  Are there related shades to have different versions of vSphere protected and recovery site?

  We can successfully failover to the recovery site, reprotect VMs to protected site and be restored in a site protected without problem?

  Different versions of vSphere are supported to recover protected site and as you have configured, it is recommended to have the new version on the recovering site. The reason for this and be careful about the different versions, has to do with the versions of virtual equipment. VMware ESX can run VMs with earlier versions of virtual hardware, but not later (came out after the version of vSphere). You want to make sure that your virtual machines will run on the host on the recovering site. If you are using a later version of vSphere to recovery, as long as you deploy new virtual machines when running it, or if you do this, you use a virtual hardware version that is compatible with the hosts what was your site protected, you will never come across the problem of trying to recover a virtual machine with the hardware version that is incompatible with vSphere.

  Issues related to the:

  Can anyone confirm the support in regards to the different version of vSphere protected and recovery site? -Yes

  Are there related shades to have different versions of vSphere protected and recovery site? -See above

• Add esx cluster with different cpu

  Hi all

  I have a cluster with 5 esx 4.0 u1-208167, which installed on IBM x 3550 M2 ((2 x Intel® Xeon™ processeur E5520) .)

  I want to add a server to server cluster .the is IMB x 3550 m3 (2 x Intel® Xeon™ processor E5620 4 c)

  do I have to make a chenges on Esx servers / vm / vcenter when I add the new esx for my datacerter and to the cluster so I can do Vmotion / storage migrate this server in the cluater (I have the appropriate license and plug)?

  Thanks for the help

  is there another way to activate the CEV on my existing cluster and does not create a new?

  You can try to create a new cluster and select CVS it and move all your hosts to this cluster

  should I turn off my vm all?

  You will need to put the hosts in maintenance mode. So what you can do is put the host 1 in maintenance mode, virtual machines will move to host 2. Now move the new active EVC cluster host 1 and continue to do this until all of your hosts are in the cluster. You can try vMotion your VM 2 host to host 1 which is now in the new cluster, but it all depends on what your processor will hide VCA is activated... And if you cannot vMotion, virtual machine in a VCA not to an active evc cluster cluster, then Yes, you will have to turn off and restart your virtual machines in the new cluster

  I also have SRM ad site.do I need to activate the CEV on the cluster, I have here (a different Vcenter)

  No u don't.

• HA mixing different versions of ESX

  Hi people,

  We have the following environment:

  -Virtual center with the latest version of vsphere.

  -3 with the version of vsphere esx hosts 4.

  -3 the esx 3.5 esx host version.

  Is it possible to configure the cluster HA of mixture that? (only on version... of course they shared the same storage, same labels of networking etc...)

  Thanks in advance

  Yes, fully supported.

• Go to the local site, even with different versions of DreamWeaver (CS3 and CC2016)

  I have a need to occasionally change a site with DW CS3 because of a plugin used to LASSO programming. But I would do most of the work in the last DW2016. Is there a problem with access to the same site (local on my Mac) with two different versions of DW? I would like to only access and edit pages with the old version. I know that I could get some weird previews in the old version, but are there other issues should I be aware of?

  No problem I can think of, apart from one slightly different code entry than the other. CS3 will use outdated html attributes for things that later versions use CSS to accomplish (centering text and other). It's still going to work in all major browsers, but the CS3 code won't be to modern standards, if you use it for more than the old extension.

• Cluster with different host - resource pools hardware?

  Hello

  We have currently three generations of servers at base of AMD in our environment - with different CPU clock speeds.

  Guests are split into three groups and VMs are grouped based on clock speed.

  But frankly, it's a mess to administer.

  We envisage the creation of a single cluster and using pools of resources.

  But CPU resource pools take host speed of the CPU in return?

  - Or they just sure that VMs receive their share of CPU temps on loan-time partial?

  Best regards

  Martin

  Pools of resources sharing works only when there is some conflict of resources.

  -VMs in 'high' will appear on hosts with fast processors? - and get the most MHz?

  The actions are only priority... Then no.

  With a reservation... it depends on how much MHz offers...

  - Or they simply receive a high share of CPU time on a random host?

  By shars Yes...

  But remember the first sentence!

  If you have enough of free resources, all virtual machines are also (for actions).

• Apparent lists with different versions of PDF plugin for Firefox

  Two Firefox 37.0.2 Adobe Acrobat plug-ins are listed:

  Adobe Acrobat 11.0.10.32 (Adobe PDF plugin for Firefox and Netscape 11.0.10)

  Adobe Acrobat 15.7.20033.2203 (Adobe PDF plugin for Firefox and Netscape 15.7.20033)

  All Adobe applications (including the two above) come as part of our Adobe Creative Cloud subscription.

  Questions:

  1. why the two plugins listed?

  2. the two entries represent a plug in handset, or are indeed two different versions of the Adobe Acrobat plugin installed?

  3. How can the apparently older plug-ins be uninstalled?

  Windows 7 installed programs indicates that an entry of Adobe Reader:

  Adobe Reader XI (11.0.10)

  We have recently updated to Adobe Acrobat DC. It is listed under programs such as:

  Adobe Acrobat DC

  Hi BigMacMan,

  Both plug-ins are for two different versions of Acrobat. The last (version 15.7...) is for Acrobat DC.

• Actually an ESX cluster with different times may have problems?

  Hello

  Recently, I hired a company to install a cluster EXES 3.5.

  After leaving, I discovered that the two machines, ESX1 and ESX2 have hours different (about 12 hours difference). The company said that it is impossible that the two machines have the same time, because I don't have a time server on the LAN.

  I am facing many problems with the cluster.

  Some of the machine should ocupy 100 GB and 200 GB are using (I have no pictures of this machines)

  When my VM SAP jumps from ESX1 to ESX2 services down

  The VCB does not detect the majority of virtual machines and I can't see them on BE 12

  The problem of cluster could be related?

  Thanks in advance,

  Luis Estevens

  You really do need get guests in sync. As has already been noted SAP (or any database system) will not be as if all of a sudden she is 12 hours in the future or the past.

  If you do not have an internal time server (there are a couple of freeware NTP servers that run on Windows) you can use an external time source. I use pool.ntp.org (http://www.pool.ntp.org/en/use.html) it is a great service they have around l 'Robing' between the time sources. For this he both ESX hosts should be able to make outbound connections to port 123 (NTP) UDP.

• Report generation-> generate an exe from a PC with different Version of Office

  Hello

  I want to build an exe from a VI that use Report Generation Toolkit. The application must be deployed on multiple PCs using Office 2000. During the development phase, I installed Office 2000 on my PC, and everything was ok. After that I was with her, I have reinstalled Office 2007. The Report Generation Toolkit to my PC is so for Office 2000 (it was installed when I had Office 2000 on my PC).

  These days I had to fix a few bugs in my application, I did a new exe but the part that generates the Word reports (using the GTA) doesn't work anymore - I received this error with-35... 9935 (or something like that).

  I tried to find the problem and I found this: with exactly the same VI (_Word dynamic VIs.vi - for Office 2000) nodes invoke from a PC with Office 2007 and Office 2000 PC look different. For example, in Word_Open_Document.vi, the node to invoke Document is different for a PC with Office 2000 + GTA for the year 2000 and a PC with Office 2007 + GTA for Office 2000 (no error).

  So, I tried to copy the VI from a PC with Office 2000 + GTA 2000 on my PC but I can't build it because I get the error: there are a few errors in dynamic VIs.vi _Word (invoke nodes do not match).

  Finally, my question is: How can I build the exe on my PC: 2007, but with GTA for Office 2000 Office?

  Thank you

  Paul

  Hello

  Thank you for your advice. Can you please tell me what you mean with the envelope vi? I don't really understand what you mean.

  Furthermore, I solved the problem. I discovered that the nodes invoke are updated based on the object library for the ActiveX control (in this case the MS Office). The data types are store in the msword9.olb (version 9 - for office 2000 in the Office folder) and msword.olb (version 12 - for office 2007 also in the Office folder). I tried to save the msword9.olb (using the regsvr32.exe) but it does not work for olb files - I need the ocx or dll. But, if I can replace the msword.olb since Office 2007 Office msword9.olb 2000 everything works.

  OK, measures that need to be made:

  1. install the GTA for Office 2000 on the PC

  2. DON'T change anything in the VIs.vi _Word_Dynamic. When Office 2007 is installed the VI arrow should be ventilated (error in VI)

  3 copy the msword9.olb for a system with Office 2000 (or your version) and copy it to your system with Office 2007 with the new name msword.olb. Are NOT FORGET to make a backup of the original file to MS Office 2007 and handing it to the end.

  4. once the new msword.olb is there, the VIs.vi _Word_Dynamic should be no error

  5. build your app exe

  6. restore the old msword.olb

  7. ENJOY your life!

  I hope that it is also useful for someone else.

• Can do without the virtual online computer between 2 different vCenters with different Versions?

  Hi all

  I want to spend some VM to a vCenter to another without downtime. These 2 vCenters are different geographical locations.

  I have a vCenter with Version 4.1 and another in 5.1. I want to move the VM 4.1 Setup configuration 5.1 mode.

  Can we use SRM to move the machine between 2 data centers (allows for example between Richmond and Rockville)?

  Thanks in advance.

  -Isabelle

  No, it is not possible to move machines running using MRS, but it is an option if the possibility exists for downtime, also it will allow migration to predict.
