vSphere port replication group

What type of failover policy is necessary for a port of dvs group used for replication of vSphere? (active / active)?  (active / standby?)

I recommend always to use Active/active, unless there is a reason not to. For example, if you have two cards of VMkernel iSCSI on the same subnet and you must use the binding of ports.

  • SRM vSphere possible replication or SAN?

    Hello


    Just curious to know if you can configure the replication SAN with the SRA to who is matched (1 site, Site 1DR) and then also configure Replicator Vmware for SAN systems who don't not have built in replication.


    Is it possible to install?  Let me know?

    VMware and vSphere replication port replicator?

    Use vSphere replication, you must deploy the unit of replication vSphere on each site, and you can use the same server of MRS. along the coast with SRA.

    Combined based on the Bay and vSphere replication of the limits of Protection with SRM

    With MRS, you can run groups of protection based on the Bay alongside vSphere protection groups on the same SRM Server replication. However, the total number of protection groups cannot exceed 250. For example, you cannot create 150 groups of protection based on the Bay and then create 250 vSphere replication protection associations, because this creates 400 total protection groups. If you have 150 groups of protection based on the Bay, you can create an additional 100 vSphere protection of the replication groups, for a total of 250 groups of protection.

  • Reconfigured HP Data Replication Group does not present as a group of SRM data store

    Hello

    I configured in two data centers with an EVA4000 on the source site and an EVA4400 on the destination site, countered with Continuous Access EVA of SRM.

    I had replicated two EVA virtual disks (and ESX data warehouses) on the EVA4000 Source called EXCHANGE01 and EXCHANGE02 that have been configured in separate groups, data replication (named EXCHANGE01-GROUP and EXCHANGE02 GROUP) of the HP Command View EVA. These have been picked up properly by SRM as replicated data stores.

    So I decided that it would be preferable to not not two data stores more as a single unit and therefore re-configured continued access by removing the virtual disk EXCHANGE02 of its data replication group and adding as a member of a GROUP named EXCHANGE01. After that, the GROUP named EXCHANGE01 is fail-over for Command View EVA unit and contains EXCHANGE01 to virtual disks and EXCHANGE02. The problem is that when I use the "Rescan replicated storage" option in SRM, you can still see the two Datastores EXCHANGE01 and EXCHANGE02. As it is, I need to create two groups, one by the data store, while in reality a continuous access switch the two as a single unit. The MRS server has been restarted, the berries reread several times, and in fact the EVA4000 has been restarted.

    Two things, I guess. Am I right in thinking that SRM should report to the Group of data replication HP (despite the fact that he refers to it as a\ group data store)? If I am, is there a way I can fix it (preference to short to remove all the replication groups in Command View EVA, a new analysis in the MRS and re - duplicate records?

    I have attached two screenshots - one to SRM showing the list of groups of data store after a new analysis and the other from Command View EVA, showing the Group of data recovery

    Hi Bob.

    The term SRM data store group is intentionally generic because MRS. support many different providers, and all could use a term "Replication group" as EVA does. If MRS. may correspond to a data store that was created on a LUN that the one being replicated is returned by the adapter, it considers that the store of data as being replicated. It's the storage provider for code adapter for return information LUN appropriate to their table - if you look at the SRM newspapers you will see EVA adapter returns each LUN replicated individually with no information about the relationship of Group of replication at all, so it would be impossible for SRM to have knowledge of this relationship as well.

    Although the LUN in a replication failover as one group power group, they can be taken individually for use during the test of SRM, so maybe it's one of the reasons why HP choice to list each ONE separately.

    In all cases, you have several alternatives: one is to keep your existing environment and configure two groups of protection; on the side of recovery, you can set up a restoration plan unique to switch both of these groups; In addition, you may have configured 2 other recovery plans, one for each protection group, which would be only used for the test, and which would test each LUN and virtual machines on it individually - this could reduce the load on the DR ESX servers during the test rather than to test simultaneously. Of course, you can create a single LUN as well and that of course would make the theoretical discussion - it could be better if your virtual machines must be tested together because the application dependencies.

    You might consider following up with HP if you want more insight as to the relationship of EVA "Replication groups" viz SRM, which is why they chose to not to expose information to the replication group.

  • vSphere 4: circuits Multi VLAN on a port (VGT) group.

    vSphere 4 allows a group of ports to be configured with multiple VLANs. Previously, a group of ports needed to be configured with 4095 who was an approach all or nothing. Under vSphere 4, I think that a port group can have multiple VLANs specified IE. 453,3454,112 etc.

    My question is; This is available on a vNetwork distributed switch or is available with a switch vNetwork Standard?

    It is only available with the distributed switch.

  • vSphere replication - grouping of NETWORK cards

    We have a large virtual machine (60 to VMDK) we need to replicate to a second host.  We are currently receiving about 100 MB/s and it seems we're reached the limit of 1 GB.  I want to increase the bandwidth available for this large replication work by aggregating traffic through several nic is it possible?  If so, how?

    I tried the following approach, thinking that these operations can be based on the same transfer mechanism, but it has not made a difference.

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & addresses...

    The KB points it is grouping of network cards that will help when you lost the active NIC then stand by will pass your tgraffic.

    Now coming to your scenario, you need to configure the user profile of the NIOC here you have to devote all the speed of the network to this replication job card. You cannot aggregate multiple Nic for reaching the combined capacity. We have a concept called LAG and LACP. but it will also give the speed that is independent to the different traffic

  • Several virtual machines attached to port VM group

    Hi all

    So I did research on the internet and on this forum and I have not found a good answer to my question. So I would check that I can create a unique Virtual Machine port group and attach multiple virtual machines and run them simultaneously. I basically want to have each VM attached to this switch, but instead to a separate port group, it seems that I can just attach to the same port group that puts on the vSwitch.

    Is there problems of L2 with MAC address or ARPing or something like that? I realize that I have to ensure that each VM has correctly configured the IP settings. I know there are problems, but I am wanting clarification of the people who have done this before. Are there problems of interface as with a real switch speed or who is not serious in a vSwitch?

    Thank you!

    -GNS

    You can attach multiple virtual machines to the same group of port without problems, this is how normally environment are created. Have a look here for more details: vSphere Standard switches

    The image below shows several virtual machines connected to the same port group:

  • Increase the number of ports on the port vDS group

    Hi all

    I know that I can increase or decrease the number of ports in a port group easily using the vSphere Standard switch. I can't find how to do this on my Nexus 1000v vDS however. Each group of port that I configured on the vDS has only 32 ports available and it becomes a problem.

    If anyone knows how to increase ports and/or where the documentation is for this, let me know. Thank you!!

  • Port group of VM moving with existing VM to vSwitch0 to a new vSwitch1 with the new port VM group

    Hello

    My vSphere 4 host has been configured from the settings default after having only a single vSwitch (vSwitch0) and eventually populated by 2 VMs now.

    I'm now changes to the configuration of the network of vCenter and adding a new vSwitch (vSwitch1) with a new group of computer Virtual Port.

    How can I safely move my 2 existing VMs to vSwitch0 to the new VM Port Group in vSwitch1?

    Thank you.

    Just go to the virtual machines 'change settings', click on your card and the network (by choosing the new label of network). This will move the virtual machine safely.

  • Replication groups two Equallogic

    Hello

    I have two groups equallogic each connected to a separate switch dell, storage and switches from dell that they communicate with each other at all.

    is it possible to configure replication between two of them on IP management? or what is the best practice in this case?

    Hello Dan,.

    No sorry.  Replication can go on the iSCSI network.  The sending group creates and session iSCSI on the site of DR to transfer the data.   You will need to create a route between groups in order to use the EQL replication.

    Kind regards

  • NX7K VDC: port of groups in the module Ethernet 48 ports 1 G / 10G F2?

    Have two or three questions about the allocation of ports on the Ethernet 1 module G / 10G F2 to VCC. Thanks for any help.

    (1) the most recent is F2 1 G / 10 G 48-port Ethernet module has groups of ports such as 10 G 32 ports older Ethernet module? If Yes, where can I get information on the mapping between the ports and port groups?

    (2) the module of 10 G of 32 has old ports of ports dedicated or shared because of its bandwidth of 80 G to the fabrid of switching mode. Is each port of the latest F2 10G module at the rate of 10G line or the same as the older 32 ports module? I want to make sure that the ports of 10G for link peer vPC are online.

    Thanks again

  • not displayed in the web client vSphere applianced replication

    Hello guys,.

    I have just deployed a new VRA (the only one and 1 in my vCenter) and everything looked ok.

    But when I am connected to my VRA list webclient is empty under replication vSphere.

    I had 2 devices, but each of them is saved in a different vCenter to maintain the 1:1 relationship.

    Now all are gone and not displayed, any idea?

    Thanks in advance.

  • vSphere device Replication Manager will not deploy

    Dear people of the future: this is what we have found so far: (http://xkcd.com/979/)

    Install us a vCenter Site Recovery Manager system and have a devil of a time on a vCenter deploy the model to the OVF for the VR device. Error message is "the OVF package uses features that are not supported. "Unsupported section ' {http://www.vmware.com/schema/ovf} vServiceDependencySection' (Extension of vCenter vService dependency)"

    A vCenter is protected and has successfully complete connection, mapping and created the placeholders with vCenter B (off site). When I go to step of the vSphere replication 1 to deploy the aircraft, the model of the FVO shows the correct location of my vCenter server and two servers RS for A and B are configured the same (physical SRM with SQL 2 k 8, vCenter virtual appliance).

    I can force it to use the model of the FVO directly from my SRM server, but then the vSphere replication process will not go past step 2 (reconfigure the VR device).

    In addition, I don't see a "VMware VirtualCenter Management Webservices" service on the vCenter server A or B so I don't think that is the question.

    Thoughts?

    Victor.

    He solved. When I went to run updates on the server vCenter Server, he said that it was waiting for a reboot because of previous updates. A bounced and everyone is happy! Thank you for helping me to talk about it through!

  • Unable to see index to display the site replication group

    You have tasks running in the background? You asked DBA_REPCATALOG to see if the request for creation of the index was pushed and executed?
