vSphere upgrade: VM tools/hw and VMFS

Hi all

Just have a quick question (I hope).  We went through the process of upgrading our servers of Mgmt (vcenter, update of crèche, SRM) 5.1.  We have also already updated all our ESX host to 5.1.  We are upgrading an environment of 4.1.

My question is if there is any order (favorite or otherwise) when the upgrade of the vm (Tools/hw) and VMFS?  All our warehouses are VMFS3.

I thought before that VMFS was the next step in the upgrade, but after reviewing the documentation below, looks like they're completely independent and no matter in what order they're done.   (I realize that when we realize the vmtools/hw upgrade, we improve vmtools first, then the hardware vm.)

Our plan for the upgrade of VMFS had to use storage vmotion and roll through all data warehouses by disabling out them, given in form from scratch and before proceeding to the next.

Thank you...

Just a little tip: ALWAYS update your first management servers (and not the reverse).

VMtools and VMFS are totally indepednent.  You can do them in any order, and they in fact are not necessary at all.

  • After upgrade VM - tool, bars and shared folders went!

    I upgraded to 4 VM on my Macbook Air, run the latest version of Lion.  The previous verson of VM was perfect.  I got it so all of my files user account are shared between Mac and Windows Installer.  Now, when I connect to Windows 7, my Radiance files and toolbars disappeared.  I get an error message network telling me that "Windows cannot access the folders of \\vmware-host\Shared."  The details of the error message telling me that the "network path is not available."  If I try to diagnose I it tells me I don't have permission to access to \\vmware-host\Shared records.  It's probably something simple, but I can't understand it.  Any help would be much appreciated.

    DPS is not supported in InDesign CC 2015. You will need to install InDesign 2014 CC-by-side to use DPS tools, that you have used. See download and install Adobe Creative cloud applications to learn how to install the previous version of InDesign.

    Digital Publishing Solution (aka DPS 2015) is supported in InDesign CC 2015.

  • Cannot upgrade VMWare Tools after upgrade to 10.6 and 2.0.6b1

    After the upgrade to 10.5.8 10.6.1 and Fusion 2.0.5 at 2.0.6b1, I have an exclamation point on my VMWare tools, saying they can be upgraded. What WMWare Tools opening and clicking on update of the tools, the window closes, but nothing happens. Even after a reboot. The WM is XP Pro. Any ideas?

    Hi Doc,

    It is possible that the iso is mounted, but not by force. After you have restarted the VM, click again on install VMware Tools in the Virtual Machine menu, then open my computer and watch your optical drive. It should say VMware Tools. Double-click it to start the installation of the VMware Tools.

    Let me know if this is useful,

  • Upgrade VMware Tools in the form of scheduled tasks

    Hi all

    I need to upgrade my VM to the latest version of VMware Tools (9.0.10 since 5.1.0 Update 2).

    As some of the virtual machine are used in a production environment, reset must be done during the night on weekends.

    I wanted to create a scheduled task for the automatic update of the VMware Tools, but unfortunately, this task is not available.

    I wonder if there is a way to create tasks scheduled using the Scheduler of vSphere.

    Thank you very much in advance for your help.

    Best regards, Werner

    Hi Werner,.

    PFB the process to install VMtool without restarting the machines.

    1. click on any virtual machine that needs the tools updated

    2. right click on the vm and hover over the comments and select Install/Upgrade VMware tools

    3. click on automatic tools upgrade and Advanced Options enter the command of follow-up

  • vSphere Upgrade Guide 5.1?

    Given that vSphere 5.1 has been officially released, is there a guide to upgrade?

    I'm looking not for anything extremely detailed... I have just a (standalone) 5.0 development ESXi host I want to upgrade to 5.1 and I do not know the steps I have to follow...

    All documents related to vSpher 5.1 can be found here

    I did the upgrade by using the ISO earlier in the day and it was pretty simple.

    Load ISO and reboot the host and follow the menus screen on.

  • Upgrade VMware Tools post 5 upgrade

    I have updated vCenter to 5 and have my first ESXi host also running 5. Most of the time, it was a pretty easy upgrade. Now, I have two other guests are still running 4.1 and all our virtual machines are run on these hosts. By doc upgrade, then next step is to upgrade VMware tools for each virtual computer. Almost all of our machines virtual under Windows 2 k 8 and 2 k 3.

    The problem I have is in vSphere Client 5, when I try to upgrade the tools, it throws an error that the tools are already up to date. I don't know what is the current version, but I show version 8.3.2 build 257589 installed. If I try to vMotion one of these virtual machines to the ESXi 5 host, he erred in declaring the virtual material is incorrect.


    The specific error is "the version of VMware Tools is already up to date" installed in the virtual machine

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    Josh

    The error has nothing to do with VMware tools. It is more a problem with the types of CPU of the ESXi host and cluster settings. What type/model of CPU you have in your hosts and have you enabled EVC on the cluster?

  • Upgrade to 5.5 and vShield

    We run deep with vShield Endpoint Security trend. We are preparing to move from 5.1 to 5.5 and my question is, we improve vShield 5.5 feeder before upgrading us vSphere or after? I remember a problem we had when we went from 4 to 5 and the vFile does not update and we couldn't turn on virtual machines on the hosts that have been upgraded. I think that we need to upgrade vShield before upgrading us hosts, but I would like a confirmation that I guess.

    The filesystem (vmhgfs module) driver is used only for the shared folder

    feature. The rest of the software provided by VMware Tools is designed to work

    regardless of this function.

    If you want the shared folders feature, you can install the driver of

    running vmware-config - tools.pl again after making sure that gcc, binutils, make

    and your kernel sources are installed on your computer.

    These packages are available on the installation of your distribution CD.

    [Press the Enter key to continue]

    As Barney42 pointed out, this question comes with the new kernel 3.13.0 - 46. And indeed helped me to find a workaround:

    Tools can be patched manually. In vmhgfs.tar, inode.c d_alias should be replaced by d_u.d_alias put it back to the tar and then recompile tools.

    Here is a script that does this (tested on ubuntu 32 bit 14.04, vmware workstation on a windows host 11.1):

    #!/bin/sh -x
    cd /usr/lib/vmware-tools/modules/source
    tar xf vmhgfs.tar
    grep -q d_u.d_alias vmhgfs-only/inode.c && echo "already patched" && exit 0
    sed -i -e s/d_alias/d_u.d_alias/ vmhgfs-only/inode.c
    cp -p vmhgfs.tar vmhgfs.tar.orig
    tar cf vmhgfs.tar vmhgfs-only
    vmware-config-tools.pl -d -m

    NOTE: This makes incompatible tools with older versions of the kernel, i.e. 3.13.0 - 45.

    (Original post at askubuntu)

    However, @VMware-team, please do run again out of the box, or submit a patch for the Linux kernel. You are a large business, should be no problem.

  • Network [vSphere 4.1] load balancing and failover vMotion

    GoodMorning everyone.

    I have some doubts about the configuration of the network for vMotion in vSphere 4.1

    I know that I can activate a single portgroup VMkernel for vMotion on the single host, but can I have this portgroup in a vSwitch with two or more physical NIC attached.

    Currently, I managed to have a vSwtich with vMotion and management of trade wth two NICs (see attachment).

    Both NICs works very well with the recovery for both exchanges.

    I would switch to a vSwitch with multiple network cards and I have some doubts.

    It seems that I could configure it... but the load balancer for vMotion supported on vSphere 4.1?

    And also, have the protgroup of vMotion in a switch with several network cards, is there a way to check what physical nic is currently used by vMotion?

    I am currently under a license from the company.

    Thank you all for your help.

    vMotion for vSphere pre 5 does not support Multi-NIC, in vSphere 5, you can configure several VMKernel enable vMotion and select different Nic Active and load balance between the two vmnic, but unfortunately not in vSphere 4.x

    For the management of ESXi, if you set active on both network adapters, you not to cross any active advantage / standby because it will only use on vmNIC, unless there is still a failure... but 1 vmNIC just because bandwidth is usually not a problem for the ESXi management only.

    So the answer: upgrade to vSphere 5 for multi-nic vMotion and don't worry ESXi management as an active NETWORK card is more than enough bandwidth,.

    Here's a YouTube on the Multi-NIC vMotion http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7njBRF2N0Z8 configuration

  • Snapshoting a virtual machine (Windows or Linux) before a upgrade VMware Tools as a precaution

    Our company has standardized on the use of VMware snapshoting than a level 1 to save uninstall mechanism possible to issues related to the updates / patches.  It works very well for Windows updates on our Windows guests, as well as the updates I YOU on our Linux guests.

    My question is if anyone thinks that there is a risk associated with the use of this process to guard against a possible problem that might occur after an upgrade VMware Tools.

    The process would be: Patch ESX host, migrate a guest to host newly patched, instant, prompt, install VMware Tools update, restart, test and certify, delete the snapshot.

    Since you're snapshoting a system that has an older version of VMware Tools, it's a bad idea to rely on this snapshot in a recovery scenario?  Use the VMware Tools as part of the process of snapshoting a guest?

    Thank you all for any advice you may have!

    Yes, you can snapshot before the upgrade tools and come back if something don't jive.  To take it even further, you can snapshot before the hardware upgrade of the v7 and return to v4 if it does not work.

    Seems like a lot of works well, but it does not offer a good backup method.

  • presentations of vSphere upgrade phase

    I watched the webcast "How to upgrade from VMware Infrastructure 3 VMware vSphere 4 ' the other day and it showed in the webcast, they had made videos of webcast for each of the 3 phases of the upgrade.  I had written in my notes that these videos were located at www.vmware/com/products/vsphere/upgrade-center, but when I went to this place I couldn't find the webcasts.  Can someone point me in the right direction?  I am planning on the part of the management of the update in the next week and wanted to see their webcast for this phase of the upgrade.
