• Store data customized for vSphere web client plugin

  Hello

  I'm working on vSphere Web Client plugin development. We need to store custom data on vCenter server that can be configured by the user only once.

  Plugin service will read the data and use it to connect to our server.

  Currently, we create an XML with encrypted data and store it in the folder/usr/local on vCenter.
  What are the best practices for storing these data?

  Thank you
  Vincent

  Small data files can be stored on the same device running the Web Client (VCSA for Linux) or vCenter for Windows

  In order to make your code compatible with the next vSphere 6.0 5.5 plugin you must use the following directories that will retain the write access:

  -/ Import/Storage on Linux

  -System.getenv ("PROGRAMDATA") under Windows.

  Create a subdirectory of the plugin and write your files.  See the code in the samples/global services/Global Services-service/src/main/java/com/vmware/samples/global services/GlobalServiceImpl.java

• Is there a vSphere Web Client Plugin UI Guidance Document?

  Hello

  I was looking for a document of instructions for user interface to the vSphere Client Web Plugin.  I found one for the Client vSphere here:

  http://www.VMware.com/support/developer/VC-SDK/vcplugin/vSphereClient_plugin_ui_guidelines.PDF

  Specifically, I write a plugin that will allow the user to change the settings in a new sub tab on the tab manage for a specified host system.  So, I would follow the same look and feel of other tabs under Deputy manage the tab for a host system.  In other words, I would like my list of parameters have the same title bar to research and the light blue column for the names of the Panel settings "Configuration at the time of the" as shown below, for example.

  

  So, if there is a way to access a global CSS file, that would be great.  Or (more realistic), if there was a directive from the user interface where I could get information on police and the color information to these panels, which would be very useful.  Or if there is another way that I didn't think to get that kind of information, I would be very grateful.

  Thanks for any help you can give me,

• Web Client Plugin not completely installed

  Hello

  I tried to understand this, but I've not seen anything that solves this problem. When I sign NSX Manager 6.2 Build 2986609 with vCenter 5.5 updated 2nd, the connection is successful and I can see the extension listed in the CROWD and the web client extensions Manager but the tab networking and security in the Web Client does not appear. I restarted vCenter both NSX Manager, connectivity tested between each configured NTP, DNS configured, tried both a domain service account, and the [email protected] (and logged as a user registered once) but nothing is visible.

  C:\ProgramData\VMware\vSphere Web Client\vc-packages\vsphere-customer-serenity is not a directory, vshield

  

  So I thought the real problem. This is the time zone setting. Zone MUST match that vCenter uses. I always left appliances linux (like NSX and same ESXi) to UTC, but all of my windows as vCenter server are on the Eastern time zone. That was my problem, even though the weather was synchronized the time zone must be defined correctly.

• not able to save or deploy the web client setup 5.5 plugin

  Hello

  I am not able to save or deploy a web client plugin on 5.5 setup. Most confusing to me is this folder 'vsphere-client-serenity. I don't see any of this directory in the path of the directory of vmware. It's the path C:\Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\vSphereWebClient.

  This is the context of the extension.xml file:

  < extension >

  < description >

  < label > AB < / label >

  < Summary > AB vSphere plugin < / summary >

  < / description >

  < key > XYZ.ab com < / key >

  < company > XYZ < / company >

  < version > 1.0.0 < / version >

  < customer >

  < version > 1.0.0 < / version >

  < description >

  plugin < label > AB < / label >

  < Summary > AB Vsphere plugin < / summary >

  < / description >

  < company > XYZ < / company >

  vsphere-client-serenity < type > < / type >

  < url > http://localhost: 8080 / AB.zip < / url >

  < / customer >

  < lastHeartbeatTime > 2012-07-21T 00: 25:52.814418Z < / lastHeartbeatTime >

  < / extension >

  What is this tag "type"? According to the documentation of the plugin deployment must have the value "vsphere-client-serenity. When I try to save this file extension using vsphere client to office (5.1) it registered successfully but in the State it is written "no download on the client side is necessary for this plug-in." All mentioned URL works properly.

  I'm just a beginner in the present. I apologise for any basic mistakes/misunderstanding.

  Thank you.

  now, everything seems to work. I had to modify the webclient.properties file in C:/programdata/vmware /...

  Earlier I had recorded the plugin using 5.1 vsphere webclient. Now, I'm going to try writing a utility.

  Thank you.

• The vSphere Client Plugin Web WebService call

  Hello

  I have found no examples of vSphere call Web Service from Web Client Plugin. How can it be done? I have to create some adapter data/property provider and call webservice that somehow?

  See the samples/vsphereviews/vsphere-wssdk-provider, it shows how to use vSphere SDK WebService.

  See doc html at docs/samples-doc/vsphereviews.html#vsphere-ui.

• vSphere Web Client error - an internal error occurred - error #1009.

  I'm running a questions accessing the page plug-ins of the client in the Web Client vSphere. The error is in the subject line and an extract from the journal of the vsphere_client_virgo is below. Here is the scenario in which I believe is the origin of the problem, I don't know how to fix it.

  I had a third-party web client-plugin registered (Manager Cisco Nexus 1000v). and I disabled it. I then went through the steps to cancel the webclient plugin which was to remove the extension from the extensions through the CROWD handler. I deleted the extension to go from the CROWD and remove the files from the client web plugin on the server vCenter successfully, but now I get the above error. I think I'm getting this because the web client tries to find a reference to the disabled extension, either vCenter Server binaries or the extension, I removed from the CROWD. Whatever it is, I have no idea how to move forward. All ideas are welcome!

  I ended up doing a reinstall of the vCenter. Once I uninstalled it, I also had to remove everything from \ProgramData\VMware.

• vSAN health Plugin breaks Web Client

  I installed the Plugin health vSAN, and when I went to the web client to complete the host install; I was able to navigate the environment, but the middle part is... empty.  I uninstalled the plugin and web client works normally.  Has anyone else seen elsewhere?  I intend to open tomorrow a SR.  Thank you, Zach.

  I don't know if these help or not, but maybe you can check whether they make a difference.

  1. ensure that the user who installs the plugin from control of health has privileges to vCenter

  2. ensure that the installation is "run as Administrator". You may need to open a cmd with "run as Administrator" command prompt, then run the msi file.

• Installation of the Interactive Web Client - Reporting Hyperion

  Hello

• What "vsphere client lib" or "data-services - 1.0.0" jar file to use in client plugin vsphere-web

  My client plugin project vsphere web contains the two files jar "vsphere-client-lib" or "data-services - 1.0.0. These two jars has many common classes with identical or different method signatures. I used the DataException class in my code that uses the signature of the method of the vsphere client file - lib.jar.

  When I build the project, then sometimes data-services - 1.0.0 jar file gets loaded first and so, build becomes due to a lack of signature of the method.

  I need to know why there are so many classes common to these two pots?

  Can we use only single (also available in the sdk directory) jar of vsphere-client-lib pot instead of data-services - 1.0.0 jar in plugin?

  We can achieve all features using vsphere-client-lib pot instead of data-services jar file - 1.0.0.

  Simply compile your Java with client/vsphere-Java code - lib.jar.  I don't know why you use data-service - 1.0.0 (and where you found it). It is not part of the SDK and is not the doc or samples.

• VWC plugin using sdk 5.1 is broken if running on the web client 6.0 with port 9443 - out could not connect to the Web Client vSphere. Contact your administrator to resolve this problem.

  We did a vwc with sdk 5.1 plugin, now, we want to make it work on the web client 6.0. before the race, we have changed the MANIFESTO. MF and services-config. XML responses such as the following:

  2 important reminders for your plugin 5.5 is compatible with the Web Client 6.0

  After that, we deployed our plugin on web client 6.0

  If access us using the URL with port: https:// < ipaddress >: client/vsphere-9443 /? csp, our plugin arises, our plugin function is also ok.

  If access us using the URL without port: https://< ipaddress > / vsphere client /? csp, our plugin is present, the function is broken (error occurred when flex user interface by calling the java service: "Could not connect to vSphere Web Client.) Contact your administrator to resolve this problem. »).

  Thank you very much

  Please change the CHANNEL_URL in your proxy classes to use 'amf' instead of 'amfsecure '.

  private static const CHANNEL_URI:String = "/" + YOUR_MODULE.contextPath + "/messagebroker/amf"
  

  This should solve your problem.

• "VerifyError: Error #1053: illegal override of CustomProxy...". ', for the plugin in Web Client 6.0

  I'm having a problem with a plugin developed for 5.1. Works very well with the two web client 5.1 and 5.5.

  I'm trying to deploy the same plug-in in the web client 6.0 and follows with the reference of this binding changes for compatibility:

  2 important reminders for your plugin 5.5 is compatible with the Web Client 6.0

  -Change Web-ContextPath, vsphere client /-name of the plugin in the MANIFEST. MF

  -Configured by default two channels, one amf and secure-amf services - config.xml and remote - config.xml.:

  After these changes, I was able to resolve the "cannot load resources... '. "errors. And I am able to see my plugin icon.

  
  

  I made changes to my own proxy class (CustomProxy) to use ServiceUtil.getDefaultChannelUri (). I added the ServiceUtil code to my plugin rather the upgrade of an SDK 5.1 to SDK 5.5.2.

  Now get an error message when you click the icon of the plugin:

  "VerifyError: Error #1053: illegal override of CustomProxy...". ». Please find the screenshot of the flash error attached drive.

  Could someone guide possible cause and resolution of the issue?

  
  

  Thank you.

  Now I realize the you will not be able to compile it:

  public void callService(methodName:String,_arguments:Array,_callback:Function_=_null,_callContext:Object_=_null,_ _opId:String_=_null_):void {}

  It turns out that BaseProxy backward compatibility is broken If we substitute the callService method . We'll resolve this in the next version of hotfix or update.

  I can you advice how to solve this problem for your plugin. And it will work with 6.0. But after that we released the patch, your code will break. The only thing you can do at this stage is to remove from your CustombaseProxy.

  So I recommend the following:

  1 extract the logic that you have about the utility class, for example ProxyArgumentsUtil

  I don't understand why keep you the reference to m_reqMetaData and not to create a new instance for each request.

  If you do this, you can have a simple util class with a single static method in it. If you need this reference, then your utility class should be instantiated.

  2. all the classes that extend CustomBaseProxy should extend directly the BaseProxy

  3. whenever you call callService, use this ProxyArgumentsUtil to manage your "arguments" parameter

  4. remove the CustomBaseProxy

  Apologize for the inconvenience.

• Installation of VMware web client 6.0

  Where the installation?

  I downloaded the Vmware Vcenter VIM 6.0 installation DVD and do not see the installation on the drive?

  I do not see Installing desktop client VSphere but no "web client".

  Should I upgrade VCenter Server 6.0 and download the web client of him?

  VCenter server 6.0 to backward compatible is?  Manage a 5.1 ESXi host with VCenter server 6?

  Or should I upgrade ESXi to 6.0 before the VCenter Server?

  Thank you

  Yes, the vCenter is backward compatible. vCenter 6.0 supports the same 5.0 esxi

  You can check it out here: http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/sim/interop_matrix.php

  the webclient service is installed with the vcenter. its not over a single installation.

  first of all, you must update the vcenter. then you can update the esxi server.

• VRO v6.01 installation but not displayed in the web client

  I'm having trouble with a clean install, not appearing is not in the Web Client, and I hope someone here can help you.

  I built my house with vSphere Lab 6 now it's GA, and after sunrise vCenter and run, I thought I'd have a look at the latest and Orchestrator (v6.0.1). I have deployed the OVF very well (I used the GUI client such as web client and their tools of 'integration' are all except) and entered the web configuration portal. I finished the tab "vSphere infrastructure" (SSL, authentication SSO, licensing, registration vCenter) who has successfully completed (according to the display messages).

  However, when I go into the tab Orchestrator WebClient service where no server is listed and no workflow is available. I checked the plugin vCenter client is enabled (under Administration > Solutions > Client Plug-ins) and I also tried to register through the client GUI Orchestrator and 'Add a vCenter Server' and 'Save a vCenter Server' workflows running both successfully completed. Still no luck.

  Any ideas how I can get registered with vCenter Orchestrator (I use the VCSA) or if I start troubleshooting? Good to check logs files?

  Thank you

  Ed.

  OK, if you see that the "get started page", this means the plugin vRO has not been downloaded and deployed in vSphere Web Client.

  In 6.x, the binary plug-in are hosted on server vRO and vSphere Client Web downloads and deploys it. How the plugin site is discovered is the URL extension of the VC.

  The first thing to check if if the URL is valid and the plug-in can be downloaded from it. Open the managed object browser, and then clicks ExtensionManager -> "com.vmware.vco" extension-> client -> url. Its value must be something like https://vcoip:8281/vco/vsphere-web-client/vco-plugin.zip. Open this URL in a browser and verify that the downloaded ZIP file.

  If the ZIP file can be downloaded without problem, check the file of newspaper Web Client vSphere (vsphere_client_virgo.log) traces associated with failed to download plugin (you can find the name of the vco-pluginfile).

  If there is nothing associated with vco-plugin in the papers then maybe vSphere Web Client not attempted to download it. I think he's looking for plug-ins at startup, then you can try to restart the Web Client vSphere (in the device, it is named vsphere client , so you can restart it with the command "restart service - vsphere client").

  In addition, you can try to connect to Web Client vSphere with the admin user, then go to Administration -> plugins customerand click on the search of new plug-ins link.
