• where to check the availability of the esxi host?

  vsphere 4.1 customer, where can I go to check the availability of the esxi host without going to the terminal of the esxi host?

  Hello

  You can find uptaime or ALL your ESXi servers in the data center in this way

  Click on the vCener Server (left site)--> hosts tab in the window on the right and on the right site, you will see availability for all guests

• Find the ESXi hosts that aren't in clusters

  How can I find the ESXi hosts that are not in the groupings using powercli?

  As always, there are several ways to do so.

• Add the model mv directly from the ESXI host

  Hi gentlemen,

  I have a question:

  Is it possible to add a model from the ESXI host without using VCENTER?

  I browse to the data store and I select Add to the broom, but I get an error.

  Sort of to reach it without using VCENTER?

  The models are a unique feature of vcenter. You can try renaming the vm vmxt vmx file, this would allow to add the file as a virtual machine, not model.

  But anyway, you will not be able to use to deploy from model or the options you have for cela vcenter.

• Create new vCenter and move the ESXi hosts

  Hello

  I created a new vCenter vCenter apparatus using ISO 6.

  The deployment went well and I have all the installation program. I would now like to move hosts our old vCenter to new ESXi.

  I was reading this article to start the moving process.

  When I try to disconnect the host I get the message below

  

  In the article in the link above it is written that it will not affect the State of the virtual machine running on the host.

  If I click on 'Yes' here, it will automatically put the host in maintenance mode?

  I prefer not to do it if I can avoid it because I don't want to have to evacuate all virtual machines running on the esxi host.

  Wouldn't it be better if I disabled it HA first? Then try to move hosts? Or I'm sure to sign-out and the subsequent removal?

  Thank you

  See you soon

  Hello

  You must put your server in maintenance as a first step mode, then unplug and remove the server. It will work.

  If it doesn't work, disable temporary HA and remove your host of the VC.

• VM doesn't qutoboot upward after the restart of the ESXi host

  Hi all

  I environment, there is only a single Cluster. The Cluster has an ESXi host. all virtual machines including vCenter VM are resides on the ESXi host. When I reboot the host can all VM does not start?

  For comparison, there is a different environment, there are two Clusters (Cluster 1 and Cluster 2) in vCenter, Cluster 1 has two hosts ESXi Cluster 2 has only a single ESXi host. vCenter runs on the ESXi host residing in Cluster1.

  When I reboot the host residing in Cluster2, all virtual machines may start automatically.

  is that any expert can explain the difference? Why single environment can auto boot VMs when both of these environment has a host to the Cluster and cluster activate HA service?

  environments are executed at the ESX5.5.

  You will need to check the box allow VMS to start and stop automatically with the host system and then change the setting on the edit tab, and mention what needs to be done for each machine.

• Displaying output on the ESXi host?

  It may be a stupid question but just wanted to be sure. I have ESXi running a desktop PC with a cluster of virtual machines configured. The PC has a screen attached to VGA. This means that I see the ESXi etc host configuration screen.

  I can remote into the MV from my computer laptop etc, no problem, but I would like to be able to use the screen. So is it possible to show a virtual machine on this screen, rather than the ESXi host / console?

  The short answer is no, this is not possible.

• New to ESXi - how ftp the ESXi host files?

  I read several threads on the FTP configuration for other machines to connect to the ESXi server. But I need to FTP my files of our Lacie enthernet disk backup (created with the ghettoVCB.sh). The ethernet disk is shipped XP that allows FTP connections to it.

  Can someone tell me how to FTP to the ESXi machine?

  Thank you!

  Albert,

  I highly recommend using open Manger of dell to make your surveillance equipment it is crucial to be able to go back and look at problems like these coming out not where.

  Remember to follow instructions well and that you install the correct version - serves us in our environment and it has proved valuable.

  See you soon,.

• Help: The ESXi host has no persistent storage

  We have an ESXI 5.0 installed on our Dell server and we have some virtual machines running. suddenly, we had a mistake on Vsphere client.

  "EXSI host has no persistent storage.

  To run the virtual machine, create at least a data store for the maintenance of the machines virtual and other system files. »

  to resolve this problem, so we tried.

  On Vsphere client (connected to the ESXI)-> configuration-> storage-> rescan all... once the re-scanner has been done.

  We are able to see the file was mounted on the data store and it is lost in a minute. so it isn't permanently mounted to the data store to access the virtual machine.

  Once we do the re-scan once again, we saw that the file has been fitted to the data store and lost again.

  assemble and disassemble is to continue to switch.

  We need a solution to fix the problem, or in the worst case we need a way to recover the Esxi machine (VMS) data.

  Kindly share the reflections.

  It should be a disk error, it is local storage that tempt you and the virtual machine files are stored in the local disk

  don't forget to check the logs on the bit/ucs, regardless of the remote management tool, you use...

  Please check the log files and vobd.log vmkernel

• Attempt vSwitch configuration change and now the ESXi host and virtual machines offline

  So I have no doubt, I have myself to blame for this one. I was trying to change my vSwitch from 100 Mbps to 1000 Mbps when an 'operation timed' error out jumps-to the top and my vCenter Server lost connection with my ESXi host. I tried to restart the host manually, but that did not help. The host is not the ping requests and all the virtual machines on that host are offline; None of them vMotion off to my other ESX Server.

  I tried to reconnect the host computer in vCenter, but it is obviously does not connect because it can't ping it. I logged the ESXi console and all the network settings appear to be correct. I'm used to connect to the ESX console where you can execute commands, but it's my first ESXi host, so I don't know what I can do.

  Any help is greatly appreciated!

  -D.

  If you had your management port and VMs on different vSwitches / NIC leave on framework would eliminate a false positive. As in your case the management port reportedly follows the cable / about speed, but the virtual machine network would be intact (and I'm assuming that your storage space as well).  In this case the VMs system would have worked very well even if the management port did not work.

• Add the Active Directory group to the ESXi host permissions

  I am trying to add a group of ads as an administrator directly to an ESXi host (not in vCenter).  I tried to use the following code:

  $domain = "mydomain".

  $group = "mygroup".

  $svcaccount = $domain + "\" + $group

  $folder = get-file-name "ha-folder-root".

  $authMgr = get-View Manager

  $perm = new-Object VMware.Vim.Permission

  $perm.principal = $svcaccount

  $perm.propagate = $true

  $perm.group = $true

  $perm.roleid = ($authMgr.RoleList | where {$_.}) ({Name - eq "Admin"}). RoleId

  $authMgr.SetEntityPermissions (($folder |)) Get - View). MoRef, $perm)

  I get the following error:

  You can not call a method on a null value expression.

  $authMgr.SetEntityPermissions < < < < (($folder |)) Get - View). MoRef, $perm)

  When it is connected to ESX the Manager Id is "Manager-ha-authmgr" you may not use the shorter expression of Get-View:

  $authMgr = Get-View AuthorizationManager
  

  The safe way to get the Manager display is via ServiceInstance object:

  $si = Get-View ServiceInstance
  $authMgr = Get-View $si.Content.AuthorizationManager

• Impossible to withdraw, migrate, etc., VM on the ESXi host

  Earlier, the room of my loss of cooling infrastructure hosting servers suffered vSphere causing several ESXi hosts to closure without notice due to excessive heat.  Needless to say that the results were chaotic.  While I recovered/restored most of the systems, a problem seems to persist.  It is a virtual machine that is impossible to remove, move, etc. due to locks on files active.  The option in the .vmx to "Add to the inventory" file in the data store is also disabled.  However, this virtual machine is not displayed with a "vim - cmd vmsvc/getallvms" command.  In fact, investigating the locks on files, it doesn't appear with a ' vmkvsitools lsof | grep VM_Name command"and no result back with a ' ps | grep VM_Name command.  The host in question has also been restarted and updated (5.1 update 2, Update 3) so a simple reboot does not clear the locks.  So, the question is; How can I get rid of this virtual machine so I can properly re - add to vCenter?  Any help would be appreciated.

  Then just do a kill-9 20156 and you are all set - this kill everyone and goes out by the force of the virtual machine and your hair will be free

• The ESXi host upgrade, replicas linked clones

  I am trying to upgrade my 5.1 to 5.5 ESXi ESXi hosts.  I have some clone bound view pools and their replicas that has been created.  Given that these replicas are instant, they can be vmotioned.  What is the best method of upgrading a host ESXi replicas with snapshots on it? Just upgrade the host and let the lines where they are?

  Thanks in advance.

  From my experience every time you put the host in maintenance the replica mode is moved offshore to another host in the cluster.   You can then perform you upgrade with no problems.

• The ESXi host communication

  Hello.  I'm running a 2850 Dell Power Edge Server ESXi 3.5 and a data store with a virtual machine that is configured on the host computer.  I have a Windows 2003 server with lots of storage, and I try to add the storage using the network file system.  I found an article at http://vmblog.com/archive/2007/01/23/using-windows-based-nfs-in-vi3.aspx that does a good job explaining the steps to complete, however, I am trying to connect to the host server using the tool of WinSCP described in the article, and it does not connect.  I get "Network Error: Connection Refused.  Using WinSCP, I entered the IP address of the host machine, I entered the "root" administrator username and password.  I tried it on ports 22 and 88.  And I am trying SFTP and allowing relief of the SCP.  I do not think that our router is blocking any of these ports, but we think I'm missing a step somewhere or something is configured wrong somewhere.  I have the Windows Services for UNIX installed on Server 2003.  I need to connect to the host for the copy of the/etc/password and the/etc/group file over to Server 2003 to continue to try to add storage.  If anyone knows how I can get WinSCP to connect to the host, I would be very happy.  I read their FAQ and nothing works.  Please let me know if you need additional information.  Thanks, Jim
