• Virtual LAN with guests and the host only

  Hello

  I have a win server 2008 r2 host and a couple of virtual machines.

  I want to create a VLAN that contains the host and guest of the virtual machine. I intend to host the domain controller.

  I put the network connection from the guest to "host-only '.

  Then I tried ping between the guest and the host. Ping fails. "request time out" @host and "destination host unreachable'@guest.

  Firewall is turned off on both.

  What could be the problem? Is there another way to reach my goal?

  Kind regards

  Dembele.

  Did you stop the firewall service, or you have turned off the firewall? Stopping the service does not work.

  In any case, take a look at for example example 4 in the http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947709/en-us for how to configure ICMP (ping) settings.

• Windows sharing does not host and guests, but between physical and host computers and the guests.

  Hi, I have a bit of a

  a bizarre with windows shared folders network, I am about to format and rebuild the host, but I figure why not ask you chaps, cos I would lov to see why it does not work.

  So I have a 64-bit Windows XP workstation host 7 but I also uninstalled and tried vm player 3.

  My many comments from winxp ops, vista32 and even a win7 can do all of the windows network shares but cannot share with the host country, they see the host in the "mshome" workgroup and can even ping, but when I try to connect to share on the host I get "host is not reachable. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have permissions.  The specified network name is no longer available. »

  My laptop (win7) and two other physical computers desktop (Windows XP & vista home) can see the host and can use the shared windows resources.

  The host can see the guest in the working group operating systems and I can ping, but once again impossible to use actions.

  I connect to the host, all comments and physical workstations with the same user name and password

  All guests are running in bridge. All firewalls and virus progs are disabled.

  If quick recap

  • You can take and provide each other actions and physical work stations, but not the host

  • The host can take and give shares with physical computers, but not guests

  • Physical computers can give and take action with guests and the host.

  If anyone has an idea about it, I would lov to hear it.

  See you soon

  This sounds like a manifestation of this problem of networking:

• 5.5 ESXi update 2 | Hosts disconnect and reconnect to randomly

  We have 3 HP DL380 x G9 5.5 u2 running ESXi servers.

  They have been in production for about 6-8 months until now without any problem whatsoever, until recently.

  Recently, Vcentre guests will enter a 'disconnected' State and the alarm 'host and connectivity power '. After a few minutes, the host will reconnect and everything continues as usual. This disconnection causes no VMs sign out or restart. During the period where Vcentre shows as disconnected host, we can still SSH and ping on the ESX host without problem.

  I checked through the VPXD logs and found that, at the time of the failure, in this case:

  It doesn't seem to be a single host that is affected, it could be anything. It does not appear to occur at the same time during the day.

  I have checked for problems known and found some handshake SSL timeout KB articles, but do not believe that the same thing is happening here. I tried increasing the time-out period by that article anyway (KB 2064246) but that does not make a difference.

  All devices are connected to one HP5406ZL2 pass, with management on a vswitch with 2 x 10 GbE interfaces Active / active with route based on the origin of virtual Port ID set.

  The server running vCentre is also the MRS server and our server backup exec.

  Any information anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.

  This weekend a just disappeared from the servers disconnected completely and don't come not back online.

  To fix that we followed the info in this article:

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalID=2037798

  This has now been run on all hosts and disconnects the random disappeared. I will seek to apply the updates that are mentioned in this article as soon as POSSIBLE.

  Cordially for someone else who stumbles across this.

• Adding more than one host ESX and the upgrade at the same time.  What is the order of preference of the operations here?

  We are budgeting for more licenses and hardware for 2014 and want to do immediately in January.  I am trying to decide what is the best order of operations for adding two vmware hosts additional to our current installation of vsphere and also upgrade our vsphere / esx 4.1 u3 for the latest and best.

  We have 3 Dell PowerEdge R710 running ESX 4.1 U3.  In this vmware cluster, there is a vcenter server 4.1 U3 virtual machine handle this.  The three servers are about 90% memory used so we add 2 additional servers.  Probably the Dell PowerEdge r.620 since we get up 2 in the space of a 710.  Storage is on a san EMC NX4 NFS which will become too but not yet, let's just deal with the vmware part.

  When adding additional r.620 2, should I install ESX 4.1 on them and join them to the existing cluster and THEN pass vcenter and each one esx?  I ask precisely because 90% of use on 3 current servers, I need 2 other servers to support the update operations take place.  They would be able to repel vmotioned vm while each host receives an upgrade at the same time.

  So which is the best way to go about adding of the hosts and the upgrade?  Would I add as 4.1, then they would be available as targets vmotion and so I have room to start the hosts one upgrade at a time?

  If I update vcenter to the latest version, it is comparable backwards and can manage the 4.1 hosts, but also hosts 5.x?  I guess version 5.5 is the last one I would get from VMWare?  It is right of ESXi, then, how is this ESX ESXi 5.5 4.1 upgrade?  How much storage space do I need for ESXi 5.5, as I'm dechatoiement out of these r.620 Dell and need to know what hard drive to put in.

  The steps that you must follow

  -Updated vCenter Server

  -Upgrade of the ESX hosts (because we do a updating of the material we will install 5.5 on our new guests and add them to the cluster and then dismantle our existing)

  -Upgrade VMWare tools

  -Update data warehouses

  ESXi 5.5 has these storage requirements:

  • Installing ESXi 5.5 requires a boot device is at least 1 GB in size. When booting from a local disk or SAN/LUN iSCSI, a 5.2 GB drive is necessary to allow for the creation of the VMFS volume and a scratch 4 GB partition on the boot device. If a smaller drive or logical unit number is used, the installation program attempts to allocate a region scratching on a separate local disk. If a local drive is not found, the scratch partition (/ scratch) is located on the disk virtual ESXi host, linked to the/tmp/scratch. You can reconfigure /scratch to use another drive or logical unit number. For best performance and memory optimization, VMware recommends that you leave no /scratch on the ESXi host ramdisk.
  • To reconfigure / scratch, see Configure the Scratch Partition of vSphere Client vSphere Installation and Installation Guide.
  • Because of the sensitivity of the I/O devices, USB and SD, the installation program does not create a partition scratch on these devices. Therefore, there is no tangible benefits to the use of the great features of USB/SD that ESXi uses only the first 1 GB.

• Change the view hosts ESXi and Vcenter Ip addresses

  Hello

  Because of our new zoning, we need to change the IP addresses of all our guests view ESXi as well as our vCenter server View.  Is it still possible without altering the DB ADAM that uses the view?

  Thank you

  Mooge

  If your ESX hosts are added to vCenter by host name and your vCenter are added to the view by hostname that you should be able to make this change without affecting the view.

  If your vCenter is added by IP, then you will have problems.

  If your ESX hosts are added by the intellectual property so that you can use maintenance mode to migrate all the virtual machines on each host, remove from the inventory, then add it to the cluster using the new IP or host name. View should have no problem with what we don't reference the hosts by their host names in any sort of statically.

• vSphere hosts/guests 5 managed by vCenter 4?

  Quick question (I searched but not found the obvious answer, sorry...) and v5 hosts/guests can be managed by vCenter v4?  Or is it only that it's backward compatible (i.e. the vCenter v5 can handle low level guests/clients)?

  TIA!

  Hello.

  You will need vcenter Server 5 manage ESXi 5 and/or guests earlier.

  Good luck!

• Beginner question - download the version of the host and sort by host name and version

  Hello

  I'm trying to get the version of the host of my hosts in vCenter and then sort the output in a table by name and version, but I'm pretty new to powershell and I have zero programming background, so I can't understand it.

  What I got so far is the following;

  Get-vmhost | % {(Get-vue $_.ID).} Config.Product} | Tri-objet fullname | format-table FullName

  You get the version of the software to all of my guests and sorting in a list of the version of the software (fullname).  However because get-vmhost | % {(Get-vue $_.ID).} Config.Product} does not include the host name in its release, I can't find a way to include the hostname in my production.

  Can anyone help?

  Thank you

  You can do something like this

  get-vmhost | Get-View | select Name,@{N="Build";E={$_.Config.Product.FullName}} | `
  sort-object -Property Build | format-table
  

  On the Select-Object cmdlet, you can use literals hash that will allow you to run complex expressions.

  If you want the output sorted by host name, you can do

  get-vmhost | Get-View | select Name,@{N="Build";E={$_.Config.Product.FullName}} | `
  sort-object -Property Name | format-table
  

  Or like this (which is a bit faster)

  Get-View -ViewType HostSystem | select Name,@{N="Build";E={$_.Config.Product.FullName}} | `
  sort-object -Property Build | format-table

• Problem: ping is not knit VMware on another machine host physics and vice versa

  My host OS is windows XP SP3, and I stop the firewall.

  My VmWare OS is windows XP SP3, and I stop the firewall.

  The comments by using the bridge connection.

  I can't ping from the VmWare Machine to another physical PC / machine in the same network and vice versa.

  The ping works properly from the VmWare Machine to the host machine and vice versa.

  ========================

  On another system, the host operating system is windows XP SP2 and the VmWare OS is windows XP SP2.

  I also stop the firewall and comments using connection-bridge.

  On this system, the ping works in both directions.

  What is the problem?

  Welcome to the forums!

  Thanks for posting ' ipconfig/all' of the host AND the guest.

  Make sure that it is not a hardware based firewall and NVidea NIC have.

• iPod connection and synchronization problems classic160GB

  I have a well taken in charge iPod classic 160GB. Worked perfectly until...

  Since the upgrade to the latest OS (iMac), I've been prone to random error when updating of my music. Essentially (1) the device is still connected and there is no apparent way to perform a good ejection process (2) and synchronization fails after many hours and don't care only about 100 songs.

  Thus, it seems that the iPod is ok mechanically. I have reset the device and formatted the HARD drive. This allowed then the synchronization process works correctly. Yesterday I downloaded the songs on the iTunes store and wanted on the iPod - same problems error has occurred.

  Would it not make sense to go back to an earlier version of the operating system? and iTunes? (same iTunes appears unstable now...)

  I see that this timing issue is quite common with this unit holders and it seems to be common, because support was arrested for this camera - I'd be cynical? Why isn't Apple in the face of what it comes to very bad reputation management - total contempt for Affairs of its user base?

  I always use what is apparently a good piece of hardware, but I'm extremely frustrated as a user. Any body found the corrective action? If so, what is it?

  LAST: I left Apple and bought a Sony HD camera. Why? as a result of these frustrations. I'm now evaluate whether to consider other Apple devices that are close to replacement (viz, Ipad, MacBook Pro (17 "), iMAc) with non-Apple devices. This is how frustrated and I'm in a bad mood.

  Please, if you know a solution, I am very willing to try that.

  Problems with synchronization is often caused by a hard drive which becomes unreliable.  Hard drives are mechanical and ends by fail, computers and iPods.  I have much older iPods (4th gen, 3rd generation and iPod mini) that are more than 10 years at this point.  They still work perfectly fine with the latest version of OS X and iTunes.  I replaced the fragile hard drives in three of these iPods with Compact Flash card or an SD card on an adapter.  For the 5th generation and later iPods, you can look here for more information

  https://www.iFlash.xyz/

  I see that this synchronization problem is quite common with this unit-holders...

  It's not just 'common good' considering there are millions of iPods (with storage on hard disk) still serving there.  However, if you see more cases of these days, the reason is obvious.  They age, on average.  The iPod classic model was released back in 2007.  Old things tend to start fault for various reasons, including defective hard drive.

• Inline Timing and synchronization

  Hello!

  I created a device Inline Timing & Synchronization personalized using the custom template tool provided by NOR.

  After losing a day in tests, it seems that the deviceRef passed to the driver in RT is equal to 0. At first I thought that I made a mistake in my meter, so I created a new one with nothing (only model and a call to the string of Debug to view the reference of the device to the Console in the State of the initialization). I also get 0!

  After that I tried with a custom Inline device, the Inline custom device correctly returns the reference.

  I think that there is a problem with the Inline Timing and synchronization structure! Someone at - it a response?

  I really need to know if I can use such a model if I have to wait for the 2012 version!

• Adding host name and the name of tablespace in the alarm e-mail

  I'm trying to figure out how I can put the host name and the name of the table space in the e-mail alarms.

  Rule name: _DBO - use of Tablespace

  Scope of the rule: DBO_Cust_DBO_Cust_Tablespace_pct2 where nom_tablespace! like '% UNDO % '.

  Tried the following queries to run the query Condition and did not

  return scope.get("tablespace_name").get ("value")

  return scope.get("tablespace_name").get ("name")

  Do you have any suggestions on how to display the host name and the name of tablespace in the alarm email?

  

  Using scope: DBO_Tablespace

  hostname = scope.get('monitoredHost/name')

  tablespaceName = scope.get ('tablespace_name')

  Kind regards
