ESXi:6.5U1 kickstart reading failed with IPv6 address

$

I am trying to automate ESXi:6.5U1 installation using IPv6 Pxe. In "boot.cfg"  I gave the kickstart path using IPv6 address. During OS installation my setup is unable to fetch kickstart using this.,but if  I pass IPv4 address it is proceeding.

Can anyone please help in resolving this??


HP Proliant DL360 Gen9 + VMware ESXi, 6.5.0, 8294253 = Host hardware fan status error reading 0 RPM for empty fan bays

This issue does not show up on VMware ESXi, 6.5.0, 7967591 (U1). Once I upgraded to U2 the erroneous issue shows up.

 

iLO shows Fan 1 & 2 are NOT installed

host (and vcenter) shows them as installed with 0 RPM reading

HP support keeps pointing me to the URL (Using HPE Custom ESXi Images to Install ESXi on HPE ProLiant Servers | HPE ) which I reassured them I used to update 6.5 U1 to 6.5 U2. Reset logs/sensors doesnt work as well.

 

I checked HCL and the server build is most definitely on it but i guess thats just a grey area until its verified.

 

Oh happy days.

 

Anyone having the same issue?

vRA Workflow with XAAS to Payload

$

I have a vRA blueprint with a vSphere VM and an XAAS component.  It simply has two dropdown boxes (selections that are made in each box is an array).  I have a event broker subscription that runs (for this blueprint) for POST activation of the VM.   The vRO workflow for this subscription has a PAYLOAD input param.  I need to get the two selection box values in PAYLOAD as well.  How is this done?  I have the properties and values for the VM, but those dropdown bloxes are not listed anywhere.  Any help is appreciated.

Slow VMWare Workstation 14 Performance

Hi guys,

 

I'm trying to virtualize windows 7 ultimate 64 bit SP1 inside of windows 10 64 bit (whatever g-d forsaken latest edition there is given the automatic updates I can't easily forgo).

 

I'm finding there is a lot of screen redraw (particularly obvious in the context of flipping between excel tabs) and overall sluggishness despite no resources being obviously taxed (as visible on the host and guest via process explorer).

 

The host is pretty powerful - a modern i7 with 16 gb of ram on an SSD and I've allocated tons of hd space, 8 gigs of ram, 1 gig of memory for video (I only use this for office work, no games - I doubt this matters but I'm running some office 2003 apps in the VM; win 10 doesn't like office 2003 whereas native win 7 never had an issue with them).

 

I'm running workstation 14.0.

 

Perhaps it was better before a recent windows 10 update on the host though I'm not sure?

 

--> Is there some cause of screen redraw which wouldn't present itself as taxing system resources?

 

--> Am I just asking for too much in a VM for it to feel like a native machine?

 

--> and least importantly, I suppose, am I alone in hating windows 10?

 

Thanks guys,

Dave

Reconfigure VM via vRO failing with error Unknown field: provider-Cafe.Shim.VirtualMachine.Reconfigure.ExecutionSelector?

I am using vRA request resource with below sample properties.

 

vmProperties.put("provider-Cafe.Shim.VirtualMachine.Reconfigure.Requestor" , "service@domain.local");
vmProperties.put("provider-Cafe.Shim.VirtualMachine.Reconfigure.Storages" , "[]");
vmProperties.put("provider-Cafe.Shim.VirtualMachine.Reconfigure.Networks" , "[]");
vmProperties.put("provider-Cafe.Shim.VirtualMachine.Reconfigure.ExecutionSelector" , 1);
vmProperties.put("provider-Cafe.Shim.VirtualMachine.Reconfigure.CpuCount" , newCpuCount.toString());
vmProperties.put("provider-Cafe.Shim.VirtualMachine.Reconfigure.PropertyBag" , '[{"PropertyName": "VirtualMachine.Core.Count","PropertyValue": "2"}');

vmProperties.put("provider-Cafe.Shim.VirtualMachine.Reconfigure.MemorySize" , newMemorySizeMb.toString());

 

I am getting below error:

Can anyone suggest what can be the issue?

I'm testing macOS Mojave Beta 1, and while the Horizon Client connects fine, it's just a black screen (PCoIP OR Blast).

 

Anyone else successfully test this config?

 

Thanks!

Hello to all the community

 

I would like someone to help me and guide me to a problem i have.

 

First let me describe my problem.

I have a Laptop with Windows 7. Also i have setup a new virtual machine Windows 7.

My Laptop is connected to a LAN with the wired network card.

I want my virtual machine to use the wireless network of my laptop and have no connectivity with my main LAN.

 

Is it possible to do that? If yes please guide me step by step as much in details can be.

 

P.S. Sorry for my English

Unable to edit VM Disks size - ESXi 6.5

$

Hello all,

 

We have an ESXi host and I am unable to edit the disk size. There are no snapshots for that VM. SCSI Controller is used for the disks. I have also tried creating a snapshot and deleting all but o change. If I shutdown the machine , ofcourse I get the option but not sure why I do not get an option while machine is running. Only possible thing that I thought could prevent this from happening is snapshots but there are none.

 

I tried vmkfstools to increase the size but I get this error message

 

Failed to open virtual disk (<servername>_0.vmdk): Failed to lock the file (16392)

 

Any leads will be appreciated.

 

Thanks

How to identify VMServer from files on the SAN

$
0
0

Hi,

 

Normally, when you create a new VM server, in the SAN the folder name becomes the name you gave it.

However, someone created a new VM but forgot to change the name from "new vm server" in the wizard, so now we have a folder/files called "new vm server". 

But after they created, it looks like they renamed the VM, which doesn't change the folder/files name....

 

How can I identify which VM the files belong to?  Without going through every VM - edit settings, looking at HD file.

Would like to confirm below is all that is needed, basically just add ID on the settings?

     VLAN ID: None

VM Ntwrk

     VLAN ID: None

vMotion

     VLAN ID: 15

 

New Settings: vSwitch Port Group

esxi 6.5 vmnic with "no networks"

3x Fujitsu Primergy RX2510 M2

running ESXi 6.5 u1 (Fujitsu VMvisor-Installer-6.5-5969303-v411-1) with Intel I350 4port NICs

All drivers are as vmware/Fujitsu ISO standard.

 

HP ProCurve Switch 5406zl  with cluster uplinks connected to the same 24 port Gig-T ZL module.

vswitch.pngvmnics.png

all 4 uplinks on each port group are patched into the same switch, have the same switch port configs (untagged vlan xxx)

I have an intermittent issue with 4 vmnic4 showing "no networks". The vmnic in question is one port on a 4 port Intel I350 P4 card.

Once a vmnic shows this state, its stuck that way until I either down and up the vmnic, or reboot the host.

 

A week later a second host did exactly the same with a different port on the same make/model of 4-port card.

about 10 days later the 3rd host also did the same with a different port again.

 

If i vmotion the VM to another host its fine.

If i drop the problem vmnic out of the port group, the vms are fine on the remaining uplinks.

 

the problem NIC on each server is one port in a 4 port card, with all 3 other links functioning perfectly before and after.

 

I have been all over this including wiresharking the problem port from a VM.  The "no networks" uplink still shows some traffic from the LAN, however a lot of ARPs are going unanswered etc. so Im not convinced this is a flakey port.  However Ive also replaced the 4 port NIC in one server, only to have the issue reappear a week later.

 

esxcli network nic stats get -n VMNIC4 reveal the following:

 

Receive FIFO errors 57039176

Receive missed errors: 57039176

 

No other errors are shown.

 

Any pointers on this would be a huge help!

 

Cheers

Oracle RAC on VM extended Cluster

Hi

 

We have a running RAC cluster on a VM which is based on Raw Disk mapping and shared across data centers.   This is a stretched cluster across two data center.  Recently we had one site the SAN storage , VM and Network was down. The services fail over happend successfully but we saw that the ACFS diskgroup and ADVM went into a unknown state.

 

We tried to reboot the server but then realized that VM was unable to start the VM since it was looking for disks mapped from the Data center 1 SAN. All the disk were shown as Dead.

 

Please help to identify what could be the problem

 

Thanks & regards

VCSA 6.5 does not send alerts to e-mail

$

Hi,

I have the following problem. Currently, I installed a new Vcenter Server Appliance in version 6.5.0.14000. I can not cope with sending notifications via VCSA that does not work.

My external mail server for sending notifications works fine. Notifications from other devices affect my inbox.

I would also like to emphasize that our mail server (mail.companydomain.com) is open to the IP address and ports of the VCSA server.

Configuration in the VCSA GUI is in the instructions (Vcenter General-> Mail) in the fields are filled in as follows:

mail server - mail server address (mail.companydomain.com),

mail sender - (helpdesk@companydomain.com)

When using the VCSA console, the command:

echo "Subject: sendmail test" | sendmail -v my.email@companydomain.com

the mail is forwarded to my mailbox.

This is how my sendmail works in VCSA. Where to look for a problem?  It's need any additional settings?

 

best wishes,

vCenter Server 5.5 の環境から vCenter Server Appliance 6.5 環境への移行について

$
0
0

Windows(物理) 上にある vCenter Server バージョン 5.5 の環境から

vCenter Server Appliance 6.5 環境(ESXi)への移行を進めております。

 

移行の中で何点か不明な点がありますので、質問させて下さい。

 

1.ネットワークの前提条件として以下の様にあります

 >アプライアンスの一時的なネットワーク設定に固定 IP アドレスを割り当てる場合は、

 >IP アドレス用にDNS レコードの正引きおよび逆引きが設定されていることを確認します。

 

 移行元であるVCSの方のIPアドレスに対してはDNS登録設定していますが

 移行用の一時的な IPアドレスに対しても、VCSと同じDNSの設定をしておく必要がある

 との認識でよろしいでしょうか。

 

 

2.移行時のターゲットの vCenter Server Appliance の名前ですが、

  VCSと同じではいけないのでしょか。

  元々物理サーバーとして存在していましたので、仮想マシン名として

  被る事はなく可能であれば同じ名前で利用したいと考えております。

 

3.hostsファイルについて

  VCSからVCSAへの移行の際に、hosts情報は引き継がれるのでしょうか。

  立上げ後に設定が必要でしょうか。

 

 

知識不足で申し訳ありませんが、よろしくお願い致します。

Not able to add TPM to Win10 VM

I see that v14 now supports virtual TPM. But when I create and add test Win10 VM's, the "Finish" button to add TPM is greyed out. I've read somewhere that this is because my host doesn't support TPM... don't know if that's true.

 

My host is Lenovo P50 with TPM and Win10 Enterprise running on it. No matter what option I play with in the settings of the VM, I just can't seem to enable the virtual TPM.
Anyone succeeded in this? Thanks

Dear friends

Hi

i have appendix a pic that is utilization from one of my vms but i don't know what does means some parameters

 

1- vm consumed : is that means from 24G memory it is using 14.29G.  is that correct ?

2- vm overhead consumed : 182.0MB i don't know what does that means

3- Active Guest memory : 4.08G is that means this time vm is using just 4.8GB is that correct ?

4- Private : 12.09GB is that means 12.09GB provide from physical memory is that correct ?

5- shared : 11.47GB is that means this amount of memory is shared between other vms that are reside on this host because all of their OS is redhat

6-unaccessed : don't know what does means

 

from this pic can i understand amount of memory that has been assigned to this vm is adequate or no ?
