Есть виртуальная машина (W2K8R2) сделана vmx-10 версия работает ESXI 5.5.0, в конфигурации машины на хосте указано 8 vcpu, после загрузки ОС, внутри машины в taskmanger  показывает 4процессора.

Но самое интересно в devaice managere показывает 8.

2.PNG

При монииторинге перфоманса ВМ не отдает "процессора " больше 50 %(при 4 vcpu) этот показатель соответсвует 100%, ясно видна полка на графике.

Уменьшить количество ЦПУ дает и до 4 видит корректно, если даешь больше , то 4 использует и все.

 

VMware tools переставлял.

 

Какие пути заствить ОС использовать vcpu больше 4.

Hello!

 

I USB 2.0-RS232 adapters, I need to use them with Win 98 but it doesn't work. I tried for hours ;-(

 

I have different computers, I have a serial port on one of my computers and it works perfectly, but on the other computers I need to use adapters and I can't make them work.

 

Do you have a suggestion? A driver?

 

Thanks for your help!

How to operate the associated NSX manager, given vCenter host/user/password?

$
0
0

I'm working on an NSX related project. I'd like to operate the NSX API, given a vCenter connection (vSphere API). How can I achieve that? I believe that is possible because I login vCenter web client by specifying vCenter host, user, password, I can see the NSX manager, and do operations (issued to NSX manager).

 

My question is how can I do that at API level? I'm assuming that involves creating vCenter connection using vSphere API (I'm familiar with this part), find the associated NSX manager (not sure how to do that in vSphere API), then login NSX API (I know how to do this using host/user/password, but don't know how to achieve it using a vCenter connection, sounds like some kind of SSO), and finally do NSX operations (I'm familiar with this part).

Appreciate your help on this. Thanks.

Hi guys,

I just installed VMware configuration Manager 5.8.2.

I can install VCM agent into Windows machine. But I can't install VCM agent into Linux machine.

I tried to manually copy the install package into Linux machine, then install it, it is OK, But I can't install it by Delegate Machine.

I checked the job it stopped "check request is complete‘.

 

Any suggestion? Thanks.

I'm going through the upgrade process but cannot find anywhere that allows me to upgrade the PSC to 6.5.  If I go through the normal upgrade process I can get through stage 1 but at the start of stage 2 it lets me know the psc hasn't been updated yet. Where am I not looking to find out how to update the psc?

 

stage2 error - psc is still 6.0 - 2016-11-16 15_19_46-vCenter Server Appliance Installer.png

"SSO admin service failure" exception in vSphere 6.0.2

Hi,

 

We are using vSphere 6.0 Update 2 (6.0.2). We are seeing the below exception consistently when we call _userSessionService.getUserSession(). This happens when we invoke the function the first time as well.


However, this issue is NOT seen in vSphere 6.0. Could you please suggest any pointers to fix this?

How to automate vSphere 6.5 patching with non-internet connected vCenter Server Appliance?

$
0
0

I cannot be the only person who does not want vCenter or ESXi hosts to have paths to the internet so I am befuddled that this was not anticipated and documented well for vSphere 6.5. I'm interested in suggestions for making this work elegantly and reliably. I had this working as follows in vSphere 6.0:

 

vCenter Server Appliance lives on private network 1 along with hosts.  This network has no direct routes to the internet.

vCenter Update Server running on Windows Server 2012 R2 lives on private network 1 and is also connected to a private network 2.  Private network 2 is shared only by the two Windows VM's.

vCenter Download server running on Windows Server 2012 R2 is connected to the internet and to private network 2.

The vCenter Download server would download patches via its internet connection and then export downloaded patches to an SMB share hosted on vCenter Update Server via private network 2.

 

This fairly straightforward and reliable architecture seems to have been annihilated as an option with vSphere 6.5.  Since Windows can no longer host updates for the vCenter appliance, there are seemingly two options.  The first is to download all the patches and import them manually from the vCenter appliance interface, which is a painfully ugly (moving endless zip files around?) and unautomatable approach. The other option presumably is to deploy the linux download service and export to a location where vCenter Server can access it via HTTPS.  The documentation for this is... not written by a native english speaker and provides exactly zero details on how the http server should be configured for vCenter to be happy with it.

 

Has anyone made this work yet?

Configuration about VROPS SNMP Outbound Plugin - VROPS 6.0

Hi,

This is in VROPS version 6.0.0

Please advise how to specifically send SNMP Traps to outside from VROPS data node always.

I was working for sending SNMP traps expecting receiving from one node, but observed there is inconsistency as  SNMP traps being sent from data node and sometime master node.

How to enforce always the SNMP traffic is being sent from Data Node all the time.

Kindly reply as soon as possible.

 

Thanks and Best Regards,

Port mirroring issues

Support for Microsoft Wireless HDMI dongle

$

If I am booted into Windows 10 (BootCamp) I am able to hit {Windows/Apple}-P for the Project dialog and connect to an external wireless display device (in this case a Microsoft Wireless HDMI adapter) and all works as expected.

 

Back in OSX and running the same BootCamp image within Fusion (8.5) I can bring up the Project dialog, but there is no option there to connect to a wireless device I have the same issue in a non-BootCamp Win10 VM.

 

Is there a workaround to get it working, or anything that VMWare might be able to do to enable support in a subsequent update? With the new Macbook Pro missing a native HDMI cable this has suddenly become a little more urgent for me!

Is a 2016 MacBook Pro worth the $ for performance improvements?

$

I currently run Fusion 8.5 with both a BootCamp Win10 partition and a Fusion-only VM (the Fusion only one is a domain joined image, Bootcamp is standalone).

 

My hardware is a maxed out mid-2012 Macbook Air (i7 2Ghz, dual core, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD, Intel HD 4000 graphics with 1.5GB RAM) so not exactly a powerhouse, but does surprisingly well (apart from the fan noise!)

 

Thinking about upgrading to a new MacBook Pro (yes, I know all the problems, which is why I'm really hesitant right now) but assuming I get a maxed out 13" (portability is really important for me, so unless the 15" is only a touch bigger than the Air, I'm stuck with the smaller) am I going to get much benefit ... but I'm wondering if anyone in the community or at VMWare has done some objective tests - just how much quicker is the new harder with a VM (of course with 16GB RAM in the new machine you're at an immediate advantage as you can allocate more to Fusion etc)

Vsphere Client (locally installed) Use Windows session credentials doen

$

I have recently added my local vSphere host (standalone, no vCenter involved) to a domain. I have given permissions to some users, which are now able to logon with the vSphere client by manually inserting their logon credentials ([domain]\[username]). This works fine. However, the vSphere client has this fancy "Use Windows session credentials", which would be ideal to use a sort of Single-Sign-On. But when I check this box, the user gets filled in. When I log in, it fails. I get different messages, one time it said "No such host found", while after a few other tries it said "Windows session credentials cannot be used to log into this server". Does anyone recognize this problem or see what I did wrong?

What should I do if I lose the Network Connection between the two Sites?

$
0

I have a customer who asked me what happens when his MPLS goes down. I told him that he would have the most recent replication that has happened is what he would have to work with. since he will be running an active passive model to a hosted data center he just needs to make sure that the replication of the Protected VM's is happening at a manageable RPO for the business.

I guess the real question I have is around the DNS. he said the public DNS is also on the MPLS or WAN. So what would he need to do to protect that in the event of a fail over?

VMFS formatting taking forever

$
0
0

A recent issue I've started noticing with current generation SSD drives mounted for local storage is that they take forever to format with VMFS. I've encountered the issue with small systems like Intel NUCs with an internal 1Tb Sandisk Micron SSD where it took over 24 hours to format with the built in SATA controller.

 

And now I have an instance of a 1.9Tb Samsung PM863 in a DELL R730XD with the embedded H730 controller mounted as non RAID that has been formatting for almost a week. There is still disk IO happening so it appears to be doing a low level format.

 

The side effect of this is that the management agents become non responsive during the formatting operation so the server is no longer properly participating in the cluster.

 

Anyone else seen this? Or have an idea how to get ESXi to do a quick format ?

 

Secondary question : best way to stop the formatting operation politely?

Using Vsphere scheduled tasks to backup vms

$
0
0

Hi All,

 

I am trying to use the Vsphere scheduled clones to backup vms. The problem is that after 1 successful run, the clone fails because the target machine already exists.

 

So first of all, did I miss something and there is a way to tell the scheduler to number or date-postifx the target vms, or something like that?

 

Secondly, assuming the above is not possible, I need some help with the workaround that I am trying to implement, which is simply to use a script on the NFS server that I clone the machines on, to copy or move he vm's directory and then tell the Esxi host to delete the machine, by executing the vim-cmd destroy command via ssh. The problem is , that when I do that, the vm is not removed in the Vcenter , but appears as orphaned. I guess this is because I run the destroy command directly to the vmhost and not via the vcenter, but I can't find my arms and legs in the vcenter cli.

 

So if someone could be so kind and share some reasonable way to solve this problem, I'd appreciate it. I'm sure I am not the only one who encountered it, I mean, you all do backups, right?

 

Many thanks in advance,

 

Oren
