vSGA poor performance or misconfigured

$

0

Hi

 

On a Dell VRTX with a AMD W7000 GPU installed, we use a Dell M630 server for vSphere 6.0 u2 and Horizon View 7.0.1.

 

We created two pools.

Pool A:

  • with 3D Renderer: Hardware.

 

Pool B:

  • with 3D Renderer: disabled

 

We used HTML5 fish bowl to test both pools.


Desktops on pool B have better fps that desktops on pool A.

 

Both pools shows VMware SVGA 3D as display adapters:

GPU seems installed correctly

"vSGA" and "SVGA 3D" use VMware tools drivers. Must I expect to see vSGA on "Windows Device Manager"?

 

We want to use a shared vSGA configuration. No vDGA are needed.

 

Best regards,

Hi

 

I run vSphere 6 on a Dell R940. There are no hardware alerts but I constantly get errors messages about connexion loss with the datastore besause of connectivity issues. It last 1 or 2 minutes then access is restored. This happens hundred of times a day and during the connexion loss all my VMs are stucked. I alredy tried to reboot the machine. I checked this Dell Idrack and I can't see any hardware issue.

 

What should I do ?

ThinApp - Paint.NET problem.

Hello,

 

We have tried packaging Paint.NET but it did not work. We used a clean virtual machine while doing that but the resulting .exe file does not even work on the virtual machine although Paint.NET works on it.

 

.NET is packaged together with Paint.NET. The error is:

 

"Missing Import C:\Prpgram Files\paint.net\SxS\X86\ucrtbase.dll -> kernelbase.dll:CreateProcessA"

 

We have also tried copying .dll files in different directories but it is still not working.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Note: Same problem with TortoiseSVN.

Hoping someone can help, I've recently installed a vRealise for Horizon v6.2.1 instance.

 

I've managed to get this setup and most of the dashboards are displaying data however the important dashboard for me named "Horizon User Sessions" is not displaying any data, can some one shed some light as to why this would happen or what I should be looking at to get this working?

 

Cheers

Export/import Baseline from update manager 5.x to 6.1

$

Hi ,

 

We are trying to export/import VUM 5.1 baselines to VUM 6.0. We tried using the scripts provided in VMware blog but we are not able to get the result.

 

Scripts https://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-11973

Script https://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-51/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.vmware.vsphere.update_manager.doc%2FGUID-FB9C8381-9D6C-4451-8CCF-99A14B552D59.html

 

Our existing environment has 3 VUM on 5.1 and about 50+ baselines. New environment is on 6.1.

 

When we try to run the script as per the above links ,we pass through till line 3 and then we get error as ExportImpotBaselines.ps1 is not a cmdlet. If we remove line 4 then we get Param is not a proper cmdlet.

 

Script -----------------------------------------------------------------------

$destinationServer = Connect-VIServer <ip_address_of_the_destination_server>

$sourceServer = Connect-VIServer <ip_address_of_the_source_server>

$baselines = Get-PatchBaseline MyBaseline -Server $sourceServer

ExportImportBaselines.ps1 $baselines $destinationServer

Param([VMware.VumAutomation.Types.Baseline[]] $baselines, [VMware.VimAutomation.Types.VIServer[]]$destinationServers)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

We are using VMware Power CLI 6.3 which is having vSphere Update Manager PowerCLI integrated.

 

Are we missing some thing?  The above links is written for versions 5.1 we tried for exporting from 5.1 to 6.1 but failed.

 

Can some one help us ? Has any one used the above scripts for other VUM versions?

 

Regards,

mominn

 

 

Get full folder path for Templates

Hello

 

I am trying to solve a issue that we have in our environment.

We have massive template sprawl and  I am trying to get the full path to every template that we have.  There is a very nice function that does this for VM's but nothing is out there for templates and modifying it  to accept get-view doesn't work.

 

I was wondering if any one else has run into this and has a nice way to get the information out with powercli.

 

Thanks

I have done the upgrade to 7.1 on a few nodes and after the upgrade has completed none of the System.log or Server.log calls are not writing anything to the screen.  Anyone got any idea what could be missing to get the logging back?

User with multiple entitlements always connecting to one pool

$

I have a generic user for one of our classrooms that has entitlements for 2 different pools.  Whenever this user logs in on either a PCoIP zero client or the Horizon client, the user does not get a choice and is immediately shunted into one pool, and always the same pool.  I verified there are no disconnected sessions for this user in that pool, and on the Horizon client, in the pool space, I do see that both pools are there, but it always goes directly into this single pool.  I also have seen this behavior with regular users, too, where they have access to multiple pools, but on login, always get shunted to  single pool they have an entitlement in..  Any ideas on how to stop this behavior?

Hola.

 

Tengo un servidor con disco duro SATA y 4 discos duros configurados en RAID 0 en los que quería instalar ESXi. Me he descargado y grabado la imágen de ESXi 6.0 en un CD he iniciado el equipo con él, al proceder con la instalación, el sitema de archivos RAID no es detectado, en la pantalla de SELECT A DISK TO INSTALL OR UPGRADE sólo me aparece el ATA. 

 

Por si sirve de algo, sobre el RAID al iniciar el equipo: Intel Embedded Server RAID Technology II M1064e.05.09121449I


No sé si es que debo configurar algo en la utilidad del RAID o por algún otro tipo de problema...

Is Studio still supported? Was it replaced by something else?

$

These discussions have very little activity. Was Studio replaced by another product? If so what?

 

We use studiocli --createbuild with an xml file to build a Centos 5.6 VM. We want to move to Centos/Redhat 7 but that has been proving to be challenging? Has anyone successfully used studiocli to build a Centos/Redhat 7 VM? If so, could you please post your method. I expect that people are using something else for Centos/Redhat 7. If so, what are you using?

 

Thank you.

VMware Horizon 7.0.1 With Eindows Ent 1607 Build 14393. Camera not working

$

Hi,

  We are running a trial for VMware Horizon 7 with the latest build of Windows 10 Ent 1607. We could not get the camera to work at all. Even with USB redirection turned on, the camera itself shows up and the drivers are installed, but the Video is Blank (Black). If we use the default VMware Video, we get a grey screen.

 

After trying for hours to figure out the issue, we ran another test with the 1511 build and the camera works fine using the VMware Audio video feature without the need for USB redirection.

 

Any one faced this issue?

Hi

 

I run a free vSphere 6. Installation was done by the end of 2015. Thus I do think there are some updates to install.

 

How can I determine the exact verion I run ? Where can I download patches and how should I install them ?

 

I tried to google for hours but didn't find clear instructions :-(

 

Thx


Is there a way to see what's enabled on agent 6.2.1?

$
0
0

We need USB re-direction enable on all of our templates, however some templates USB re-direction is working, and some it's not so it's most likely when the agent was upgraded we simple forgot to enable the USB re-direction. I can't figure out a way to drill into 6.2.1 and see what modifications you have set up, it's not like the older agents where you could simply change it from the control panel.

MS SQL agent does not register with VDP

$

Does anyone know how to re-register a SQL agent with the target VDP appliance?

I installed the Microsoft SQL Server agent on a server. During install, I type in the FQDN (not the ip address) of the target VDP appliance. When I try to create the backup job on VDP, this happens. I start the wizard, pick Applications > Full Server. From a list of backup sources I pick Microsoft SQL Server...Loading spinner and error message, "There are no registered Microsoft SQL Server available. The group has been removed." The remove refers to that item no longer visible in the backup source list if I retry the wizard.

   I can putty/ssh to the VDP appliance and run this cli command >mccli client show --recursive=true. The server I want is not in the list. So far, I am doing another install at the MS server to see if I can catch a DNS problem, a firewall problem an operator error problem or banging oin it repeatedly until it magically works. I even executed the agent msi installer from an elevated cmd prompt. But alas, no joy.

   I will put this out here for a bit then signal VM support for help.

Windows 2008 R2 64 bit, 32GB RAM

VDP SQL agent version 7.1.181.107 (that came with the following)

VDP 6.0 appliance, Version 6.0.1.5

Hi Guys,

 

I am very very new to Capacity Planning and vROps.

 

I'm starting to see vROps is huge! massive! but I think what I need is something very simple I hope...

 

I need to be able to show either through a dashboard or a report that my VMs are spec'd optimally. By this I mean it shows me for example a VM has 8 vCPU and 64gb RAM, but it doesnt need it and could be stripped to 4vCPU and 32gb RAM.

 

Is this possible? if so, could you guys provide me some direction on how I could configure this and demo it as I'm on a trial version at the moment?

 

thanks
