GuestOS do not go into shutdown when host went into maintenance mode without other running hosts in HA configuration.

I try to make all the two hosts go into maintenance mode in HA configuration.

when I started the maintenance mode of first ESXi, It works well after the host migrate guest os to another ESXi.

But when I started the maintenance mode of 2nd ESXi after the entering to maintenance mode of 1st ESXi host, It stop at 2%.

I think all all the guest OS shoud go into shutdown or power off because no other runnning ESXi exist.

But Guest OS do not go into shutdown, also 2nd ESXi host can not go into maintenan mode.

It seems that guest OS waiting to migrate to another host.

 

I don't know why Guest OS can not go into shutdown or power off even though no other running host exist.

The referenced advisory says that Fusion 8 is vulnerable, there is no mention of Fusion 7.  Is this because it was tested and proven not vulnerable, or because it was not tested at all due to Fusion 7's age?  I'm looking for reasons to justify an upgrade to the boss

cp errore input/ output nel copiare il file vmachine-flat.vmdk

Buongiorno a tutti.

come detto nel mio precedente post ho risolto in parte il problema ora se ne uno penso più duro da sistemare.

 

Durante la copiatura una VM mi dato errore in input/output nel copiare il file vmachine-flat.vmdk

Dopo aver superato il momento di sconforto ho fatto una notte di ricerche. varie prove e magie nere. alla fine penso di aver capito.

La VM era composta da due dischi, di cui un residente nel datastore principale e il secondo in un altro datastore (un cartuccia DATA).

Io no so il perché mi da questo errore ma è l'unica idea che mi è venuta in mente.

Ho provato a copiare il file anche con ddrescue ma il file che mi ha generato è più piccolo e risulta illeggibile da VMPlayer, VMWorkstation e compagnia cantante.

Quindi ora sono all'impasse ma ho pensato ad un'altra idea strampalata e pongo il quesito sperando in una risposta.

 

Io ho un server di test con VMWare 5.5 installato e ben funzionante, è possible collegarvi uno dei due dischi e montarlo per poi usare gli strumenti di recupero della shell di vmware?

Oppure, collegando anche il secondo datastore, potrei riscostruire tutto e far ripartire la VM e accedere ai file?

Che ne dite?

Troppo?

 

Se qualcuno c'è e vuole aiutarmi sarà il ben accetto.

 

Saluti cari.

Hey Dell fans?

 

My org is asking why a VMDK move (on the same datastore) seems like it take a copy time ?

When they ssh in and to the cli level its unix instantaneous (like it should be when you are working on Sunday and just want to watch football)

ESXi 6, CentOS 7 and GPU Passthrough with an AMD W7000

June 7, 2016, 7:01 pm

Hello!

 

Looking for a bit of guidance on how to properly setup GPU passthrough using ESXi 6, CentOS 7 (64 bit) and an AMD FirePro W7000 video card which is on the ESXi HCL.

 

So far I have assigned the GPU to the VM via adding a PCI device, and lspci does see it. However, CentOS, while seeing and activating the HDMI sound device, does not appear to recognize the actual GPU. I've attempted to install both ATI proprietary drivers and from the ELREPO repo... no dice; once I reboot the VM, the UI crashes.

 

Has anyone gone through this and perhaps can shed some light on the proper procedure? Somewhere I read that I first must install the VM, then the VM tools, then add the PCI devices... but nothing concrete.

 

Thanks!

AV 2.11 - Error deleting files from desktop / creating some type of files

July 25, 2016, 11:45 am

Hi everyone:

 

We recently upgraded to Horizon 7.0.1 and AppVolumes 2.11

And... voilá!

 

FIRST THING. When I have my writable attached and I try to delete any file from the windows desktop, the message "Item Not Found Could not find this item. Verify this item's location and try again." appears

AND... if after that, you press F5... the file is gone! (And is not in the recycle bin).

This just occurs in the desktop folder. In any other folder the behavior is normal.

 

Error 1.PNG

 

SECOND THING

If I do right click -> New text file (or bitmap file, but not all options, just some), Windows says ""New document.txt" cannot be created. The system cannot find the file specified"

 

I tried:

 

- New VM in  a pool with the new AV 2.11 agent (of course, my first guess)

- A new writable (from a AV 2.11 template)... same result.

- New App Stacks (AV 2.11 template)... same result

 

Error 2.PNG

 

BUT... when I disabled my writable, everything goes fine... so... I think this is a bug from 2.11 version...

 

Any thoughts..?

Strange windows behaviour - 2.11

Hi,

 

Has anyone else encountered the following when using 2.11?

 

 

Test 1.

 

Logon to a pool using 2.11 agent.

 

No appstacks assigned.

 

Go into a folder, right click and create new text file. New text file is created.

 

 

 

 

Test 2.

 

Same pool using 2.11 agent.

 

1 appstack assigned. The appstack contains a folder with an .exe in it.

 

 

 

 

Go into a folder, right click and create a new text file.  Text file appears, but when you delete it it says 'File could not be found', the file is no longer located in c:\blah. Verify the item's location and try again.  Press F5 and the file is gone.

 

Try to create the same file again and get the message 'Unable to create the file 'New text document.txt'. The system cannot find the file specified.

VCAP/VCIX-DCV, Requirement Confusion

September 11, 2016, 2:17 pm

Hi,

 

I’m hoping someone can clear something up for me. 

 

I was hoping to get the current full v6 VCIX-DCV and based on the cert portal it says that I need both the Design and the Deploy. The upgrade path to this cert from v5 is if you have the vcap5-design to take the v6 deploy or if you have the v5 deploy take the v6 design. At the moment I have both the v5 vcaps(design and deploy), so I decided to take the v6 deploy beta and a couple of weeks back got my results. I passed. 

 

The issue I’m having is that I’ve checked the myLearn portal and under the certs all I have is the VCAP6-DCV(Deploy), no mention of the full VCIX-DCV.  Should I e-mail vm certification to update the portal or did I mess something up?

 

 

Any info would be appreciated.

DRS(アフィニティルール)設定時のvCenterServer障害(vCenter搭載ホスト障害)について

はじめまして

初めての投稿となります。

 

vSphere5.0のジェネラル・サポートが終了し調査が行き詰まりました。

有識者の方ご教示いただけたらと思います。

 

当方vCenterServer(仮想マシン)、ESXi(4台)の構成を組んでおります。

OSやソフトウェアのライセンス都合によりDRSのアフィニティルールを構成しております。

 

これに対し以下をご教示いただけますでしょうか。

※vSphere6から仕様が変わるようでしたら参考情報として合わせてご教示いただけたらと

　存じます。

 

1.vSphereHAはESXiホストで移動先を管理しており、DRSはvCenterServerによる制御という

　認識に誤りは無いか。

 

2.vCenterServerが稼働するESXiホストで障害が発生した場合、DRSのアフィニティルール

　を無視したvSphereHAが動作するのか。

 

3.2.の事象が発生した場合、vCenterServerの復旧後にDRS(アフィニティルール)による

　自動vMotionが動作するか。

　※前提はDRSが完全自動化となっている場合を想定しております。

Nutanix -- VM Template

September 9, 2016, 4:35 am

Hi All,

 

In non-nutanix environment VRA blueprint is "Clone deployment". A dedicated template cluster holds all the templates. The template host can see all the clusters i.e.  template host cluster can see all the LUN's of all the clusters in that environment. So it was one template type( win 2012, win 2008)  per vCenter.

 

In nutanix environment how to achieve one template per vCenter. In Nutanix there is no "LUN" which can see all the clusters. Does it mean each cluster will have templates. Can VRA copy template from one cluster to any other cluster.

 

Any help appreciated.

 

Thanks

vRA 7 - Machine Placement question

September 2, 2016, 2:20 am

Hey guys,

 

I have a requirement to place VM's on the correct hosts/storage depending on whether their hostname ends in an odd or even number.

 

Example:

 

A cluster split across two racks in the datacenter. The customer requires that odd and even VMs are kept on separate sides of the cluster. E.g Odd VMs on odd hosts and odd datastores.

 

Placing VMs on the correct hosts isn't an issue as DRS groups can be used. However I'm unsure of the best way to ensure that VM's are placed on the right datastores within the cluster.

 

In vRA we obviously have Storage Reservation Policies, however I need the correct to be dynamically assigned to VM during the request, based on the name of the VM.

 

I've been down this path before, but with reservation policies, and had to resort to using XaaS blueprints to submit the IaaS requests with the correct data. However this time it's not really a feasible option as the customer doesn't really have any in house vRA/vRO skills.. So leaving them with a complex / hard to manage solution isn't the best way forward.

 

Would appreciate anyone's input on this!

 

Thanks
Craig

Can't map Shared Folders to drive letter in WIndows guest

January 15, 2014, 2:54 pm

I seem to be having a problem with Shared Folders in a Windows guest on Fusion 6. Turning on Shared Folders in the VM's options creates the "VMWare Shared Folders" shortcut on my Windows desktop, and I can open that and look at the files shared from the host as expected. However, it doesn't map the shared folders to drive Z: in Windows as I'd expect, and I also cannot go to the shared folders using the path "\\vmware-host\Shared Folders" (for instance, by typing that into the address bar in an Explorer window). This is a problem, because I need a pathname that I can put into scripts to refer to things in the shared folder.

 

Also, if I browse to Network in Explorer, vmware-host shows up there but trying to open it gives me the error "Windows cannot access \\vmware-host."

 

I'm running Fusion 6 on OS X Mavericks, and the guest is Windows 8.1. My .vmx file contains the following lines that I believe are related to shared folders:

 

isolation.tools.hgfs.disable = "FALSE"

hgfs.mapRootShare = "TRUE"

hgfs.linkRootShare = "TRUE"

sharedFolder0.present = "TRUE"

sharedFolder0.enabled = "TRUE"

sharedFolder0.readAccess = "TRUE"

sharedFolder0.writeAccess = "TRUE"

sharedFolder0.hostPath = "/Users/buck/projects"

sharedFolder0.guestName = "projects"

sharedFolder0.expiration = "never"

sharedFolder.maxNum = "1"

 

To me, the most bizarre thing is that I can get to the shared folders using the shortcut on the desktop, but typing the exact same path that the shortcut points to into an Explorer window doesn't work!

 

If anyone has any suggestions on how I might get this working normally, I'd be very grateful - thanks!!

reporting on Reservation usage.

Hi,

 

     I'm trying to get at the 'in use' capacity for a reservation via vRO or The API , and can't seem to find this anywhere, can anyone Help?

 

Within vRO , I can get the reservation capacity.... but not the amount 'in use' via the 'vCACReservation'

I can 'get the BusinessGroup Capacity/Usage via vCACCAFEBusinessGroup

 

But my issue is the BusinessGroups comprise of multiple reservations on different Farms, So I need to break down the usage by reservation so I can see if any individual Reservation is approaching capacity.

 

Basically, I want to be able to pull the data that's displayed in the GUI in 'Infrastructure/Reservations/Reservations'

 

 

          Thanks,

 

                    John,
