Migrating from 5.5 stack to 6.0 stack

$
0
0

I have an existing vsphere 5.5 stack; 6 hosts, 1 datacenter, about 50 vm's, and some hacked-together storage...about 11 datastores.

I now have a new vsphere 6.0u3 stack; 6 hosts with vsan, 1 (new) datacenter.

Both stacks are in the same domain, on the same lan, and physically in racks next to each other.

I can ping and vmkping from old to new hosts, and from new to old hosts.

 

Can I simply detach a host from the 5.5 datacenter, attach it to the 6.0 datacenter, and do a storage vmotion from old host to new?

 

That seems way too simple, but hey...I'll take it if it works!

Hello,

 

I use mac High  Sierra, and download a Fusion Professional 10.0.1 for 30 days trial version. I continuously get  "can not find a valid peer process to connect to" notification, when I try to install any OS from image.

I am new to use fusion, I try to uninstall the Fusion ( both manually Manually uninstalling VMware Fusion (1017838) | VMware KB  and using cleanapp ), and reinstall the Fusion again (for multiple times), but I still get the same error.

I am so confused, I do not know where to find the log to locate to problem. Did anyone meet the same problem. please give me some help, thanks in advance.

Buenas Tardes

 

Tengo instalado vcenter server 6.0.0, pero solo puedo accederlo por el esxi, al parecer no está levantando algún servicio, por lo que he decidido hacer una instalación de cero de un nuevo vcenter. Si instalo la versión 6.5.0, tengo problemas con el tema de la licencia?

VM intermittently freezing/pausing after a datastore migration.

Hi,

 

I have a VM that keeps freezing at random times. Its never  under heavy load and is a decently resourced VM. After i completed a datastore migration i have these freezes. 6 other VM's are on the same datastore and host with no issues. The freezes show no error in windows or in vsphere logs.

 

Any ideas what it could be?

Vcenter and vshpere HA requirements

$
0
0

I am going to deploy vcenter HA and vshpere HA to automate migrate VM to another EXSI host in case of hardware failure.etc.

 

From the docs, I am aware that at lease 3 nodes  with 2 NICs( management and HA network) are required for vcenter HA.

 

I'm curious that can I use 3 node with ESXI installed, and reside Vcenter HA and vshpere VMotion/DRS on the same 3 nodes as well?

 

Does it need 3 NICs( management, HA, Vmotion) if the answer is yes?

 

I have finished the test that Vmotion/DRS and migrated VM automatically, yet with a single Vcenter, wich is a single point of failure.

 

Thanks.

ESXi hosts always switch disconnecting and connected to vCenter, and ESXi always report flush firmware configuration

$

Hello,

 

I bought a new server HP DL380 Gen9, and installed ESXi5.5 U3 HPE.

Then I met a very strange matter.

 

I used vclient 5.5 U3 connect to ESXi host and found many tasks. These tasks will happen every minute.

I added this ESXi host in VCenter 6.5, then every some time(it looks like one minute), this host will disconnect from vcenter and display not responding about 2 seconds.

Whatever I change vcenter to 5.5 U3 or move this host into the same LAN with VCenter, this strange problem persists.

Could any one help me? Thanks.

Do i need to change the settings on all the HA nodes, or will it replicate from the primary node to the peer and witness?

reverting to a snapshot

$
0
0

We have two sites, each with a two-host cluster of VMWare ESXi 5.5.  We use Veeam for backup and replication.  The replication job by Veeam is giving me trouble.  Veeam suggests I contact VMWare.  Since I am currently unable to open a support request with VMWare, I will post here.

The replication job by Veeam frequently fails with "invalid snapshot configuration".  I know the workaround of deleting the replica in Veeam, but that is temporarily helpful.  The error will just appear again against another VM in the replication job.  Deleting a 1TB replica and hoping the replication with complete on the next run is getting old and is frustrating.

Anyway, VMWare records "An error occurred while reverting to a snapshot: A required file was not found." at the same time as Veeam does.  VMWare also records "Failed to revert the execution state of the virtual machine to snapshot Veeam Replica Working Snapshot, with ID 48254".

I can not find the VM's log file, though logging is enabled. Where is the VM's log file?

What do I search for in the log files to reveal a clue or the cause of this snapshot issue?

slow snapshot delete

$

Hello,

 

I'm trying to figure out if we have a configuration problem or the hardware is just slow.

 

host: hp dl360p g8 with 2 nic 1gig in own vswitch (for iscsi according to documentation, mtu 8900)

1 switch tp-link (I know).. tl-sg5428. iscsi has it's own vlan, flow-control on spaning tree off jumbo frames on

msa 2040 // 20 10k sas 12gb/s disk in 2 volumes both in raid 5 /// 4 1gig nics in same tplink switch

 

When veeam deletes the replica's snapshot (it's the vcenter that tells the host to delete the snapshot), it takes 1 hour to complete.

I get read and write speeds in the avg of 25MB/s to 30MB/s (in both cases).

 

I have set the mpio to round robin.

 

I have already done a lot of tweaking and testing and I haven't done much progress.

 

Please help

 

Marco.
