Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,

Re: Could not power on VM : Invalid metadata - storage

Hi,

 

Are you able to browse your datastore and create a file from your esx1? 

Then try this, power on your VM on esx2, and then , migrate this VM using vMotion to esx1, is this works?

 

Regards,

Julien.

I'd really suggest you ask the network guy(s) how the uplink ports are configured! It looks like there are multiple subnets/VLANs involved here!?

Re: VDS import to new vCenter fails

I'm getting the same/similar error.  I can create NEW dVS's no problem, but I get that error as well, despite the import action itself completing successfully----there's no vDS resulting.  Was this ever resolved for you?

Re: Does VMWare offer an alternative to terminal services in the following respect...

"I'm not sure I'm on the same page as you.   If you have one virtual 2K3 Terminal server then everyone could just use their exisiting workstation and the VMware View client to access that Terminal Server. "

 

At present we don't have terminal server licences, which is a costly option for us, being a small business. I'm trying to think of alternatives.

For example having virtual workstations talk to the virtual server, lets us avoid terminal server licences. Each physical workstation can legally RDP into the virtual workstation using the free RDP licence.

 

Looking at Ted's great info, I see keeping all the virtual machines together allows them to communicate far faster and efficiently than they do currently over the 100 Mbit LAN

 

What VMware product is needed ?

 

1x Virtual Win2k3 server

10x Virtial PC's running Win XP

 

Physical workstation #1 RDP's into VirtialPC #1 and so on....

Julien - I am not in  any kind of rush because this is my home lab environment as well.  So, you suggest creating a new server with a forest/domain and then
installing vCenter using the FQDN? 

 

 

Thank you

Yes.

 

PowerCLI (copied JayhawkEric's post from above to add catalog item)

 

$numVapp=100

$vappTemplate = Get-CIVappTemplate -Name "My Catalog Item Name"

#assumed only one item with the name exists, otherwise a little more work like loading catalog might be done first

#ie.  $vappTemplate = Get-CICatalog -Name "CatName" | Get-CIVappTemplate -Name "My Catalog Item Name"

$vAppBaseName="ExampleVappCreation-"

$vAppCopyFrom = Get-CIVApp -Name "Your vApp or vApp Template"

for ($i=1; $i -le $numVapp; $i++)

{New-CIVApp -Name ($vAppBaseName + $i) -VAppTemplate $vappTemplate }

 

 

(You might want to move this over to the SDK forum or the API forum if you want to use more than PowerCli)

Oh ok .

I suggest, to create a new VM (2008R or 2012) which is integrate to a domain.

Then install SSO and vCenter component using FQDN right.

VM converter error while moving a virtual machine to another esxi 5.1 server

Hello,

I trying to copy a vm that's on an old amd processor to another system with a newer socket amd processor using the latest vm converter standalone.  I get the following error "Unable to validate the destination.  Error:vmodl.fault.SystemError"  the esxi 5.1 versions are the same on both servers and the difference is the older is regular SATA vs SATA raid controller on the newer system.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.  The VM that im trying to move over is Windows 2008 R2 64 bit.

 

Thanks

Hi,

Yes I can browse the store and I can create files on esx1, esx2 - localstore and on Dell MD Storage store. If I power VM on ESX2 and migrate to ESX1 then it works - until I have to restart VM on ESX1.

Re: расшарить интернет на другой сервер

Правильно будет провод с интернетом воткнуть таки в циску и сделать изолированный влан, в котором будет интернет провод торчать и по 1 аплинку от каждого сервера. А на серверах по виртуальному свичу ( совсем не обязательно распределённому, можно просто стандартный) с аплинками, которые торчат в влан с нтернетом, ну и к этим виртуальным свичам подключены вм, которым нужен интернет. Проще не придумаешь.

Coler wrote:

Возможно сделать на сервере № 1 два аплинка (в одном инет, а другой соединить с аплинком на сервере № 2), но пока нет возможности проверить.

Так сделать не получится, если только не городить на сервере N1 вм со шлюзом, который, как я понимаю не нужен. И даже со шлюзом получится так, что, если вы с этим сервером будете проводить какие-нибудь работы с выключением-перезагрузкой сервера, то нигде интернета больше не будет.

 

Если жалко по аплинку от сервера отдавать на интернет, можете на циске эти порты транками сделать и тегированный интернетовский трафик пустить по одному аплинку с другим трафиком, создав разные виртуальные свичи с одним аплинком, но разными VLAN ID.

I noticed this question is similar to: http://comm-prod.vmware.com/message/2230187.

  • is it with vSphere Web Client 5.5 beta or 5.1?  vSphere Web Client 5.1
  • is it happening with specific views and when your plugin is involved?  Is the UI affected at all? After the UI loads, recent tasks pane breaks.
  • does your plugin have a data provider which uses DataException or throw exceptions?  In that case can you log when this happens and see if it's related?

Yes, my plugin has a data provider but it's not throwing any exceptions (added try catches and logging around constructor and getData methods).


Thanks in advance,

Ben

Re: vmk0 in different subnet than vmnic it is attached to on dvSwitch yet it still has connection to VCenter server

Hi,

 

It is not necessary for a vCenter to be on the same subnet as your Hosts. The vCenter must be capable to reach all your hosts. That's all.

I was getting this error. Turns out the account used to connect vshield to virtual center only had read only permissions on the VC. Changed it to administrator and then refreshed everything in VSM and it went away.

Re: Mass vApp Deployment

Any way to automatically 'check' the VMware Tools option when deploying an OVF Template?

0
0

We packaged up a VM as an OVF template. We set some network properties during the deployment itself, using XML properties in the OVF. These properties can't be sent to the VM unless the "VMware Tools" checkbox is on as seen in my screenshot here:https://www.evernote.com/shard/s128/sh/f70e862e-4520-4950-979b-5e95fd95a018/3d98d6448f5566b33d7baa11cd8d968f

 

This means we have to deploy the OVF template powered off, then click "edit settings," check the checkbox, and then power on. Fine for us, but confusing for people we give the OVF to.

 

Is there any way to have the OVF automatically set this option when it deploys itself?

 

Thanks,


Matt

Re: Could not power on VM : Invalid metadata - storage

Hi,

 

I see this on your log files

 

"[2013-07-17 13:43:17.723 F5670B90 info 'ha-eventmgr'] Event 2890 : At least one corrupt resource metadata region was detected on volume 4d1c7cab-1c64ceea-1298-0010188b4918 (VM_Store). Other regions of the volume might be damaged too."

 

Your volume is corrupted.

 

 

 

assuming to this, you need to delete the datastore, delete the Lun from your storage area. Then, create a new lun and re-create your datastore.

 

Just before, so can you move your vm on another datastore and try to make the same operation?

 

Regards,

Julien.
