Extending RDM disk which is part of Software RAID may break the disk layout at Guest OS?

Extending RDM disk which is part of Software RAID may break the disk layout at Guest OS.

 

We have Windows VM with Exchange installed on it and it's Execs mail box server.

 

There is M:\ drive created with 7 TB (RDM disk) + 500 GB VMDK = 7.48 TB as SPANNED DISK via Sofware RAID at Guest OS

 

We need to increase the disk space by 1 TB to this disk

 

A) Can we extend the physical RDM by 1 TB?

B) Can we just add another 1 TB VMDK + add to spanning disks?

C) Can we extend 500 GB VMDK to 1.5 TB + extend at Guest OS

Hello,

 

I am unable to setup a tunnel VPN between a stonesoft and a ESG 6.3.3.

I already have 3 working IPsec VPN with 2 sonicwall and Azure.

It seems the stonesoft couln't recognize the ESG as a valid VPN gateway, it doesn't pass the phase 1.

 

Please see the log at the Stonesoft side:

"No rule found for IKE peers XX.XX.XX.XX and XX.XX.XX.XX: Peer IP address mismatch"

"Sending error notify, no proposal chosen"

"IKE state start sa negociation R: outgoing ike SA values processing failed: No  proposal Chosen.

 

The log at the NSX side:

Audio not working on Windows 10 VM after v12.5.4 upgrade

March 15, 2017, 4:42 pm

I have two, 64-bit Windows 10 Pro VMs running on a Windows 10 Pro host. The host is a Dell Latitude E-6430.

One of the VMs rolled up just fine, but the other is throwing errors regarding the audio controller. The speaker icon in the system tray is marked with a red X. When clicked, Windows attempts to repair the error and fails. Device Manager does not show an entry for Sound, Video, and Game Controllers like the 'good' VM does, but rather an entry for Other Devices where the Multimedia Audio Controller is shown with a yellow triangle and the device status is listed as Code 28, "The drivers for this device are not installed".

 

I've rerun the VMWare tools update; first Repair, then Modify where I removed the device from both Device Manager and VMWare, rebooted, reinstalled, and the condition persists. I've tried manually installing the driver, but that fails with the message "The installation failed because a function driver was not specified for this device instance". References for this type of error harken back to Win XP and Vista days; I've tried what I've seen but nothing has worked so far.

 

Can anyone offer any sage advice?

 

Kind regards,

Looking for help on solving why i can not connect a physical serial port in workstation 14.

 

I am using workstation 14 hosted on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS  7.5GB, 64bit.

Guest is Windows XP Pro.  I have no problem running to vm.

when a I add a serial port to the VM settings:  connect at power on checked, Use a physical serial port: checked, Device: Auto detect(this is the only option).

 

when powering on i get:

Cannot connect the virtual device serial1 because no corresponding device is available.on the host.

Do you want to try to connect this virtual device every time you power on the virtual machine?

 

Yes

 

Next window

Error toggling removable device: Serial port serial1 connection operation failed.

 

ok

 

Any ideas of how to get the serial ports to show up?

 

Thank

I have created 2 clusters for NSX deployment, One as Management with 3 host and the other with Compute and Edge with 6 host. I have NSX license for 6 host which is Compute and Edge, so i will be deploying the edge services on these servers. All the 9 host connect to a single switch. Management cluster with 3 host does not have nsx  license and i will be deploying NSX manager and controller on this. The problem i have is in defining the vlans specially the managmnet/Vmotion ect on Management cluster and almost same on Compute on edge pod. I was trying to understand the communication and flow of traffic between the vlans from management cluster to edge/compute.

Datastore Total Path Alert question

November 28, 2017, 11:50 am

Hello all,

 

Currently we are running vROps version 6.3 and am trying to understand the Datastore alerts; in particular the "datastore has one or more hosts that have lost redundant paths to a storage device."

 

All of our hosts should have 4 total paths to each of our datastores and for the most part when we lose a path the 'out of the box' alerts in vCenter emails our team that we lost a storage path.  The problem is that it doesn't clear that alarm when the path comes back up. 

 

Now looking at vROps and see where I can create my own alert (or edit the default one) but trying to see if it's possible for us to edit/create an alert that emails us when the total paths is less than 4.  Is this possible?  I've played around a bit but am a little confused about some of the terminology.

 

I cloned the default alert and changed it around to have the following for the "symptom":

 

"Defined on:  Descendant-Datastore

This symptom set is true when:

<= 3 count of descendant datastore objects exhibit Any of the following symptoms.

1.  Host(s) lost redundance to storage device(s)."

 

Right now one of our ESXi hosts only has 3 paths to 5 datastores (all other hosts are fine and have 4 paths) and not seeing any alerts in vROps so I know I am not doing something correct.

 

Thoughts or suggestions are welcome!

vCACCAFE:VCACHost not showing content that exists on tenant

When expanding the folders in a VCACHost object I'm only seeing a subset of the content that exists in a tenant. For example, when expanding one of the objects and going to Administration > Composite Blueprints, some of the composite blueprints are not shown however, they do exists as I can see them when using vRA tenant through a browser.

 

Any ideas why only a portion of the content is showing up in the VCACHost object in vRO?

How to script out adding ISO as CDROM to collection of VMs.

I am very green with vRA and vRO.  This is going to be the beginning stage of my first project in learning these technologies.  The goal is simple.  The steps, are not so much for me.

1.)  I have a collection of Vms that I would like to attach an ISO to (ISO will be explained further on).  I would lkek to have these VMs noted possibly in a text file.  I am assuming I could use a For Each (VM in txt) and loop thru each VM,

 

2.)I have a batch of ISO's in a datastore (on my vSAN).  The ISO filename will always be constant (for instance file.iso).  They would be located in (again, for instance) vSAN/ISO/Jan/;  /vSAN/ISO/Feb/; /vSAN/ISO/Mar/  When the workflow is launched, I would like the user to be prompted for the month.  User types in Jan and the iso vSAN/ISO/Jan/file.iso is attached to list of VMs from step one.

 

Again, I am very green, and would really appreciate any help.

 

Thanks.

Possible to host a Windows Share on a vSAN Cluster

We recently purchased a VxRail cluster running VMWare/vSAN. For all of our Windows clients we redirect all documents and desktop folders to a share that is hosted on a 2 node Windows Failover Cluster. I wanted to know if there was anyway to host the actual share directly on the VxRail/vSAN cluster. Since the VxRail/vSAN is already configured with multiple levels of failover I just don't see the need to set up a Windows Failover Cluster. I will still need to set ntfs permissions on user folders within the share. Is it at all possible to set up a share directly on the vSAN cluster that can have ntfs permissions applied to it?
