Will it be best to try and just parse the text or try and use another method with vCO


ESXi 5.5 Build 1474528 - VMDirectPath ATI Bonaire XT - Code 43 after VM Reboot -> OK after Host Reboot -> rinse and repeat

$
0

Hi folks,

 

i am currently scratching my head over a somewhat really weird problem and i am making zero progress on this past a really painful workaround.

 

 

Let me elaborate on the topic, just for the sake of it:

 

I was running a ATI HD4870 with VMDirectPath in a Windows 7 SP1 x64 Guest under ESXi 5.1u2 with VT-d for a coupe of months without any issues.

 

Lately i decided to upgrade the card to something more recently and energy efficient and was initially aiming for a NVIDIA GTX 750Ti, despite the fact that i didn't had much success getting a NVIDIA consumer-card to work (which was a GTX 480 if i recall this properly) prior to setting up the ATI HD4870 under 5.1u2 - and i didn't had much success with NVIDIA this time either, in fact everything i have seen during testing of the 750Ti was like a "deja vu" (Code 43, no picture, NVIDIA Control Panel APPCRASH, incomplete stats in GPU-Z due to the card not completely initializing, etc etc) so pretty much like what i have "learned" about ESXi w/ NVIDIA consumer-cards will trying to get the GTX 480 to work a good year ago...bad memories

 

 

So i was again looking towards ATI - a HD7790 with a Bonaire XT this time.

 

Since everything was already in place from my previous setup (IRQs aligned, primary/secondary display controller configured) i didn't had much trouble getting the ATI card up and passed-through to a fresh vmx-09 VM with Windows 7 x64 SP1 as the guest OS followed by:

 

* installing VMware Tools (custom installation w/o SVGA driver as i recalled getting a BSOD will installing ATI Catalyst if the vGPU wasn't running Microsoft WDDM - even though this seems to be fixed in ESXi 5.5)

* guest reboot #1

* installing ATI Catalyst

* guest reboot #2

* installing VMware SVGA-driver (to get the ATI card activated)

* guest reboot #3

 

After all this i...

 

* attached a monitor to the ATI card

* set it as the primary display

* disabled the vmrc console (to fully utilize the dedicated gpu)

 

so just like i did with my previous setup and in fact everything seemed to work just like before.

 

Now here comes the bummer:

 

Whenever i reboot the VM the monitor gets blank, the vmrc console reactivated and looking in the Device Manager of the VM the ATI card is marked with a yellow exclamation mark and the dreaded Code 43 "Windows has detected an issue and disabled the hardware"-Curse and so far the only way to get the card working again is by rebooting the entire Host/Hypervisor, at least until i reboot the VM again and the progress starts all over again.

 

Thinks i did try so far without any sign of success:

 

* Disabling the Onboard GPU

* Reserving all Memory to the VM

* Playing around with pcie.hole parameter (even through i am only using 2GB vRAM in this VM)

* Setting Physical Mode to IOAPIC (pciPassthru0.msiEnabled = "FALSE")

* Setting the reset method of the card to flr/d3d0/link/bridge using /etc/vmware/passthru.map (as i initially though this had to be some problem with ESXi not "properly" resetting the card during VM reboot)

 

Looking into the vmk*.logs in /var/logs doesnt provide any usable information either, no errors logged, it's just like the card is working completely fine, at least for the Hypervisor.

 

So despite rolling back to ESXi 5.1u2 - without any guarantee of success - i am currently running out of options.

 

Any ideas much appreciated

Thanks for reading.

Cheers!

Building vCO Packages with o11n-package Plugin

$

I'm starting to use the maven-011n-package-plugin, as found in the vCO Appliance's onboard Maven Repo or as obtained via the vCO Client's --> Package --> Expand to Folder functionality.  First of all, this is a very useful tool, however, the docs are very minimal.  And I have couple of questions

 

1) Is it REQUIRED that when I build a package ( from the native XML ) I digitally sign it? 

 

2) Is there a library version of the functionality embedded in this Maven plugin?  Or can I get the source?  Just wondering whether I can do this without getting maven involved; we use gradle.

Hi,

 

I am new to the form and vm workstation. Thanks for your inputs in advance.

 

I have 2 physical machine running Windows 7 OS.

 

On Host1, I have 2 VM's running Windows 2008 Server & XP. I have joined XP to Windows 2008 Server. If I try to join the VM machine running on Host2 to windows server machine running on Host1, I get the DNS error. However I'm able to ping all the vm machines in any direction. Is it possible to join this VM3 to windows server??

VCP-DCV510 Failed

Hello,

  I just took my VCP-DCV510 exam and scored a 223.  I am using a book that was part of a course that I purchased with VMware, however, I feel there a lot of information that was on the exam and I did not get from the course or the book.  Does anyone have an suggestions on other material or books that might help me.  Completely off topic, does anyone know the pass rate for the VCP?

 

I place the link of the book I used on the top of this discussion. I reviewed it from cover to cover. Does the DCV510 include anything from 5.5? I have also been working with ESXi for 6 months.

 

 

Thanks

PCOIP issue with View Client 2.2

Hello,

 

Since I have upgraded my View client to 2.2 I experience issues with PCOIP protocol. The client connects, but I only see a blank screen. Sometimes I'm lucky and it works fine a few times in a row. It's just not reliable.

 

But with the Client 2.1 connection to PCOIP desktops was very stable and reliable. I also notice with 2.2 even with RDP I get a lot more of disconnects.

 

I have an iMac with Maverick. I don't think it is related to Maverick.

 

Am I the only one with PCOIP issues?

 

Thanks,

Edy


Authentication issue when calling PowerShell script via workflow?

$

0

Hello all,

 

I am calling a powershell script using the "invoke external script" workflow and getting an authentication failure. I'm using kerberos authentication with WinRM. The script itself makes a remote connection to Citrix XenDesktop as the user the script is run as and the shared service account has the appropriate permissions. The script does work without error if I log in to the server using the service account I'm using for the shared account in the powershell plug-in.

 

Here is an example of the error:

 

[2014-05-09 16:41:20.481] [I] PowerShellInvocationError: Errors found while executing script

Citrix.Broker.Admin.SDK.SdkOperationException: The caller was not authenticated by the service. ---> System.ServiceModel.Security.SecurityNegotiationException: The caller was not authenticated by the service. ---> System.ServiceModel.FaultException: The request for security token could not be satisfied because authentication failed.

 

I'm scratching my head on this one, any insight or tips would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks!

Does VMware Workstation 10 support copying files from host PC to VM running in ESXi 5.5?

$

Is it possible to copy files from PC where VMware Workstation is running to Virtual machine in ESXi 5.5 using VMware Workstation 10?

 

For example, I need to copy files from my Windows 7 desktop to the VM with Windows Server 2012 in ESXi hypervisor using VMware Workstation and it is not working.

Meanwhile, copying file to VMs on the host PC is working fine.

 

The VMware Tools on VMs in ESXi are installed.

Question about using Pools

$

Our old system was vmware infrastructure and vdm admin and when I wanted\needed to entitle >1 user to a VM it was easy, just go into vdm administrator and entitle and add users that would need to login to VM

some of our VM's have multiple users say 1 on each work shift.

 

now we use:

vsphere 5.5 and vm horizon view 5.3

I create an automated pool\untick the enable automatic assignment and add my VM's to the pool

This is great when I have a VM that only will be used by a single user, I just click on VM and entitle and choose the user

but when I need the above situation, such as needing to have several users at various times use the same desktop then this is a problem.

Since I have already already entitled a user to the desktop it won't let me entitle another user to the same desktop.

 

the user assignment is called dedicated assignment, I'm adding an Individual entitlement

If I were to try to add an additional user to  the VM, what it does is remove the 1st user and adds the 2nd user so basically I'm left with only the last user that I entitle to the VM

 

I unticked the automatic assignment above because I want my users always to login to the same desktop everytime.

 

Is there any way I can create a Pool and within that Pool have multiple users be able to login to the same desktop, (of course at different times)?

 

thanks

Learning Pool Software packaging

There is a problem with the software when packaged it fails to work correctly when previewing a course.

 

The software can be downloaded from http://www.learningpool.com/. (Authoring Tool) .

 

The issues I was having were that the preview was not displaying properly on the screen and sometimes producing java script errors. Preview is a required function. These issues only appeared on the user's desktop, the software always worked in a clean/dirty state on the capturing machine. This software was working, but stopped back in March for unknown reasons - possibly Windows Updates?

How to perform upgrade of SRM 5.5 & VR 5.5 to update5.5.1. Need a plan to perform the same

$

Hi,


I would like to know the upgrade process with SRM 5.5 to SRM 5.5.1. we are currently running with replication jobs. I was trying to find out a best possible way to perform the update. I had below queries,

 

1.       What are the steps to be followed to perform upgrade from SRM5.5 to 5.5.1 and what is the role back plan if the upgrade fails? Can the VR server be in running state during the upgrade phase?

2.       What will happen to the running replication jobs. Do we need to stop replication jobs before upgrade?

3.       It is mentioned in the release notes[https://www.vmware.com/support/srm/srm-releasenotes-5-5-1.html ] that we should perform upgrade of the VSphere replication appliance server to 5.5.1 along with SRM server.  What is the impact of performing the upgrade of the VR server and what action should we take to keep the current replication jobs intact.

4. Can we leave VR server without being upgraded? also wanted to know how to perform the upgrade of VR server.

 

Any suggestions or recommendations with this would be really helpful.

Murali

Debian 7 Wheezy - iSCSI / LIO Problem with ESXi 5.0

$

Hello all,

 

I got a Debian Wheezy Server on an HP ML310e. this Server should be used as a iSCSI - Storage Server.

Unfortunately I am not able to connect my ESX 5.0 Servers with the LIO iSCSI target.

 

I used the LIO (targetcli) implementation for iSCSI and I used the official manual for set-up Linux SCSI Target - ISCSI.

I know that the Portal discovery is working, because when I enter the Storage IP in the dynamic discovery, both Storage-Portals will be found. BUT no new Device.

 

I Disabled the CHAP Authentication, because I thought it might have to do with this, but still no go.

My Windows 2003 R2 64bit Backup Server can connect without Problems.

 

I have the feeling that it is something small but unfortunately I am not able do find any Debuging or Log for the Connection process.

 

here are some Infos about my System:

4x ESXi 5.0 623860 mit vCenter 5.0.0 623373

 

HP ML310e as Storage Server with:

 

Debian GNU/Linux 7

Linux avaNAS 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.46-1+deb7u1 x86_64 GNU/Linux

 

[INFO] 2013-11-10 01:44:39 Using configshell version 1.1

[INFO] 2013-11-10 01:44:39 Using rtslib version 2.1

[INFO] 2013-11-10 01:44:39 Using targetcli version 2.0rc1

 

Attached is a screenshot from the current TargetCLI configuration.

 

Thank you for your help!

 

Cheers,
