Re: VAMI no longer up after update to 6.5.0.22000 Build Number 9451637

Follow up:

the patch update failed because the root password (or the admin password) needed to be updated.

You can see this in /storage/log/vmware/applmgmt/software-packages.log

So I updated the root and the admin passwords, installed the update via ISO, and now I am on version 6.5.0.22000 Build Number 9451637.

 

BUT:

 

VAMI was still not up after a reboot. All services looked OK in the VCSA console, but vami-lighttp was disabled in the OS. To start it, 2 options:

1) go to the console/shell and run "service vami-lighttp start", every time you restart VCSA

2) go to the console/shell and run "chkconfig vami-lighttp on", and reboot. (once)

 

I marked this as the correct answer as it is more complete, but I would have been unable to get here without the help from a.p.

Re: vSphere 5.5 - Shared Value for VM

I find the problem..

 

it turned out to be a hardware controller and Cache Ratio setting. In my case it was HP P410 Hw Controller

 

 

/opt/smartstorageadmin/ssacli/bin/ssacli ctrl all show config detail | head -40

Cache Board Present: True

  Cache Status: OK

  Cache Status Details: A cache error was detected. Run a diagnostic report for more information.

  Cache Ratio: 100% Read / 0% Write

  Drive Write Cache: Disabled

to fix it, the Cache Ratio must be forced by 50/50

 

/opt/smartstorageadmin/ssacli/bin/ssacli ctrl slot=2 modify cr=50/50 forced

 

and then suddenly the error disappears, and we can change it to the optimal setting for us.. for example 25 % Read / 75% Write

 

/opt/smartstorageadmin/ssacli/bin/ssacli ctrl slot=2 modify cr=25/75
/opt/smartstorageadmin/ssacli/bin/ssacli ctrl all show config detail | head -40

Smart Array P410 in Slot 2

   Bus Interface: PCI

   Slot: 2

[....]

   Cache Board Present: True

   Cache Status: OK

   Cache Ratio: 25% Read / 75% Write

   Drive Write Cache: Enabled

   Total Cache Size: 256 MB

   Total Cache Memory Available: 144 MB

 

dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/trash/test-file bs=999k count=10k; rm /mnt/trash/test-file 

10240+0 readed records

10240+0 writed records

10475274240 bytes (10 GB, 9,8 GiB) copied, 27,8135 s, 377 MB/s

 

 

And everything works!

I'm not aware of such a limit. Any VM configuration that's supported on both - source, and target host - should work.

Salve!

 

Vorrei provare vmware vSphere versione enterprise plus dove posso trovare il link? che in questa versione enterprise plus c'è la vGPU in questa versione.

Le mie domande da farvi è; questo software è in grado di monitorare  la macchina virtuale dopo aver creato su vSphere su uno smartphone android da remoto? è lavorarci su qualsiasi dispositivo sia tablet e sia su smartphone android o IOS a distanza?

Grazie e attendo risposte.

Re: VM data consumption on vSAN Storage

Hello andvm,

 

 

Verify what SP(Storage Policy) the VM has and that it is compliant with this (e.g. check that it doesn't have an FTT=0 SP and/or is non-compliant).

What datastore option are you using when performing the SvMotion? - Do ensure you are applying something valid and please show a screenshot of the what this shows at this validation point.

Are you 100% positive that your 1.5TB SAN LUN actually has 1.5TB space available? e.g. not Thin/Over-provisioned. Are you getting a pre-check failure saying not enough space, if so where and please share.

Are you using anything that isn't so savvy of SPBM such as the C# client.

Are the vmdk Objects attached to the VM all 1MB-aligned? (e.g. when you look at them under Edit Settings do they show as 2TB or for example 2000.12823467GB)

Facing this problem 2 years go when bringing a customer from 4.x to 6.5.  IIRC i "pull" the VMs rather than pushing them and i specify an old key algorythm/ cipher on command line for scp.  Not sure about  6.5.

I know I started with GB but then jumped on to TB, sorry for that but think the point I want to make is still clear, i.e. the vSAN storage migration should work as long as the LUN has available space that satisfies the data size that the Guest VM operating system sees.

 

Point1:  vSAN Default Storage Policy (FTT=1)

Point2: Default Datastore policy

Point3: Not sure, will need to check further. (Yes think error is a pre-check failure) Are you meaning that if the 1.5TB LUN currently has a VM with 600GB disk (thin provisioned) it would not allow me to make to storage migration? (Since it has to make sure that the current VM can grow up to 600GB) thus 1.5 - .6 = .9 left

Point4: No am using the web client (Not the HTML5 one as not supported on the version am running of 6.0)

Point5: Not sure but doubt they are aligned as can see the decimal points

 

I will try to research further and get more information.

 

Thanks

Unable to run virtual machines after the upgrade to 6.7

August 25, 2018, 7:10 am

Dear all,

 

I need your help since I struggle with virtual machines after the upgrade.

 

I have upgraded my ESXi 6.0 to 6.7 using SSH commands (e.g. https://miketabor.com/how-to-upgrade-esxi-6-5-to-esxi-6-7/ ). Immediately after I have signed in to the "new" web based ESXi vSphere I have noticed that:

a) virtual machines (2) have not started and have red exclamation mark

b) there are no datastores

 

I have tried the data store browser but web app throws JS errors on me. When I run Linux commands these are shown normally.

 

I have subsequently tried to downgrade ESXi, but this does not seems to be an optiion (both 6.0 and 6.5).

 

What I suspect is some hard drive controller driver missing (deleted during the update proces), but I do not know which one since there are many of them in the update log. Another thing that could possibly happened is that 6.0 => 6.7 was a big jump and I need to change VMFS to something new, because its no longer supported.

 

Update log:

https://paste.ee/p/risUi

 

Kernel log:

https://paste.ee/p/UZxWf

 

This is DYI home server:

CPU Intel Pentium G620T (2,2GHz, 3MB, LGA1155) BOX

MB MSI H61MA-E35 (B3) - H61, s.1155, DDR3, mATX

+ 3 hard drives

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

Early Access: VMware Pivotal Container Service for Workload Domains.

As many of you may know, this Early Access sub-community provides you an opportunity to download and discuss pre-released design materials for the VMware Validated Designs. We want you discover the latest content that is in development and learn about the potential directions in these designs.

 

I'm please to share the work that William Lam and I had the pleasure to develop recently, VMware Pivotal Container Service for Workload Domains. This early access material covers the architecture and design elements for adding PKS 1.1.x to a VMware Validated Design workload domain for a new container services layer.

 

The container services layer enables enterprises and service providers to simplify the deployment and operations of Kubernetes-based container services within the VMware SDDC. In the container services layer, access to production-grade Kubernetes distribution with advanced networking, built-in private registry, and full lifecycle management support of the clusters is provided on top of and integrated with the SDDC.

 

Got feedback?

 

We want to hear from you. So dive into this latest early access content and share your feedback directly with our solutions architects and product managers!
