Re: VDP over NFS datastore and network monitoring

$

So far so good now. At 9:12 a (big) amount of data has been sent from the ESX to the NAS.

At first, I thought the 0 parameter didn't work but in the ESX's logs, it appeared to be an Integrity Check from the appliance.

 

Task: VDP: Integrity Check

info

2015-04-01 9:12:57 AM

** NO DESCRIPTION FOR: com.vmware.vdp2.integritycheck

VPD-Appliance

VDP: Integrity started.

info

2015-04-01 9:12:57 AM

** NO DESCRIPTION FOR: com.vmware.vdp2.integritycheck

DOMAIN\username

 

Look at the values after that:

 

Date Time Traffic Total (volume) Traffic Total (speed) Traffic In (volume) Traffic In (speed) Traffic Out (volume) Traffic Out (speed) Downtime Coverage

4/1/2015 9:16:24 AM 5,893,264 KByte 804,761 kbit/s 46,685 KByte 6,375 kbit/s 5,846,579 KByte 798,386 kbit/s 0 % 100 %

I also thought there were accumulated amount of data (buffered) since the last scan (an hour ago). But again, it seems the 0 parameter passed correctly.

 

I'll continue to update this thread with my results. I hope there are not too much Integrity Checks like this during maintenance period (i'm expecting only 1 or a few).

Must say that Backup window is configured from 10pm to 6am. Rest of the time is maintenance window.


Re: Backup solution for (free) ESXi

Hi, I have the same problem.

 

I need a simple tool (free or affordable) to make backup of my VMs running on ESXi free.

I tried the veeamzip but it doesn`t work with ESXi free version, so I uninstalled it, I looked for more solutions and I found this post.

 

I have seen here many solutions suggested:

-GhettoVCB

-Trilead VM Explorer

-Thinware vBackup

-Backup Gal

-Unitrends

-Spidsoft

-VDP

-XSIBackup

-VSquare Backup

-CloudBacko

 

I`m a little bit confused now, I`ll spend weeks to test all of them!

Попробуйте изолировать проблему установив чистую, не кастомизированную Windows 7 в виртуальную машину без какого либо стороннего ПО. Не вводите ее в домен.

Поставьте флэш и плагин. Потом попробуйте подключиться и запустить.

Это надо выполнять если у вас сервер НР и вы использовали кастомизированный дистрибутив от НР.

I'm not quite sure if this will help in any way but still i'l just mention it.

We had an issue with adding applications to a group allthough it was listed. What we did was move AD groups around and it looks like AppVolumes doesn't like that.

When you go to Directory --> Groups and click the group you have these issues with, do you actually see a number behind members other than 0?

 

If not it seems like, for some reason, Appvolumes cannot find or use the group. What i had to do is change this setting in the database (groups table) and changed the [distinguished_name] in the database for this group.

Re: Windows Firewall Rules in an App Stack

Hey

 

C::\svroot\Program Files (x86)\avaya\avaya one-x agent\sparkemulator.exe is not entirely the folder that is being used.

 

The appstack is being mounted in the C:\SnapVolumesTemp\MountPoints. If you look at the appstack or writable volume you will see a folder named svroot there, this is the folder information that is being applied onto the VDI by using the svdriver (Appvolumes) filter driver. It merges all info in this folder into the VDI. So if you for example have a file called C:\SnapVolumesTemp\MountPoints\SVROOT\Windows\temp.txt it will place a file temp.txt in your Windows folder.

 

I have no idea why it adds this svroot thing in front of the Program Files directory, i would normally think it would add c:\snapvolumestemp\mountpoints....

Re: storage vmotion esxi 5.5 to 6.0 not working for some vm

$

Hello,

 

@Alistar: You are indeed right.

 

Setting "Change Block Tracking" for the corresponding scsi disk to disabled allowed me to storage vmotion the machines.

So they need to be powered off, reconfigured and powered on. After that vmotion is working.

 

I believe that this configuration is automatically set by VDP. The machines where vmotion was working weren't backuped by VDP.

 

Management Network is gigabit and almost idle. There is only traffic when moving the machines. Then it goes up to 1 Gbit (100 MByte/s).

 

Edit: I was using the web client, since storage vmotion (moving disk and host the same time) is not working with standard client.

Re: Default volume got malfunctioned

Hi,

 

I got the volume in Malfunctioned state several times for different reasons. One of them was due to not enough free space on the disk (it doesn't apply to you as per your description), other one was because the machine where the storage is mapped lost the connection, and other time the Mirage services crashed and after a while the volume got the malfunctioned state.

 

As you can see there can be multiple reasons. However I was able to Mount it again once the problems were corrected.

 

You will be able to find more information in Windows application event logs in Mirage server. Also in Mirage server logs (c:\Program Files\Wanova\Mirage Server\Logs\server.log), you can search by volume name or storage path.

 

The SIS integrity tool will check if there are inconsistencies. I am not sure if your problem is related to inconsistencies in the storage. I would look first at the event logs and Mirage server logs. Anyway you can run the tool from "c:\program files\wanova\mirage server\wanova.server.tools.exe SiSIntegrity storagepath" and the following options VMware KB: Options for running the Mirage Single Instance Storage (SIS) Integrity script

 

I hope that helps.

 

Cheers,

Javier

Re: How on earth an I supposed to remember all this stuff for the VCAP? I tend to be OK with anything that can provide visual cues however when using the CLI for example...

Hi Luke,

 

I know what you mean, and I Scott's pointer to the in-line command help is  really useful.  Similarly the get-help and get-command commands in powercli.

However time is of the essence.  Repeat that mantra a hundred times.

So my tip for remembering is practice setting the Path policy until you can do it in your sleep.  If I said

"Set the path policy on Lun X to be round robin"

Then you can just go off and do it.  Practice that in your home/work lab until it's habitual.

 

If you're lucky you'll get it wrong and have to debug/fix it.  That's the best way to remember.  I found an issue with the order in which I was running the claim rules relating to having to the order in which the commands run which after diagnosis made sense.

 

There's a good blog post with screen shots here that runs through pathing, masking and SSD Tagging.

Also there are only so many things that you can be asked to do on the test.  I recommend to everyone who asks on here to use Chris Wahl's Study Sheet.

It's based on the 5.5 blueprint and was updated last year.

The VCAP-DCA 5 Study Sheet - Wahl Network

It has a list of items to tick off that you can do in gui/cli/lab etc.  Run through that and get a VCP buddy, or even a friend/spouse to shout out "Migrate a standard switch to DV switch for host 1 & 2, GO!"

When you can do any of the tick sheet tasks in under 5 minutes..........you're ready :-)

Хотел бы уточнить. У меня на этом желто-сером экране никаких кнопок нет (само собой, он и мыши-то не поддерживает), есть только упоминания про F2 и F12.

Экспериментировать не хотелось бы. Какой кнопкой Вы перезагружаете, это как-то связано с Ctrl-Alt-Del?

 

Я этим не пользовался, а на живой системе пробовать не хотелось бы.

 

Я понимаю, что при таком редком возникновении проблемы хорошей статистики не будет, но все-таки: есть возможность сказать, что на одних серверах

оно имеет место быть (более 1-2-3 раз), а на других - ни разу?

 

Виснет сам ESXi. Но это программа вроде жутко надежная. Я бы сказал "железо глючит", но если сразу на всех... сервера не из одной партии, надеюсь?

И все-таки я бы обратил внимание на температуру, качество электропитания, заземления, запыленность, влажность. На самом глючном в первую очередь под

подозрением память, БП, материнка (не вздулись ли конденсаторы). Ну, SSD - штука та еще, вероятно, зависшая операция на нем может дать такой эффект.

 

Кстати, в каком они состоянии, не тестировали?
