Serviço do vCenter caindo direto - Banco de Dados do vCenter ficando cheio

Pessoal boa tarde,

 

Estou com um problema em meu vCenter de uns dias pra cá: Tem um arquivo do Banco de Dados do meu vCenter que está ficando cheio muito rapidamente. Eu adicionei mais espaço na unidade de disco em que ele está hospedado (30 GB), só que ele ficou cheio em questão de horas:

 

Arquivo VCDB muito grande.jpg

 

Depois que isso acontece, meu vCenter cai, e o serviço VmWare Virtual Center Server fica em starting, mas não sobe, e depois fica parado. Além disso, na console do vCenter fica desse jeito:

Obs. O banco do vCenter fica em um servidor, enquanto o vCenter mesmo fica em outro servidor.

 

Obrigado desde já pelo auxílio.

Hi guys,

 

I have been pulling my hair trying to figure out how to fix the VirtualCenter Server service not starting problem. Initially I had thought the culprit was an SQL database which was maxing out the 10GB limit. I shrunk the database but the problem still persists. In a log file I can see error entries such as (full log file also attached):

vSwitch shows same VM twice and two MAC addresses - but only one VM exist?

I am running vSphere 5.5 I created a Windows 2012 Server VM with some basic configuration settings.

I installed the default OS without the GUI . OS installed and I logged into the VM.

I then decided to blow away that VM and install the version with the GUI.

Second install worked fine.

 

However, if I open the vSphere Web Client and go to Networking,

Under the Virtual Switches, I see the VM listed twice each with a diffrent MAC addresses?

 

Is there a way to reset the VM so only one MAC address is assigned to the Windows 2012 Server VM?

 

thanks

Currently we have 3 Host Clusters at 2 Sites, each being managed by its own vCenter Appliance.  One Site has been upgraded to 5.5 and the other is still on 5.1.

 

What is the Best Practice for vCenter to manage both Sites?

Multisite SSO - does latency impact replication?

Multisite SSO for vCenter 5.5 has changed where data (policies, solution/application users, identity sources) is now automatically replicated every 30 seconds between each SSO server in the same vSphere.local authentication domain.


Does anyone know if latency impacts this replication?

Add ESXi4 host to vCenter 5.5 failed, Host do not support VSAN

Hi all. I've build a test lab running with vCenter 5.5, and a Dell PE 1950 server running ESXi 4.  I am trying to add the ESXi 4 host to vCenter 5.5 (to a test cluster), however, the Add Host process failed with the error message, 'Host 'x.x.x.x' does not support VSAN".  Had any of you encounter this issue, and is there a way to by-pass this issue?  I do understand VSAN is a new feature on ESXi 5.1 and above, but I don't expect it to stopping me from adding ESXi 4 to the cluster.... Thank you.

What web browser do you use for the web client?

I am curious to see what people use to access the vCenter server web client and how much luck they have had using the Client Integration Plugin. Currently I cannot get the CIP to run on either my primary linux machine, which I sort of expected or inside of my windows 7 VM on ANY browser. I've tried Chrome (doesn't support the NPAPI only CIP plugin), Firefox (doesn't support a new enough version of flash),  and Opera (also doesn't support NPAPI). I've resorted to simply using the thick client again, which I don't really like to do.

 

How the heck am I supposed to use the web client these days? What do you all do?

Granular rights assignment import/export OVF

vCenter Version: 5.5 U1

ESXi: 5.5 U1

 

As the title states, how can I grant a set of users that manage their VM's the rights to import/export OVF's?

This might also mean they can create and delete VM's as well. If so, is it possible to only allow them a "Resource Pool" where they can have their sand box?

Please post detailed step by step instructions for any solution.

 

Any help is appreciated.

web client not showing all port groups in a dvSwitch

I have a dvSwitch with a bunch of port groups. I can scroll down, but it stops scrolling before showing all of the port groups. What's up with that? Does anyone else even have that problem?

 

vSphere web client Version 5.1.0 Build 1115182. Do I need to upgrade to 5.5 before the web client fully works (yeah right like anything ever fully works right)? It disaplays the end (with the curved corners) of the switch in the view from a host, and cuts off the display at the bottom of the window in the networking view. I have no filter. It looks right in the vSphere client, which I can use. I just am wondering if anything can be done about this.

Browser: IE 9

Move VMs to folders in Hosts and Clusters view?

I'm testing out Veeam Backup and Replication and have noticed that it creates replicas and adds them to the vSphere inventory with a name such as VMname_replica and things are going to start to get crowded if I do a lot of replication. Is there a way to put the replicas is a folder so they are not mixed in with the real VMs? I made a folder under VMs and Templates called Replicas where the replicated VMs are going to but they still show in the main "tree" in the Hosts and Clusters view. You can make folders in the Hosts and Clusters view but cant add individual VMs to them but only add datacenters or clusters dependig on where you make them. I'm just wondering if I'm missing something simple or what the best way is to get them out of the main view?

 

The built in vSphere replication doesn't put replicas in the Hosts and Clusters view.

Hi,

 

 

 

I am setting up the parameter config.vpxd.filtervmfsfilter to false, but when I go to the add storage wizard in any host I cannot select any already used VMFS Lun. vCenter GUI are still filtering for avoiding corruption.

 

 

 

If the parameter is True (Default) or False, I have the same results for filtering.

 

 

 

I am using vCenter and ESXi 5.5.

 

 

 

Thanks.

Hello,

 

I've not seen this one before so I'm hoping someone else has as I can't find anything on Google.

 

The VirtualCenter Server service on our vCenter is refusing to start.  I've tried a couple of times and have also rebooted the server without any progress.  The vpxd log shows the following at the end:

I'd be grateful if anyway can point me in the right direction,

I'm testing the following components on my ESXi cluster, and I have a question.

- vRealize Operations Manager 6.0.0

- Infrastructure Navigator 5.8.3

 

 

 

Is it possible to treat auto-mapped VIN dependencies as objects in vR Ops?

I know that 2 types of VIN apps, "Manual Applications" and instances of "Application Definition", are shown as objects in vR Ops, but I'd like to know if I use vR Ops without any manual operations on VIN.

vCenter Appliance in Multisite domain/Large international DNS sites - Users cannot log in

Hi,

 

I have several VMware customers where I recently deployed the vCenter Appliance. Adding Identity source works fine within in the appliance. When I´m using administrator@vsphere.local I can go through the vCenter and add the correct users or groups for access to the vCenter. The Identity source is viewable with all its users and groups through vCenter using the administrator@vsphere.local user.

 

However. When the users tries to log on they get cannot log in through the web client. The get incorrect user name or password. I found this very strange. Is there som kind of "know error" how the vCenter appliance looks up the users or groups through AD/DNS? Several of these customers have a lot of DNS/AD servers. It might seems that the Appliance asks the wrong DNS/AD server or that the FQDN is not resolvable if it asks the wrong DNS server.

 

On one of the customers we deployed a Windows vCenter and just to compare and there everything worked imidately after installing SSO and vCenter. No logon errors.

 

Has anyone else run into problems like these?

In the windows client we can click on a cluster, goto VM tab and then export CSV / excel format.

 

Is there a way to accomplish this same task in the Web Client?
