Anyone know a way to move a vds to a network folder?

$
0
0

I have checked all cmdlets.  I am running powercli 6.0r1 with vcenter 5.0.  There is move-inventory cmdlet,  however it only accepts items of type folder, resourcepool, datacenter, vm, vmhost, template, or cluster objects.  Otherwise its a no brainer:

 

move-inventory -item $vds -Destination $folder.

 

Of course it does not work.  I have been scouring for a way but am at a loss.  I checked perhaps a method on the vds or the folder to no avail as well.  Dragging and dropping works fine, so there has to be a powercli way to do it right? I also checked all the reconfig specs and objects with any clues if i can use one of them.  Or am i blantently missing something or unaware of a cmdlet?   I don't want to resort to dragging and dropping all 60+ VDSs i have.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi Rich,

 

Do you have any load balancing in your environment?

 

I haven't done this before, but my gut feeling would be to deploy a separate security/connection server(s) for your external users and when they hit the load balancer, this directs them to the separate sec/con server. (Based on IP/Geo/etc).

 

On the external connection server, create pool(s) that are the same for your internal users, you can even use the same gold image. Create a separate OU for this desktop pool and apply a separate GPO with copy/paste disabled that applies to them.

 

Does that make sense? I'm happy to be told a better way!

Hi,

 

How are your users connecting? Is it via a Zero/thin client or via a desktop workstation? Are they using the latest client versions?

 

Can the same users connect on other terminals?

Virtual Flash and ESXi standalone

$

Hello everybody

 

I have installed a lab ESXi on which I want to test Virtual Flash feature (SSD HDD installed on it).

For the moment, this lab ESXi is not included on my production vCenter infrastructure.

So I used the vsphere client (on windows) for doing the administration tasks.

 

My question is : the only way to configure the Virtual Flash features is using the webclient webpages (Host object / Manage / Settings / Flash Read Cache Resource Management / Add Capacity) ?

We can't do it though the vsphere client (on windows) ?

 

Thanks in advance for your help

 

Best Regards

 

Matt

Is there any further information available from the vmware.log file of the VM?

Windows 10 and Unity issue

Installed upgrade from Windows 7 utilizing iso- worked fine. However, A large grey window with Windows Explorer loaded keeps popping up when I go into unity. Any ideas? I can't close windows explorer and the actual window desktop in this case has none of the personalized background that I have when I initially start windows in single window. I have to restart windows to get the actual personalized windows 10 screen with background. Definitely quicker than Windows 7. Also I can't use the Quicken loader I had in the Osx dock anymore after the upgrade. I have reinstalled VMWare tools, but it didn't change any of this.

Cannot find the declaration of element RetrieveServiceContent.

Hi,

 

What version of ESXi are you using?

 

Can you post the output of:

 

show etherchannel load-balance

and

show etherchannel summary

 

Also, I notice you said a blade. Taking a look at this article it states:

  • ESX/ESXi running on a blade system do not require IP Hash load balancing if an EtherChannel exists between the blade chassis and upstream switch. This is only required if an EtherChannel exists between the blade and the internal chassis switch, or if the blade is operating in a network pass-through mode with an EtherChannel to the upstream switch. For more information on these various scenarios, contact your blade hardware vendor.

 

Is this relevant to you? If not, this article on NIC teaming using etherchannel leads to intermittant network connectivity might be useful?

 

Just trying to help with some ideas!

This got resolved, after adding additional compute resource to the Management cluster.  I already 4/6 Core 4 servers, added one more and installation went fine.

 

Thanks all for taking time and helping on this...Much appreciated..

Hi,

 

The requirements of using Flash Read Cache are:

 

  1. Ensure your environment is fully compatible with vSphere 5.5. You need a certified ESXi 5.5 host, vCenter Server 5.5, and a local SSD disk. To see if your hardware is compatible, see the VMware Hardware Compatibility Guide.
  2. Set up a Virtual Flash resource. For more information, see Setting up a Virtual Flash resource in vSphere 5.5 (2051647).
  3. Allocate Virtual Flash Read Cache to a virtual machine disk. For more information, see Allocating Virtual Flash cache to a virtual machine (2051572).

 

Do you meet these requirements? Also, it was a new feature to 5.5 and I am confident that it MUST be configured in the web client. I also have a feeling (casting my mind back to VCAP study) that the VM has to be of a certain hardware version (10). You can't assign vFRC feature to older VMs.

Re: Need help with PowerCLI stats collection

Hi Luc,

 

Thanks for the response.

 

For some reason, that doesn't work either, I see the stats I want when I do a Get-StatType, but when I do a Get-stat :

 

PowerCLI C:\> Get-Stat -Stat datastore* -Entity ESXi1

PowerCLI C:\>

 

Any ideas of why this would happen?

 

Thanks,

Marc

Can you configure the VM to collect statistics?  Under VM->Settings->Options->Advanced, set "Gather debugging information" to "Statistics".

 

I'll send you a PM with directions for uploading the statistics.


Re: BDE 2.2 Bootstrap failed

3-4 minutes is a little long which might cause the yum timeout error. I haven't met the timeout issue in my 10Gb vlan.

 

You can try to resolve this issue like this:

 

login BDE server as user serengeti and run command:  

  sed -i  's|^yum_package name|  yum_package name do retries 8; retry_delay 10; end|' /opt/serengeti/chef/cookbooks/mapr/recipes/prereqs.rb

  knife cookbook upload -V

 

retry creation of the failed mapr cluster via 'cluster create --name <cluster_name> --resume' 

 

this tells the chef-client to take 8 retries (with 10 seconds interval) when installing the mapr-core package.

The problem is quite easy to reproduce:

 

1. Map a .VMDK file belonging to VM to the host (any letter) using "File->Map Virtual Disk" (any drive letter, read-only or write mode).

2. Unmap it.

Get a nice Win 10 BSOD.
