Re: ESXi 6.0.0 install Exception

Also check if you have the latest firmware installed on the controller. From VMWare's HCL it's at least compatible up to VMWare 6.0: VMware Compatibility Guide: I/O Device Search

But at least firmware version 4.280.01-4227 is needed/recommended - this was released in April 2015.


Re: Removing memory reservation

Hi,

 

Yes, If you remove the memory reservation to 0 mb, then the .vswp file will increase to size of the configured memory of the VM. But VM continues to run.

There will not be a memory guarentee for the VM.

If any memory contention happens then VM performance may degrade.

Hi all,

I followed by OpenStack Configuration reference[1], download the cloud image and convert to vmdk:

$ qemu-img convert -f qcow2 trusty-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img -O vmdk ubuntu.vmdk

 

and then use glance image-create command to upload image:

# glance image-create --name "ubuntu-thick-scsi" --is-public True --disk-format vmdk --container-format bare --property vmware_adaptertype="lsiLogic"  \   --property vmware_disktype="preallocated" --property vmware_ostype="ubuntu64Guest" < ubuntu.vmdk

I have two clusters managed by 1 vCenter Server 5.5 U2 server: one is vSphere 5.5 Enterprise Cluster and the other a vSphere 5.5 Enterprise Plus Cluster. Can I use the Enterprise Plus features like virtual distributed switches (vDS) in the vSphere 5.5 Enterprise Plus Cluster?

I am confused I am setting up new esx hosts with update2 5.5. The emulex driver that was listed in the HCL compatbiology page was included in the rollup ISO. However I attached critical and non critical patches from update manager and now my emulex driver is way newer version than listef in HCL. It is even newer than what is listed for esx 6!!

 

Who do I trust? Have I broke my system it is still working.

Hello,

 

i had to update my kernel due to hardware.

As new kernels are compiled with gcc 5.1 i also updated it.

Since then i can not compile workstation kernel modules.

Everything else works es expected and i can compile other packages with gcc 5.1.

 

This is the only log message i get from workstation is:

I just want to know what do you suggest after VDCA550 passed, Is time to go for VCAP5-DCD, or you suggest any new certification?

My goal is to keep groving at server side (for now I don't want client or network certs).

Unfortunately I can't test this in my lab due to the lack of the appropriate license keys. However, I'm pretty certain that this should work. Although distributed switches are defined on the datacenter level (which - from how I understand your question - is a single DC containing both clusters), there should not be any issues with creating a vDS and adding the Enterprise Plus licensed hosts.

Hi all,

 

i have ESXI 6 running on my Labs, i need to know is there Data Duplication ?

 

Example - we have 2 Windows 2012 VMs, First one has 20GB full VMDK. but second VM uses only 10B space.

I don't think that Vmware running any algorithm to de duplicate the data in in storage .

But you can use think provisions to overcommit the storage .
