Re: How do I logrotate third party application log in ESXi 6.0

Sounds promising but I cant test it.  I do not have a Development ESXi Server available at this moment so I will have to wait for another client to make tests before getting it on production.

 

I found a script that does the job to make versions of the log but the old versions are not removed so the log will not grow indefinitely but the count of files will.  This is OK but not enough as cant let the ESXi unattended.  I am not a bash programmer so I do not know ho to modify it to remove the old files after a certain number of them.

dingo and djciaro are you guys doing the below steps assuming your server is running HP Hardware:

 

1. Update the firmware using the last HP SPP 2016.04 (864794_001_spp-2016.04.0-SPP2016040.2016_0317.20.iso) ?

2. Upgrade or install the ESXi using the HPE latest ESXi (VMware-ESXi-5.5.0-Update3-3568722-HPE-550.9.5.0.33-Apr2016.iso) ?

There is no support for thin-print in Mac OS X guest, but you can add the printer in the VM manually.

 

It would be convenient to have a "Add Device ..." selection.

Could someone please help me?

ESXi 6.0 CENTOS 7 VM network issues

$
0
0

Setup: VMWare ESXi 6.0 Update 2, with a Centos 7 guest VM using vmic1

Problem: Centos 7 cannot ping default gateway, but can ping other hosts on the same network. As seen from the output below (both Centos and Windows10) these hosts all report the same MAC for the FW (default gateway) in their ARP tables. The Centos host pings the Windows box with no problem and vice-versa. Win10 has no issues pinging the default gateway either. Furthermore, the mac address for the Centos box is also listed in the FW's ARP table at the bottom. Can someone help identify the problem here?

Same problem here.  I never had this problem with Workstation 11 and earlier.  Now, with both Workstation 12 and 12.5 it's a constant battle to try and avoid "Building Menu".  If it works, it works, otherwise I have to reboot the VM and try Unity again.  This stinks.

can you ping to gateway 192.168.255.1 from win10 and centOS and share output?

no, you have to take 3rd party app backup separately.

Migration of SUSE Linux VMs from HyperV to ESXi

I have SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12.x virtual machines currently running from HyperV2012 R2, with UEFI Firmware Interface.


As per the VMWARE converter user guide, its not listed as supported. SLES 12 is not listed at all, and as for the UEFI in SLES 11 version itself is listed not supported in the userguide. Would that mean it would not support the offline migrations as well ?


any feedback is much appreciated.

Apologies for delay , was on vacation .

Just downloaded the new version and retried , no noticeable change .  Still no access to any redirected drives.

Still suspicious of server side configuration possible inhibiting .

Were about to upgrade the server side to Horizon 7 so will see if that has any affect.

I had same issue with VMware Horizon View Agent 7.x and I wasted entire day looking for some solution.

Finally my findings are "sometimes we look at the bigger things and forget the smaller things and mess up everything".

 

Let me ask you, have you tried to disable the Anti-Virus protection from your machine?

AntiVirus tries to stop everything and everybody to make sure the system is protected and sometimes its pain.

 

I had McAfee and I had to go to VirusScan Console and had to Disable below things:

     Access Protection

     On-Delivery Email Scanner (which I don't think is required, for 1-2 minutes there is no harm in disabling this)

     On-Access Scanner

 

And the problem got resolved.

In one of the KB, It is clearly mentioned about VM disk resizing challenge with vsphere replication but i am unable to find any KB where same challenge is mentioned with ABR. Is it same with ABR replicated VM? Is it supported by VMware to modify the disk size of ABR replicated VM.
