Re: vCenter 5.5 unattended installation documentation?

Weidou -- If you'd be so kind, can you take another look at this, and perhaps test each of these out on 5.5 please?  I'm focusing on the SSO portion only (so far), but when I run it (changing the .MSI to .EXE, which I'm guessing was just a typo) I get "Error reading setup initialization file".  I'm running it in an elevated command prompt, by the way.  I also tried running it with the corrected .MSI file name, and it tells you to use the .EXE (I figured as much, but wanted to try it regardless).  Any input you can give us on this would be greatly appreciated.  I also am looking to automate many deployments of VMware, and this is a key portion of that.  Thank you, once again.

Hey Beckham - Happy Friday and thank you for the response.

 

The customer is running ESX4.0. I had read that an ova bigger than 8GB may give this error message, but I have not been able to confirm.

Re: Storing JSON docs as PdxInstances with date support

Hi jschan,

 

The short answer is no - dates are not handled specially and end up just being String objects in your PdxInstance.

 

At first I wanted to suggest that you simply post-process your PdxInstance and replace the known date fields with actual Date objects, however that wouldn't work as you cannot change the type of a PdxInstance field unless it's an Object type. In addition, the JSON marshalling we have, currently doesn;t recognize Objects within PdxInstances. With that in mind and assuming you have control over the JSON structure, one workaround might be to convert the date string into a long and assign that to a different field.

 

Create your JSON as:

 

{  my_date: "2013-12-31 12:34:56"
my_date_long: 22222222222222222222
}

 

Once you've run this through the JSONFormatter you would have to convert the date string into an actual Date and then take the Long representation of that and assign it to "my_date_long".

 

You would need to create your initial my_date_long field with a value which could not be interpreted as an Integer otherwise the underlying Jackson parser won't see it as a Long and the created PdxInstance would end up with the incorrect type for that field.

 

I'm going to file an RFE to improve the JSON handling - at least to allow a user some level of customization for them to add their own de/serialization processing into the chain.

When you logon to the web client using the administrator@vsphere.local account, you will see the Single Sign-On entries in the Administration (i.e. your screen shot), which allows you to create users and also allows you to add Identity Sources (e.g. your domain).

How are you trying with two formats, OVA and then to OVF? they are different and I am not sure whether ESX4.0 supports OVF - Check in vmware site. I am out of touch with VMware for the last 2 years almost..

The only requirements I could find where VT-x and EM64T. Both should be supported by the Core 2 family.

 

(And, as far as I can tell, these are the same requirements as for Player 5.0.x)

Re: when to delete snapshots in parent image in View pool

you should not need to disable the pool.  Just disable provisioning of the pool.  This way the recompose option won't kick in while you are doing your work on the parent.  When you are done, you can then enable provisioning on the pool again.

Re: Bridge mode only not working

So, may I presume that after 2 years, Bridge networking mode is still broken in Fusion? I see all kinds of posts in this community about Bridge not working, but nowhere do I see a solution for a single user.

 

We just spent $5K on vSphere, and should be getting the software in hand within a couple weeks; I hope it works better there. Or, in other words, I hope it works.

I tried this out and everything looks good but it didnt actually do anything. I used the .vmx file as the datastore path and just used the vm name for the name. Anything you think im doing wrong?

Additional info:

 

Performance Data jobs complete successfully, and quite quickly.

The inventory jobs keep getting stuck at the same point:

Collector 1 - Stops at 34 of 122

Collector 2 - Stops at 1 of 166

Collector 3 - Stops at 6 of 152

 

These are all Windows servers. I am using the default collection settings - WMI (with remote registry on failure).

Hello everybody, Vmware newbee here. Got a question about the converter

Hi everybody, my name is Marvio and I'm just starting with VMware (I can see you guys rolling your eyes!)

 

I have to say I'm thoroughly confused about the converter portion of it, not the actual P2V process, which seems straight forward enough, but if I need to buy it...

I just bought the vSphere with operations manager Enterprise plus edition, does that come with the converter itself? Every time I search on how to use it people just download the stand alone install and use it, but right above the download button there's a big BUY button, what's the difference? I need to P2V 2 servers into vSphere ESXI 5, do I need to buy it, can I just download it, or does it come with the package I bought?

 

Please help!

 

Thanks

Marvio Botticelli

I'd say you are running two Cisco hosts with 48GB memory each, and at least one of three powered on VM's has a memory reservation of 4GB.

Hey Guys,

 

So i sat down to finally upgrade my vCenter server to 5.5. Everything went well with the installation. Logged into the vsphere client and checked the login and it worked. Logged into web client with admin@vsphere.local,local Administrator and also Domain Administrator. Everything worked well. Then i noticed, in web client no matter what user i log in as, the Inventory is empty. There is nothing showing up. Obviously i have missed out something so asking you guys for help here.

It depends on the host (vendor/model) and whether you either have the appropriate CIM providers or vendor tools installed on the host.
