Re: ELX_bootbank_elx-esx-libelxima.so conflict between patch baseline and HP custom ISO.

This problem described in the article https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/59257:

While performing an Update Manager check compliance, the host returns the error:

esxupdate error codes: -1. Check the Update Manager log files and esxupdate log files for more details.

In the /var/log/esxupdate.log, you see entries similar to:

ERROR: ValueError: VIBs ELX_bootbank_elx-esx-libelxima.so_12.0.1108.0-03 and ELX_bootbank_elx-esx-libelxima.so_12.0.1108.0-03 have unequal values of the 'payloads' attribute: '[elx-esx-libelxi: 1602.936 KB]' != '[elx-esx-libelxi: 1493.833 KB]'

 

Solution:

1. Enable SSH for ESXi host, connect to ESXi host via SSH and run command:

    "esxcli software vib list | grep ELX"

  Command Result:

    elx-esx-libelxima-8169922.so   12.0.1188.0-03                      ELX                         VMwareCertified   2019-11-19

    elx-esx-libelxima.so           12.0.1108.0-03                      ELX                         VMwareCertified   2019-11-19

 

2. Run command:

    "esxcli software vib remove -n elx-esx-libelxima.so"

3. Restart ESXi host.

4. Enable SSH for ESXi host, connect to ESXi host via SSH and run command:

     "esxcli software vib list | grep ELX"

  Command Result:

     elx-esx-libelxima-8169922.so   12.0.1188.0-03                      ELX                         VMwareCertified   2019-11-12

 

5. Download file ELX_bootbank_elx-esx-libelxima.so_12.0.1108.0-03_670.vib from http://vibsdepot.hpe.com/hpe/sep2018/esxi-670-drv-vibs/be2iscsi/

6. Copy file ELX_bootbank_elx-esx-libelxima.so_12.0.1108.0-03_670.vib to ESXi host in /tmp/

7. Run command:

     "esxcli software vib install -v /tmp/ELX_bootbank_elx-esx-libelxima.so_12.0.1108.0-03_670.vib"

8. Restart ESXi host.

9. Check compliance and remediate.

 

Cause of this problem is different files

Re: Persistent volume in VMware.

So long as you only want the data to be accessible by a vSphere VM, you can do this using regular virtual disks - just build the original VM with at least 2 virtual disks, 1 for the OS/app and 1 for the data.

 

You would then have 2 sets of VMDK files, they would live in the same folder on the same datastore by default, you could put them on separate datastores if required.

 

If the time comes when you need the data disk to be accessible by another VM, you would add a new disk to that VM but using an existing VMDK file (rather than creating a new VMDK, which is the default) - you would be prompted at that point to browse your datastores, find and select the VMDK file from the original VM.

 

If you want the data to be accessible from outside any VM, you could use an RDM for the data instead - that’s where your virtual disk is a LUN rather than a VMDK file.

Quiescing for Windows VM grayed up

Hi All,

 

When I try to configure the replication for a Windows 2016 VM with SQL 2017. The "Enable guest OS quiescing" is grayed up.

I have verified that "Microsoft Software Shadow Copy provider" and "SQL VSS Writer" service are running.

 

Do I have to do anything extra for Windows server to enable quiescing ?

 

The VMWare tools is updated.

 

Thanks.

Re: Certificates expired on VMware Tools for multiple Mac OS'

Still an issue on 11.5.1

 

Trying to update the VMWare tools for El Capitan VM.

Re: Error: VMRC - Failed to initialize SSL session to remote host

i faced the same problem on macOS Mojave 10.14 with VMRC 10.0.6, I checked the ESXi 6.7 host is UTC, changed the macOS Time zone to "London - United Kingdom", mac time is the same as ESXi server but still can't connect to the VM on Nov-20-2019.

VMware Fusion 11.5.1 cannot install VMware Tools on El Capitan

I have an El Capitan VM running on a Mojave host.  Before upgrading to Fusion 11.5.1, I had no issues with the VMware Tools install. 

 

Since upgrading, I've been getting :-

 

1. Expired certificate when running the upgrader (See Re: Certificates expired on VMware Tools for multiple Mac OS')

2. After uninstalling the 'old' VMWare tools and reinstalling, I get an error 'VMware Tools can't be installed on this disk. The version of OS X is too new.'

SSH Connection Error

VMWare is installed on two desktop connected in same network. One has Windows 10 OS and the other Ubuntu 18.04. Both the VMWares has RedHat enterprise as guest OS. I am getting error in establishing ssh connection. 

 

ssh: connect to host 192.168.255.128 port 22: Connection refused

 

What to do?

Fusion 11.1.1: Windows 10 VM running, but no window and no restart/shutdown

I have VMWare Fusion 11.1.1 on a MacbookPro with macOS Mojave 10.14.6. It only runs a Windows 10 VM. Because of some hanging Windows update process, the VM wouldn't shut down, so I force quit Fusion. Now, whenever I start Fusion, it says that the VM is running, but it has no window and no way to restart or shut it down. I can suspend it, but that doesn't do anything.

 

I tried to fix it myself by opening the package content of the VM in Finder and moved the ".lck" folders someplace else. But that didn't help - Fusion just creates a new ".lck" folder the next time.

 

How do I restart this VM?

Thank you for your response.

I have now tried to install an Ubuntu version developed for the Raspberry pi4.Where can I find VMware Horizon View for ARM processors?

I need a version with pcoip support.

Re: vRA 8.0 - Blueprint Design - XaaS Components

Thanks again Steve.  I've pushed the query over to our TAM now, so VMware can provide a response.

 

It would be interesting to know the thoughts from yourself, and the community in general, about the impact of not having this feature.

 

From my perspective we've only being using vRA for 6 months.  We've just started with infrastructure automation, and became knee deep in v7.6 very quickly.

When using event subscriptions to run vRO workflows I've found you can't handle the return codes back in vRA so you lose control of the script execution.  If a script fails, a vRA deployment continues uninterrupted.   If on the other hand, the vRO workflow is published as an XaaS component and dragged on to the vRA blueprint design canvas, sequencing and script execution is handled by vRA and any errors correctly interrupt the deployment.  Maybe I'm missing something, but if the ability to use XaaS components on the bp design canvas was removed, a huge amount of functionality would go with it.

Re: Bad OpenGL render

Hi luckygian1971,

 

Would you please attach the vmware.log to this thread? You can find it from the folder of your VM.

Re: Yellow status on LSI 2108 RAID after ESXi update

So the HCL incompatibility is suddenly causing the Yellow status? This server always had 6.5 installed, but the warning only started after the latest update.

Re: Stop MS SQL Express services after Upgrade

Yes, so this is normal OR or need to monitor anything to control the health

 

thanks,

No you can't. A Clone will create a vm with the same config as the original one.
