Passthrough is configured on an ESX host, unable to take the backup image

Dear team,

One ESX host Passthrough is configured (LSI Logic /Symbolic Logic LSI 1068E) and the same is mapped to one of the virtual machine, we are not able to take the backup of the image of this virtual machine will get the following error.

The operation is not supported on the object.

Need assisstance VMware Expert on the same.

  • ESX host, as well as the NFS server?

    Hi all and thanks in advance for any help.

    I want to know if it is possible to turn essential a LUN on a host in a NFS for another host.

    The vmkernel will allow me to share a hdd connected locally on a host to another host?

    For example.  ESX1 has a 1 TB drive, ESX 2 boasts a record of 400GO.  I want to share the drive between machines as data warehouses.

    The hosts are on the same domain and a fairly typical storage facility.

    I want to leave the VI client manage sharing, but I need a mounting point for training and one for access to hosts.

    Setup NFS on both ESX hosts will cause problems?

    Thanks in advance, once again.

    I really need to know if I can just use NFS on each ESX and run it at the same time as VMware.

    The short answer is no.  ESX was not designed to be an NFS server, should not be.  Thus, there MAY be servers NFS that will work, but they have compiled and built on the ESX host, which is beyond the scope of this thread, so let's say no. NFS on ESX host.

  • Unable to perform the backup after changing the password for SYS

    Hello everyone, I'm getting the "unable to perform the backup because the database is closed" error after performing a backup scheduled on the database. The database is clearly open, already tried rebooting the database/system, but without success. This is probably related to the very recent change of password for SYS. As we changed it, we were able to run the backup... Can I ren hollow backupset backup RMAN command, but without success with Enterprise Manager.

    Does anyone have an idea? Thank you!

    Have you updated the password in addition to credentials on the OEM... Otherwise, please update and try again.

  • Disconnected ESX host cannot add to the CR

    It started with me being unable to power on a virtual machine that I created because of "Insufficient resources to meet the level of failover configured for HA" which is great because that's how to configure HA.  I tried to reconfigure the AP to the host by double-clicking on the host and select this option.  Once I did that it failed about 30% with "an error has occurred while setting up the HA Agent on the host" and the networking page disappeared from the configuration tab similar to what a lot of people reported during the upgrade, I think an earlier version.  This is not the case, I did not update anything.  Then I restarted service service mgmt-vmware restart and the ESX host disconnected from the VC altogether.  I can't use the VI client to connect to the host in question, but I am connected via the service console. All VM and the host not to requests ping and everything works. I've disabled HA and DRS and tried to add new ESX host that has not worked.

    Any help is appreciated.  Thank you.

    I found this article that has the same symptoms as you.

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalID=1004451

    Check if your esx.conf file is corrupted. Follow the directions in the KB article to restore or recreate.

  • You can create a view that filters (ESX host) Linux machines on the view of the Infrastructure?

    Hello

    We have recently implemented Foglight and VMware plugin. As part of the VMware plugin, Foglight pulls in all the Linux VM machines including the ESX host. Our team of Linux only manages the running redhat Linux hosts. They fail the ESX VM guest. That said, is there a way to create a view that shows only the hosts running redhat Linux?

    For example the view of rail infrastructure below contains 88 Linux machines, but nearly half of them are ESX hosts for our Linux team would not see all these. Is it possible to filter these?

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you

    Tony

    The easiest way would be to create a personalized, pair it with Infrastructure and then create a dynamic management component.  This will help create you a rule for "All hosts" where you can find just the hosts that are not of the ESX host and run Linux.

    The query would be:

    detail.topologyTypeName! = "VMWESXServer" & os.longName like «% Linux»

  • All virtual machines on my ESX host off power at the same time

    Hi all

    Recently I attend the interview. a guy asked me this question

    < police = "Times New Roman, serif" >all virtual machines on my power off ESX at the same time host < / police >< / police >?

    What was the cause of the highest of the error, how to troubleshoot the error.please me.anybody guide to address this problem?

    Thanks

    Surya

    If all the virtual machines if lower at the same time, my bet would be VMware HA. Just for fun, build it inside your head:

    (1) 8 ESX nodes, all service consoles connected to a unique management switch.

    (2) now to create a cluster of these nodes, put all your virtual machines in there and activate HA, choose ' host isolation response: power off.

    (3) draw power from your management switch. HA on each host will deduct that the host is isolated-> turn off all the virtual machines.

    Each host will think the same thing, and hop find you with all virtual machines down to the time in the whole of the cluster. Have seen this one several times when people go and upgrade their management switches in the evening ("hey, it's only management").

  • If the ESX host in cluster lost the connection to the storage what will happen?

    Hello everyone

    Could someone clarify if the HA agent monitors the availability of storage on an ESX host or is it only the availability of the network on the vSwitch COS?

    Thanx

    working with your team of storage, they probably have the right tools to monitor and alert to such problems.

  • Connection to the client with VSphere ESX host makes me download the old version of the VSphere client

    Welcome the OS Version: 5.1.0 - 2013

    Question: When I connect to my guests with the VSphere client it forces me to re-download the VSphere client. As you can see from the attached PDF there pretty much all installed versions. Yet, he's trying to go to vsphereclient.vmware.com to try to download again (which cannot because it is on a closed network). It is meaningless to me, as you can see I have all versions of the installed client. My boss who also has the same installed versions can connect. Actually, I installed 5.1 client so that should be enough. VSphere shows the host to 5.1.0 - 2013.

    Why is this not with my Vsphere client?

    Looks like your Client vSphere is version 5.1.0b (source: Match VMware vCenter 5.1 component Versions |) Virten.NET) and your ESXi host is version 5.1 Patch 4 (KB VMware: Products VMware correlating build numbers to update level )

    You need download the vSphere Client 5.1 update 2 version to directly connect to this host.

  • Cannot restore bookmarks. "Unable to process the backup file." I tried all of the solutions that I can find online.

    I am under W7 and 14.01 FF. My FF admin account works fine. My work account has problems. In the past I was able to get the bookmarks to return but not this time.

    The favorites were there yesterday morning and disappeared in the afternoon. Nothing has changed between the AM and PM to my knowledge. I tried every solution that I could find online but still no bookmarks.

    Problems with bookmarks and history does not properly can be caused by a corrupted database places.sqlite file.

    You can try to check and repair the database of places with this extension:

    Also, make sure that the backup has the correct file extension (.json to restore a JSON backup).

  • Use of DNS by ESX host

    I'm curious to know how important dns entries using host esx (DNS configuration & Routing tabs) as we change all of our dns servers. Do I need to reboot the ESX host, if I change the ip or is the service good enough restart or simliar control network? All the vm have dns entries, so I'm not sure what the guests need even references to. It's on Vsphere 4.

    Thank you

    Stuart

    If you run the only stand hosts, DNS is not important. However, if you run the hosts in a vCenter environment you need to make sure that the DNS resolution works. Otherwise, you will experience issues with host disconnection of the vCenter and HA no longer works.

    The DNS entries can be changed on the fly, which means that you can enter the new DNS servers in addition to those current and once the new DNS servers are in place, remove the old entries.

  • BladeCenters and ESX host

    Excuse me, but my brain is developing a white.  I remember something at the time where the host esx bladecenters came together than if you had several bladecenters and more than 4 or 5 esx host in the same cluster of ESX that you must make sure that not more than 4 or 5 of these esx hosts were not on the same bladecenter.  He had something to do with the power of failover and HA or vmotion would fail because all the master something would have been on the esx host on the bladecenter has died.  I'm sorry if I can't explain it better, but nobody knows what I mean and how to configure these master host so call to be distributed on several bladecenters.

    Thank you.

    You will love when that happens?

    Happens to me all the time

    He's right, HA refers to primary and secondary and that changes based on what affect the HA, if a host goes down or if a HA is reinstalled.  Duncan did a very good job of explaining HA and enter the primary and secondary.

    http://www.yellow-bricks.com/VMware-high-availability-deepdiv/

    I also believe that it is where I heard mention the same thing you're talking about.  We do the same thing in our data center - spread the blades between chasis. Duncan, I think even goes further by telling you how to manually set the primary and secondary feathers.

    See you soon,.
