Hey Folks,

Wondering if you can help me out with a problem. I have a NSX-T 2.4 environment with 3 transport nodes and 3 different segements. The problem I have is I can not ping across hosts in the Transport Overlay Zone to VM's in the same segment. When I look at the Transport Node the Tunnel is down but on the EDGE devices the tunnel is up. My suspicion is and I want to know how I can validate it is that the NIC doesn't support GENEVE offloading and I want to confirm that GENEVE offloading support is required at the NIC level.

TIA!

Getting this error on NSX-T 2.4.0.0.0.12456291 after not having logged in for a while and a few improper reboots due to vSphere HA events. Posting up in case anybody else has seen this, or if I figure out a fix.

Hi,

Can someone please suggest if we can clone/convert vmware virtual machine and preserve its snapshot on destination machine.

Hi all,

I'd like a VM start only after my NAS has booted and gone UP.

In order to achieve that, I have a VM stored (vm number 1) in the NAS datastore, with autostart order "1", and another vm (vm number 2) on esxi local datastore, with autostart order "2".

Let's say power goes off and then turns on again: both esxi and nas starts, and nas takes more time to be up than the esxi.

I were expecting the machine 2 boot up only after 1 have booted up (it means, nas is up and running) but I found only the number 2 is up and number 1 down and will not boot up automatically even if I see the nas datastore is up.

About NAS still disconnected when esxi booted, I have a cron that every 2 minutes reconnect any disconnected nas datastore.

I'd like know more about how autostart works in esxi, but did found no documentation other than how configure it.

If someone can help meon  what I am doing wrong (and why), will be really appreciated!

Or just pointing me to another way to solve what I were trying to get (a vm that starts only after nas is up), of course.

TIA, Andrea

Hi I'm running Workstation 12 player on Windows 10 and I'm running both Ubuntu and Windows 10 virtual machines. The issue I'm having is that torrents download fine with qbittorrent and deluge but with both I get yellow/red connection signs and get a red check mark when testing the port in deluge. I do manage to upload as well but it's really poor performance compared to what I get on my original windows and I guess this connection issue might be causing it? I have tried changing ports and even using the same port on the original windows pc which has a green connection but nothing helps.

So what's the issue here? Does the traffic go through another port since they are on the virtual machines? What can I do to fix it?

Hi all. My objective is the following:

1) Stop VM

2) Take snapshot

3) Update video ram to new value

4) Start VM

I want each task to be confirmed as complete before proceeding to the next task.

The VMs are in a CSV file.

The stop VM and take snapshot completes successfully. Although there's an error in the second part (screen output).

It doesn't actually update the video ram but just prints out the part stating the script will complete before powering on the VM and it gets stuck there because the VMs are actually not powered on.

The screen output is below:

Hi,

when i want to change vSAN policy I face the warning message "java.lang.RuntimeException" and can not edit this policy. I also see this message when I want to use vSAN for a pool in Connection server.

Hello,

I got this error: "transport (VMDB) error-14: pipe connection has been broken"  on some of my virtual machines and the virtual machines were restarted by HA.

Some restart tasks were unsuccessful.

Do you have any same experiences?

I try to do the convergence from the web UI with 6.7.0.40000 Build 14367737

I have a couple of VCS/PSC on two sites and replication between each PSC

The process succed on first couple, the second failed on step below

        {

            "key": "firstbootpart1",

            "value": {

                "description": "Run vmafd firstboot",

                "status": "FAILED"

            }

        },

I think i'm exactly in that case : VMware Knowledge Base

so I disable TSO and GSO as explained on both PSC (source and replicat embedded previously converged)

But know, how can I restart the process ? should I restore backup ?

Another question, since the first converge succeed I haven't yet decommission it, I expect to do that after full convergence, but doesn't know the best practice.

Running Fusion Pro 10 on MacOS Mojave 10.14.2

Fusion is running Windows 10

We are migrating Windows 10 from Fusion 10 to Esxi host 6.7 as VM, using the below article:

https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2082122

However we get "Failed to send http data" error on upload.

Error on vCenter reads: Deploy OVA template: The task canceled by a user

We are connecting to vCenter via its IP address to avoid running into DNS issues.

Any advice is greatly appreciated?

I purchased VMware vSphere 6 Essentials Plus but I only have two servers and I was told that I should be able to have some redundancy - even if it is minimal.

Both machines are identical and right now based upon how they were deployed each one has 2-3 VM machines already running.

What I would prefer to do is have everything on one VM and have a redundant copy / image on the other that is turn off and is just basically a standby in case the other fails.

I don't even mind doing this manually because these VM's are fairly static in nature and don't really change data that often.

Just curious what options I might have - been searching for answers but thought this might be easier (FYI - very new to the VM environment)

Thanks,

James

Just updated to Fusion 10.0.1 and I'm trying to setup a High Sierra Guest on my Sierra machine. On installation I get an error stating that it's "Unable to create the installation medium".

I recall seeing something similar with Fusion 8 and the Sierra developer previews, but as High Sierra is apparently supported as I guest I'm surprised that I'm getting this error.

How do you install a High Sierra Guest, before I installed a Sierra Guest and then upgraded but surely that should no longer be necessary.

Has anyone successfully installed the OneDrive for Business Client in a non-persistent VDI environment?  I'm looking for a procedure to get this working.

I see statements from Microsoft about it being not supported, but I also see blogs and products that appear redirect the OneDrive Offline Sync capability to symbolic link or VHD container.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

We have four esx v4.0 hosts and a vcenter server on 2003.  Been running 7 years so it's time to retire.

The vm's are already on a new Equalogic iSCSI array.

I know I can't vmotion between the different hardware platforms, and vcenter server 6.0 won't manage ESXi 4.0 anyway.

If I bring up four new 6.0 hosts and a new vcenter server, I'm thinking I can shut down a vm, remove it from the 4.0 inventory, and add it to the 6.0 cluster.  Then boot it up.

Would this work?

In vSphere 6.7, I want to delete a folder in datastore, but the delete button is disabled.

I guessed that non-emty folders won't be deleted. However, after deleting files inside the folder, still I can not remove the folder.

Please see the picture below.

We did a really nice migration from a Windows VCenter 6.5 U3 to a VCSA 6.7 U1 in the last week. In the first place everything seems to work fine and the vast majority of functions is working fine.

Unless there is a slight error concerning the Web Client (Flash) and we can´t get any clue. every time we authenticate to the Web Client we get the internal error #1069 and if we do not want to reload the web client it is working as designed.

Our first clue was we have a damaged plugin or incompatible one, and we have to remove it:

I have setup a vCD 10.0 instance and want to configure the system for the first time (Steps like adding system administrator/Connection a vCenter etc).
