Net.TeamPolicyUpDelay Setting Does Not Working For ESXi 6.7

Hi. My Name Jinsik KIM.

Net.TeamPolicyUpDelay Setting Does Not Working For ESXi 6.7

The application environment is like this.

 

[Version]

VxRAIL : 4.7.300

vCenter : 6.7.0.40000

ESXi : 6.7.0, 14320388

vSAN : 6.7.0 14328953

 

[Question]

In a configuration that works with Big Switch Cloud Fabric,
In accordance with the recommendation, the Net.TeamPolicyUpdelay setting was changed from the default value of 100ms to 30000ms.
After redundancy link is restored, it should have 30000ms of delay but is applied as 100ms, causing ping loss. (Configuration that does not cause ping loss when having linkage with BCF)
In ESXi 6.5, Net.TeamPolicyUpdelay works as set.
In ESXi 6.7, even if you changed the setting, you had to have a delay (30000 ms) at the time you set, but it did not work.

Virtual machine on VMware ESXi crashes/switches off once a week

Hallo!

 

I'm running ESXi 6.7.0 Update 3 (Build 15820472) on a Intel NUC NUC8i7BEH with 64GB and 3 virtual machines (2 windows and one ubuntu).

ESXi is rock solid and so are two of the virtual machines.

 

One of them (a Windows Server 2019 domain controller) is switching off (or crashing?) (nearly exact) once a week.

This virtual machine is running directly on a built in NVMe SSD.

Any ideas where i can start from?

Someone had this before?

 

Thank you!

Can I use USB ethernet adapters?

Hello everyone.

 

Recently, i've installed ESXi 6.7 U3 on a 'Macmini5,3' from Apple (Mac mini server 2011, Sandy Bridge)

This is for home lab use.  I appreciate this is not a system which is officially supported, but it installed and it works great.

 

Under manage>hardware it recognizes the hardware as actually being macbookpro8,2 (which is also i7 sandy bridge from the same year)

 

The mac mini has 4 x USB 2.0 ports and 1 x Thunderbolt 1 port.  My options are purchasing USB to gigabit ethernet adapters or possibly thunderbolt to ethernet if supported.

 

Can I use one or several USB or Thunderbolt ethernet adapters, and if so which chipsets are likely to work?

Is the hardware detection differences likely to give me problems?

 

I should point out I was unable to install 7.0 as it doesn't recognize the on-board ethernet due to the tg3 driver.

 

Thanks

Hello guys,

 

 

We had a problem with one of our 4 esxi hosts and were forced to reboot it. After that we tryed to check the logs and realizied its still configured to [] /scratch/log so we tryed to change it so if the provlem occure again we can check the log.

 

 

We created a folder in the ds01 named .Logs and changed the setting Syslog.global.LogDir to [ds01]/.Logs there is a little red marker in the corner and when we try to set it we just get generel system error.

 

 

via cli we jsut get not possible check the error code and there is none.

 

We are running on an HPE dl380 gen9 with the latest custom image and all patches.

 

anyone has an idea what could be the problem here

Does ESXi support VROC

I have an Intel server with 4 NVMe in a RAID 10 using VROC. When I load into VMWare ESXi and try to create a datastore, the drives are all listed separately, without my VMD. Are there drivers I need to load, or is this not possible because of the way VROC is designed?

I want to notify CIM Indications by snmp trap

I set hwsrc to indication in the snmp settings on ESXi 6.7 and 7.0. However, snmp traps weren't send to a snmp manager. I was able to send a test trap by running the following the command.

 

# esxcli system snmp test

 

Therefore, I think that the indication has not been notified. Is there any setting that enables Indication?

ESXi 6.7 licensing model

Hello All,

 

I have 1 physical server with 2 physical processors both having 8 cores. I have installed ESXi 6.7 with the license provided. I have a vm that requires 32 vCPU's and this machine will not run because the max vCPU with the current license is 8. I understand that I would need to purchase some licensing so I can run this VM; however, it is not very clear as to what I will need to purchase. Possibly a vsphere license? but no clue on how many? Like I said above I have 1 vm on this box will only every have 1 with no plans on adding more. If anyone can help me unmuddy the vmware licensing waters a little I would be very grateful.

 

Thanks,

Scott

Hi guys,

Can I execute a downgrade from version 7.0 to 6.7 using cli, without I need reinstalling ESXI locally?

I have a Vcenter license on 6.X version and need integrating this new Host.

 

I tried command below but I saw a error:

 

[-----:~]  esxcli software profile update --depot /xxxx/xxxx/xxxx/ESXI-version-offline-bundle/ESXi670-201912001.zip --profile=ESXi-6.7.0-20191201001s-standard --allow-downgrades

[DowngradeError]

Downgrade ESXi from version 7.0 to 6.7 is not supported.

Please refer to the log file for more details.

Enabling Secure Boot on existing ESXi hosts?

I am running 6.7u2 vCenter and ESXi hosts.  have a HP G10 server and when I last updated the SPP(firmware) it came back and flagged secure boot not being enabled as a security problem.  VMWare seemed to pick up on that as well after that.

 

I have read that secure boot is support by VMWare since 6.5 so I was going to enable it as long as I do not have to reinstall my OS, etc.  Has anyone ever had any issues simply enabling secure boot on a disk(actually flash) that already has ESXi installed?

ESXi into production: Configuration replication and automated activation

Hi all!!! 

 

I am considering ESXi for a virtualization solution (I havent tested it yet) and I have some concerns on how to take it into production level before actually trying to use it:

 

- Once I configure ESXi on a real equipment, how do I streamline that configuration and installation? Is it possible to create an image or something similar to install it on the factory?

- How could ESXi license activation be automated (at factory) if  every equipment has with its own ESXi?

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,

I'm here cause of a problem to run my esxi host.

I modified things in the web client: I enabled passthough  on some devices, especially Nics.

Now when I reboot, I get errors such no compatible adapter found.

I followed instructions in this topic:EXSI 6.5 No compatible network adapter found

The problem is that after I modified the esx.conf file, and after reboot, all modifications are lost.

even SSH activated before accessing shell commands, it becomes disabled after reboot.

I have an HP Dl360 Gen8 with a custom Exsi istalled.

Someone have an Idea? I have all server and VMs down.

Thank you in advance.

Can't manage ESXi 6.7 from different subnet

May 29, 2020, 10:33 am
$
0
0

I had a standalone ESXi 6.7 host operating fine.  I needed to put it on a different subnet on the same physical switch.  The switch is layer 3 with multiple VLANs.  I changed the IP address and default gateway of the ESXi host and put it on the new VLAN, and now I cannot manage it with either the web interface or SSH.  I can ping it just fine, and I can manage it if I plug a computer into the same VLAN, but I cannot manage it from a different VLAN.

 

I remember running into this a few years ago, and it was a setting that blocked management from other VLANs by default, but after a few years I cannot remember what that setting was.  I tried everything I can think of, and I've rebooted the host, but still no luck.

 

EDIT:  I forgot to mention that when I try to connect over the web interface from the remote subnet, I don't get a timeout, instead I get a connection reset.  The ESXi host is sending a reset to my client.

 

Can anyone help with this?

 

Thanks

 

On a side note, I want to point out that it seems kind of dumb to me that ESXi won't allow you to change the default gateway first, then change the IP address.  It would only allow me to change the gateway after changing the IP address.  The problem with this is once I change the IP address, then the gateway is set for a different subnet and I can no longer reach the host remotely.  If I could change the gateway first, it wouldn't matter since it's originally on the same subnet, and then I could change the IP address afterwards, but VMware won't allow me to do it this way, which seems to me the much more sensible way.  I just wanted to mention how bad I feel that design is, in case someone from VMware reads this.

How can I remove performance caps from SCP on ESXi hosts?

May 29, 2020, 6:18 am

I have several Mac Pro 6,1 systems running 6.7u3 fully patched and I'd really like to be able to SCP the contents of VM directories off of these servers at a decent speed.  My scenario is to copy the contents onto an encrypted APFS formatted SSD attached to a macOS machine so that I can transport VM's to another site.  There appears to be an artificial cap on SCP performance, as even on a complete unloaded 12 core Xeon machine, it is not possible to get anywhere near line speed on 10Gbe - really it is more like a bit under 1Gb/s.  I googled around and found occasional questions about this but no real satisfactory answer so I figured I'd try here.

 

As an alternative I tried the the download from server feature in Fusion Pro.  It is is completely broken for downloading macOS VM's.  It is glacially slow regardless of whether you're moving a macOS VM or Windows or Linux VM, so it does not solve my problem.  It also breaks macOS VM's so they no longer work if you then upload them back to an ESXi host.

 

For bonus points, I'd love to do this without converting thin provisioned disks to thick but I will definitely accept that hit if I can move 1000MB/s instead of somewhere around 100.
