Hi everyone,
I am planning to deploy VMware Integrated OpenStack in a Production environment, but I need in a first time kind of POC (Proof of concept) deployment. So, can you help me to set an architecture that will allow me to do this with a minimum requirements by proposing me some tracks like combining Edge and Management Clusters .. and editing the omjs.properties file to eliminate some redundancy in services/Openstack VMs .

 

Thank you in advance

Hello,

 

We use vCenter 6.0, 3634793.

 

We have multiple VMs running Windows 2008 and windows 2012 servers.

 

Whenever we upgrade Windows 2008 to windows 2012 or upgrade windows 2012 to 2012 R2, that Vms become too much unresponsive and slow.

 

Kindly let me know if this is a Bug.

 

We have tried to update the NIc card and even added new NICs. Still we have same issue.

 

If this is not supported, kindly give me tech article.

VM are working slowly

$

Hello everyone,

 

Since a few days my VMs are working slowly, I can no longer use them to work because every software take too much time to open.

 

Everything was working fine, I don't installed any other software, all I can remember is a Windows 10 update my PC made by itself on friday 24th March. (I'm running W10 pro Version  10.0.14393)

 

Since that day all my VMs are too slow to be used, i tried to give more memory or cores to each one but it don't change anything. I made the latest updates from VMW so now i use Workstation 12 pro 12.5.5 build-5234757, I'm running VMs with Windows XP and Windows 7 for work. I often make copies of my VMs, so I tried to run one I made in November 2016 which were working fine, and I have the same problem with it.

 

A colleague is also having the same kind of problem with his Workstation 11.

 

Does anybody running W10 on the host system is having trouble since an update lately ?

Trying to deinstall VM Workstation, get The MSI '' failed. - The folder path 'Virtual Machines' contains an invalid character.

I was trying to create snapshot in VM workstation, keep getting "Error taking snapshot: One of the parameters supplied is invalid". this happens on all VMs - So I thought it must be something common to all the VMs, i.e. the installed VM workstation code so trying deinstall Workstation prior to reinstallation, but keep getting:

 

The MSI '' failed. -

The folder path 'Virtual Machines' contains an invalid character.

 

Googling around returned nothing - have you got any ideas?


SSO Issue with C# .Net

$

I am trying to get my app to use the Web Services SDK with C# .NET and having issues with SSO. Using Holder of Key User Credentials authentication and following the LoginByToken example in the SDK document zip file.

 

It keeps failing with a "signingKey is not loaded" exception in the "VMware.Binding.WsTrust" namespace Utilities class and ComputeSignature method.. I exported the Root certificates from vCenter and loaded them in my workstations Trusted Certificate store.

 

In the sample doc SamlTokenHelper class and GetCertificate method, I am loading the exported root certificate (.cer file) successfully. It is not returning a private key though which I think is the issue. Here is the GetCertificate method I am implementing:

 

         public static X509Certificate2 GetCertificate(
        {
            string workingDirectory = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory;
            X509Certificate2 signingCertificate = new X509Certificate2();

            string certificateFile = workingDirectory + "\\Cert\\" + ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["PfxCertificateFile"];

            signingCertificate.Import(certificateFile, "", X509KeyStorageFlags.MachineKeySet);

            return signingCertificate;

        }

 

Mostly used what was in the sample application, just modified the certificate file path. I do notice in the import() method call, the sample is not specifying a private key password. In the WsTrustClientMessageInspector class, it is calling the ComputeSignature method and passing the private key as one of the parameters which is null in my case.

 

                // Compute the signature on the timestamp and body elements.

                var signature = Util.ComputeSignature(soapRequest, keyIdentifier, _certificateToken.Certificate.PrivateKey, bodyId, wsSecurityHeader.Timestamp.Id);

 

I know cer files don't store the private key and need to use pfx files, however, that is not an option if I try to export the root certs from MMC.

 

I very well may not be understanding what cert to use or something along the lines.

 

Anyone have any input?

Are there any considerations to be aware of?  Should different disk controllers be used?  It seems to be supported as there's VSAN Ready nodes with a mix of SAS and SATA but wanted to see if there's any gotchas or anything else to be mindful of when mixing drive types.

 

The config will be:

 

qty 8 - 960GB Solid State Drive SAS Mix Use MLC 2.5in Hot-plug Drive

 

qty 16 - 3.84TB Solid State Drive SATA Read Intensive TLC 6Gbps 2.5in Hot-plug Drive

Audio not working on Windows 10 VM after v12.5.4 upgrade

$

I have two, 64-bit Windows 10 Pro VMs running on a Windows 10 Pro host. The host is a Dell Latitude E-6430.

One of the VMs rolled up just fine, but the other is throwing errors regarding the audio controller. The speaker icon in the system tray is marked with a red X. When clicked, Windows attempts to repair the error and fails. Device Manager does not show an entry for Sound, Video, and Game Controllers like the 'good' VM does, but rather an entry for Other Devices where the Multimedia Audio Controller is shown with a yellow triangle and the device status is listed as Code 28, "The drivers for this device are not installed".

 

I've rerun the VMWare tools update; first Repair, then Modify where I removed the device from both Device Manager and VMWare, rebooted, reinstalled, and the condition persists. I've tried manually installing the driver, but that fails with the message "The installation failed because a function driver was not specified for this device instance". References for this type of error harken back to Win XP and Vista days; I've tried what I've seen but nothing has worked so far.

 

Can anyone offer any sage advice?

 

Kind regards,

VMware “Unable to connect to the MKS: Login (username/password) incorrect.” after Upgrade

$

On my home's local network, I have a computer that hosts a VM server using VMware Workstation. Sometimes, my dad needs to use a virtual machine, but since his computer is not powerful enough to handle hosting a VM, I set up his computer with VMware Workstation so that he could connect to mine and use it as the host. This worked fine until today when I upgraded both his computer and mine from VMware Workstation 12.5 to VMware Workstation 12.5.1. Now, whenever he attempts to connect to the virtual machine's display after starting it, VMware freezes for several seconds before displaying an error message stating that VMware is, "Unable to connect to the MKS: Login (username/password) incorrect."

Whenever I first set this configuration up, I had this issue, and resolved it by allow incoming traffic on TCP ports 902 and 903 on the hosting machine as was suggested on this webpage. After the upgrade, the exceptions that I added to my firewall seemed to have been removed, so I added them back, and restarted both computers. Even after this, however, the problem is still occurring.

I went as far as doing a complete uninstall and reinstall of VMware on my dad's computer, using Revo to remove leftover files, but even this did not resolve the issue.

Does anyone have any idea what could be the problem? One thing that is worth noting is that I tried using telnet to determine if my dad's computer could "see" ports 902 and 903. The connection to port 902 worked just fine, but an attempt at connecting to 903 failed. This also happened whenever I tried to telnet to ports 902 and 903 on the host machine. I do not know if the issue with port 903 not connecting existed before because when I first set this up, I did not have the need to check the ports with telnet.

Note: I originally posted this on SuperUser but the lack of response combined with the urgency of the situation has made it necessary for me to seek assistance elsewhere.

ESXI 6.5 GPU Passthrough Quadro Host Rebooting

$

Hi All,

 

We are trying to get lab environment to test GPU Roughcast to VM's working before going live.

 

I have built a HP DL380 G8 server which is fully up to date with bios patches/firmware etc. I have installed ESXI 6.5.0 as the host OS and under this we have a Windows VM running windows 10 fully up to date inc anniversary update.

 

I have created a pass-through for the Nvidia Quadro K2200 graphics card installed on the server and all is working fine from a VM point of view it sees the card all drives installed and works perfectly for our use.

 

The issue I have is if the VM runs for a few days and then we reboot (long term plan is scheduled reboots at night). The host goes into a complete panic and reboot's itself before the VM has even had a chance to shutdown obviously something is not right with the config.

 

I have done lots of research and have tried playing with various settings etc to try and make it stable for reboots but cannot seem to make it work. I have tried 6 initially and then went to 6.5 off the back of a forum post regarding instability on v6 which I did see during setup not just at reboot stage however 6.5 seems much better other than reboot.

 

Really after any advice from anyone which has tried to do the same on things for me to check.

 

Log files are not really giving me much around the reboot time it's like it simply stops dead.

 

I have passed the audio device through to the VM however on 6.5 it looks like you have to do this as it is a dependent (which was different from 6.0).

 

we are looking to try and use this in production come January next year so would love to iron out the kinks before we shell out for a live system as I cannot have it rebooting like this when live.

 

few forum posts suggest going back to 5.5 with the latest updates as this became alot more stable and win 10 is still supported as an OS.

 

I am willing to send log files etc to try and help solve the problem.

 

thanks

 

Lee
