A must in any organization is to control and allow access to its servers, regardless of having segmentations with VLANs, or have control through physical firewalls, A good idea is to implement micro-segmentation, or in some cases to simplify, also enable control on the OS's own firewall.
¡Come! Another one of logs please! This time we will see how to exploit the Logs of our beloved VMware vSphere environment, from the vCSA or vCenter Server Appliance we will redirect the logs to Logstash to be processed and stored in Elasticsearch, finally we will be able to visualize them in a more graphic way with Grafana. This way we will understand in real time what is happening or we will be able to have reports with the data of the last 24 hours, week, month… Fully customizable, free…
Well, today it's time for another post about log collection, how to treat them and above all how to visualize them; in this document we will see how to perform the entire process with the VMware ESXi hypervisor logs, treat them with Elastic Stack and finally visualize in Grafana what interests us, such as error logs, Incorrect sign-ins…
This week in A Podcast for IT we have a great chapter where we will continue to advance and learn about different alternatives, on this occasion, we have talked about SDS (Software Defined Storage) and its possibilities, revolving around vSAN.
¡Ole, ole and ole Rigodón! VMware through a fling presents a new version of the ESXi hypervisor, for ARM architectures, What a marvel! In this post we will see something that is not supported (For now), and it's nothing more than how to install ESXi on a Raspberry Pi 4. ¿For what? Then we discussed it.
If we have a vCenter Server Appliance or more commonly known as vCSA server in our organization and we want to know the status of its health and the service it offers… What are we waiting for? In this post you will see all the necessary steps to have the vCSA server fully monitored!
If we want to provide full high availability to a virtual machine, we will enable Fault Tolerance or FT. With FT we will be able to allow a VM in the event of a failure of a host or the storage where it is executed to fall, Don't worry., since the VM is replicated to another host and another datastore. The magic of FT will cause us to only lose a single packet against the VM!
If we want to protect our vCenter Server service, that we know every day is more important; we will be able to take advantage of one of the new features of vSphere 6.5, what is having the vCSA appliance in high availability. In this document, all the steps required to deploy and have HA-protected vCenter Server with VMware vCenter Server High Availability.
Moving on to vSphere Docs 6.5, today we will look at Host Profiles, We'll use them to try to keep our hosts' configuration as similar as possible! We will create a profile based on a model host, and then apply that profile to all hosts in the cluster, With this we will be able to check if all the hosts have the same configuration or if there is a different configuration or that we have forgotten to apply... We will see in this document how to create such a reference profile and we will display it!
Something interesting when we are interested in being a little tidy and we want to have a repository with our OVF images, ISO or virtual machine templates... are Content Libraries. Which are nothing more than spaces where we will leave said content and we can access it from anywhere, This way our entire department will always use the same images and we will avoid leaving traces through the datastores as we have been doing until now.
