These weeks I had to perform several tasks on a vSphere 4.x infrastructure, One of them was to document and export all its configuration, for this I used VMware vSphere Health Check Report 5.0.2, What is amazing when it comes to making this type of inventories couples therapy los angeles ! Nothing, I publish the two steps that must be done to get a complete report as well as a quick example!
ESX System Analyzer is a virtual appliance that will allow us to obtain detailed reports of our current ESX infrastructure, to see if we could migrate to a vSphere environment 4.1 or 5.0 (with ESXi hosts, Of course). These reports, presented in spreadsheets, show us a full host-level analysis, VMs and datastores,
In this document we will try to see how to upgrade our vCenter server to the vSphere version 5, We will see all the possible ways to get to this new version, all this will logically depend on the environment we have; We can directly upgrade all the modules on the same server or migrate everything to a new server.
This bootloader will allow us, among other of its many features, to boot from USB devices on computers that their BIOS does not support (even in virtual machines, That sometimes we've needed it). It is downloaded in ISO format and we will connect it to the VM at boot.
In this document, I will try to explain how to make advanced use of the Virtual Floppy in a Virtual Machine, either with VMWare Workstation, Server, ESX or ESXi. In the beginning, We will no longer need the use of this support, But we all know, that on certain occasions, The easiest thing would be to take a floppy drive with us 3 1/2 USB on top. With this procedure, We learn how to create an image in .flp with drivers, or a boot floppy disk for later use on the VM.
VMware disks with VMDK format can be mounted on our computer for the task we need, either access your disks at a specific time or directly to make a backup of the contents of the virtual machine. We will be able to achieve this thanks to 'Vmware-Mount'.
This procedure explains a VMware product, called VMware Server. It is software that runs on top of an operating system, usually Windows 2003, VMware Server would be installed on it and virtual machines would run on it. The Bad, that the S.O. base is already consuming resources that could be leveraged by VMs, or we have to pay Microsoft directly for a Windows license 2003 that we won't use for anything, just to have VMware Server installed. The Good, which is totally free and we can have several machines installed and running at the same time, We can manage them remotely with the “VMware Server Console” from any PC on the network, We can run scripts…
This document briefly summarizes the commands that we have available to perform from an MSDOS console or configure them as scheduled tasks. To execute the commands we will do them from the executable “VMware-CMD” that we will have in the directory: “C:Program FilesVMwareVMware Server”.
Something normal in this world of virtualizations is that we are left with a small virtual HD and we need to expand it. So since it's the virtual world, it's easier than having to buy a bigger one, with a simple command we can expand our VMware virtual disks, VMDK.
