This is a free and quite convenient utility to manage our VMware Infrastructure virtual environment. Through SNMP it will pass us basic information about the virtual machines that each ESX server has. It will give us information about the CPU used, RAM used as your network traffic (Tx & Rx).
Vtools is ideal for managing our VMware Infrastructure-based virtual environment, or what is the same, for VMware VirtualCenter or VMware ESX server, only supports version 2.x of VirtualCenter and 3.x of lost host ESX. With this free tool, we can manage generic information about virtual machines, your virtual CPU's, your virtual RAM, Your Virtual Hard Drives, Your Virtual Networks, your virtual CD drives, Virtual floppy drives, Snapshots and the most important thing for me, The status of VMware Tools!!! So we can both disconnect CD drives or floppy drives and update the VMware Tools together!!
This document shows certain configurations that should be taken into account if we try to virtualize Citrix XenApp (o Citrix Presentation Server) at VMware ESX.
In this document, we'll look at how to connect an ESX server to a shared storage system, for this we will use an Openfiler NAS, using iSCSI. To configure this document, it is assumed that we already have an Openfiler server installed and with a volume created of the iSCSI type to be able to use HA or DRS with VMotion. And of course a virtual network connection that allows VMotion.
In this document we will explain how we will connect this SAN to ESX servers, the logical thing is that we have an MSA with two controllers (otherwise, It doesn't make much sense to invest so much, if we don't have redundancy in controllers), as well as two fiber switches on the back to have redundancy at the switch level as well. And on each ESX server we will place a couple of fiber optic HBA's, to which we will connect each HBA to a fiber switch to have a high availability system.
This document shows how to extend the VMware ESX partition. If for whatever reason we want to expand a LUN and this LUN is the shared storage of our VMware ESX servers, we must extend the VMFS partition by following these steps. In any case, it is not advisable to do so, it is always preferable to create a new LUN with the available free size. But if necessary, here we have how to do it. Even so, for it to extend correctly, it is advisable to stop the virtual machines that are running on this LUN (By experience).
One of the advantages of VMware is that we can expand the hard disks of virtual machines easily and whenever we have space available. To do this, it can be done in two ways, either by command or by GUI.
VMWare ESX es un sistema operativo de VMWare basado en Linux, que nos sirve para ahorrarnos el tener un sistema operativo corriendo en un servidor y luego alojar las maquinas virtuales ahi, por muchísimas razones es una gran herramienta. Nos ahorra tener una licencia de W2003 en el servidor (For example), nos da más recursos, ya que el sistema operativo los consumiría y este casi no, es una distribución bastante ligerita de linux, y directamente por que nos deja personalizar las maquinas virtuales con muchas opciones.
This document will show the installation of an ESX server version 3.5, Designed solely and exclusively for system virtualization.
This document will show how to upgrade an outdated version of ESX to the recent version 3.5 of ESX, Any of these versions could be perfectly upgradeable: ESX 2.1, ESX 2.1.1, ESX 2.1.2, ESX 2.5, ESX 2.5.1, ESX 2.5.2, ESX 2.5.3, ESX 2.5.4, ESX 2.5.5, ESX 3.0, ESX 3.0.1 or ESX 3.02.
