In this document, we'll look at all the steps needed to be able to monitor an ESXi host, we will see the most common parameters and the values that we can obtain to have a controlled environment thanks to Nagios and Centreon! All the information we can obtain is amazing! In other documents we will see other information that we can obtain from vCenter and its VMs, Today the hosts are playing!
In this document we will be able to follow the steps that will allow us to update our ESXi host to the latest version, the 6.5. See 3 Upgrade Options, A first, Surely the most used by everyone, which is through a package that allows us to update offline, by command line in the fastest way; a second way that is similar to the previous one but online, downloading the updater directly from the VMware website and finally the traditional, The simplest, which is via CD, USB or iLO!
The other day I was reading a healthy debate between fellow bloggers on LinkedIn, And it's true, few of us think of programming certain curious tasks such as this one. While it's interesting to back up our ESXi setup… Why don't we schedule it? I leave you a couple of options that will surely fit you to have updated backups of the ESXi configuration.
I leave you this post because a client has asked me to do it on several occasions and so I leave it for you 😉 too If we need to expand a virtual hard drive (Vhd) that is shared across multiple virtual machines, typically for cluster use, we will remember that we have the SCSI controller in Bus Sharing and that the disk is created in Eager Zeroed! We will follow these steps to expand this album.
In this document, we'll look at an easy way to upgrade a VMware ESXi host to the new version 6, We will upgrade the host in-place, First with the local media (DVD/USB) and graphic installation, then using CLI remotely with the depot file and we will finalize the document seeing how to revert the update if necessary!
Continuing to upgrade your environment to vSphere 5.5 with Update Manager, after upgrading vCenter Server and other components, the next step will be the upgrade of the ESXi hosts to the version 5.5. As we saw in a previous document, we can also perform the update manually. We will be able to directly migrate the ESX 4.x to ESXi 5.5 or upgrade the ESXi 4.x or 5.x directly.
In this scenario, we will update a VMware vSphere environment 5.1 to the latest version manually, without Update Manager, we will first update our vCenter Server Appliance to the new version, then the ESXi hosts and finally the virtual machines. If we want to know what's new in vSphere 5.5, We have them here!
Good morning everyone! today we will give a talk for the community of VMware Galicia users in Santiago de Compostela; where we will compare different hypervisors and see a little about their differences or their evolutions. I wanted to share the presentation with you all, I leave you a PDF link to read and another with the presentation as such (for Windows or Mac). By the way, I share the presentation with the crack Miguel Angel Alonso of JMG!!!
vCenter Multi-Hypervisor Manager is an add-on that installs on our vSphere infrastructure to centrally manage heterogeneous environments with Hyper-V and ESXi servers, being able to perform basic tasks on Hyper-V VMs with our vSphere client,
Whenever we are going to deploy the VMware ESXi hypervisor we have to take into account that we have the necessary drivers when installing it, To do this, we must generate a custom image to which we will add these plugins/drivers in order to perform a correct installation.
