In this document, we'll look at the first step of migrating to VMware vSphere 6, we will update our vCenter server, in this case we will update the Linux-based appliance that we have in our organization (VCSA), which must be a version 5.1 U3 or 5.5. We'll follow these simple steps to update you to the 6.
Well, Another way to upgrade to the vSphere version 5.5 will be to upgrade our vCenter Server (Windows-based), later we will update Update Manager and with it the hosts in an orderly way (to put an end to VMTools in virtual machines and raise vHD if interested). This is usually found in somewhat more complex environments, where neither vCSA nor update management is used.
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!
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 procedure explains how to set up a VirtualCenter to manage our Virtual Infrastructure, with it ESX servers and their virtual machines, for this we need a server that has the VirtualCenter Server, we will connect with the customer: “VMware Virtual Infrastructure Client” and from there we will manage everything.
This document explains how to configure the network of an ESX server 3.5, via a virtual switch, which is to create virtual networks, to connect virtual machines to each other, or that they are routed, or for HA use or administration . It is assumed that a host supports at most 4 NICs, In my case it will be a server with two network connections. The ideal is to have everything redundant, in case one interface goes down, the other has the same connections, or else, to split traffic and have VM traffic go through a NIC (x example). We have three types of connections to set up:
En este documento veremos cómo podemos usar el VirtualCenter 2.5 de VMware para poder crear una plantilla de una máquina virtual ya existente y cómo generar de esta plantilla diferentes máquinas virtuales.
En este documento veremos cómo podemos configurar VirtualCenter para poder acceder con diferentes cuentas de usuario y cada cuenta de usuario tenga diferentes tipos de permisos. Es ideal para no tener que dar por supuesto la cuenta de Administrador a nadie, por si tenemos algún becario encargado de encender máquinas virtuales, que sólo pueda hacer eso, si tenemos un departamento encargado de revisar LOG’s o crear MV’s que sólo puedan hacer eso y nada más.
En este documento sólo veremos el proceso de instalación del VirtualCenter de VMware, The version 2.5. Definición: VMware VirtualCenter es un software de administración de infraestructura virtual. Crea un centro de datos que responde con mayor rapidez y seguridad tareas de configuración, asignación de aplicaciones, servicios y servidores virtuales. Este software permite provisionamiento instantáneo de servidores, disminuye el paradas de los usuarios y optimiza el centro de datos.
En este documento se muestra algo muy importante y totalmente necesario cómo es configurar la hora y el tiempo en un servidor ESX, ya que normalmente si no se configura nada, las máquinas virtuales cogen la hora del host y si esta no está configurada…
