Hi guys,

after I reboot/restart my vCenter appliance (virtual machine) vmware-vpxd won't start and fail within initialization (everytime). After 3 days of researching I have a workaround:

1. ssh into vCenter appliance and run command: ps -ef | grep vpxd

2. here I can see, that there is something locked out - connected with vmware-vpxd service (flock -on ....)

3. run command service-control --stop --all

4. then I kill all processes (with command kill), which are listed as output from command  ps -ef | grep vpxd (connected with vmware-vpxd service)

5. run command service-control --start --all

6. when services are starting I have to type password, which is stored in (/etc/vmware-vpx/embedded_db.cfg) - postgres database password

After this process everything is fine and working, but I don't have an idea how to fix this problem permament. I don't want to do this workaround after every restart. My vCenter version is 6.0.0U3f and my idea was to upgrade to version 6.5.0 (but actually not possible). Any idea, how to fix this problem without migrating to 6.5.0?

Thank you for your answer.

Hello Community,

we have a little strange behaviour on our platform, which might be an configuration issue but we dont know. The behaviour is as follows: We recently integrated a new ESXi Host into our existing vSphere 6.5 VCSA Cluster. Whenever we power on a virtual machine it is being started on exactly this new ESXi-Host. Of course when recently intergrated ressources where free, but now the RAM is 99% and vSphere still decides to power-on a new virtual machine on that host, but there are others with less overall CPU, RAM usage.

This is how we have setup DRS:

Maybe someone has an idea where our configuration fault is, we currently did a manual load-balance by migrating virtual machines and turned DRS Automation to Manual, so virtual machines keep where they where last booted.

Thanks for your help in advance!

Hi, I am not vmware administrator so don't have expert skill to troubleshoot vCenter problem. 

In my lab, there Version:6.0.0.20000 running on Linux built by another person who left.  Recently the / and /storage/log are 100% full.  I have cleared the older logs to reclaim disk space.  Reboot from vcsa console but multiple services cannot come up. 

From service-control --status

Stopped:

vmware-eam (VMware ESX Agent Manager) vmware-invsvc (VMware Inventory Service) vmware-mbcs (VMware Message Bus Configuration Service) vmware-netdumper (VMware vSphere ESXi Dump Collector) vmware-rbd-watchdog (VMware vSphere Auto Deploy Waiter) vmware-sca (VMware Service Control Agent) vmware-vapi-endpoint (VMware vAPI Endpoint) vmware-vdcs (VMware Content Library Service) vmware-vpx-workflow (VMware vCenter Workflow Manager) vmware-vpxd (VMware vCenter Server) vmware-vsm (VMware vService Manager) vsphere-client ()

I checked the logs of different services (vpxd, invsc) but cannot find which services I should focus on first.

I can access <vcenter>:5480 and see SSO domain status is running and overhealth status is good.   Which service is the root cause of the problem that I should focus first?

If the only resolution is to rebuid a new VCSA, how do I get all the managed hosts information from this existing VCSA.  Without access to the web client, I do not have the complete list of managed ESXi hosts. 

Thank you very much for your help.

These are the most common issue while upgrading the vCenter 6.0.x to 6.0.U3D.

Just would like to share my experience in fixing the error.

1. Take a snapshot of the Windows vCenter.

2. Uninstall antivirus & Backup application in windows vCenter.

3. Try the upgrade if you notice the errors "Installation of Vcenter server failed 3010 / VCSServiceManager failed with error code '1603'."

4. verify the pkgmgr-comp-msi.log & %TEMP%\vminst.log and find which service holding the lock.

5. kill the process by using the Microsoft Process Explorer tool.

6. Still, you face the issue, take the back of the C:\Program Files\VMware\vCenter Server\JRE folder and Empty the contents of jre folder except for the these files:

     C:\Program Files\VMware\vCenter Server\jre\bin\libvecsjni.dll

     C:\Program Files\VMware\vCenter Server\jre\lib\ext\vmware-endpoint-certificate-store.jar

7. Re-try upgrade.

Hi all!

I trying to retire an ESX 5.5 machine, so need to copy off the VMs.  When starting the VMware Converter wizard, I enter the source ESX server IP address, username and password.  On the next screen, I select the VM, and click next.  I then get the error "Unable to obtain the lock on virtual disks".

VMWare converter 6.2.0 builds 7348398 and 8466193.

I'm trying to copy a 20gb, thin provisioned (currently 8gb) linux VM from ESX 5.5.0 2068190 to ESX 6.5.0 Update 1 (Build 5969303).  These ESX installations are standalone, use local disks (so no NFS/SCSI luns etc.), and are Dell servers (R510 to R720), with all stock components.  The only things we have changed on both ESX is the IP address and autostart.

Copying all other VMs on the ESX 5.5 works fine using exactly the same process, same source disk to destination, at the same time.  When other VM's finished copying and were removed, this still didn't work.  These VMs were all cloned from a master VM, which was also copied across.

I have tried:

• Properly starting and shutting down the VM multiple times.  When running, the VM functions properly.
• Checked any existence of lock files in the VM's directory when shutdown - none.
• Ran chmod 777 for all files in VM's directory and the directory itself (other posts with this error suggested permissions on NFS - thought it was worth a shot even though this is not NFS)
• Restarted the ESX 5.5 machine, no joy

I can manually copy of the files with no issues, so may have to live with an inflated thin provision disk (or fix it manually), but would be nice to know what this is and why it's only this single machine.  Google and here are not any real help that I can see.

Thanks in advance!

Dear all

Hi

my cluster include 5 esxi host for example one of my vm connection fail now i want to know can i see this error in my esxi log ?

Hi,

I have a vm on esxi that won't boot, error is unable to open the disk '/vmfs/volumes/587633ba-97bcd9ba-83cc-************/***team/****team_0-000004.vmdk'. the vm's files are split into 2 folders on the databank, i don't know why they did this way. The esxi is host on ovh.

I would like to build a new vm from the files, any clean process to do so?

Best regards!

I have recently upgraded to Workstation 14.  In the past I used workstation 12 in conjunction with cisco webex to allow 3rd party vendors to perform programming using a VM. They were able to manipulate all items inside the VM when I shared my screen and gave them mouse and keyboard control. In version 14, I give mouse control to someone in the webex but they cannot interact with anything inside the VM. They can interact with items on the host OS with no problems. Does anyone know if this is some type of bug or if there is some new type of security feature that is not allowing this. My host OS is windows 10 pro and the guest VM is windows 7 pro.

Hi,

currently I0m using the UAG 3.2 only for Horizon external access, this works great.

The UAG does have functionalities to us it as reverse proxy, I already tested this with subsites on a different internal server, it worked.

Now what I would like to do is the following Szenario:

1. Using it as proxy for horizon with URL1 (example: www.test1.com)

2. Using the reverse proxy functionality with URL2 (example: www.test2.com)

I did try to figure out how that could work, unfortunately the UAG seems not to work with host headers, either it always points to the www.test1.com entry page (Horizon) or it does not work.

Any idea?

Thanks, fredy

When  I connected to  the vcenter its not showing vms list after executing (get-vm)

vSphere6.5 でゲストOSを作成する場合、仮想マシンのバージョンはどれを選択するのが最適でしょうか？　（ゲストはwindows server 2016）

Hello-

I am running two vCenters, both 6.7, with each having their own embessed PSC in linked mode.  I have two standalone VRAs in each vCenter.  After registering one of the appliances, I go to create a new site pair.  One of my vCenters already shows up in the "First Site" list.  I enter the info for the second vCenter, accept the cert, but nothing shows up in "Select the vCenter server you want to pair".  I've entered the PSC info for both vCenters to no avail.

Does anyone know if this is a supported configuration?  I am starting to think that linked mode just doesn't work in this sort of setup.  The reason I have two vCenters is for redundancy purposes so I can failover easily if my main vCenter were to go down.  I'm thinking that I might just have to have two separate vCenters managed on their own instead of linked.

Suggestions?

Hello,

where can I find and use below metrics? I tried hosts/vm's but can find these specific metrics. We have vRops 6.6.1 running and according to below documentation it should be present.

Thanks for the help.

Hello.

I have two sites: siteA and siteB with Vcenter on every site.

I want to use Vsphere replication to migrate VMs from siteA to siteB, so I have doubts:

-Should I install VRA on both sites or only on SiteB (remote site)?

-Should I have same version of vcenter and VRA on SiteA and SiteB?

I appreciate your help.

Thank you.

I have created new tenant but Unable to add active directory in Vra 7.3.1.

Hi guys, We have vCenter 6.5 and trying to see if there is a simple way to tell all critical alarms, or all alarms, to send an email?  It looks like normally you have to go through all the alarm definitions and edit each one with an email action?  I do not even see a way to do this in bulk, but let me know if I am missing something. I have 231 alarm definitions, so guessing this needs to go through PowerCLI unless I am missing something simple. Thanks,

I would like to minimize the effort for anyone that needs to access vCenter.  I wish to support IE and Edge (Windows 7 and 10) and require as little as is humanly possible steps to get a stock IE / Edge browser to run HTML5 or Flex client.

So far only Chrome works.  I for one do not like using secondary browsers and that's not going to change.  Besides my own special use case, others just want to open their default browser and access vCenter.  our default browser is IE and now Edge.  So it remains to be seen how we can get this working.

our earlier versions of vcenter seemed to work with EDGE and certainly IE.. but now 6.7 seems to just not work at all.

Any links to how to get this to work?
