Re: NSX Flow Monitoring API issue

Hi MIzo,

I have enabled Flow monitoring via GUI but the get flow API does not work (step 4). My NSX is version 6.2.6 Build 4977495 and I notice it is use Flow API 6.3 syntax. Thanks for this.

The output from GET API:

 

<html>

    <title>NSX Manager</title>

    <body>Invalid Operation</body>

</html>

 

I tried:

https://192.168.0.250/api/2.1/2.1/app/flow/flowstats?contextId=datacenter-2\&flowType=TCP_UDP\&startTime=1493273464\&endTime=1494646469

https://192.168.0.250/api/2.1/2.1/app/flow/flowstats?contextId=datacenter-2\&flowType=TCP_UDP\&startTime=0\&endTime=1494646469

https://192.168.0.250/api/2.1/2.1/app/flow/flowstats?contextId=datacenter-2\&flowType=TCP_UDP\

 

I can see some flow outputs from GUI but not from API.

I attached my datacenter ID from MOB page which shows "datacenter-2" value. Do you have any idea why I got the invalid operation error? Thank you.

Install VMware tools on Centos 6 without Perl.

VMware ESXI 6.5 on a OVH server trying to create a Centos 6 VM - new to ESXI, not new to virtualization.

 

Creating a VM in OVH network requires a custom MAC address, but when I set that in Centos and ifup eth0 I get the error: "device eth0 has different mac address".  A quick Google shows that is resolved by installing VMware tools. 

 

After much trial and error it seems the binary installer doesn't work, I get an error ""host software version may not be compatible", and the compiler version can't run as the minimal Centos I use for VM's does not include perl, and I can't install it as there is no network.  Catch 22.

 

Surely there must be an easy way to do this? Surely a ton of people install Centos-6-minimal in VMware VM's every day?

Re: Get-VIEvent Specific Time Range of a Specific date

The Start and Finish parameters of the Get-VIEvent cmdlet expect a DateTime object as input. The Get-Date cmdlet returns a DateTime object. So, you can use the Get-Date cmdlet to return a specific time. The following command will return all of the events that happened between May 14th 2017 08:23 and 08:28.

 

Get-VIEvent -Start (Get-Date -Day 14 -Month 5 -Year 2017 -Hour 8 -Minute 23) -Finish (Get-Date -Day 14 -Month 5 -Year 2017 -Hour 8 -Minute 28)

$oldGroup = 'domain\oldgroup'

$newGroup = 'domain\newgroup'

 

foreach($esx in Get-VMHost){

    $oldPerm = Get-VIPermission -Entity $esx | where {$_.Principal -eq $oldGroup -and !$_.Propagate}

    New-VIPermission -Entity $esx -Principal $newGroup -Role $oldPerm.Role -Propagate $oldPerm.Propagate -Confirm:$false

    Remove-VIPermission -Permission $oldPerm -Confirm:$false

}

 

 

 

But i am not able to co-relate it to my case

The following PowerCLI command adds the AD group domain\group to the administrators of all of your hosts:

 

Get-VMHost | New-VIPermission -Role Admin -Principal domain\group

Re: VMware tools not downloading

Hi,

 

I already did. Guess I wasn't completely clear.

 

A .tar file is like a zip file, so you have to unpack it.

For that use the 7zip program I linked to.

 

Once you have the plain .exe from the .tar file. You run it, this will create a .iso file.

I can't remember if it puts the .iso already in the VMware Player folder or not.

If it does, then you can just use the "install vmware tools" option in the menu.

 

If it does not, then you have to search your disk for the .iso file it created and attach it via the cdrom to the VM in your Windows 98.

Right, now I understand your question.

 

Blueprints aren't bound to a Reservation. You can constrain them to a given Reservation Policy if you so desire, but the default behaviour is that they can provision to any Reservation that would have access to the underlying template.

vCenter Server 6.5 installation error - Login failed for user 'VCAdmin'. Reason: Could not find a login matching the name provided. Error 18456, Severity 14, State 5

May 14, 2017, 3:08 am

Hi,

 

I am trying to install vCenter Server 6.5 on Windows Server 2008 R2 server. As I intend to use an external SQL database (SQL Server 2012) for vCenter Server inventory, I have a created a SystemDSN on the Windows Server 2008 R2 server, which will host the vCenter Server 6.5. The SQL server 2012 is running on a separate server, however both SQL server and the server which will host vCenter 6.5 are part of the same domain and can ping each other.

 

During the installation process, the installation Wizard throws the below error at the stage where external database credentials are entered.

 

Error encountered while validating external database credentials. Check your settings and try again.

SQL State : 28000

Error : 18456

[SQL Server native client 11.0] [SQL Server] Login failed for user 'VCAdmin'

 

At the same time, below error is logged in the vCenter Server installation log file - vminst.log

 

2017-05-14 00:37:22.564-07:00| vcsInstUtil-4944578| E: DatabaseLoginAndSanityChecks: Unable to connect to DSN 'vCenter'

 

And below error is logged in the SQL Server logs

 

Login failed for user 'VCAdmin'. Reason: Could not find a login matching the name provided. Error 18456, Severity 14, State 5

 

I have already ensured on the following prerequisites

 

1. The Login 'VCAdmin' is created on the SQL Server, under the Security, Login options of the SQL Management Studio

2. The Login 'VCAdmin' has dbowner and public role mapped for both vCenter database and msdb database

3. Under Securables, the 'VCAdmin' Login has been granted 'Connect SQL' permission via an sa Login user. 

4. Under Server roles, the 'VCAdmin' Login has sysadmin server role mapped to it

5. On the server running SQL Server 2012, under the Windows firewall settings, the SQL Server Windows NT 64 bit program is added as one of the allowed programs and features with 'domain' option enabled.

6. In the SQL Management studio, under the security properties of the SQL server, the SQL server and Windows Authentication mode is enabled.

7. The SQL Native client version is 11.0 (Version 2011.110.2100.60), which I believe is an appropriate client for connecting to SQL Server 2012 database

 

 

I have gone through the relevant KB articles and links, but unable to find any solution. Can someone please assist with this issue?

 

 

 

Thanks,

Muks

Hi Lucd,

 

I've configured the script according to my need and it works awesome.

I've used rvtools password encryption feature in 3.9.5 to protect my password as well

 

As rvtools report generation takes time and before the completion of rvtools report generation the sendsmtp got executed

Hence i introduced start -sleep 500 before the smtp code

 

Thanks

Customizing VMware Tools for Linux?

What would I need to modify in order to stick the vmhgfs driver from VMware Tools 10.x (Workstation 12.x) into VMware Tools 9.x (Workstation 11.x)?

 

Alternatively, what would I need to modify in order to stick the Unity mode driver from VMware Tools 9.x into VMware Tools 10.x? The final result will be used on Workstation 11.x, so I don't have to worry about being explicit blocked like in Workstation 12.x, at least.

 

Given that VMware Tools for Linux is a collection of scripts and source code which gets compiled at install time, I'm guessing this should be possible?
