Single node vSAN cluster boot error after upgrade from 6.5 to 6.7

Hi,

 

I have single node vSAN cluster used as a homelab for many nested environments. I upgraded ESXi 6.5 to 6.7 without any issues. I noticed that during boot there is error recovery progress - see attached photo.

I found as well something related in logs

After boot ESXi is ok, vSAN status looks good.

Disk Consolidation Fails with File Too Large

$

We are running ESXi 6.0.0 7967664 and our backup solution is Avamar. Recently during backups we started getting the error "....disk consolidation failed..." on one VM. If I try to manually consolidate the snapshots (all created by the backup solution) the error is "Consolidation failed for disk node 'scsi0:5': 27 (File Too Large)".

 

The relevant VMDK is 400 GB and there is over 1 TB of free space on the data store. There are several xxxxx-00000x.vmdk and respective ctk.vmdk files totaling about 200 GB in that disk's folder in the data store. (I assume new ones get created with each backup attempt.)

 

When I try to research the issue I getting a lot of stuff regarding locked files. I'm not actually seeing anything about locked files in the vCenter Tasks log.

 

Any ideas for resolving this? Do I need to look at other logs to get a better idea? Is the "file too large" error misleading?

 

Thanks.

it would be useful to see the latest vmware.log
preferably from a run when you received the error you mentioned.

Windows 10 activation issue after backup restoration

Due to the hardware change on a Mac (HD replacement for a SSD) and backup restoration, Windows 10 does not recognize the digital license obtained during a Windows 8.1 free upgrade. Does anyone had the same or similar problem and can please help me?

 

I thank you in advance.

This would seem to be a question better asked on a Windows 10/Microsoft forum and not a VMware one.

If you are doing a hardware update from the GUI you have the option to select to upgrade on reboot.  What this is doing is looking for a reboot to exectute and then instead it powers it down, upgrades, and powers it up.  Is there a way to tie into this so I can use this process for something else.  Basically I want it to monitor for a reboot, then power off, run my custom instance, then power back on.  This way I can tie an update to a scheduled reboot for patches.

Re: vcsa lost connectivity to all esxi hosts

esxi = 6.5.0 (Build 5310538)

vcsa = 6.5 build 5973321

vcsa is timing out trying to access license


Re: Determining the VMtools version the ESXi publishes?

So knowing the ESXi build is only good to determine the minimum version of the VMTools, no?

Say I have a ESXi version 6.5, according to the list, the minimum version of VMTools would be 10252 (10.0.12 ), correct?

 

However, what if some other person from my company comes and put a 10272 (10.1.0) ISO there instead, how will I know that this is the version he put?

Look at your ESXi hosts directly. What license is applied?

Any resyncing components? My guess is that there may be a rebalance operation going on.

There's not really such thing as a "minimum version" only "this is the version that ships with that build".

 

Say I have a ESXi version 6.5, according to the list, the minimum version of VMTools would be 10252 (10.0.12 ), correct?

See answer to above question. You'd need to look at the build of that version to determine what's the closest earlier build that has a corresponding VMware tools version.

 

However, what if some other person from my company comes and put a 10272 (10.1.0) ISO there instead, how will I know that this is the version he put?

You'd need to look at the ISO to see that version as far as I know. Why is this a chief concern of yours?

not sure if that is what you are asking for but that is an example from one of the esxi hosts

migrate a server between two esxi hosts without shutdown of the server?

Is there any way to migrate a server between two host without shutdown of the server? The two esxi hosts have no shared storage and they run version 6u2. Any advice on this?

Thank you very much,

I should have specified that vcsa vm is on one esxi host and pfsense is on a different esxi host

Re: migrate a server between two esxi hosts without shutdown of the server?

What's required to do this, is at least Essentials Plus licensing. This will allow to "Change both, host and storage", i.e. allow live migration without shared storage.

Thanks for the reply. I've attached a snip of the log from the relevant time period.

QueryNetConfig bug?

$
0
0

Hey guys,

 

I am calling the QueryNetConfig method on a HostSystem object to determine which vNic is assigned to the mgmt. network. If I connect with my account to vCenter and run the command it works fine. If I connect with a different account (service account in my testing with the exact same privileges and access) I get an error "Permission to perform this operation was denied."

 

Here is the sample of code I am executing:

 

(Get-View-Id$VMHost.ConfigManager.VirtualNicManager).QueryNetConfig('management').SelectedVnic

 

Response: management.key-vim.host.VirtualNic-vmk0

 

Here are the error details when running the code with different account.

Re: Is it possible to utilize more than 16 threads in VM workstation?

Hi,

 

Not the answer you are looking for but VMware does have other products where you can utilize higher core counts.

 

In vSphere 6.0 the maximum limit of vCPUs in a VM is 128.

 

https://www.vmware.com/pdf/vsphere6/r60/vsphere-60-configuration-maximums.pdf

 

The problem with workstation is that it runs on a host OS and uses the CPU scheduler of that host OS, so it is not as ideal an environment for using a high number of CPUs for a single VM as with vSphere.
