Hi, is there some easy way how to shut down vmware ESXi host? We have same apc smart 1500 and I passed usb port into one virtual linux, so it can monitor ups state via NUT. So how can i make esx server avare of low battery? Maybe using vsphere-cli utils? With regards Libor -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Hello guys, I have a couple of servers that I'm about to virtualize to our VMware Vsphere ecosystem. For Linux servers I read that one needs to use the stand-alone converter (which is a live-cd that you boot from it and then you point it to your destination ESX). I would like to know from folks that have already done so...what was your experience like? Did everything went smooth? Any

Hi, I try to install a VMware VM via virsh with a vmxnet3 network card. Virsh sends me an error : "Insufficient video RAM. The maximum resolution of the virtual machine will be limited to 1176x885. To use the configured maximum resolution of 2560x1600, increase the amount of video RAM allocated to this virtual machine by setting svga.vramSize="16384000" in the virtual

Hi Matt, I was taking a look on v2v to implement vSphere and I have few questions: 1) the converter should be in: Sys::VirtConvert::Converter::VMWare ( or Vsphere) ? 2) What you think if instead to mess up with the xml converter we gonna use a XSL file that take the OVF file and transform it in KVM like xml file ? Cheers, Francesco

How can I compile and run Libvirt-snmp on VMware Vsphere ESXi? Can somebody guide me with step by step procedure. I tried to followed steps mentioned on Libvirt Website <https://libvirt.org/compiling.html> but I guess they are for Linux distribution. Because I could not execute ./configure command. After searching on Google I found a similar question

Dear NUT users, I recently came across an interesting effort to integrate NUT with WMware ESXI, made by Ren? Garcia. This is still rough and young, but already providing a good support: http://www.networkupstools.org/download.html#_virtualization_packages We will work jointly in the coming months, Ren?, Aur?lien (from Eaton) and myself, with the support from Eaton (which is a VMware partner),

Starting from libguestfs/virt-v2v 1.39.12, virt-v2v attempts to uninstall the VMware tools from Windows guests, so there is no need to remove them manually before the conversion.

Does Enterprise Puppet use VSphere SDK API to deploy VMware VM? If not, what does it use?

Has anyone else seen this on Centos 6.x x64? Running vSphere 5.0 and I install tools from the VMware tar.gz file with ' vmware-install-tools.pl -d' it seems to do all the usual/right things. Once completed there is no 'vmware-tools' listed in 'chkconfig --list'. A reboot of the box leaves vmware tools not running. I have tried completely uninstalling tools and

Hello, I'm trying to use the tool virsh of libvirt. I want to manage via CLI a vm on a vmware hypervisor which is hosted on a remote host (Is that what you call the node??). I read a lot of thing on your site but I really don't understand how to do something... I saw that: >virsh edit $your-vm-name I think "$your-vm-name" is the xml file you're talking about? Is it

Hello listmates, I have encountered a rather peculiar situation. We have a Centos 6 VM (64 bit) running on a VMware vSphere 5.5 server. It was running just fine until one day I decided to reboot it and it just would not boot up. Effectively, dracut failed to initialize the LVM, much like under the scenario described here:

I am working toward pitching a move from Open Source Puppet to Puppet Enterprise. One of the driving points is that Where-I-Work has just made a huge investment in hardware/software in the form of a VMWare "local cloud". In trying to figure out how to plug my current Puppet setup into it, I keep hitting references to middleware tools like "vSphere CLI for Linux" and
