SCSI-3 Persistent Reservation (PGR) on virtual server

I have problem with storage virtualization. It looks, that on virtual server (hosted by Hyper-V) there isn't possibility to have a SCSI Persistent Reservation (PGR). Am I right?
Thank you for any help.

Correct. Use iSCSI, Virtual FC or Shared VHDX (see below).
Guest VM Cluster with Hyper-V
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn440540.aspx
Storage options
The following tables lists the storage types that you can use to provide shared storage for a guest cluster.
Storage Type
Description
Shared virtual hard disk
New in Windows Server 2012 R2, you can configure multiple virtual machines to connect to and use a single virtual hard disk (.vhdx) file. Each virtual machine can access the virtual hard disk just like servers
would connect to the same LUN in a storage area network (SAN). For more information, see Deploy a Guest Cluster Using a Shared Virtual Hard Disk.
Virtual Fibre Channel
Introduced in Windows Server 2012, virtual Fibre Channel enables you to connect virtual machines to LUNs on a Fibre Channel SAN. For more information, see Hyper-V
Virtual Fibre Channel Overview.
iSCSI
The iSCSI initiator inside a virtual machine enables you to connect over the network to an iSCSI target. For more information, see iSCSI
Target Block Storage Overview and the blog post Introduction of iSCSI Target
in Windows Server 2012.
Storage requirements depend on the clustered roles that run on the cluster. Most clustered roles use clustered storage, where the storage is available on any cluster node that runs a clustered
role. Examples of clustered storage include Physical Disk resources and Cluster Shared Volumes (CSV). Some roles do not require storage that is managed by the cluster. For example, you can configure Microsoft SQL Server to use availability groups that replicate
the data between nodes. Other clustered roles may use Server Message Block (SMB) shares or Network File System (NFS) shares as data stores that any cluster node can access.
Hope this helped :)
StarWind VSAN [Virtual SAN] clusters Hyper-V without SAS, Fibre Channel, SMB 3.0 or iSCSI, uses Ethernet to mirror internally mounted SATA disks between hosts.

  • MII on virtual server

    Hi all,
    from the Best Practices Guide:
    "MII can be deployed on virtual server as well as physical server configurations because of NetWeaveru2019s virtualization capabilities."
    Does anyone have deployed MII + NWCE and/or UDS on a virtual server?  Maybe the need of memory and network is a concern for this type of app.
    Marcos

    Hi, Jeremy.
    I mean productive use.  On [note 1409608 - Virtualization on Windows|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1409608] I found that all NW Java applications are supported in virtualized environments as in non-virtualized environments, as long the problem isn't related to performance or the hypervisor.  The same note states that some applications, like TREX and MDW, aren't suitable for virtualization since they are resource-intensive, even considering resource reservation on the host. I wonder if MII is this kind of restricted app, since it can do a lot of communication and memory use.

  • SJSW7-Directing virtual server log

    all my virtual server logging are stored in the default directory. I have one instance running, however, I would like to create a separate folder for each virtual server and store their log information in it. I tried configuring a virtual server under log preferences and have both server log and access log boxes checked and the location set but after testing it out, both directories are empty.

    I already applied changes and reboot instance. my virtual server that I'm configuring is "uc.memphis.edu"

  • Need to create a virtual server and give its access to another admin

    Dear Sir,
    I am a new admin and have 5 Blade server "HP ProLiant BL660c Gen8".
    I access these servers through HP enclosure.
    I have to install Hyper-V on server 1 which consisted of the OS windows server 2012 R2 Datacenter edition.
    I created a plan to create 5 Hyper-V VM's on the physical server and I requested the IT department network Admin that I want these 5 VM's to able to connect to each other.
    The network Admin created a Trunking configuration on the physical server and after this setup he provided me Hyper-v node IP address and 5 more IP addresses for the 5 Hyper-v VM's.
    Now it was left to me to Add the Hyper-v role and create 5 VM's.
    While Adding the Hyper-V role, I was asked in the middle of the setup to add the network adapter for
    connecting to external network.
    I went inside the network connection settings and I see one network adapter "Microsoft Multiplexer"
    which had the IP address of the Hyper-V node which was given  to be me by Network Admin.
    Besides this I found following Network Adapter: (Mgmt,Trunk):(Mgmt A, Trunk A);(Mgmt B, Trunk B) =Total
    6 Network Adapter out of which only "Mgmt" was configured with the IP address of the Hyper-v node given by my Network Admin. Remaining all other Network adapters IPV4 configuration
    was unchecked except "Mgmt" 
    So I selected the "Mgmt" connection while Installing the Hyper-v role
    SO I chose this Network connection for adding the Hyper-V role.
    My question: Did I chose the correct Network Adapter.
    After doing this I created a VM-1 and tried to assign the IP address given by the Network Admin. But the network Admin did not provide me the default gateway so I used the deafult gateway according to the IP address and used the last digit as "1"
    like a general installation.
    Now my question is: 1.How can I use this VM to be used as a Virtual server?
    2. I would like to open this VM through my browser by entering the IP address of this VM-1. How can I do this?
    Because I access my physical server through the IP address. SO in the similar way I want to access this VM-1 through the IP address
    OR is there any alternate way to access this VM-1 separately.
    My Requirement: I need to give VM-1 access to another admin to Install his application on it. SO how to give him to access this VM directly?
    This is my main query.
    Waiting for your reply.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Ahmed

    Jawin, Jacob, etc.. are fine for creating COM clients but COM servers is a totally different story. I suspect you'll either have to write your own JNI or get out your C/C++ compiler.

  • How to restart a virtual server in WS7

    Does anybody know host restart a virtual server without restarting the whole instance?
    Thanks.

    you can run 'bin/reconfig' - this will make any changes (that does not require a restart) available to the running server (this includes all virtual servers configured within this server instance) without requiring a restart - i mean without any downtime
    no, there is no way to make dynamic reconfig work only for a single virtual server. but i guess, what you care most is - ability to modify a setting for a virtual server without disturbing other virtual servers - 'bin/reconfig' is probably what u r looking for.

  • File system error while creating a virtual server

    Hi
    I get the following error when I create a virtual server:
    File System Error: Could not create directory /opt/SUNWwbsvr/https-web-content (permission denied)
    The admin server is owned by root but the instance that I want to create should be owned by webservd - like the other instance that is installed.
    this error shows that web server is unable to create a directory under SUNWwbsvr folder. Any hints pls?
    thanks!

    sorry this error is while creating a new server instance - not a new virtual server.

  • Archlinux on Microsoft Virtual Server - installs but doesn't boot

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to sneak Arch into our organization, but as we're very Windows-focussed it may take some time. I thought I would be able to install it as a virtual machine on our Virtual Server, but I haven't had any luck.
    The system seemed to install fine, but when I restart the machine and take out the virtual CD it just sits there with a blank screen, but using 97% CPU.
    Here's how I installed the system:
    Physical machine: Core II Duo 2GHz running Windows Vista 32-bit, with 2GB memory and a 120GB IDE drive.
    1) Setup a virtual machine - it has 256MB memory, and a 100GB dynamically-expanding IDE virtual hard disk.
    2) Attached the Don't Panic 2007.08 BASE ISO to the Virtual Machine, and started her up.
    3) Started the installer with arch ide-legacy. This is because I've run through this install a few times now and without this option it complains that it can't read from /dev/null a lot and that it has trouble writing to VHD.
    4) Did an auto-prepare and selected all of the defaults to partition the virtual hard disk.
    5) Selected all of the base packages and installed them.
    6) Did the "configure system", and left everything as the defaults except setting the root password.
    7) Installed the kernel, again leaving the defaults in the config file.
    8) Installed the bootloader. Last time I used GRUB, but it sat there saying it was installing for over 2 hours. This time I tried LILO and it installed in less than a few seconds.
    After all that was done I exited the installer and did a reboot. Now it sits at 97% CPU usage constantly and shows nothing but a blank screen. Using ALT+F1-F5 shows nothing.
    Microsoft Virtual Server has support for the Red Hat and other distributions so I would have expected ArchLinux to work. Has anyone else had success in getting Arch to run on Virtual Server? And is there anything I did wrong in my installation?
    Cheers,
    Paul

    Well, according to this virtual pc 2004 supports archlinux 0.7.1 and 0.7.2 .
    They claim virtual server 2005 uses the same core as virtual pc 2004 , so it should work.
    Try installing with one of the previous isos, see ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/iso .

  • Need help in creating virtual server

    Hi
    I have configured the sun ONE portal server to run on a domain p1.test.com. A default virtual server with the listen socket is existing for this virtual server. But now I need to access the portal with another domain name p1.test.co.in. I have tried creating another virtual server but it is not working. Please help me in creating the virtual server. For the "urlhost", whether I have to specify the original machine name or new domain name. Please help me in this issue.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply. Actually I need the same content for both the url's. The DNS entries are already for the two urls's. It is getting the login page. But after giving the credentials it dosent brings the portal desktop page (seems to be going in a loop).
    I have my Sun ONE LDAP server configured with the domain "test.com". Is there any changes that I have to make in the LDAP. Please help me in this issue.
    Thank You.
