System monitoring plugin for Vmware ESX server..
i have a OEM grid control 10.2.0.5 with management plugin for Vmware ESX server (Management Plug-in: vmware_esx_server, Version 1.1.3.1.0) added.
I later added another server agent for management/monitoring of VMware ESX server.
the agent state is UP and under Monitored targets for the agent I am now trying to add the VMware ESX server
Once on the page, here I enter the details <Hostname / Usrname:Pwd / Protocol:HTTPS / Keystore> and click on Test Connection and recieve a Warning :
Failed to contact the target to be added. Following errors were received while testing the connection to the target. Update the properties accordingly, try Test Connection for testing the properties before saving.
TestVersion - caught com.vmware.vim.InvalidLogin: ; nested exception is: javax.net.ssl.SSLException: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unexpected error: java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException: the trustAnchors parameter must be non-empty Aug 26, 2009 9:28:04 AM org.apache.axis.utils.JavaUtils isAttachmentSupported WARNING: Unable to find required classes (javax.activation.DataHandler and javax.mail.internet.MimeMultipart). Attachment support is disabled.
If I go ahead and click OK it adds the Target(Vmware esx server) to the agent and displays message :
"Target ESXVS (VMware ESX Server) has been added."
THE problem starts here.. the metrics collection doesnt happen for the target and I get Metric collection errors.
I have tried checking in diff versions of management plugins as well as tried adding the target to the Grid control's agent//
Pls help..
Is the location that you specified for the keystore file somewhere that the agent can read from (either a drive local to where the agent is installed or a network drive that the agent has access to)? Is the keystore file one that was generated for that specific ESX Server from its rui.crt file? Each ESX Server has a different rui.crt file that you use to create the keystore file.
You won't be able to collect metrics if the SSL connectivity isn't set up correctly.

Hello Guys,
I have been running an old server that was installed as a test system on a DELL workstation - Optiplex GX620 (32 bit).
During the installation I had to confirgure the file: /usr/lib/vmware/installer/Core/TargetFilter.py to change the following line:
"return interface.GetInterfaceType() == ScsiInterface.SCSI_IFACE_TYPE_IDE" to read:
"return interface.GetInterfaceType() == ScsiInterface.SCSI_IFACE_TYPE_ISCSI" this made it worked and I have been using it for 3 years now. However, at this time I was hoping to update it with the latest patches and updates and I cannot figure out if I have ESXi or just ESX, nor what was my last update and what is required next.
I have used this command to get the following output:
# vmware -v
VMware ESX Server 3i 3.5.0 build-207095
... I believe the 3i indicates that I have an ESXi 3.5.0 but is build-207095 the same buid as ESXi 3.5.0 Update 5?
If not, how do I go about updating it? What is the KB # I should download?
I can manage it using vSphere Client 5.5 and I can SSH into it using Putty.
Note: When I run... "# esxupdate --bundle=ESXe350-201302401-I-SG.zip update" from within the folder where its at in the datastore, nothing happens... just a new line is scrolled.
Also...
# esxupdate query

... is there any further update for this system? I believe so as the Heartbleed patch etc. was not around when I was installing this server back in 2010.Hello Richardson Porto,
I wanted to tell you that I appreciate the help so far.
Also wanted to point out to you, that the KB indicated above is older than Update 5, which from your instructions is what I have installed. That KB is for U2.
Now, the document definitely has step by step instructions on installing, querying etc. But my problem is ... NOT ALL COMMANDS WORK FOR ME!
This is why I am here because all the instructions I have been reading does not work with my flavor of ESX 3.5.0, 207095... WHY? It has me stumped.
For example, here are some commands the doc asked me to do and they failed: (Note that I had to unzip the folder on my windows box and upload it to /tmp using vSphere Client)
/tmp # ls
ESX350-201302402-BG ESX350-201302402-BG.zip vmhsdaemon-0
/tmp # unzip ESX350-201302402-BG.zip
-ash: unzip: not found -----------------------THIS COMMAND WAS NOT FOUND ?
/tmp # cd ESX350-201302402-BG
/tmp/ESX350-201302402-BG # esxupdate info
Invalid command info -----------------------THIS COMMAND WAS INVALID ?
/tmp/ESX350-201302402-BG # esxupdate update -----------------------NOTHING HAPPENED HERE ?
/tmp/ESX350-201302402-BG # ls -lh
-rw------- 1 root root 321.3k Dec 13 15:24 VMware-esx-scripts-3.5.0-988599.i386.rpm

drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 512 Dec 13 15:24 headers
/tmp/ESX350-201302402-BG #
NOTE: All these commands were run sequentially and I just copied and paste it from my SSH Client (PuTTy.exe)
Is there a toolkit I need to install to have these commands or what really am I missing here? Host is in Maintenance Mode and the 1 VM that's on it is off!
I am going to start a new discussion with this NEW ISSUE, since the Heading of this DISCUSSION has already been SOLVED! Thanks again! -
How to install prime NCS 1.1 for Vmware ESXİ Hypervisor 5.0
Dear,
Im trying to install prime NCS 1.1 for Vmware ESXİ Hypervisor 5.0 (that is free copy)
I deployed correctly OVA image which i downloaded cisco.com however power on server and then screen is black and work nothing.
and open console wasnt working.
Physical server installed ESXi is HP Blade server.
I enabled processor virtualization Blade server's BIOS.
NCS 1.1 OVA image is Linux based so i cant install Vmware Tools.during the console wasnt working how i install Vmware Tools and run the server and also NCS 1.1 ??
Regards.
EmreOnce installed and started successfully (e.g. admin has issued "ncs start" from the console and all services are running, can be verified by issuning "ncs status" also from console command line), the NCS server should be listening on port 443 and thus requires you to access it via https.
See step 2 here. -
Hi folks,
is it possible to install vmware ESX Server (not OSX+Fusion) directly on my Mac Pro? I would like to have a very good hardware-based machine for the datacenter, and virtualize all guests using ESX.
Any advice will be appreciated
Best Regards
Andrea

Configuring JRE 1.4.2 plugin for TLSv1 only server
Hi,
I have apache server configured that talks only TLSv1. I wasn't able to load an applet from IE on JRE 1.4.2_05 plugin. so I did the following
1.Edited the file Documents and Settings\<<username>>\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\deployment.properties file and added an entry "deployment.security.TLSv1=true"
The applet wasn't loading even then , so in JRE control panel --> Advanced tab in Java Runtime parameters , I added -Dhtps.protocols=TLSv1, It was failing again
When I tried the same on JRE 1.5 , after the step 1, I was able to load the applet, but on JRE 1.4.2 ,I am not able to load the applet for TLS only server
Please let me know , if there is any any workaround, or this is JRE bug,The error which i got on the console is
at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(Unknown Source)
at com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.InputRecord.a(Unknown Source)
ThanksI am seeing similar behaviour with JRE 1.4.2 and it appears to be a bug as it does not take the value specified in https.protocols.
You may want to try 1.5.0_05 as it has the enable TLS option in the Java Control Panel under Security. -

Enterprise System 5 support for Windows 2003 server
Hi,
Can you tell me if it is possible to run Sun Java Enterprise System 5 on a windows server and get the portal server to work?
Weare currently using JBoss ... and not very keen on it as a portal server.
I tried installing ES5 but was unable to get the portal server to play, then i read something about no support for windows 2003 in ES5.
Can someone confirm if this is true, unfortunately I am tied into using a windows server for lots of reasons. Is the download for ES4 still available? I believe Portal 6.0 instead of 7 is still ok for windows Server 2003 ?
If Portal 7.0 will play with windows, is there a guide somewhere that you can point me to as I am totally new to portals and could use a bit of an idiots guide.
Any info welcome !!
CheersThe support for Sun Java System Portal Server on Windows in Java Enterprise System 5 is limited to evaluation and development only. The Windows distribution for Portal Server (PS 7.1 Update 2) is provided as a pre-configured install. To install it, you unzip the file, and run a small setup script to change the hostname information. The pre-configured installation is setup with a fixed install location, ports, etc. so it is not really suitable for a deployment for that reason. Once installed, all of the functionality is there otherwise except the ability to patch the system.
Note: I just tried going through the download links, and there is something broken in the Sun download center. I've sent an internal notification about this. -

Prime LMS 4.1 and VMWARE ESX 5.0
Can Cisco Prime LMS 4.1 be deployed on VMware ESX server 5.0 or not ?
No LMS 4.1 is not supported on ESXi 5.0. LMS 4.1 supports the following Virtualization Systems:
•VMware ESX server 3.0.x
•VMware ESX Server 3.5.x
•VMWare ESX Server 4.0.x
•VMWare ESX Server 4.1
•VMWare ESXi Server 4.0
•VMware ESXi Server 4.1
•Hyper V Virtualization (As an installable in Windows 2008)
For more details check:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_lan_management_solution/4.1/install/guide/prereq.html#wp1119955
On a side note, though a OVF/OVA file may be an issue, but you can try to install LMS 4.1 on a virtualized Win/Sol guest OS host, where it should work mostly. But for any issues further, Cisco or TAC may refer to this as an unsupported installation, for any t/s or support.
Else, you may upgrade to LMS 4.2 which is supported on ESXi 5.0.

Edited by: Thiru Thirumal on Aug 6, 2008 4:57 AMHi,
Q. Is it possible to setup the solution manager -above mentioned tasks without Ides system ?
A. Yes.
Check with links for
1.Early watch alert
This process helps you to identify potential problems early, avoid bottlenecks, and monitor the performance of your ABAP and JAVA systems and your most important business processes, regularly, automatically and effectively. The data collection infrastructure comprises the ABAP Service Data Control Center and the JAVA function module Data Provider. The SAP EarlyWatch Alert in the SAP Solution Manager is a service provided by SAP.
To be able to use it, you have:
maintained the non-ABAP systems correctly in the system landscape maintenance (transaction SMSY)
RFC u2013 Connections between: and an RFC u2013 Connections established.
your satellite systems and the SAP Solution Manager system
SAP Solution Manager and the SAP Service Marketplace
Solution Manager system and Solution Manager Diagnostics
Cf: Solution Manager IMG (transaction SPRO).
checked the availability of the tools required for the SAP Service sessions (add-on ST-A/PI), with the report RTCCTOOL.
activated Alert Monitoring and set-up the Automatic Session Manager (ASM) in the Service Data Control Center (SDCCN) of your satellite systems, for all SAP satellite systems and the central SAP Solution Manager of your solution
set-up your systems in a solution landscape in the SAP Solution Manager
configured Solution Manager Diagnostics
2.System Monitoring
The system monitoring in the SAP Solution Manager is, as described above, like a system-wide central CCMS. It can also contain the central CCMS (CEN) of satellite systems. These CENs can then monitor other components.
The graphical display in the SAP Solution Manager gives you access to the alerts of all systems in a solution. You can go to the local or central CCMS of the satellite systems.
The system proposes the most important alerts in the CCMS monitor collection, according to SAP experience, and their alert thresholds, for each system in the solution, in the system monitoring Session. You can activate or deactivate these alerts. The connection between the local CCMS and the SAP Solution Manager allows you to maintain the alert thresholds directly in the SAP Solution Manager, overwriting the values in the local CCMS.
3.Central System Administration
You activate the customizing for business processes in your solution, in the Business Process MONITORING session in the SAP Solution Manager. A monitoring tree element (MTE), or a monitor collection, u201EBPMu201C of several monitoring objects, is created in the local or central (CEN) CCMS of the satellite system.
The data is collected for the monitoring types of the business process monitoring in contrast to system monitoring, as follows:
● The system collects performance (dialog transactions), posting cancellations (V1 and V2) and u201EOther CCMSu201C and interface data, in the local CCMS of the satellite systems.
● The system collects background processing, application list, application monitors, delivery lists, and document size data, in the central SAP Solution Manager CCMS.
The SAP Solution Manager system copies the data from the local CCMS.
The graphical display in the SAP Solution Manager simplifies access to the alerts for the business processes, business process steps or the interfaces between the systems in a solution. You can go to the local CCMS of the satellite systems.
The connection between the local CCMS and the SAP Solution Manager allows you to maintain the alert thresholds directly in the SAP Solution Manager. These overwrite the values in the local CCMS.
4.Business Process Monitoring
The system and business process monitoring (including interface monitoring) in the SAP Solution Manager, both use the Computing Center Management System (CCMS) (transaction RZ20) architecture. This means that system alerts which occur in the local CCMS, are passed to the SAP Solution Manager via RFC connections between the SAP Solution Manager and the satellites. The system shows these alerts in a graphic or in Sessions. You can also handle the alerts centrally, without having to go to the local CCMS of the satellite systems.
You can see the alerts from several systems in a solution landscape in the SAP Solution Manager, in a graphical overview, in contrast to the local CCMS of the SAP Solution Manager satellite systems. This is the view of a central CCMS (CEN). You can also monitor non-SAP systems in a central CCMS (CEN) of a satellite system
5.Service Level reporting
