VMware ESXi 6.0 vSphere CLI on wnidows - installer has a bug

Did VMware messed up the installer for vSphere CLI on windows?
I installed VMware-vSphere-CLI-6.0.0-2503617.exe and when I open up 'VMware vSphere CLI -> Command Prompt', I get the following error message:
'"C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vSphere CLI\perl\bin"' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vSphere CLI>
When I right click on cli 6.0 'VMware vSphere CLI -> Command Prompt' -> properties, 'target' path has the following:
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\cmd.exe /K ""C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vSphere CLI\perl\bin" "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vSphere CLI\bin""
The target path for VMware vSphere CLI 5.0.0.3459 has the following and it doesn't have any error messages when opening 'VMware vSphere CLI -> Command Prompt':
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\cmd.exe /K ""C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vSphere CLI\bin\vcli.bat" "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vSphere CLI\perl\bin" "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vSphere CLI\bin""
Thanks

Hello!
Just successfully installed the hypervisor on a VM. The system requirements of ESXi 6 for RAM is minimum 4Gb as stated in the setup guide. Previously I created VM with 3 (or 2) Gb of RAM for my test purposes. And setup process was unsuccessful. When I try using VM with 4Gb, all became fine. Does the installer check the available RAM and go mad if it finds all but without a single byte? If it does why not to warn during setup as vCenter Server installer does? The VM log is attached to make things clear. Thanks for help.

How to UPDATE ESX Server 3i, 3.5.0, build 207095 using SSH or VSphere CLI remotely!

Hello Guys,
Over the past few hours I have been posting related questions and I have gotten a little closer to updating my server/host.
I have gone to the ESX Server 3i updates (Embedded and Installer) and I have noticed that the first build for ESX 3i is 207095. Which means that I have not done any updates since the installation. CORRECT!
Now... I have been using "ESX Server 3 Patch Management guide, which instructs us to use esxupdate, but it appears that some of the command in that document is not supported on my host.
This post: vihostupdate35 | VMware vSphere Blog - VMware Blogs ..... Tells me that I will have to use "vihostupdate35" from a remote CLI which I installed but cannot see how to connect to the server as I cannot find any document that shows the syntax etc.
At this point I am confused and frustrated and just need a little more guidance from someone who could point me to a document or copy and past the procedures I need to use to get this update done.
I have downloaded this file to do the UPDATE: "ESXe350-201302401-O-SG.zip" and I have extracted it on the host on a Datastore and copied it to my "/Tmp/ESXi350" folder.
I have also extracted it there as well just in case I need to browse to the extracted folder, and run any command.
Can anyone out there help me with the correct SYNTAX and METHOD to get this update installed?
I can connect with SSH from a windows machine using puTTy.exe as well as I have VSphere CLI installed on another Windows PC and can browse to the "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vSphere CLI\bin" folder to run "vihostupdate35.pl" I can see it in the folder with a "dir" command:

VMware ESXi on UCS C220 M3

Hello,
I have two UCS C220 M3 servers that host CUCM, UCCX etc.
The servers were built with the standard VMware 5.1 U2 ISO (VMware-VMvisor-Installer-5.1.0.update02-1483097.x86_64.iso) rather than the Cisco custom ISO (ESXi-5.1.0-1483097-custom-Cisco-5.1.2.2.iso)
VMware ESXi seems to be working ok but I cannot install VMware tools on the virtual machines and guess that this might be because they were built with the standard ISO file.
When I run utils vmtools status on the CUCM VM I get a message stating:
The VMware Tools ISO is not mounted in the CD/DVD drive
Please ensure that you have selected Guest -> Install\Upgrade VMware tools -> Interactive Tools Upgrade by right-clicking on the VM from your VI client
I guess the standard VMware image does not contain the tools ISO - is there any way to get around this short of trashing everything and starting again?
thanks

Hi James,
You still have to make VMware tools available to the guest.
ie. Using the VI Client, right click your CUCM VM, then select Guest -> Install\Upgrade VMware tools -> Interactive Tools Upgrade
Then in the CUCM CLI, enter "utils vmtools upgrade"
[It will reboot your node!]

GE26 & GE27 have been added in LAG2
VLAN 1UP, 10T, 20T, 30T & 40T have joined the LAG
In VMware, a vswitch has been created, using the 2 NIC connected to the LAG; and a Virtual Machine Port Group has been created for each VLAN member of the LAG
In Windows 2012, the 4 Network adapters have been added (1 for each VLAN), but they cannot ping their gayeway
However, the interfaces receives correctly thei IP addresses (and options) from the DHCP server, via the DHCP relay of the SG300
I also following the configuration described in this link (http://it-erate.com/setting-lag-vmware-esxi-5-cisco-sg300/) but without any success.
Do you have any idea ?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Please make sure the load balance mode in VMware is Route based on IP Hash.
The default value is virtual switch port ID, which cannot work together with port-channel in upstream switch, as explained in:
http://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/virtual_networking_concepts.pdf
"Note: If you select either srcPortID or srcMAC hash, you should
not configure the physical switch ports as any type of team or
bonded group."

How to move from vmware ESXi 5.5 to Hyper-V 2012 R2 on same hardware?

I have Vmware ESXi 5.5 Update 1 with two disks, called RAID0 (3.6 TB) and RAID5 (10.9 TB).
I am tired of having to rebuild ESXi every sixty days for home use so I am planning on moving to Hyper-V, but I'm a little nervous. I don't have swing kit, so will have to repurpose my existing 1 year old quite powerful machine (Intel i7 32 Gb RAM two sets
of RAID storage internal), 3 NICs. Features I need from VMware are:
Ability to snapshot and revert to snapshot (running and stopped VM)
Ability to move VMs between my different storage areas (RAID0 and RAID5)
Ability to set up internal networks to the Hyper-V host so I can set up virtual labs on their own virtual networks
USB pass through to the VM
Auto start VMs with the host.
Auto shut down VMs with the host.
Templating of OSs - mainly Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2012 R2, but also Centos 7. Can I convert my ESXi templates to Hyper-V?
Good performance from both Windows and Linux machines
Easy management from a workstation on the network.
Install Hyper-V to USB flash drive plugged in to the server.
Can Hyper-V do all that?
Also, I have a migration plan. Will this work?
In ESXi move all machines for migration from RAID5 to RAID0 storage.
Install Hyper-V on the host to USB flash drive (16 GB)
Format RAID5 storage so it can take vhds. (NTFS?)
Set up networks - have three NICs on the host.
Install management software on my workstation
Convert VMware vmx machines on RAID0 storage to vhd based machines on RAID5 storage. How to do this? My machines vary from v8,9 to vmx10.
Power on VMs and perform checks.
Any comments? I'm particularly concerned about the conversion process from VMware to Hyper-V and the reliability of it. Total size of VMs to convert is just under 3 TB.

Hi Mark. The short answer is yes to all. The more detailed answer is:
Make sure you're installing Windows 2012 R2 on the bare metal. All the following refers to 2012 R2.
I recommend you take some time and go through the
Hyper-V Best Practices Guide
Ability to snapshot and revert to snapshot (running and stopped VM) => yes, standard feature. Keep in mind this is meant to be a short term measure, not something you keep around for long time.
Ability to move VMs between my different storage areas (RAID0 and RAID5) => yes, storage migration is a standard feature that allows you to migrate a VM storage while the VM is running.
Ability to set up internal networks to the Hyper-V host so I can set up virtual labs on their own virtual networks => yes. An external vSwitch is one that's attached to a physical NIC. I recommend you review Hyper-V networking. It's a bit different than
VMWare.
USB pass through to the VM => not exactly. Some work around options exist, including sharing the USB drive on the host.
Auto start VMs with the host => yes, standard VM setting. You get to choose per VM whether to always start, start if it was already running, never start, or start with a given delay.
Auto shut down VMs with the host => yes (like save state) - defined in each VM setting
Templating of OSs - mainly Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2012 R2, but also Centos 7. Can I convert my ESXi templates to Hyper-V => yes, native in VMM, plenty of Powershell examples available online. Manual steps in Hyper-V Manager to re-use a
sys-prepped OS image is also available.
Good performance from both Windows and Linux machines => yes, depends mostly on hardware
Easy management from a workstation on the network => yes, from a Win 8.1 workstation, install RSAT
Install Hyper-V to USB flash drive plugged in to the server => yes. 16 GB is a bit small. I recommend a pair of mirrored 128GB SATA SSDs - should be inexpensive.
In ESXi move all machines for migration from RAID5 to RAID0 storage => All you need for migration is the VMDK files for each VM. VM should be offline.
Install Hyper-V on the host to USB flash drive (16 GB) => see recommendation about a pair of boot SSDs above.
Format RAID5 storage so it can take vhds. (NTFS?) => yes, NTFS, 64KB allocation unit
Set up networks - have three NICs on the host => in a single host environment / lab, you'll use 1 NIC on a single external vSwitch I guess. Or you can NIC team them then attach vSwitch to team.
Install management software on my workstation => RSAT on Win 8.1
Convert VMware vmx machines on RAID0 storage to vhd based machines on RAID5 storage. How to do this? My machines vary from v8,9 to vmx10. => try
MVMC 3
Power on VMs and perform checks. => no comment :)
Did I mention the
Hyper-V Best Practice Guide?

Install CUCM 8.6 on VMWARE ESXi 5.0 Failed

Dear All,
I want to install CUCM 8.6 on Virtual Machine. I'm using VMWARE ESXi 5.0 version for the VM server.
The installation CUCM 8.6 failed with error says:
"the hardware you are using is not supported for this prodcut"
I already disable LRO on the host ESXi 5.0, but still failed.
is need to install the VMTOOLs before I install CUCM?
CUCUM 8.6 support VMWARE Version ESXi 5.0?
Thanks
Regards,
Krisna

Actually for CUCM 8.5 and before it's RHEL 4, for CUCM 8.6 it's RHEL 5 (32 bit).
I used the available OVA for my lab and it worked fine:
1 vCPU
2304 MB RAM
80 GB HDD
Not sure about compatibility with ESXi 5 and the VM machine v8 but above works for ESXi 4.1.
If it still doesn't work, try using the same settings as you would in a ESXi 4.1 install.

Now - I wanted to create 2 such VM Guest Linux O/S instances and make those 2 Linux/Oracle into Oracle 11g R2 RAC
Is this possible to do - so I can learn about Oracle 11g R2 RAC operation, tuning, setup and maintenance?Yes, possible to setup.
No, you are unlikely to learn anything of value ito tuning and maintenance as the environment does not run on actual cluster h/w that are used in real world RAC clusters. For example, huge pages, jumbo frames - pretty meaningless in a VM for tuning Oracle RAC. Bonding of Interconnect Interfaces and pulling the plug - pretty much useless. What about running multiple I/O paths to the cluster's storage server? Using RDS for Interconnect instead of UDP? Etc. Etc.
RAC is only as performant, scalable and robust as the h/w components it is build on. I cannot see any value in virtualising this and expecting to gain real insight to RAC performance management and tuning. Best one can expect is familiarisation with installation prerequisites, the installation steps and setting up the database. I question if any more value than that can be obtained from a single PC virtualised RAC environment.

Installing Inventory only agent on VMWare ESXi

Hello,
did anybody manage to install the Inventory-only-Agent (V 11.2.3) on a
VMWare ESXi 5.1-Server? We would like to collect the inventory data for
our CMDB. When i start the installation i get the follwoing errors:
/tmp # ./zenumia-install.sh -s mycollectionserver
Collection Server is mycollectionserver
installing zenumia to /opt/novell/zenworks/umia

OS tagged as unknown, sysinfo package is mcsysinfo-noui-10-.sh
../zenumia-install.sh: line 223: whoami: not found
user is
Must be root to install. Aborting install.
So there are some needed commands like "whoami" missing and the OS ist
unknown.
I tried to collect the inventory data via a Discovery task, but the
collected information is quite poor. No vendor-specific Hardware info, etc.
Kind regards,
Thomas

Can CUCM 8.5 version be installed on a DL 380 G5 server in Virtual environment (Vmware Esxi 4.0 or 4.1)? Or does it have to be only installed in UCS boxes for VMware?

Can CUCM 8.5 version be installed on a DL 380 G5 server in Virtual environment (Vmware Esxi 4.0 or 4.1)? Or does it have to be only installed in UCS boxes for VMware?
1. If the installation is possible for the Vmware instance on a DL 380 G5/G6 server , will that be supported by Cisco ?
Similary is the case with CUIC 8.5. Has anybody worked on these do suggest ideas.

Virtualized UC applications from Cisco are only supported on the UC on UCS platform using ESXi 4.0, 4.0 Update 1, or 4.1 - hypervisor support may vary based on application.

Best to file a support ticked with VMware about this; they can help you debug and fault isolate the problem. I suspect a CPU cache problem but that is purest speculation.

UCCE 8.5.2, VmWare ESXi 4.1and VMXnet3.

Hello Team,
We are setting up a platform with UCCE 8.5.2 and we use VmWare ESXi 4.1.
As recommanded by Cisco, we are bout to disable "LRO". But according to VmWare, we should upgrade the cards to VMXnet3.
Is it supported for UCCE 8.5.2 ? I have looked in a lot of documentation but with no luck.
Regards.
Dominique.

TD100 VMWare ESXi 3.5 U4 RAID health status

Hi,
i am using a TD100 (6429) with an 8k RAID adapter with VMWare ESXi 3.5 U4. The system is working fine with one exception:
I can not monitor the health status of my 8k RAID. It wont show up on the health status page in the VM client. Therefore the only way to check the status would be to look at the front lights of the server itself. That does not seem to be a good solution since it is out of sight in the server room.
In the VM forums i just found that some kind of CIM would be needed.
Is there any way to resolve this issue?

welcome to the forum!
the following document should help in using VMWare with IBM Director and ServeRAID Manager:

Can i use free VMWare ESXi for commercial use.?

Hi,
I know that this question have come up before but I can't find any
definitive answers. Can i use free VMWare ESXi for commercial use. We
would like to host
several customers on a machine running VMWare ESXi. I want a clear answer so we can do it without any further discussion.
Thank you all in advance,
LNN

If you plan on renting out a VM, then you need to look at the hosting programs - http://www.vmware.com/solutions/hosting/index.html. The base EULA for ESX and ESXi do not allow for the rental of VMs but I believe it may be possible to get an exemption to that.

Does the ACS v5.4 support vmWare ESXi 4.0 or 4.1?

Looked through the documents around the requirements for ACS V5.4 and whilst there was mention that it supports vmWare ESXi version 5.0, there is no indication as to whether it is backward compatible with ESXi version 4.0 or 4.1.
The vmware infrastructure that I have to use has not yet been upgraded, hence my ESXi version limitation.
Anybody know the answer.
Thanks
Russ.

Yes it supports ESXI 4.0 and 4.1 both. For installation you can follow the below guide.

Installing CUEAC on VMware ESXi

we have two UCS C210 M2 machines
running CUCM in cluster (1 pub 1 sub) and Unity in cluster , and one is running CUPS as well .
i would like to install CUEAC on a VM i would create on one of the machines
some questions:
1. is it OK to install CUEAC on same ( physical) machine as CUCM?
2. in the CUEAC admin guide there is only a reference to "Cisco Unified Attendant Server is only supported in a live environment on VMware ESXi 4.0 running
on Cisco UCS B200M1 hardware" is this info up to date ?.
any other advice would be usefull
thanks

No it is not, attendant console 9.0 is Windows based just like previous versions, see the data sheet:
