Vmware tools for cisco acs 5.3

to backup an ACS 5.3 vm running on ESXi 5.0 our backup admin requested to install vmware tools on the acs server.
How to do this - if possible?

Hi Joe
yes the vmware HA works for us and is enough if you can live with risk of data corruption. (which we never experienced up to now...)
In our case it's good enough to recover from the backup instead of adding more complexity.
regards
Frank

  • Vmware tools on Cisco Prime Infrastructure

    Hi,
    Is there a way to install vMware tools on Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2. I know this can be done on LMS4.2. how about access to the shell like LMS4.2?
    Thanks,
    Kerim

    This was not preinstalled on ours though the files were there. We found the .gz install in this directory:
    /opt/CSCOlumos/tempInstallFiles
    we copied the the file to tmp:
    ade# cp /opt/CSCOlumos/tempInstallFiles/VMwareTools-8.6.5-621624.tar.gz /tmp
    changed to that directory and unzipped the file
    ade# tar zxvf VMwareTools-8.6.5-621624.tar.gz
    and installed the file
    ade# cd vmware-tools-distrib
    ade# ./vmware-install.pl
    and it is now running
    ade # ps auxwww | grep vm

  • VMware Tools for Windows 3.x

    Hello,
    I created a fork of VMware Tools for Windows 3.x 16-bit operating systems. Currently these tools include:
    time synchronization between ESXi host and VM
    CPU idle support
    FAT12 and FAT16 shrink support
    experimental 100 mbit/s network card support
    famous Intel 8086 turbo button emulation
    emulation of 5.25“ floppy drives and their sound for a better user-experience
    For the future 10 Gbit/s and InfiniBand support is planned.
    Check-out the source code on GitHub: stdevel/vmtools-w16 · GitHub
    Best regards!

    I know you must use 16-bit DLLs if LabVIEW is installed on Win 3.x. The LabVIEW CD for versions 4 and 5 contains NT/95/3.1 versions. Can't you just install the Win 95 version? If you're using an older version, maybe its time to upgrade.

  • VMware Tools on Cisco Prime LMS 4.1

    Hello,
    I have just installed Cisco Prime LMS 4.1 from .ova file on a VMware architecture. My customer wants to know if the server is compatible with vmware tools.
    I looked over Cisco documentation but it is never mentionned.
    Has someone allready take a look into that ?
    Thanks,
    Regards,
    Abel JULIAN,
    Nextiraone FRANCE.

    Yes, the datastore is located on a remote SAN so the original source won't be impacted by the loss of the ESXi. But in a perfect world (with VMtools), Vmotion will move VM from one ESX to another in case of failure, performance problem etc.
    Those functions won't be accessible here, and the VM will need to be restarted manually and reaffected to another ESXi in case of failure. Like I said before, the LMS server is not a critical application so that is not a huge issue. The important is to know that Cisco does not support this feature.
    Anyway, I have my answer so it is ok for me, I will notify my customer.
    Thanks you for your time,
    Regards,
    Abel

  • Installing VMware Tools on the ACS 5.2 VM Appliance

    A cursory glance doesn't reveal any instructions on how to do this, does anyone know of documentation out there on how to insall VMware tools on the VM?

    Hi Chris,
    Unfortunately wmware tools cannot be install on ACS 5.x. Developers are already aware of the situation and there is an enhancement feature request.
    CSCtg50048    Add support for VMWare Tools to ACS 5
    Symptom:
    VMWare Tools support is not present on ACS 5.
    Conditions:
    This affects ACS 5.
    Workaround:
    None.
    No ETA for the enhancement. The next ACS version will be ready in summer this year, please look for it around that time.

  • Vmware tools for fc10 fail to compile some modules

    I'm running esxi 3.5 u3 - when I try to install vmware tools on fedora core 10 (linux kernel 2.6.27.5).
    vmmemctl breaks:
    os.c: 590  erro struct proc_dir_entry has no member named get_info
    vmghfs breaks:
    bdhandler.c:29:27:  erro: asm/semaphore.h : no such file or directory
    I have checked in the kernel include files, and effectively these errors are correct. When I lookad at earlier 2.6 kernels, for example 2.6.18, proc_dir_entry did have a memeber named get_info, but no longer.
    Is there anything I can do? (although this is not that critical) .
    Otherwise, vmware-tools compile ok.

    Priot to the current version of VMWare Tools I used to try and compile them and ran into issues.
    Now I find that they are much better supported (on Ubuntu at least) and so in the VM I click on Install VMware Tools from the menu, mount the "CD" in a virtual CD Rom and install them the normal way ...
    I would hope that something like this would work for FC - this is what I do in Ubuntu:
    sudo apt-get install linux-headers-server build-essential
    sudo mount /dev/scd0/media/cdrom0
    or
    mount /cdrom
    VM &gt; Install VMWare Tools
    cp /cdrom/VmwareTools-x.x.x-xxxxx.tar.gz ~
    cd ~
    tar -zxf VmwareTools-x.x.x-xxxxx.tar.gz
    cd vmware-tools-distrib
    ./vmware-install.p
    I am not a FC user so I don't know how much this will help ...

  • VMware tools for OEL 5 Update 3

    Dear All,
    Recently I tried installing VMware tools on OEL 5 with Update 3 Linux Virtual Machine. The GNOME X Desktop which was working fine before the install stopped working after I installed VMware Tools.
    Why am I looking to Install VMware tools.
    I have two issues with OEL 5.3 Virtual Machines.
    #1. The Desktop is very small. I have difficulty in finding and navigating to the Next Button in OUI (runInstaller).
    #2. Mouse gets stuck while moving causing pain in the hand.
    Note: The above two issues are not appearing in Red Hat Virtual Machines I have on the same box.
    I'm not sure if OEL 5.3 is supported to be installed on VMware.
    Please help.
    Regards,
    Madhu

    There are some points to answer here:
    Change of resolution:
    1. login as root
    2. System > Administration > Display
    3. Change number of colors to thousands
    4. Select your resolution.
    5. Logoff
    6. Display size should change

  • Remote Command Tool for Cisco Routers/Switches

    Is anyone aware of any tools or scripts out there which allow preconfigured commands to be remotely run again Cisco Router/Switches and display the output result?
    I'm looking for a tool which I can give our Service Desk personnel that will allow them to select from a list of commands enter a target IP Address of a router/switch and then the tool will display the vlan table or the running config of a particular switch-port so they can see if its configured on the correct data vlan or its missing its voice vlan etc.
    For example a Service Desk Operator needs to check what vlan a switch-port is on. So they open the tool, enter the switches IP address and the port number and select an option like "display a switch-ports vlan" and the tool will login into the switch in the background run a show command on the switch and then output the result.
    Thanks.

    Check out rConfig. You will be able to run multiple instances of it i.e. one instance for your standard configuration backups and another for more specific configuration downloads info like show vlan bri commands etc for service desk staff to view.
    You could also use the IOS menu function and create menus or role based access on each of your devices for your users.

  • GUI Tool for Cisco 6500 Chassis

    Hi
    We have a requirement to allow our Service Desk to amend vlans on switchports on a range of 6509 chassis.
    Is there a tool, (like SDM for routers) which would allow them to do this using a GUI? We need to keep it as simple as possible as the Service Desk users have no experience of configuringCisco kit.
    We have Cisco Prime, however, I can't see anything which shows a graphical representation of the actual switchports on a chassis?
    If there isn't a Cisco product which supports this, does anyone know of a third party app which would do the job?
    Thanks
    J

    Hi datamodule, i see that you are looking for a 24 ports 1/10G SFP module for the Catalyst 6509E. From what i am looking at it's either 1G or 10G. Please check this link for further assistance: http://cs.co/9000YTBE. Feel free to message me for further assistance.
