how can config proactive HA

Dear all

Hi

i want to run proactive HA

my server is DL580 G10

i have download and deploy HPE_OneView_for_VMware_vCenter OVA file and add vcenter to that.

also i have installed HPE_OneView_4.20.01.01_ESXi_Z7550-96659.ova

my vcenter ip = 10.10.50.60

my  one view ip = 10.10.50.77

my HPE_OneView_for_VMware_vCenter  = 10.10.50.78

now from Menu- Administrator - HPE one view for vmware vcenter - server integrations:

in this part we can see to tabs : Oneview - servers

in the server tab i added my esxi host (this is lab and i have just one esxi host )

in the one view tab i insert hpe one view ip and creditional  (10.10.50.77)

but during registering show : Error while registering Hypervisor Manager or Oneview

how can solve the problem ?

This is a problem with OneView and not vCenter or ESXi, so I'd recommend you either post on an HPE-focused message board or open a case with them.

The ProActive HA provider comes with HPE OneView. How to install OneView and configure it is something you would need to look on the HPE website for as already mentioned above.

but if this is a lab with a single server, what is the point of installing proactive HA? HA always requires 2 hosts at minimum?

As far as I can tell you do not need HPE One View, you only need HPE OneView for vCenter:

i was read that doc completely but it did not explain about most of parts for example according attached pics in server integrations part we have two tabs Oneview and servers :

in servers tab we had to insert esxi host info and inserted with succeed

but what is oneview tab ? Do i had to insert oneview info ( ip, user , pass) in that ?

Actually i inssert that info in this tab but according the pic could not register

and according to this i think had to install both products hpe one view and oneview for vcenter

is that correct ?

As stated above, your questions are HPE OneView questions. you may want to try their forums, better chance of finding an expert. I can only provide you the info that is in the documentation.

Hi Baber

you can try to create a new cluster and enable the HA DRS and proavtive HA without hosts to check if the provider is listed in the list .
