Re: vMotion Failing On Nested ESXi 5.1

scotte · ‎02-02-2013

Hi,

I'm having an issue with VMotion on one of my nested ESXi 5.1 hosts.

Lab Setup

Physical Host: HP ML350 G6 - (The CPU's are Intel Nahalem L5520 which support Intel VT-x & EPT so they can run 64-Bit nested VM's)

Hypervisor: ESXi 5.1.0 838463

Hostname: ESX1.ESX.COM - 192.168.3.2

Virtual Nested Lab

Hostname: ESXi5-1.ESX.COM: running ESXi 5.1.0 838463 - 192.168.3.70

Hostname: ESXi5-2.ESX.COM: running ESXi 5.1.0 838463 - 192.168.3.71

Cluster has HA & DRS enabled

All network settings are the same on both hosts and connectivity between them is fine and DNS is working as expected.

I currently only have a 32-Bit windows 2003 server VM running on the nested ESXi servers. I can successfully cold migrate between the nested ESXi hosts but when I try and VMotion from ESXi2 > ESXi1 the ESXi1goes into a (not responding) state and sometimes the VM itself goes into this state also.

I then have to reconnect the host in the VI Client. This does not happen when VMotioning to ESXi5-2

A potential issue that has recently come to my attention is that you cannot have more than one ESXi guest per VMFS data store on the physical ESXi host. I can't tell from the information provided whether or not ESXi5-2 is located on the same data store as ESXi5-1, but if so, this could be the source of your trouble.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for the fast response.

Both nested ESXi VM's did reside on the same NFS DataStore. I migrate ESXi5-2 to another Datastore and tried the VMotion again but it still fails.

There's some communication issue occurring between vCenter and this host for some reason.

I'll have to do some more digging around in the logs, I could just simply destroy the ESXi VM and deploy a new one but I want to understand what's causing the issue.

Cheers

Scott

Being on the same NFS data store should be fine. It's only a problem if they are on the same VMFS data store (i.e. a local disk on the ESXi host).

What are the expected complications if you have more than one ESXi 5.1 guest on the same VMFS datastore where the ESXi 5.1 guests are running on an ESXi 5.1 physical host?

Also, is this an ESXi 5.1 only type of situation for ESXi 5.1physical hosts/ESXi 5.1 guests or are other versions of nested ESXi affected?

Thanks.

Have you cloned the esxi virtual machines? Check if the vmkernel ports have different Mac addresses. I ran into such an issue before 🙂

I may have misunderstood the constraints. There are some scenarios in which you can end up with VMFS meta-data corruption. This is one of the reasons that nested ESXi is not supported. Let me try to clarify what those scenarios are.
