Hey, we are running a ESXi 5.0 u1 cluster with two hosts and a shared iscsi storage. at this morning one hosts stopps working and the hole host was in a very "strange state". the host answers to a ping but we cannot connect with vsphere client and we cannot login on the gui... After a hard-reset we brought the host up and running. now i am looking in the VPXA.log and see a very strange error: 2014-05-08T09:14:24.178Z [57408B90 error 'Default']

Hi, i have a setup with two vcenter sites and the new vmware replication appliance on every site. i have connected the two sites with an vpn tunnel and both replication appliances are connected. until this, everything works fine. my problem is when i want to setup an replication job from a VM in SITE1, in the wizard i can't select the target-datastore on SITE2. so i cant go to the next steps in the wizard and i cant finish the replication job. when i do the same thing in the other direction (a VM from SITE2 to SITE1) i can select my 2 datastores in SITE1 and everything is working fine. what could be the problem? is there any limitation for the datastores? i cound see noone of my datastores on SITE2, even not the local datastore disk. i saw one point when i look at the datastores on both sites: on site 2 (where i cant select the datastores) all datastores are marked as "hardwareaccelerator = true" on site 1 (where i can select the datastores) my datastores are marked as "hardwareaccelerator = unknown" cound that be the problem? how can i turn off the hardware-accelerator for testing this? thanks for every help! best regards, bernd

Hi, i have a short strategy-question: I want to use a Netapp 31XX Storage for our virtual environment. my question is now the connection to the esx-servers. we have onboard 4gbit FC on the netapp and a extension-card for 10gbit ethernet (2-ports) on the esx-servers we have actually "only" 2 10gbit ethernet ports... now i dont know on with connection-type i get better performance: a dedicated 10gbit ethernet connection for NFS a dedicated 4Gbit FC connection My Netapp consolutant has told me about the VMware feature to see the "reserved disk-space" from deduplication by using NFS... this is very nice in my opinion... but the bigger question for me is the performance. could anybody told me about this two connection-types. best regards, bernd

how can i check the ha-state without vcenter server? my vcenter server has no connection to my failed site when i poweroff my switch...
i have tested the isolation by a ping to my standard-gateway... this doesnt reply... the host, on the site with the failed switch, is not the master of my cluster... is this a reason?

no that isn't great my problem is that i have one switch on every site... when this switch failed, my network connectifity is complettly down... the problem is the virtual storage.. this appliance provides an iscsi storage device for both esx servers. every esxserver has one iscsi device with 2 paths (one to every iscsi-appliance) the problem is, on a split-brain (one switch is down), both esx servers are running and writing data to their local iscsi-appliance... when the network has been fixed, both iscsi-appliances has different data-states and they crashes... under vsphere4 i had set the isolation response to shutdown the isolated site (only the iscsi-appliance) and everything was allright... how can i get this under vsphere5??? best regards
