      <title>Re: Update Manager - Error connecting to VMware vCenter Update Manager - Database temporarily unavailable or has network problems.</title>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;I was having the same exact issues as you guys. It happened after we installed vCenter on a new server.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I was getting the same ODBC DOMAIN\COMPUTERNAME$ logon failures.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;All my ODBC connection tests were working fine.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Here's why:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;On our old vCenter server VUM was using a service account to run, that service account had the correct permissions in the VUM DB.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;When another admin installed the new vCenter server + VUM he had set VUM to run as local system. Hence it was trying to authenticate to the SQL DB as DOMAIN\COMPUTERNAME$.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The SQL server of course did not have the permissions set for the computer object to interact with the DB.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I changed the VUM service to use the service account instead of local system. Restarted the services and sure enough update manager began to work.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;In short, whatever account the VUM windows service is running as needs to have rights on the VUM DB.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Ok folks this should be an easy one. I have several ESXi 5.0 hosts that are sitting at ESXi 5.0 Patch 4.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;They reside in a secure environment with no access to the internet. I would like to patch them with the latest ESXi patches.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;My question is can I jump straight to the latest patch (according to VMware its 5.0 Patch 11) or do I have to step through each patch bundle 5, 6, 7 ect...11.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If I do just the 5.0 Patch 11 does that include all the other updates from the other patch packages?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thx!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;We just had a very similar issue on our system. We are running 5.1 ESXi and 5.5 vCenter.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;We added a new 1.5 TB datastore to our VMware cluster. Only a few hosts were seeing the new datastore. After doing a bunch of refresh/rescan all we managed to get all the VMhosts to see the new datastore. Then things got really weird, the size was being reported erroneously from it being 4TB to over 290,000TB!!! It would jump into a red alarm and then disconnect from some hosts. On other hosts it showed up correctly as 1.5TB but with 700GB used! Refresh again and the datastore would disappear!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I checked on our SAN and there were no errors or messages to indicate any issue with the SAN, LUN, or communication paths.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;We ended up creating a new LUN and datastore and just deleted the one causing the issues. So far everything seems fine. We have never seen this happen before. We too concluded that it may have been some type of corruption on the LUN or during the VMFS5 formatting. I know this doesn't offer much help in how to solve the issue. For us since it was a new datastore with nothing on it we opted to just delete it and move on rather than troubleshoot deeper with VMware.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Well I just got back from the vSphere 6 training. Supposedly web client is "improved" well I'm here to tell you its still &lt;SPAN style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;HORRID&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Every single day we had web client crash, hang up, or otherwise become useless for everyone in the class about 4 - 5 times a day (mind you that each group of 2 people had their own vCenter (and web client install).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Screens wouldn't reflect the new changes ect... garbage. We had 3 browsers, FF, IE and Chrome and they all had issues. Our entire class was griping about Web client.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Our instructor offered no news of hope, he basically said that VMware is pushing forward and that the plan is that as new VMware admins come into the world that have only used the web client that the older folks used to the thick client will be pushed out. Even VMware doesn't know its own product, in the class we were taught that VMware Update Manager had been fully integrated into web-client. Wrong. We quickly learned you cannot stage or remediate patches through web client. You can only configure your patch baselines. In short web client 5.x gets two thumbs down and the "improved" version 6.0 still gets two thumbs down.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;^^^ What these guys are saying.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have been a loyal VMware customer for over a decade as well. However the horrible webclient needs to be resolved. I have peronsally been responsible for companies spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on VMware based on my recommendations. If VMware continues on this path I don't think I will be able to give that recommendation. Hyper-V is looking more and more appealing and cost effective. I also cannot agree more that I would never (nor anyone I work with) try to manage VMware from a tablet or worse a phone.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I'm watching closely VMware our money is on the table. YOU decide if it goes to your pockets or Microsoft's.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;We are still running our vCenter 5.5 install on a physical box. This is mainly because back when we first installed vCenter (version 3.5 days) VMware recommended it be on a physical box. At least that's what the VMware teacher told us. So we have been upgrading our physical vCenter box every time VMware releases updates. I agree that having to maintain another box just for vCenter is a burden. We are planning to migrate our vCenter to a VM in the very near future. Physical hardware just doesn't make sense anymore in my opinion.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;vCenter depends on an active directory environment to operate. As stated above you can find yourself with 2 critical components being offline at the same time while one of them is trying to connect to the other.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;I'm old school and don't put anything on domain controllers ever. Many a headaches have been avoided by this practice in my experience. Having a problem with a DC is painful enough let alone adding some other app to the mix.

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;We ran both Kaspersky (GARBAGE) and Trend for AV in our VMware environment and they were both similar in vShield deployment so I would imagine SEP is also similar here is how it works.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;1. You deploy the vShield manager appliance to your VMware cluster.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2. You may or may not need to load a driver on your ESXi host provided by the vendor (Trend, ect..)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;3. Now you have the endpoint tab in vCenter allowing you to install the Endpoint peice for vCenter on each ESXi host.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;4. On your VM's you re-run the VMware tools installer, and select the optional component to install the VMCI driver. This will register your VM with vShield Endpoint and allow you to perform agent-less AV protection (not really agent-less as its using the vmware tools agent but that's splitting hairs)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;This allows offloading of AV scanning/processing to occur to a dedicated appliance reducing the load on your VM's and helps prevent I/O storms.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;If you have a multi core/socket CPU you can set processor affinity for the IIS process in task manager. You can also setup multiple worker processes and application pools.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;IIS also allows you to set affinity rules for application pools. IIS uses all cores by default.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;You are getting too hung up on cores/sockets. Start off light 1 socket dual or quad core and 4GB RAM. Run it and see, if its sluggish adjust accordingly. Dont let it bug you.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Yeah if its job related get your networking down solid. That's the building block for everything else.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;To this day I'm often puzzled at some senior level admins trying to troubleshoot problems without them checking the fundamental basics of networking. More times than not its something trivial related to networking, especially on new server build outs.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Welcome to I.T. where you are expected to be a jack of all trades and know every hardware/software platform. Push and push hard for paid training by your employer. Prepare for gray hairs &lt;img id="smileywink" class="emoticon emoticon-smileywink" src="https://communities.vmware.com/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-wink.png" alt="Smiley Wink" title="Smiley Wink" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
