Re: vcenter 7.0b

I pushed this build to my 4 node ESXi cluster via vSphere Lifecycle Manager. The process updated three servers before I noticed the CPUs (8-core) were at 98C...The Supermicro 300-9D IPMI was CPU throttling.

 

I've rebuilt the cluster again using the ESXi GA 7.0 bits, then applied the ESXi 7.0b update the same issue. ...yea, I'm a slow learner. Next, I tried just BOOTING to the ESXi 7.0b bits, the same CPU over temp issues. Seems something in the ESXi 7.0b is putting the CPU (D-2100) into a loop.

 

So, it seems like two issues. one for Center and one for ESXi. This one needs more testing.

Sorry, I need to understand your idea.

You want to execute a command from the Virtual file machine which does not work like:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\username\VMware Workstation\vmware-vdiskmanager.exe" -r "C:\VmWare\win2016F\disque virtuel.vmdk" -t 0 "C:\Users\username\Desktop\NewDisk.vmdk"

 

Is that correct??

The location of vmware-vdiskmanager.exe  is in  c:\Program Files (x86)\VMWare\VMware Workstation\

 

Obviously Alessandro made a typo - just replace "username" with "VMware".

Hi,

Indeed I saw this error, but the question was about the file, should I take the "original" vmdk fiile from the VM which does not boot?

If this is OK for my understanidng, I executed the command as requested and the new VM file I store it into a test directory.

C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Workstation>vmware-vdiskmanager.exe -r "C:\VmWare\win2016F\disque virtuel.vmdk" -t 0 "C:\test_vm\NewDisk.vmdk"

VixDiskLib: Failed to initialize PhoneHome library.

Creating disk 'C:\test_vm\NewDisk.vmdk'

  Convert: 100% done.

Virtual disk conversion successful.

 

Hope this is what your requested as a test.

 

Thanks a lots

Clearly I have not access to Alessandro's mind, so please wait for his instructions. In any case, please keep a safe backup of the original untouched files (if the VM is really valuable to you).

I was able to find that for the NSX-T Manager just now, but not for the NSX Intelligence appliance.

OK! the test is correct.

How big is the new file?

Two quick comments:

1. Joerg is correrct. I am looking for the for an upgrade ZIP rather than an ISO (like Dell and Vmware have always posted).

2. Dell does indeed have files posted for 7.0, A01 and 7.0, A00 but, as of 3:35PM today (6-28-20), Dell does have the files for 7.0 A02.

create a new vm by mounting this new hdd.

 

also send me the log file of your "vmware workstation" located in this path:

C:\ProgramData\VMware\hostd\hostd-n.log

I have created a new VM using this new file.

I can boot on Windows 2016 and still no new applications.

I attached the log for you.

 

Thanks for your help.

Has anyone figured out how to restart hostd without SSH or Console?

Has anyone figured out how to restart hostd without SSH, Console, or reboot?

I don't believe esxcli is an option as I believe it runs under hostd.

Not me


If someone knows of a method, I'm interested as well.

in the log file it doesn't seem to me that there is useful information.

 

when you say "... but before I deleted some snapshots for space optimizing" did you delete them from the vmware workstation or directly from the virtual machine folder?

 

you are missing the file: "Disque virtuel-000002.vmdk".

 

you can also post hidden files in the vm folder.

I deleted some snapshot from workstaiton manager not from the folder.

I have actually only 2 snapshot one from a whole and another one from last week.

Do you think I can try to restore the last one?

You have eliminated them correctly. I'm starting to think your problem is that the boot record of the Virtula machine is damaged ... which is why it enters that mode.

OK, one more question please.

How can I restore a snapshot from another VM machine??

Actually,

I have c:\vmware\windows2016F old machine no boot and snapshot.

C:\trest_VM\windows2016New, I can boot.

 

Then I need to restore the snapshot from c:\vmware\windows2016F to the new one!

Is that possible??

 

Thanks
