I am new to virtualisation and i am not sure what size server i should use for the client i am setting up for, there is 58 desktops being used at the moment,

They have 1 design group of 4 that use a special server with Inventor Vault on it and another design group of 6, that only use autocad  on the workstations.

I will need to setup about 6 servers, including 1 exchange server and 2  remote desktop services servers.

 

I am not sure exactly what i should get to run all that.

 

Hoping someone can help.

Cannot create Windows 10 VM under ESXi 6.5 running as a VM under Workstation 12

$
0

I'm running ESXi 6.5 as a VM under Workstation 12, which in turn is running under Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials.  I am unable to create VMs under ESXi 6.5.

 

From the Navigator I click on Host.  From the Host configuration panel, I click on Actions and select Create/Register VM.  Then I select Create a new virtual machine and click on Next.  In the name field, I enter a name (Windows 10 Pro x64 Test).  For Compatability, I leave the setting at ESXi 6.5 virtual machine.  For Guest OS family, I select Windows, for Guest OS version, I select Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit).  Then I click Next.  I have only one datastore, so that is displayed and automatically selected.  It has a capacity of 292.5GB, 291.55GB free, the type is VMFS5, Thin provisioning is set to Supported and Access is set to Single.  I click Next taking me to the Customize settings panel.  I leave all the Virtual Hardware settings at their defaults, except for Video Card which I change from Specify custom settings to Auto-detect settings.  I don't enter/change any VM Options.  Click Next.  This takes me to the Ready to complete panel.  I click Finish.

 

Then I get a VM config error message:  The VM configuration was rejected.  Please see browser Console.  The browser console states "Failed - The operation is not allowed in the current state."

 

When I Google this, I find a few YouTube videos with titles like "Installing Windows 10 under ESXi," but when I watch these videos, they are all running ESXi under vSphere, not under Workstation 12, and the browser interface looks completely different from what I see on my machine.  Also, what does "current state" refer to?  The instance of ESXi?  The instance of the VM I'm trying to create?  The datastore?  What state is whatever-the-error-message-is-referring-to in and what state should it be in?  I wish it would give more complete messages, like the X is in state Y and it needs to be in state Z.

I generally don't touch the physical hosts or vCenter Server, but recent security scares tell me I need to keep these patched.

Is there a recommended way to go about it?

I have Oracle 11g, configured to use (Real Application Cluster) Oracle (RAC) and storage.

Hello,

 

 

I have  two months searching information, but don't find the right answer.

 

I have ESXI now, but maybe this doesn't is the software need, and somebody can guide what is the solutions.

 

This is my needs.

 

Example:

 

Have 3 VM

1. api.example.com (Windows Server)

2. testing.example.com (Linux Server)

3. whm.example.com (cPanel Linux Server)

 

Have 1 IP Dedicated.

 

If open  api.example.com need the VM response to request domain or subdomain.

If open testing.example.com need show the page in the VM Linux.

 

Now have cPanel machine response all request, but can't route domains to diferent VM, I don't know if need more IP's or another software for work.

 

Regards

I don't get  time to attend the training session, beside i am working on the wmware platform. so i think practicing in my home lab and studding with the vmware official guide is enough.  Obviously training will provide few advance knowledge. But my question is the training mandatory from vmware authorized training center to be VCP6-DCV ? Or just i can directly appear  the exam.
