Is there a way to find which ESXi server a particular VM on? For instance, I am on rhel5.4 vm, with vmware-guestd daemon running. But I want to find the hostname of ESXi server on which this Vm exists?
I want to download the ssl certificate from, say https://www.google.com, using wget or any other commands. Any unix command line? wget or openssl?
I have a couple of tables with federated storage engine (mysql). But I need to find the connection info for those two tables. Desc command is not helpful. I don't see the table mysql.servers.
Does mysql support multiple file systems for a single database with most of the tables being on MyISAM?
Context: we have a 1.5TB mysql database, which is increasing at the rate of 200GB per month. The storage is directly attached, whose slots are almost full. I can add another DAS, and increase the file system. But resizing volume, resizing file system, etc are getting messy. Is there a concept of "tablespace, datafile" (like in oracle) in MySql world?
Or how you guys manage mysql db with these kind of constraints?
Is it possible to login to a linux guest from the ESXi console - not via tcp stack, like zlogin in solaris global zone to a non-global zone?
I have copied the web db directory(/var/lib/mysql/data/web/), when mysql is not running. I transferred this directory to another machine, where mysql is running.
web db's stuff is myisam based.
I am thinking about how to restore this on a different server. The strategy I have on my mind is the following.
- copy the data directory of web db to the new server.
- on new server, 'create database web', which creates a directory in /var/lib/mysql/data
- copy all files from the step to the new directory created in 2.
- bounce mysql
My question: how to deal with information_schema for this new db?
I got a 200GB .tgz file on server A(RHEL 5.2). I wanna transfer that file to server B (RHEL 5.3). Server B is on ESXi 4 Update1. Server B VM is with 4 vCPUs, with 10GB RAM.
Both Server A and Server B are connected with an ethernet cable with local IP addies (no switch involved)
scp gives me about 3Mbps. Is there a way to get 400Mbps?
VI client doesn't let me add another virtual ethernet adapeter to a centos 5.2 guest vm on ESXi 3.5.
Is there a way to achieve this via some command like tricks?
Switch model: Netgear FSM7352PS mgmt-ip: 192.168.1.100/24 Vlan id: 1 (default)
There are couple of hosts in this Vlan: 192.168.1.2 (esxi console), for instance. 192.168.1.1 is the firewall/router interface.
I can ping 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.2 from other vlans, say, 172.31.0.0/24 I can ssh to 192.168.1.2 from 172.31.0.0/24
I can't ping 192.168.1.100 from 172.31.0.0/24 However, I can ping 192.168.1.100 from 192.168.1.2 or from my laptop connected to that vlan (192.168.1.11). I can connect to the web GUI from my laptop when I am in that Vlan.
Can anyone shed some light on why I am not able to connect from other vlans?
PS: on the switch, I see this entry in routing table, next hop IP for 192.168.31.0/24 is 192.168.31.100; when I connect to 192.168.31.2, it comes via 192.168.31.1 which is on fw/router.
We got 10 ESXi hosts running. We don't have budget for Virtual center licenses. Is there some free tool that just gives us consolidated view of all VMs with poweroff and poweron options for each VM.We don't need Vmotion, all other stuff.
Thanks
Switch: Netgear 7352PS Created a VLAN (id = 10), and assigned ports 13 through 24 to that vlan. Also configured PVID as 10 for all these ports.
Machine A: 172.31.192.111/24 Machine B: 172.31.192.110/24
I connected both A and B to ports 13 and 21 respectively. The ping between A and B is not working.
Am I missing something obvious here? Or better put, whats the best way to troubleshoot this?
A dumb question for the majority, but I am interested to know "why does a VLAN have an IP address?"
Is this address different from the default gateway? Or is this address, same as broadcast address for this VLAN?
IP address 192.168.4.100 255.255.255.0
The current log file name I have is: catalina.2010-02-24.log.
I want to add this for splunk indexing, but i am running into problems, since there is no static file name, since everyday tomcat renames the log file.
[tail:///var/logs/catalina.2010-02-24.log] is not gonna work. Is there a way around this problem
