HPE Custom Image for ESXi 6.7 + Proliant Microserver Gen10 No IPMI capabilities

Hi there,

I’m really a newbie, so I may be asking something stupid, but I hope you can help me.

I downloaded and installed the HPE Custom Image for ESXi 6.7 GA Install CD on a HPE Proliant Microserver Gen 10 and everything went smoothly.

The thing now is about monitoring.

On the web client I go to Host > Monitor and the system says: This system has no IPMI capabilities, you may need to install a driver to enable sensor data to be retrieved.

Since here https://www.hpe.com/it/it/servers/hpe-esxi.html you can read (in Italian) “it supports Gen 9 and newer servers”

My understanding was that using this image I would not need to install anything else to monitor stuff like the RAID controller status.

 

Can you help me?

 

The final goal is to get to know ESXi, in order to make a step forward and offer our customers a better service but I am moving my first steps in this V-world and everything is really interesting but overwhelming.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hostd, vpxa and the vSphere API/SDK – Confusion on where the APIs actually live

Hi All,

I’m taking the VMware vSphere Deploy, Manage course and was confused about this:

  • In one slide, the instructor showed that vCenter Server communicated with the ESXi host using vSphere APi/SDK (The VMware Host Client also communicated using this)
  • In another slide, the instructor showed that the vCenter Server communicated with a vCenter agent living on the ESXi host (vpxa). This then communicated with another process called hostd, which then executed commands at the hypervisor…

With the second bullet point in mind, where does the vSphere API/SDK fit in? Is hostd the item that houses the vSphere API? Does vCenter communicate with vpxa, which then communicates with hostd using the vSphere API/SDK?

 

Clarification would be much appreciated.

Videos flickering

Hello, Greetings, Can any expert here please tell me what is the hardware and Vmware settings needed on ESX 5.1 to be able to play videos on  windows servers 2008 and 2012R2. The videos are flickering currently.

Esxi upgrade from 5.5 to 6.0U3 HPE custom offline bundle VMware-ESXi-6.0.0-Update3-6921384-HPE-600.10.2.0.23-Feb2018-depot.zip requires VSAN?

Hello all,

 

I am trying to upgrade one of my HPDL 380 G7 servers from Esxi Ver 5.5 to Esxi ver 6.0U3 using the esxcli and the VMware-ESXi-6.0.0-Update3-6921384-HPE-600.10.2.0.23-Feb2018-depot.zip.

 

I SSH into box and run

 

#esxcli software vib update -d “/vmfs/volumes/mydatastore/VMware-ESXi-6.0.0-Update3-6921384-HPE-600.10.2.0.23-Feb2018-depot.zip”

 

I receive the following about VSAN being required??

[DependencyError]

VIB VMware_bootbank_esx-base_6.0.0-3.79.6921384 requires vsan >= 6.0.0-3.79, but the requirement cannot be satisfied within the ImageProfile.

VIB VMware_bootbank_esx-base_6.0.0-3.79.6921384 requires vsan << 6.0.0-3.80, but the requirement cannot be satisfied within the ImageProfile.

Please refer to the log file for more details.

 

Can anyone provide any insight on how I can resolve this error and get my Dl380 G7 server to upgrade to esxi 6.0U3?

 

Much appreciated

HP Proliant 380G9 with H241 sas card

Hello

I have installed ESXi in HP Proliant 380G9, it has a Dual SAS port H241 controller

 

The problem that I have is that the OS only sees 1 port. I updated the firmware and drivers, and the issue is still there.

 

Any idea?
