Hi,

I found that there was an product called vCloud Connector some time ago, which allowed users to do all VM related stuff directly from their on premises vSphere Client.

Is there any new equivalent of this product for end users?

Hi All

I am trying to deploy Extender. I can deploy the appliance and power it on. But it does not customize the VM, so IP, hostname, password etc does not get set.

Any of you tried that?

Extender 1.1.0.2

vCenter 6.7u1

ESX 6.7u1

VCD 9.5

Hello.

Im using vCD 9.1.0 and few days ago configured Cassandra 3 in our LAB.

I used for installation and integration:

vCloud Availability for vCloud Director: Part 5: Deploy and Configure Cassandra Cluster

We had problems with ssl, so we disabled encrypted connection: vCloud Director 9 can't connect to cassandra DB

It seems installation worked fine but graphs are empty:

Any help will be apreciated.

We are integrating vCD portal to out main MSP portal and working on to have user login to its organization via url redirection (via API). For example,

https://vcd/api/admin/user/5 does not return which organization user belongs to

Which way is better to choose for hot migration between vCloud Director ?

Source: vCloud Director 9.0

Dest.: vCloud Director 9.5

vCloud Director Extender can help with this or is it only suitable for transferring VMs from vCenter to vCloud Director?

Or is it better to use vCloud Availability for vcloud director 2.0.1.1?

Maybe there are other ways?

Hi,

How can I get a list of vCloud Director active users using Power CLI? Is there a script/command that can get me this info?

I have seen a SQL command to get this data as explained here:

VMware Knowledge Base

Determining the list of users logged in to vCloud Director (2034809)

But I am looking to get the same/similar info using a script as I need to pipe the info to another tool.

Thanks.

Peter

Hi there!

I need help! I'm trying to use this workflow for creating a new external network on vCloud version (9.5.0). My vRO version is 7.5.0. I've got a connection to my vCloud from vRO and can see all the information about vCloud components, but when I execute the workflow for an external network creation I get an error. The debug info is below. Do you have any suggestions? Has anyone been able to execute this workflow without errors or you might take me advice how to create a new external network another way?

vCD - 9.5.0.11038232

vCD plugin in vRO - 9.5.0.10198325

Thanx a lot in advance!

Hi.

We use vCD 9.5.0.1 (2 cells) and Cassandra 3.11 (3 node) installed on Centos7

I integrated vCD CELLS and Cassandra DB 11.02.2019 and worked fine.

13.02.2019 at evening we performed update vCenter 6.5u1e do 6.5u2c... then i wanted test how can we put cassandra in maintenance mode...

I found only this command nodetool drain  and received recommendations for this command on some slack channel for Cassandra.

After vCenter update, we rebooted all Cassandra nodes ( If this is correct action after this command ? )

Unfortunately from that time we don't have new data:

in vCD logs:

I have that same errors on 2 test and DEV environments....

and sometimes we receive NULL data from database...im not sure if this can be a problem...

Strange because "LOAD" looks like is increasing...

Maybe should i use a different query? or....

Some suggestion ?

I deploy vcloud 9.5 appliance with SQL  full recovery mode ( plan to use always on for SQL HA) after deploy complete I notice SQL transaction log grow fast event did not register to VC, NSX or create anything, just complete deployment =, log grow around 40 MB /Min

please advise.

Thank you

I have a VApp with a VM in it that shows a "Cannot Stop" message. This is in the status column right under Running. There is a small red X button to the left. What happens if I click on the X? Will this do anything to the running VM? Or is that a simple clearing off of the message?

I am running vCloud Director 9.1 with an NFS datastore mounted for Catalogs.

It all working well except that we need to configure a storage limit for each tenant.

How I do this?

Tenants on vCD 9.1 are unable to attach removable drives from Host to their VM. They typical need this to move files from their Systems to VM.

Is there a solution to this?

I have Tenants in my vCD 9.1 requesting for ability to copy and paste files between host and VMs connected via Web Console or VMware Remote Console (VMRC).

How can I make this possible?

Hello,

Let say that we lose the datastore that host the nsx edge for the tenant, how can recovery the nsx edge ?

We are looking for a solution in order to get back the nsx in this type of scenario.

We have try to present a new datastore in the existing storage policie and try "redeploy" option on the nsx edge, it is not working. It seems that vCD need to access to the existing nsx edge for redeployment.

Best regards

Hi all,

We are building vCD Workflows for our Tenants at our vCD 9.5 environment which they can launch from the ‘Service Library’ of vCD.

In this workflows we want the user to select one of their Virtual Machine at the Presentation layer to perform some modifications.

Before we can collect the Tenants virtual machines and return them to a dropdown box at presentation layer, we of course need to know which Tenant initiated the workflow.

We have found the snippet “System.getContext().getParameter("_vcd_orgName")”, but this only works in the workflow itself.

This code is just returning ‘null’ from the presentation level when we execute this code within an action.

How can we retrieve the initiated orgName in an vRO action script which is building an field of type ‘Predefined list of elements’?   

Our environment versions:

vCD: 9.5.0.11038232

vRO: 7.5.0.10044239
vRO vCD Plugin: 9.5.0.10198325

Hi Guys

I have a cluster with 6 ESXi hosts along with VSAN data store.

My question:-

Can i provide 2 ESXi hosts dedicatedly to one customer(i.e  one organization VDC) from the same 6 node cluster.

When i try to integrate the cluster in to PVDC,i dont see any option there to isolate the ESXi hosts.

Is this option possible ?

Thank you,

Manivel R

Hello,

I know and read that it is possible to migrate workload from a org-VDC (pVDC based on old cluster ESXi) to a new org-VDC (pVDC based on new cluster ESXi) in order to move to new hardware. It is written that it works only with elastic allocated model et PAYG.

And what about reserved model ? Is there any option to move to new hardware with downtime or no downtime ?

Best regards

Hello,

I am currently implementing vCloud with NSX for which below is infra information;

Cluster - Management

> 3 ESXi hosts > Each host with 1 IP address of VLAN-50.> 1 vDS with 2 PGs > Management/vMotion & ProdVM

> This has VMs > vCenter, SQL, NSX manager, NSX controllers, RMQ etc

> I am deciding not to use VxLAN in my Management cluster, using VLAN PG only.

Cluster - Consumer

> 6 ESXi hosts > Each host with 1 IP address of same VLAN-50 > 1 vDS with 3 PGs > Management/vMotion, ConsVMs, VxLAN

> This will host Tenant VMs that end users will be accessing via RDP or SSH

> Tenant VMs should have internet, so they can use internet for searching or download etc.

> Only Tenant VMs will be on different VLAN, i.e. VLAN-60

NSX

1) 1 NSX Manager - given VLAN-50 IP

2) 3 NSX controllers - given VLAN-50 IP

3) VTEP - 1 per host - given VLAN-50 IP

NOTE:

# We have to use only one VLAN, and i.e. this VLAN-50 for the entire management setup

# VLAN-60 only for Tenant VMs

# vDS uplinks are connected to Trunk ports of physical switch

# MTU is set to 9000

# Each host can ping each other VTEP IPs

QUESTION:

For Consumer Cluster:

I will be using VxLAN only for Consumer cluster where tenant VMs will be residing. So for this setup, I need to know configuration steps, design w.r.t to which port groups needs to be created on this vDS and how will be the internal NSX connection be etc.

Thanks

Hello,

I am implementing vCloud Director and have a query regarding its licensing.

What I came to know so far is;

> vCloud Suite licensing is per CPU based

> vCloud Director individual licensing is per VM based.

I have vSphere Enterprise Plus license

But we cannot buy individual vCloud Director license because of some agreement.

I came to know that;

vSphere Ent Plus + vRealize Suite Ent = vCloud Suite License.

So if I buy vRealize Suite Ent, will I be able to use that for vCloud Director setup ?

Thanks,

Hi Guys,

Doubts on vCloud director organization tenant portal

I create a organization called test.

Default organization URL:-

https://mycloud/cloud/org/Test/

When i open this above URL,it is working fine and the same is going through flex interface.

I like to access my organization through new HTML interface.

https://mycloud/tenant/org/Test/ 

When i open this above URL,it is coming through HTML interface login page and I could not able to login.It says authentication error(because the default URL is https://mycloud/cloud/org/Test/ )

How to access the above organization/tenant through new HTML interface? Anything i need to modify ?

Note:- In Tenant portal(administration--Public ip address page)

HTTP base URL:   http://mycloud/tenant

HTTPS REST API base URL:   https://mycloud/tenant

Certificate chain:-   Not given any certificate

2) I could not access the VM through console.It says disconnected.When i inspect this in browser,im seeing "Error in connection"? How to troubleshoot this minor issue?

In VCD:-  vi /opt/vmware/vcloud-director/etc/global.properties.

Thank you in advance,

Manivel RR
