    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    VMworld 2018 is over. As always I'm leaving with lots of great impressions and lots of content to digest and further explore over the coming weeks. I think it has been even clearer after this year that VMware is focusing on their Cloud strategy together with partners like AWS and IBM, that vSAN is the storage solution …

    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    This week I've been playing in our vCenter lab and tested the upgrade to 6.7 U1 and also changing the deployment type to vCenter with embedded PSC. I must say that the vCenter team has done a great job on the upgrade process over the last year. Both our migration from the Windows vCenter to the VCSA as well as the …

    Recently we received lots of new hardware destined for a customer that has multiple locations world-wide. They need a robust server solution for their production environments locally.

    Recently there was a new release of Telegraf, a monitoring agent from the guys that built InfluxDB. This new version, 1.8.0, comes with a plugin for vSphere which I'm pretty excited about! Previously I've been testing Telegraf for monitoring some Linux VMs and also my InfluxDB servers and the agent works as expected …

  • HPE iLO affects ESXi management agents - hosts in "not responding"

    calendar Aug 27, 2018 (Last modified: May 3, 2025)bug hardware oneview vcenter  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    The last months we have had several issues with ESXi hosts going in a "Not responding" status. The VMs are still active and online in this scenario, but the ESXi cannot be managed. This also affets backup as it won't be able to reach the VMs through the APIs. Previously we have normally just restarted the management …

    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    For a long time, actually since we migrated to the VCSA in 6.5 last year, I've wanted to utilize the REST API in the appliance to have some monitoring of them. For several reasons I've had to put that on hold, one of them being that there seems to be something wrong with the back-end authentication calls. I get …

    When trying to upgrade our lab vcenter from 6.5 to 6.7 this week we encountered a strange error. Our lab environement is running vSphere 6.5 on VCSA and we are running with an external PSC.

    After the release of the new and shiny version 4.1 of HPE OneView we have tried to upgrade one of our (smaller) OneView instances. The update process is usually quite straight forward and it gets better in every release. The upgrade to 4.0 from 3.x had some issues with certificate handling post-upgrade, but it was …
