Is there a document which explains the process... I understand removing and adding hosts is a simple process but would prefer to read a documents which explains this "specific" scenario... There might be other caveats around this process apart from losing the Performance stats!

vCops orphan objects not clearing
Hello everyone,
Im working with a vCops 5.7 vApp version on a client, and in order to clear orphaned objects faster i found this KB to lower the values.
VMware KB: Removing non-existent virtual machines from the vCenter Operations Manager vApp
The problem is, i cant find this variable inside the controller.properties file.
deletionPeriodHours or deletionPeriod
I changed both of the other variables, and objects didn't dissapear. It would make sense if its using the default value because its 15 days and it hasn't been 15 days since we made the change.
This is a vCops 5.0 (i think) upgraded to 5.6 and then upgraded to 5.7.
I checked on the vCops 5.6 (upgraded to 5.7) in our infraestructure and the variable deletionPeriodHours does appear.
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance.

Re: View Smartcard Redirection
hi - sorry for joining the thread late - I hope i can help;
when the problem presents;
- can you see the device in the View Client Menu?
- does USB redirection of other devices work (eg a usb storage device)?
if you can't see the device in the menu, then it could be that it is being blocked. Smartcard type devices are blocked by default.
Normally, smartcard type devices are better redirected using smartcard redirection. For this to work you need to install the smartcard option on the Guest VM during the View Agent install process. And, you must be using PCoIP.
However, if you don't want to use this feature (or it doesnt work for your specific device) and you need to use USB redirection, then you may need to enable the use of smartcard devices via USB.
On the agent vm (or AD etc) launch the GPO editor, and make sure that smartcards are set to "enabled".
close the client, and re-launch. From then, the device should present in the menu available for forwarding.
Let me know if this works. If not, then I may need to see some extracts from the client logs to help see whats happening,
cheers

Re: Connect-VIServer fails
the above method only picks up the vCenterIP and not other values for Username and password variable.

Re: Failing to navigate to plugin registration page after deploying vApp
Not sure if you're seeing error message in the first boot log. If the boot up has any problem, it probably cause the registration deployment error. If you can post the log files under /opt/serengeti/logs directory together with the tomcat log /opt/serengeti/tomcat6/logs/catalina.out, as Zach said, it would be helpful to figure out the problem.
thanks

Easy way to duplicate security roles
Hi guys, would you happen to know an easier way of duplicating a security role? I hope to save time in clicking manually every single access to be given. If I can make templates, much better.
Btw, we're using v9.1.4. Thanks!

Re: VMmark latest edition applied
Rebecca,
1) Virtualclient2, yes, the PATH wrong, fixed
2). I do not know what is client0, please see my screenshots below, there are all the vms in my cluster, and "DeployTemplate" is the template.
I do NOT have a vm call "client0"
I do have a "Primeclient" is a physical PC. (not show in here)
I do have another "VirtualClient2" vm is not in this cluster.
May I know what is client0 you are looking for? another vm, I did miss one? ....
3) I am totally confused. I have the vm's IP as below, you want me change the hosts file, could you please give me an example
| oliodb0 | 10.1.80.164 |
| olioweb0 | 10.1.80.165 |
| ds2db0 | 10.1.80.166 |
| ds2weba0 | 10.1.80.167 |
| ds2webB0 | 10.1.80.168 |
| ds2webC0 | 10.1.80.169 |
so, I need to edit hosts file on vm: olioweb0, ds2weba0, ds2webb0 and ds2webc0
to add one line like:
10.1.80.164 olio-db
is that correct?
Thanks

Re: VDP backup performance over NBD
Didn't say anything about speed. I don't think the limit of NFC connection and the 32MB buffer will cap a single VM backup at 20MB/s.

Re: SRM 5 with netapp SRA, FCOE to iSCSI site with RDM
- Yes
- Yes
- I would recommend if possible have an AD Domain controller already running at the DR site - this can be a VM
- Yes the PROD site domain controller can be physical
- I would keep it all consistent so so all iSCSI -

Re: Connect-VIServer fails
You try it without username and password parameter and see if it prompts you for one. if it does, it means it got the correct value from the DB for the vCenter part.
You then need to do the same for Username and Password.
$realvCenterIP = (Write-outPut $vCenterIP).vCenterIP
$realvCenterUser = (Write-outPut $vCenterUser).vCenterUser
$realvCenterPassword = (Write-outPut $vCenterPassword).vCenterPassword
Use that to do the Connect-Viserver
Connect-VIServer -Server $realvCenterIP -User $realvCenterUser -Password $realvCenterPassword

Re: how to set up vmware channel between primary and secondary vCenter servers on two different ESXi hosts
> I think it's physical network layer issue, I don't think there is a mis-configuration on VMware layer, maybe firewall between datacentres?
Firewall between data centers? How do I get around that? Turn off firewall on both ESXi hosts? Any other possibilities?
Also, if it's firewall between the datacenters, why do the public/mgmt IPs on primary and secondary work?
BTW, I am using vDS for ESXi management as well and configured Channel network vNICs (for both primary and secondary)
on the newly created vDS. However, the Channel network is still NOT working.

Re: how to set up vmware channel between primary and secondary vCenter servers on two different ESXi hosts
Also, I've noticed the netmask is different on the two esxi hosts. Would that make a difference?
172.x.x.x (netmask: 255.255.255.0)
10.x.x.x (netmask: 255.255.240.0)
Is that possible that something needs to be enabled on the physical adapters? Or, there is gateway somewhere that needs to
configured for Channel network? (BTW, I did a 'tracert' on my primary and secondary servers; the traceroute used the default
gateway for my public/mgmt IP.)

Re: How to do a random linkage of child VMDK
Hi Andre,
Thanks for the reply.
I use VDDK 5.1.1. In docs i see two API's VixDiskLib_Reparent and VixDiskLib_Combine. How can i use these API's ?
And one more question,
While creating a child disk is this sequence possible
1. Create a disk using VixDiskLib_Create(with parentpath specified in the appglobals) instead of VixDiskLib_CreateChild.
2. Use VixDiskLib_Attach to attach the created disk to a parent? (assume the created disk contains only the changed block data).
The VDDK documentation spcifies "Attaching an arbitrary child in a disk chain". Can someone tell me is the above implementation valid - if not how can a arbitray child be added in a disk chain?
/Thanks.
