VMs on ESXi 6.5 Host not in synch with Host

Hi there!

 

I have a problem with the time on my vms. They are all running one hour ahead.

Eventhough I started the ntp service with the right time.

 

After a restart of the vms the tme is correct for about a minute then it changes back to the false time.

 

What am I doing wrong?

I fixed it on my own. Atfer a few restarts I was able to fix it by myself.

Check hostd.log and see what it says.

Re: ESXi 6.5 Installer cannot find SSD

I fixed it by myself.

 

I had an adapter which was able to connect the ssd to the host via USB.

Then I installed it there, shut the host down, connect the SSD with SATA again and booted it again.

It works perfectly right now.


Re: TPMVersion=id:00020065, TPMModel=VMware TPM2, TPMManufacturer=id:564D5700

With the Workstation 2017 Preview/Fusion 2017 Preview (aka, Workstation 14 public beta, Fusion 10 public beta), the vmware.log contained two entries

 

vtpm.ekCSR

vtpm.ekCRT

 

I have no idea whether these log entries were carried forward in the final release. Presumably ekCSR stands for endorsement key certificate storage root and ekCRT stands for endorsement key certificate root trust.

 

The virtual TPM 2.0 was software emulation in the beta (a process named tpm2emu would be running if the VM has TPM enabled) regardless if the host hardware has a TPM 2.0 chip, or TPM 1.2 chip or no TPM chip at all. So it would always appear as TPM 2.0 with VMware as the manufacturer ID in tpm.msc in Windows OS.

Hello Nettech1,

 

Please check hostd.log and also look if scratch partition is configured. If downloads folder inside scratch is missing, create that folder and retry the command.

Best way to access and manage shared VM's in Workstation 14

$

0

The way I am currently accessing and managing the VM's on my main computer (Windows 10 host, Workstation 14.0) from my notebook, is to put the VM's under "Shared VM's", have Workstation installed on my notebook and connect using the IP of my main computer.

 

However, I think this means that I need to buy two licenses, of which one is just for remote access. I tried accessing the VM's using VMWare Player, but this gives an error saying it can't connect to the vSphere server.

 

Is the way I am currently doing it the only way, or are there other/better ways to access and manage VM's on a remote computer? I also have Remote Desktop access to the computer, but just using the application in stead of switching to the RD session is much easier.

It must have gotten changed from /tmp which is non-persistent.

Provide some more information about your OVF and the properties it contains. It's a manual deployment via the Flex client successful or not?

From the screenshot, the catch point is Recursive panic on same cpu message on PCPU5 and I suspect hardware issues with the Physical CPU 5. check the hardware diagnostics on the ESXi host. Please see the below Kb explains about the recursive panic for same cpu.

Hello Everyone, i am getting the error "virtual machine creation may fail because agent is unable to retrieve VM creation options from the host" while trying to perform the following actions on vSphere client connected to 3 Hosts ESX 6.0 Cluster, 1) Enable FT for a VM 2) Migrate the VM using vMotion. Ran the site survey and it points to storage and disk errors. Any help or pointers would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Can you connect to the ESXi host directly?

 

If you are seeing storage issues, I suggest checking the vmkernel or vmkwarning log to check if there is any hostd unresponsive messages on that specific host

 

Is FT enabled on the VM?

 

Thanks,

MS
