While going thorough the vCenter configuration advance setting parameters, I have found below parameters related to the vCenter Database that gets triggered when an event occur. My question here is, what parameters does vCenter 6.5 support for the database health alarm to be triggered
vpxd.vdb.space.errorPercent
config.vpxd.vdb.space.checkIntervalSec
vpxd.vdb.space.warningPercent
config.vpxd.vdb.space.warningMB value
config.vpxd.vdb.space.alertMB value
Thanks

Ok, I am going to give this a try. I am skeptical based on the fact this solution makes perfect sense. Seems like it should definitely work. I figure that means there is about 90% likelihood of continuing agony. That beats 100%, so I am in.
And that goes even before counting the good times sure to come with breaking my computer's integrity, YES!!
One thing I am wondering about, I think I am going to have to print those commands and.... umm.... I must be missing something.... those commands have to be like .... typed in? With a keyboard? There is no way that can be a possible requirement.
I knew I should not have ditched that keyboard I had.
**** thinking to what I saw earlier today in the Recovery Mode *****
I really don't see a way around this .....
ah ha! YESS!!
I'll save the commands in a txt file that I can ...
...open and
.
.
....copy from
.
.
.
.in Terminal!
***ok, looking around at all the staring faces in here..... *** everybody else already knew that one, didn't they?
back in half hour.... if my computer still is booting at that point.
Seriously, I appreciate the effort you put into finding that solution.
Hello,
Answering your question, yes no problem to Unregister/Register VM with different disks. it will work properly and bring the all disks.
But as note, within the same cluster you can benefit from the vMotion/svMotion.
I don’t see any reasons why that would not work. Clients are somewhat unaware of the responding UAG, as from their point of view they just connect to the public VIP on the SLB, the same that the hostname resolves to.
All the network address translations happening behind the SLB on the path are never exposed to clients. And you don’t need to worry about connection servers or their certificates. All TLS is proxied on the UAG, i.e. UAG creates an another TLS session against connection server not passthroughing the existing one.
Hi,
This error probably comes because the space occupied is 100%.

Hello,
Are you able to provide some details on the setup of this? I was able to successfully configure it on the vmware connection server but I want to configure it at the UAG instead.
I have enabled the RADIUS on the UAG:
Auth Type PAP
Shared Secret: *******
Radius Server Host Name: IP of on-prem Azure MFA server
Auth Port: 1812
Added the Internal IP of the UAG to the Azure MFA Server Radius Client list and matched the Shared Secrets. When I connect to the UAG I get standard logon prompt. Username; Password; Domain list.
My answer would have been more along the lines of:
Well if you are seeing cpu latency and you are actively blocking out 10ghz to vm2 (making it unavailable to any other vm), and increasing the share value to vm2. Then when vm1 makes a request for cpu resources there is a higher chance that it is going to get denied and you end up with cpu latency as a result (more or less dependent on the load or requests from vm2 and vm1, basically more so when both are above 50% vcpu usage). So basically you should have purchased a server with more available cores...Or, you need to drop the reservation and equalize the share value (or potentially just equalize the share value). Or simply drop the number of cores being handed to the VMs such that they can split up the physical CPUs equally rather then thrashing over some of them.
I would think dropping from 14 to 10* cores would fix it as well...but that's a little bit of a close shave if the vm1 needs a lot of processing power. It just kinda depends on how much the latency is causing additional higher looking cpu usage right?
Would any of you have further thoughts given my answer(s)?
Hi,
for iso customization you should post the server brand and model.
Alessandro Romeo
Im not sure if i worded that right, im not running this on a server but instead an intel Nuc (NUC6CAYH). I only need to customize the iso because it wont detect the network adapter upon installation...
Ok!
this should help you:

if I run the command to check the datastore GPT manually from a putty session, it is showing as corrupt.
But, in the script output, the GPT result showing good (which means the script giving wrong result in the output file). Can you help to correct this please.
my doubt is, when ever the script tries to connect to the ESXi host with the given credentials in the script and if it is unable to authenticate, it is publishing the previous result to the current host. (hope I explained better, but, please let me know if don't understand)
kindly help here...
I have the same issue working with windows 10 host and several virtual machines bridging over the wifi adapter of my laptop. Doing troubleshooting I install wireshark to see the packets detail. The problem is that the mac address of any virtual machine is using the host mac address (I don't know why) maybe a bug. So for all other pc's working in the same LAN arp mapping for any VM correspond to the mac address of the host. I will try the advice posted here to see if this help and let you know.
I'd further some of that...regarding how cpu requests are made in 6.5+.
If i'm requesting 14 cores (and i haven't changed the advanced options), because its greater then or equal to 10 cores, it is going to be split in to 2 numa nodes of 7 and 7. So what does that mean when you have another request for 10 cores, with the changes to reservation and shares? I assume it still gets split in to 2 numa nodes of 5 and 5, and that one of those 5's gets almost all of the vcpu it wants all of the time (due to the reservation of 10ghz, and at 2.2ghz * 5 or 11ghz for one numa node), but then the rest gets whatever it wants most of the time due to the increased share value.
So taking a step back...
10 cores * 2 sockets
numa nodes: 4 nodes, 1 at nn at 5 cores, another at 5 cores, 7 cores and 7 cores, for the two vm's.
Lets say, nn 1 goes to CPU socket 1, and nn 2 goes to CPU socket 2...
Socket 1 gets:
nn 1
nn 3
Socket 2 gets:
nn 2
nn 4
nn3 requests CPU, but can't get any because 10ghz on socket 1 is already taken and can't be given out...so it then requests resources from Socket 2...On socket 2 it asks for resources, but its now fighting against nn2 which has a higher share value and nn4 which is requesting a high % of resources already...
It may be that its smart enough to realize that putting nn1 and 2 on the same socket may be the best option overall, but even then...it still runs poorly right (since you have 2 nn asking for 7 cores on a 10 core socket)...
I ran DF -h on all three machines
Last thing I did was start failover and then updated the peer server.
Also the HA is in maint mode still
Should I restart them all? if so which order? passive peer witness???
thanks for the script. However, it is missing to list the "host names" and Time1 and Time2 and Host2 information.
Hi,
If you have to shut down and reboot all nodes in the cluster, you must follow a specific shutdown order to prevent the Passive node from assuming the role of Active node.

Solution in my case for anyone who comes across a similar issue was to do with permissions preventing sysprep from running:
(Ripped from another thread on an MS forum)
Well, if the Linux.iso image is present, then you can manually install it. Just edit the CD-ROM settings and select "Image File", and browse to the Linux.iso image. Check the connected box. Then in the guest, run the setup steps in the Guest OS Guide/manual.
