rename VMware storage adapter

GDow — Wed, 13 Jul 2011 13:39:52 +0000

Added several HBA’s to an ESXi host – is there a way to rename them from “vmhba#” to something else, and where is that done? Looked through Vsphere client and couldn’t see anything.

Vsphere Cluster

KALAKAAR — Fri, 20 Aug 2010 15:04:36 +0000

I have 4 ESX hosts,configured with HA and DRS on VMware Vsphere.DRS is configured for fully automation. Each ESX host has 10VM’s. When one of the ESX host fails(maybe any reason),

a) will the VM’s get rebooted to any of the other 3 hosts(coz of HA) and then DRS will optimize the resources ?

b) or will Vmotion happen(coz of DRS)?

Basically am trying to find out if the VM’s would reboot/restart at all ?

Seperate VMware Infrastructure for Linux?

Ejs — Thu, 06 May 2010 15:11:54 +0000

We have a fairly large deployment of Windows guests (a few thousand) in our VMware environment and are starting to grow our Linux (Red Hat and Suse) population. Since our Linux servers are normally larger (4 processor Plus) and would leverage different code in shared memory would it make sense to deploy seperate farms for the Linux infrastructure?
