Hi Guys
Where can I assign a second external IP address (same subnet) to an OrgvDC EdgeGW?
I can sub-allocate a secondary IP, but it doesent work. i think i have to assign the IP first to the OrgvDC. but where?
i want to have (example) 1.1.1.115 AND 1.1.1.117 AND, who knows, 1.1.1.125 on the same Edge Gateway.
thanks for help
greets
Hi,
Go the the Sub-Allocate IP and add more IP addresses there.

As others stated, vCloud Director is not part of any vCloud suite model.
vCD is a restricted product. If you have a specific use case that requires vCD, please work with your VMware account team to see what options are available.
i tryed this before. but the problem was the firewall rule.. sorry, guys.
Then we have no choice. Will have to go for VCPP for vCloud director license.
But how to go for VCPP thing, any idea?
You can find more information here: VMware Cloud Provider Program
But please note that this will change your entire licensing. You will have to pay monthly for the consumed resources and need an appliance (vCloud Usage Meter) to measure the consumption.
I would strongly recommend that you talk to a license distributor and your VMware Sales Rep about this in advance.
The only way to purchase vCloud Director (or to give it it's correct name - vCloud Director for Service Providers) is to become a member of the VCPP program. vCloud Suite includes vRealise Automation, which is NOT vCloud Director.
Trying to add an on-premise 5.5 update 3b vCenter in vCloud Director Extender 1.1.0.3 and getting "Error Code 401 Error in creating VC connection with login scheme : SAML and for user :" with every account I've tried. The accounts are valid and they work on every 6.5 vCenter I have but all the 5.5 U3 ones give me this error when I try to add them to the on-prem vCDE appliance. I have vCDE running and have migrated a VM successfully but only from a 6.5 vCenter. Anyone have any ideas on this error with 5.5 U3 vCenters? The matrix says it's supported from 5.5 U3 and newer. The 5.5 hosts are all U3 as well. Some U3 and some U3f.
Our vCD 9.5.0.1 environment is still rather basic as far as customers are concerned, and all VMs are automatically discovered by adding them to the appropriate Org VDC resource pool in vCenter.
One import failed, with the error:
The operation could not be performed because the object is in an invalid state.
vCenter Server task (moref: task-5205193) failed in vCenter Server 'vcenter.razorblue.net.uk' (bfa93e99-ff0e-4ec7-86c2-60306f038e67).
- The operation is not allowed in the current state.
This is also the same error on the task in vCenter. I cleaned up the Discovered vApp by removing permissions from the VM for the vCD service account per Tom Fojta's blog and simply deleting the vApp, which appears to have left the VM in a somewhat stale state as far as vCD is concerned.
When running debug-auto-import in the cell-management-tool I am advised:
1) Virtual machine is already imported in vCD or is managed by vCD.
2) Virtual machine is not present in a vCD managed resource pool.
The second point only shows up when the VM is not a member of the resource pool, after I've manually moved it back to the cluster root. The first point remains whether it is part of the resource pool or not.
The vcloud-container-debug.log shows:
2019-03-12 15:33:32,335 | WARN | VC-bfa93e99-ff0e-4ec7-86c2-60306f038e67Listener (948) | ComputeFabricImpl | Resource-Pool change of VM [vcId=bfa93e99-ff0e-4ec7-86c2-60306f038e67, moref=vm-152522] from [vcId=bfa93e99-ff0e-4ec7-86c2-60306f038e67, moref=resgroup-86937] to [vcId=bfa93e99-ff0e-4ec7-86c2-60306f038e67, moref=resgroup-929496] in VC is not supported because the source and destination resource pools are not part of same elastic PVDC |
...however I'm not sure I actually want to make them part of the elastic PVDC, given resgroup-86937 is the "Resources" pool of the cluster and resgroup-929496 is the Org VDC pool
Can anybody advise how to clean up the VM from VCD, given it is currently not part of a vApp? Presumably I need to edit the database to remove references of the VM (which I can do comfortably, given instructions), but trying to piece together various blogs online relating to changing morefs etc is proving challenging!
Many thanks
Hi Guys,
vCloud director || Tenant portal CPU/Memory/Storage customization
I logged in as a organization administrator in tenant portal "https://myvcd/tenant/test"
I have few doubt on new HTML5 interface of vcloud director.While creating a VM in new HTML5 tenant interface,i could not able to customize the CPU/memory.storage size.For example,i need to enter 10 GB for linux VM which is not available to enter.
However in the old Flash interface,i see the option to enter whatever i want(for example 10 GB HD for test VM). Is there any options available to do this in HTML5 tenant interface ?
Thanks,
Manivel RR
Kia Ora,
Deploying 1.0.3 vCD Extender as an OVA using vCenter 6.5. Enter the appropriate details during Deploy from OVA Q&A, deploy, power on. Console directs you to hit ip/ui/mgmt/ url.
When i go to this URL it immediately provides a response screen in the browser with "Internal Error: Please Contact the Administrator".
Anybody else experience this or solved it ?
thanks.
Hello!
I have 2 clusters of hosts with two different type of CPU. 2.6 GHz and 3.0 GHz (2670 and 2690v2)
My client want a bunch of VMs with 2.6 GHz and some VMs with 3.0 GHz in the same vAPP
Organization vDC is "Pay as you go"
vCloud 9.5.0
vCPU limit is set to 2.6 GHz in the client vDC.
I dont understand how to do that. Help me please, what should i configure to solve this?
Hi all,
Where can we find vCloud Director 9.5 SDK for .NET? Last one we could source is for vCD 8.10 which is unfortunately deprecated for 9.5. I found libraries from PowerCLI but there is no samples how to use it:
C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\VMware.VimAutomation.Cloud
Thanks,
Matt
Hi Manivel,
You can customise hardware configuration by pressing customize button
You won't be able to achieve this as each cluster is its own resource pool. Beside resource pool separation (which this is exactly what you wish to achieve) you can still have two vApps within the same network. Create new network on the organisation level.
Hi,
Thanks for reply.
My question is:-
When im creating a new VM(lets see OS drive(C) only.It is coming 40 GB,80 GB,160 GB etc...),i could not see any option to customize.Suppose if i want to give only 100 GB to OS drive,there is no option to provide.
Note:- Apart from C drive(OS drive),it is possible to provide whatever i want(lets see D drive is 50 GB).
Thanks,
Manivel R
Yea looks like you can't put the custom values. Your tenant can use Flash portal to do more customisable settings. Hope new version will have more options.
I have raised this with the Product development team on a number of occasion, they may even take note one day
there are improvements in this area in the 9.7 release of VCD
Hi,
i'm playing around with the new datacenter group feature.
Finaly i got it working, but i have several failed "datacenter groups" left which cannot be deleted.
I already restarted all cells, but they are visible...
