vCloud director integration with Veeam backup v10
Hi Team,
Our management subnet is 10.128.1.0.All the VMs(vcenter server.NSX,VCD DB,VCD,Veeam server etc..) are in the samesubnet "10.128.1.0".
When we try to access the "Veeam self service portal" from vCloud director tenant portal through Private Intranet(After connecting our local VPN connection),its works fine because the VCD VM & Veeam backup VM are in the samesubnet.
When we try to access the "Veeam self service portal" from vCloud director tenant from public internet.Example:-
Lets say "https://fastcloud.com/tenant/manivel". it was not started working.
After configuring NAT( Pointed to Veeam VM) with port 9443 from Network end.It started working and able to see the "Veeam self service portal" from VCD tenant.
Im not sure,Why NAT is required for Veeam server when we access from public internet ?
If we access the Veeam self service portal from vCloud director tenant either from public internet or private intranet,it should talk locally(without NAT) because all are in the samesubnet.
Any one has any ideas?
Thanks,

Re: vCloud Director multi-branding
I'm having the same issue with setting portal color with this script:
Even played around in Postman, but still get 405 error when trying to get the color. Will open case with VMware later on when I have the time..

vCD and PowerCLI - get/set VM Mem reservation?
Hi,
I've been trying to find out where I can read (and hopefully, set) the VM Mem reservation properties for a VM.
It's possible to set via the GUI, but I've yet to find any good PowerCLI magic to do this with.
Any suggestions?

Re: Move VMs out of vApps?
Sorry for the late reply.
My intention was to get rid of any vApps, not to create new ones.. But I guess a hack of the database to hide the vApp would work as well, even though it's a quite ugly hack
↧
Re: Move VMs out of vApps?
"My intention was to get rid of any vApps" <-- you can't really do that, those are central in vCD, there is no VM without a vApp.
Even the "standalone" VMs have a vApp backing them (even though it's not shown in the UI).
↧
Re: Move VMs out of vApps?
You're absolutely correct in that, so the option is to hack the database to hide the vApp in the UI.
↧
Re: Move VMs out of vApps?
obviously, we don't ever recommend people tweak things in the DB directly...
We do have APIs to move things around, it could be a small feature request to have a boolean flag to indicate that the desired end result is a standalone VM.

Re: VCD Console Proxy port load balancing in VCD 10.0 virtual appliance architecture
All we need is a signed certificate for http and console proxy session . Ensure that console proxy certs are identical on all the cells and keep the console proxy VIP in passthrough mode , while http VIP can be terminated . If this is not followed correctly, usually we will end up with issues.

Scripting enabling the Distributed Firewall (DFW)
Hi there
I wonder if anyone in the community wouldn't mind giving me a hand, I'm trying to script enabling the Distributed firewalls within my tenant vdc's. I can logon through the portal and click the enable rocker switch but I would like to script it, either using curl or powershell
I can't seem to find the property within the VDC properties using the VMware.VimAutomation.Cloud cmdlet, maybe I'm looking in the wrong place?
I did find this VMware Documentation Library but I get a 404 when attempting the post. (other queries work)
So I wondered if anyone could give me a steer?
Thanks in advance
Best Regards

Re: Unable to create Tenant Networks after 10.0.0.1 upgrade
Yes, we're seeing this same problem. Unable to create new routed networks. vCD version 10.0.0.1. Just starting to investigate more in depth now..
Out of interest some questions:
- Which version of NSX are you using?
- Are you using NSX logical switch hardware bindings (hardware VXLAN gateways via OVSDB) ? (We're seeing some lines related to hw bindings in the log entries, but not totally sure if those are related to this problem or not).

VMware VM customization reboot removes specific guest customization
I am an application user of Vmware VM . However, after reboot from VCD on customer site, my VM starts to customize itself again.
We have some custom guest customization scripts which sets the server to correct state after creation i.e. creates ifcfg-eth* files, updates hostname etc. However, after most of the reboots, the VM customizes itself again and starts to change other parameters and my application crashes.
We are using teh NFV 1.5 is based on ESXi 6.0 U2. VMs are based on RHEL 7.2.
1. I am not able to find why this happens , as per VMware docs,
"If the virtual machine name and network settings are updated on a virtual machine that has been customized, the next time you power on the virtual machine, it is re-customized".
however I have not changed these properties
2. I see that the /var/log/vmware-imc contains all the logs from this customization, and they are recreated everytime this problem appears and that vmware removes my ifcfg and other entries
3. This problem is not reproducible every time. Also, from one of the vmware blogs below, Understanding Guest Customization , I see that the "Enable Guest Customization" flag is responsible for the same. So, if I disable this "enable guest customization" flag after the guest customization has finished first time , should there be a problem in the same? Our VMs networks , computer name , ifcfg settings are the ones we don't want to change after the VM has been customized once.
If the check box is selected, and the virtual machine's configuration parameters in vCloud Director are out of synch with the settings in the guest OS, the Profile tab on the virtual machines Properties page displays that the settings out of synch with the guest OS and the virtual machine needs guest customization.

Vcloud 9.7
Hi Team,
i have installed VCD 9.7 and would like to configure the windows cluster using sharing disk, how i can share the disk in Vcloud 9.7
↧
Re: Vcloud 9.7
RDMs are not supported in vCloud so traditional MSCS clustering is out. AlwaysOn should work just fine but will require twice as much database storage space.

Assigning IP fromIP pool to VM automatically
Hi guys,
A relative newbie to vCD so please bare with me.
We have client with 2 vDC's linked as a datacenter group with a stretched network spanning the two sites. I have configured an IP Pool in both vDC's and although it assigns an IP to a newly built VM in the vCD GUI it doesn't apply it to the NIC, is there a way to achieve this when building VM's?
Many Thanks.

Re: Assigning IP fromIP pool to VM automatically
Hi there - I presume this is via Cross-VDC Networking? You will need to set up a subset of the IP pool on each site. At this time, there's no "unified" IP pool mechanism to carve out IP's across all connected oVDCs within the DC Group. For example, if my CIDR is 192.168.1.1/24 and I wanted to allocate 192.168.1.100-192.168.1.150 across two sites, I would put in 192.168.1.100-125 at Site-A and 192.168.1.126-150 to Site-B.

Re: Assigning IP fromIP pool to VM automatically
Hi Daniel,
Hope you are well. Thank you for the reponse. Yes this is cross VDC networking.
Yes I have split the pool across the two sites nas you have suggested and the IP's get assinged in the vCD GUI but it still needs manually assigning to the nic when the OS on the machine boots. Is there a way to get the IP to automatically get configured on the nic?
For instance if I want to create 200 VM's I would like to auto IP them from my IP pool so they have instant network connectivity, automatically.
Hope that makes sense.
Thanks,
Lee
