As I posted earlier, I have upgraded my lab from VMware vSphere 4.1 to VMware vSphere 5.0; during this upgrade (clean installation in some parts) I added 3rd NICs to hosts and created two vSwitch with one VMKernel for management and storage connection (multipathing) and one dvSwitch for some special VMs and features (FT Logging and vMotion). For [...]

I had a problem in my home lab for some times (about several days) but I didn’t find times to look over it. I planned some clean up to do for tonight, this one was one of them; I’ve two physical hosts which I added them to the vCenter; for some reason they disconnected automatically and [...]
Well, this post going to have some technical information but it’s more like a document on “what’s happened and what should do”. Our company has multiple “data center design and support” project and three days ago there was disaster in one of them. Customer site consist of: One “HP EVA 8400 – 2C4D” as storage [...]
Some times, for some reason (like for rearrangement in my case) system administrator wants to change the host location and move one (or more) host from one cluster to the other, to do so, the host should be remove from first cluster and join to the other.

Base on my previous post, this would be another post in my VCAP-DCA Preparation series (DCAS). It’s about storage and how to add new storage (iSCSI) to the hosts. Condition: There is two ESXi 4.1 hosts with one NIC, one vSwitch (vSwitch0) and two VMKernel port (vmk0 & vmk1) and both have their local datastores [...]
Again, I have new goal and I want to rearrange my home lab to meet the requirements for it. This time my goal is “VCAP4-DCA” certification and I have to use different kind of tools for preparation. As one of my PC stop working (one of my two Physical host – whitebox), I have to [...]
