That wasn't the issue, it looks like I am not setting up the websockets properly with the reverse proxy.
The vms are perfectly accessible if accessed internally without going through NGINX, or a single vm can be accessible from outside if the ports are forwarded in the router to the vm directly.
Did the dd command fail with an I/O error ?
In that case I would suggest to do the following:
go to the directory with putty and run the command
vmkfstools -p 0 name-flat.vmdk >> mapping.txt
attach the mapping.txt to your next reply
I will create a different dd-command then.

Dear Team,
Just wanted to know how 2 vVLANs communicate wit each other.
for example i have 2 VLANs on a router
VLAN1 10.10.10.1
VLAN2 20.20.20.1
By default can 2 different VLANs VMs can communicate with each other. or we have to do somthing extra on the router.
Not: This question is related to the physical router not logical router.
Sorry, no idea. But maybe someone over in the PowerCLI community forum can help ?
As long as the default gateway of the VMs is the router ip address, the VMs can communicate because the router forwards the packets received from one vla to the other as it knows both subnets which are directly connected.
Hi,
I've read few articles about possible storage performance issues on ESX 5.5+ versions, which probably apply also to my fresh 6.5 standalone install, whic has very bad storage performance. This is the article I came across and triggered my mind: https://www.opvizor.com/esxi-6-5-storage-performance-issues-and-fix/
I need to migrate few VMs from one local store to another local store. It is LOCAL storage on LSI RAID controller, consisting of few RAID6 arrays (with SAS 10k drives) and few RAID10 arrays (with SSD drives). But performance is not a joy, for example:
copying 650GB from SAS to SSD array takes some 10 hours, which averages in some 18 MB/s (150 Mbps), which is almost as slow as my internet link! But copy goes from local store to local store within the same ESX 6.5 host!
So, I am thinking about DISABLING one of the drivers, but I am not sure if I can do it safely - this box is in production!
When I list drivers I see:
[root@ESX2:~] esxcli software vib list | grep ahci sata-ahci 3.0-22vmw.650.0.0.4564106 VMW VMwareCertified 2017-04-27 vmw-ahci 1.0.0-34vmw.650.0.14.5146846 VMW VMwareCertified 2017-04-27 [root@ESX2:~] esxcli software vib list | grep lsi lsi-mr3 6.912.12.00-1OEM.650.0.0.4240417 Avago VMwareCertified 2017-04-27 lsiprovider 500.04.V0.61-0007 LSI VMwareAccepted 2017-04-27 lsi-msgpt2 20.00.01.00-3vmw.650.0.0.4564106 VMW VMwareCertified 2017-04-27 lsi-msgpt3 12.00.02.00-11vmw.650.0.0.4564106 VMW VMwareCertified 2017-04-27 lsu-lsi-lsi-mr3-plugin 1.0.0-7vmw.650.0.0.4564106 VMware VMwareCertified 2017-04-27 lsu-lsi-lsi-msgpt3-plugin 1.0.0-6vmw.650.0.0.4564106 VMware VMwareCertified 2017-04-27 lsu-lsi-megaraid-sas-plugin 1.0.0-7vmw.650.0.0.4564106 VMware VMwareCertified 2017-04-27 lsu-lsi-mpt2sas-plugin 2.0.0-5vmw.650.0.0.4564106 VMware VMwareCertified 2017-04-27
Via web console under STORAGE --> ADAPTERS I can find those:
vmhba0 Wellsburg AHCI Controller Unknown vmw_ahci vmhba1 Wellsburg AHCI Controller Unknown vmw_ahci vmhba2 MegaRAID SAS Invader Controller Unknown lsi_mr3
What I don't figure out is which driver is in use for STORAGE and which one I could try to DISABLE?
Also, my concern is, if I somehow disable WRONG driver and my ESX won't boot up...huh, what then?
Any ideas, suggestions from experts?
I would certainly like to do that. However, I am actually having some difficulty finding where to download the appliance from. I'll keep digging/searching through vmware's website, but if you happen to have the link/URL, that would help a lot
Hi,
Could you please let me know is the any installation manual (step-by-step) for installing vCloud NFV 2.0.1?
Thank you

You can do this if you use the ContextPropertyService to load the groups and extract their contents. You can use either the plugin scripting classes (via vCACCAFEHost.createPropertyClient().getContextPropertyGroupService() ) or by using the REST API directly.
API doc for vCACCAFEContextPropertyGroup - vRO API Explorer by Dr Ruurd and Flores of ITQ
The only trick is to be careful to load the property groups into a Properties object in the order specified on the Blueprint/Component . This way you'll be accurately respecting any overridden property that might appear in more than one group

Hi,
You can put a checkbox in the "Product configuration" if you want to the Workstation 12 install to be more pristine.
It will clear things such as your network configuration and preferred settings you might have made in the GUI.
There's absolute no harm in remembering the product license information. It just remembers your license key. There's also no harm in putting a checkbox there as you can always re-activate by re-entering the license key.

I've seen this with each release of the UAG. They will update the documentation and usually within 1-2 weeks we see the actual release. Keep an eye on the UAG documentation site to see when it's released.
Unified Access Gateway Documentation
There are also third-party product releases trackers that are handy to follow.
I see - you booted that host into Linux ?
Please create the dump for that partition that has the VMFS-filesystem
What I just did not try to do and all in vain. But it turned out to be simple. I wouldn't have thought of that.
Your piece of advice was very helpfull. Thanks a lot.
I followed the instructions in this guide to add the disk to my Windows 2016 server guest VM.
How to passthrough SATA drives directly on VMWare ESXI 6.5 as RDMs · GitHub
So, the drive appears and it recognizes the size in Windows. However, the problem is that it shows as a RAW partition in Windows although the drive has data in it. I don't recall if it is formatted as NTFS or exFAT, but the partition scheme is GPT. The drive is 4TB and has a single partition.
Any ideas?

On Mac it's El Capitan.
Hi,
Ok, a windows 10 guest should support "clean up".
Do you have any snapshots open?
That sometimes does hide a lot of space that can be reclaimed.
Note that "Autoprotect snapshots" also fall into this category.

Results in Management Network not restarted
Is this normal?
This is on a Dell Poweredge T110, checking a client system find this error. Saw some articles on a bad flash reader specific to HP, and others after upgrading to 6.x but nothing about what it's really telling me. Is the USB boot drive going (or gone) bad? Something else? If the system reboots, is it going to be able to start?
Thanks for any input or suggestions.

Hi DigitalclipsVM,
The development team is aware of this issue and working on the solution as high priority task, we are deeply sorry for any inconvenience caused.

We have three vms in an isolated network using the standard vswitch, where the switch is configured as promiscuous mode。 We run a http server in one VM and a http client in another VM, and use the third VM to capture the traffic of the two。It seems the packets captured are out of order sometimes, for example the tcp data ack comes before the data packet, and that may cause errors when reassemble the http payload. Do you encounter this issue before?
