Renaming a Network Interface in VMWare Fusion

$
0
0

I am working with some images with complex multiple network interfaces. I would like to rename the VNIC to match the Guest VM interface name.

Is there anyway to rename from network and network1 to eth0, fastethernet0 etc. I'm OK GUI or digging into config files.

 

I was looking though some old posts (circa 2015) and back then there was no GUI option. I am unsure if this is still true.

 

 

I am on Fusion Pro 11.0.3. I attached a .png showing what I need.

 

Thanks in advance,

Neal

It is happening again right now.  Started at 850am.  Here are the live logs.

Cool thanks for the tip.  We have another team here that has a script that renames Mac images, but they don't use vRA, they use something more customized, so that script could work when I find the workflow to use thru vRO.

Which monitoring tool are you using?

 

There are 100's of connections to DB:

 

2019-04-05 17:08:31.617 UTC 5ca78b8f.9110 0 VCDB vc FATAL:  remaining connection slots are reserved for non-replication superuser connections

Please share output of below command:

cat /storage/db/vpostgres/postgresql.conf | grep -i "max_connections"

 

netstat -tulnap | grep -i 443 --> And check if there are several connections from specific IP

*moved to Player forum*

The issue you're hitting is because you have security features enabled on Windows that block 3rd party hypervisor applications from running.

 

To work around it, you must disable Credential Guard and/or Device Guard, just like the error message states.

The link from the error should provide instructions on how to do that.

 

Did you click it and perform the instructions?

 

Did your PC come from an employer, or did it come from the factory with this setting enabled?

Did you install VMware Tools from Workstation or did you install with apt-get install open-vm-tools-desktop?

 

VMware Tools is the key for all the areas you're referring to.

One way to address this issue is to increase max_connections to 250, restart vCSA and monitor.

If this doesn't help contact VMware support.

I find that hard to understand, you showed that you got 2 MoRefs returned.
So at least 2 Scheduled Tasks should be there.

Downtime outside of business and reporting hours is acceptable, I have a decent window for maintenance and such.  I'm assuming the "vmkfstools" command needs ran from the particular hosts console?  Upon completion, the space differential between what is fully allocated now as a thick disk vs what is being used will be automatically available to the VMware environment?  Since these are Windows partitions, once the steps you listed are completed, is there anything else that is needed to be done to the Windows OS for the partition to show correctly?  Thanks!

So I tested the VMware Converter Standalone product and while it worked, it took it's own sweet time, and maybe that is due to how I have it setup.  I installed the Converter software on a physical server, and created a new task to do a V2V conversion of a Win2008R2 server with a 60GB hard drive, shrinking that hard drive down to 40GB on a different LUN on the same SAN.  While the process worked, it took about an hour and 45 minutes.  Would this process be sped up if the Converter application was installed on a guest server that is part of the VMware environment?

Usually this comes from the application-level, one of more services connecting to PostgreSQL are visibly not releasing connections, causing the amount of connections to run out.

 

Attach vpxd and vpxd-profiler logs, we can track the client IP from these logs.

Hi Joe,

 

Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with the administration of our VMs as I'm just an end user.

What I do know is that before updating to the latest Horizon client, it used to work fine.

VMware App Volumes 2.13.2 Release Notes

 

Resolved Issues

  • A recalculation operation performed in a Microsoft Excel application (that was installed in base) takes twice the time when an Appstack is attached.
  • On upgrading from App Volumes 2.12.1 to 2.13.1, machines created with the same name as machines that were marked as offline in the database prior to upgrade, throw a "virtualization disabled" error at login.
  • The PATH environment variable does not retain all the path strings captured during provisioning.
  • Writable volume space is getting filled up automatically even when users do install any applications or modify the user profile, leading to low writable disk space.
  • Occurrence of blank screen upon disconnect and reconnect of View sessions.
  • When there are agent machines online for more than 1 year, the message "Server error" is displayed on opening the Online Entities tab in App Volumes Manager and no Online Entities data is seen.

@nschilp This is a specific vsphere issue, any persona sync issues are different. You may want to post directly in the horizon sub forum about that.

Hi John,

 

Thanks for your switch recommendation. We will care them in next investment.

By the way second recommendation of Cisco related to my case is to increase connected ports to backbone switches. Because my servers connected to Nexus, Nexus connected to Catalyst6500 with 2 ports in port-channel. these 2 ports are congested ports, and so it is applying back pressure to end devices.

We will increase the count of ports or replace the switches.
