無法通過 vCenter Server 擴展數據存儲 (2128118)

Symptoms

  • 在 vSphere Client 連接到 vCenter Server 時,無法擴展數據存儲。
  • vCenter Server 不顯示可用的未使用空間。
  • SAN LUN 已擴展,並且在 vCenter Server 中查看時可以看到新的存儲位於“存儲適配器”之下,但通過數據存儲屬性擴展數據存儲時,不顯示可用空間。
  • 在 vSphere Client 直接連接到 ESX 主機時,可以擴展數據存儲。

Resolution

vCenter Server 將調用特定函數以獲取該數據存儲的所有可用數據區。 vCenter Server 獲取數據區後,將在數據區滿足以下條件篩選器時將其顯示為可用:

  • LUNS 不應在該主機或任何其他主機(除了強制掛載的卷之外)上用作數據存儲。
  • LUNS 不應在該主機或任何其他主機上用作原始設備映射 (Raw Device Map, RDM)。

 

  • vCenter Server 應用這些篩選器來停止已由任何其他主機使用的 LUN 上可能的數據損壞。
  • 可以關閉這些篩選器,但 VMware 不建議這麼做。 在對 LUN 篩選器進行任何更改之前,請咨詢 VMware 支持團隊。 有關詳細信息,請參見 Turn off Storage Filters。直接連接到 ESX 主機時,這些篩選器不存在,因此您可以看到這些數據區。

    要解決該問題,請執行以下操作:
    1.使用 vSphere Client 連接到 ESX 主機並以 root 用戶身份登錄。
    2.從 GUI 擴展數據存儲。
    3.重新掃描 vCenter Server 中的所有主機。

使用VMWare’s OVFTool 轉換 vmx 至 ova

參考網址:http://www.mylesgray.com/virtualisation/using-vmwares-ovftool-convert-vmx-ova/

 

這次需要從本機端的 VMware 轉移至 Vsphere,
轉移有許多方法可以實現,
這次使用官方內建的 OVFtool 將 vmx 轉成 ova

1.找尋 ovftool 程式來源

如有安裝 VMware 可以在安裝目錄下
(例:C:Program Files (x86)VMwareVMware WorkstationOVFTool )

2.轉換指令

./ovftool [original .vmx location and filename] [new .ova location and filename]

有點複雜?
舉個例子~~
假設本地vmx位置:    G:ubuntuu.vmx
要儲存的位置:  G:ubt.ova
程式位置:  C:Program Files (x86)VMwareVMware WorkstationOVFToolovftool.exe

執行指令為:

C:Program Files (x86)VMwareVMware WorkstationOVFToolovftool.exe G:ubuntuu.vmx G:ubt.ova

指等待轉換過程成功完成後就可在 G:ubt.ova 看到此檔!

*:此方法一定要先將虛擬機器關機才能轉換哦!

Troubleshooting the Add Storage Wizard error: Unable to read partition information from this disk (1008886)

有時候在新增storage LUN 的時候會出錯,原因是因為ESXi host判斷這個LUN曾被分隔成不同格式,所以不認得,因此要SSH到ESXi裏面,利用 dd 指令把這個新的LUN重新格式化。
