Update vCenter Server Appliance 6.0.0 U1 to U1b via Webinterface

25. January 2016 / / 0 Comments

In my article http://blog.ganser.com/975 I described the update from the first version of vCenter Server Appliance 6 to the Update 1. The update needs to connect an ISO image and CLI commands to be installed.

In vCenter Server Appliance you could go the same way or update via Webinterface.

On January 22nd VMware Release Notes added a hint, what to do if the installer stuck at 70%. Read more at the end of my install steps.

21. January 2016 / / 2 Comments

Since December 3rd Let’s Encrypt is in Public Beta. I’m testing and using Let’s Encrypt for my virtual services in my homelab. Let’s Encrypt creates certificates with a lifetime of 90 days. Some of you will say: UH! that’s not pretty long.

I will show you my way to automate the process by the example of my KEMP Loadbalancer.

The check and renew process could be used for many solutions, not only to deploy to KEMP VLM.

Install KEMP Virtual Load Balancer

11. January 2016 / / 0 Comments

Since 2013 I am using Citrix Netscaler both at work and for my homelab. At work we have Netscaler SDX which have much power and throughput. For my homelab I am using the free Netscaler VPX with a maximum throughput of 5Mbps. @MarcHuppert gave me a hint to checkout the LoadBalancer from KEMP technologies. In the free community version of VLM you get 20Mbps throughput which would be enough for homelabs and testing in production.

It was easy to install the appliance and the initial configuration was done in minutes. In the next days I will post how to add virtual services and content switching.

*FIXED* – ESXi 6.0 and 6.0 U1 – CBT Bug creates inconsistent incremental VM backups

25. November 2015 / / 0 Comments

VMware acknowledged a known issue (KB2136854) within ESXi 6.0 and 6.0 U1. CBT looses the information of I/Os during snapshot consolidation. The main backup isn’t affected but all data written during the consolidation task are missed.

ALL CBT incremental backups are potentially affected.

VMware currently has no resolution.

Update 25.11.2015:

VMware released a patch for the CBT bug.

VMware ESXi 6.0, Patch ESXi600-201511401-BG: Updates esx-base (2137546)
