When trying to update a host with VUM i got the following error "The host returns esxupdate error code:15. The package manager transaction is not successful" After some searching i found article 2030665 on Vmware site. https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2030665 the article says that you need to recreate the version folder under /locker/packages. in my case the folder wasnt there. But after recreating the folder version and subfolders i resumed the remediation but it just wouldn't update. So i found another article that solved it. Here are the steps i took: Start winscp and connect to the affected ESXi host Start another Winscp [...]

Windows 2016 slow on ESXi 6.5

After some Windows 2016 server deployments on ESXi 6.5 customers started to notice slow server responses. I came across the following VMware article. https://recommender.vmware.com/solution/SOL-13898?src=vmw_so_vex_mrous_1194 So after checking the build numbers on the ESXi server it turned out i was on build 5146846. I suggest you upgrade to  ESXi 6.5 Update 1, build number should be 5969303 or higher If you are unable to upgrade ESXi then use the registery settings in this VMware article. hope this helps anyone.

NSX Edge - Find DHCP lease When you switch to NSX edge and you setup DHCP for you network, you find yourself wondering or looking for some IP address of a new device you hooked up.

For example. i hooked up a new Cisco [...]

Failed to connect virtual device ‘ethernet0’

Door |2017-08-15T19:25:43+01:00augustus 15th, 2017|VMware|

Failed to connect virtual device 'ethernet0' It seems this error is still turning up in vSphere 6.5.  I'm running vSphere 6.5.0.5400. I couldn't get the VM connected, so after some searching i came across this blog on the VMware community here. Seems it has something to do with VMRC 9.0. now if you read the post you come to the comment of Czernobog. at the end he had to use the fat client.  Since you cant connect with the fat client to a vSphere 6.5 i had to use the web client HTML5 not the flash. Edit the vm en now i [...]
