Re: vSAN all-flash lab failures
Hello Rich,
Did you upgrade this cluster to 6.7 or clean install?
I ask as if you look on reddit and elsewhere a load of home-labbers have encountered issues with whitebox NVMe components - initial issues being in later versions of 6.7 and having to use 6.7 GA inbox driver and/or hacky workarounds to get these working and then in 7.0 other issues due to how they upgraded the cluster as William Lam covers here:

Re: I'm try to upgrade my vCSA from 6.0 to 6.5, using the GUI , however it fails with the error "A problem occurred while getting data from the source vCenter Server."
Resolution: Reset root password for the PSC / VCSA VM that is being upgraded.
SSH into the source PSC / VCSA VM
Use the below commands to change the password:
Command> shell.set --enabled true
Command> shell
Shell access is granted to root
root@vc1 [ ~ ]# passwd
New password:

Re: Parsing Get-Notes from
Well that gave me an interesting csv. I'm guessing I put your suggestion in the wrong place.
Get-VM -PipelineVariable vm |
ForEach-Object -Process {
$obj = @{
VM = $vm.Name
}
if($vm.Notes){
$vm.Notes.Split("`n") | where{$_ -ne ''} |
ForEach-Object -Process {
$name,$value = $_.Split(':=')
if($obj.ContainsKey($name)){
Write-Host "VM $($vm.Name) seems to have multiple entries for $name"
}
else{
$obj.Add($name,$value)
}
}
}
else{
Write-Host "VM $($vm.Name) has no notes"
}
try{
New-Object -Typename psobject -Property $obj -ErrorAction Stop
}
catch{
Write-Host "Error creating the object for VM $($vm.Name)"
$obj.GetEnumerator()
}
} | Sort-Object -Property {($_ | Get-Member).Count} -Descending |
Export-Csv -Path .\report-noblank.csv -NoTypeInformation -UseCulture
CSV:
How about we ask for those lines in notes that have verbiage with a colon separator? From the looks of it, someone has filesystem information recorded in notes. Skip everything that isn't prefaced with XYZ: (XYZ could be anything as long as it's followed by a colon).

Re: vCloud Director 9.7 Appliance Disconnected
Hello
Are you using multiple cells and have some kind of load balancing / reverse proxy in front ?
Just for your information - we had the same issue a while ago.
We fixed this with using the same SSL cert for all our cells
Generally this is related to the fact that vCD now provides 2 services at the same IP, but with bit different characteristics
vCD portal service is the standard https, and the load balancing can be configured with SSL termination
vCD console proxy is bit more tricky - this is supposedly TCP raw socket connection.
Please google further the topic of vCloud Director load balancer console proxy, for example:
https://blah.cloud/cloud/vcloud-director-console-proxy-ui-single-ip/

Nessus Scans ESXi
I have a regulatory requirement to let Nessus scan my ESXi boxes. I have two challenges with this.
Challenge 1: Turning on the ESXi Shell and SSH on. How can I automate this so it happens to all boxes at the same time?
Challenge 2: Using a Windows account I can add to let it log on to the ESXi box. Windows accounts can logon to vSphere but not ESXi. I do not want to give a way the root account.
How do you let your environment get scanned.

Re: vSAN all-flash lab failures
Hi Bob, yes I have read those. This was a fresh install initially of 6.7 U3, and when I faced these exact same issues, i did another fresh build of ESXi 7.0 and vCenter 7
I actually wouldn't mind trying an NVME from the HCL, I just can't be certain it's not an issue with a storage component on the NUC board itself, or somethng in intel's BIOS. Not really sure where to go with it next.

Re: INSTALL WINDOWS XP MEDIA CENTER EDITION WITH 2 CD ISO
There can be several reasons for this:
- no driver installed for the VM's virtual network adapter
- incorrect network type selected in the VM's settings (e.g. Host-Only)
Does the network adapter show up in the guest OS, and does it have a valid IP address?

Re: Parsing Get-Notes from
No, that is the right place.
To test only for lines that have a ':' in there, except in the 1st position we can use
$vm.Notes.Split("`n")|where{$_-match'^(?!:).*:.*'}|

Re: I'm try to upgrade my vCSA from 6.0 to 6.5, using the GUI , however it fails with the error "A problem occurred while getting data from the source vCenter Server."
You've likely not noticed it, but you were responding to a more than two years old question.
In addition, the source (see screenshots) is a vCenter Server running on Windows.

Re: Workstation 15.5.6 now available
On my system 15.5.6 has indeed fixed the issues. In my case these were the Caps Lock and Num Lock issues as well as the sound issues.
While undoing the workarounds in the .vmx config files a question arose: As part of the workaround we were told to switch from the default audio device (emulated ES1371 sound device) to the hd audio device using the switch 'sound.virtualDev = "hdaudio"'. Now that the issues with the emulated ES1371 sound device have been fixed should we return to said virtual device or do you recommend sticking with the virtual hd audio device?
