Last bulid of ESXi but vulnerability still exist on IVA scan.

$
0
0

Hello,

 

My auditor requests me to fix vulnerabilities CVE-2019-5518 and CVE-2019-5519 discovered on ESXi after execution recently the IVA (internal vulnerability assessments) sacn.

I already have the last build 15256549 for ESXi 6.5.0 and the last build 15160138 for ESXi 6.7.0 that normally fixes all of those CVE since April 2019 from older build at that moment.

My update manger indicate also that I have the last compliant patches.

Please, how can I insure that all of those vulnerabilities are fixed ? and if no, does this mean that I should do some setting on VMs under ESXi?  

 

Kind Regards,

I am not sure where this is coming from but my vmkernel.log is flooded with this info, currently at 650MB and keep writing every few seconds.

 

Not sure hot to read this?

HP Proliant DL vmhba32 dead path condition

$
0
0

We've been having lots of issues with our HP Proliant's (Various Generations) loosing the path to the 8 GB internal SD cards where ESXi is loaded. Typically a reboot will correct this condition and sometime it requires re-seating the internal SD cards.

 

Once the host is rebooted it will typically pick up the SD card where ESXi is loaded and boot without issues. If not, we usually have our NOC reseat the SD cards.

 

When this happens the bootbank vmfs volume where ESXi resides becomes unavailable and shows up in red when running ls -la /bootbank

lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            49 Apr 10  2019 bootbank -> /vmfs/volumes/a7caa3ee-95aa4a08-2db1-7b6495be01fc

 

vmhba32-dead-path.png

 

Here's our current ESXi info:

[root@vmesx004:/dev/disks] vmware -vl

VMware ESXi 6.5.0 build-8294253

VMware ESXi 6.5.0 Update 2

 

I've reviewed this KB2144283 and have updated the iLO from 2.3 to 2.61 but the same condition exist

VMware Knowledge Base

 

The only thing that changes is the iLO now shows this condition for the internal SD card.

At login screen: iLO Self-Test reports a problem with: Embedded Flash/SD-CARD. View details on Diagnostics page.

Controller firmware revision 2.09.00 Embedded media manager failed initialization

 

The above error points to this article: https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c04996097

 

As I mentioned I already updated the iLO to 2.61 and we usually never have to perform a NAND format. The reboot usually gets SD back online.

 

I've tried stopping and restarting USB arbitration service and then rescanning adapters but this didn't help.

 

Here's some output from the last few lines of vmkernel.log

Here's some additional output if that helps.

I was debating on trying these commands next but wasn't sure if this would help and I don't want to risk impacting the production environment with running VM's.

 

esxcli system module set --enabled=false  --module=usb

esxcli system module set --enabled=true  --module=usb

 

Any ideas on if it's possible to get this vmhba32 dead path condition fixed without rebooting host or re-seating the SD cards?

 

For some reason this is plaguing a lot of our host and causing issues since we need to get maintenance windows to migrate VM's off to reboot the host.

Seems like we should be able to correct this without rebooting the host...???

 

Appreciate any insight or suggestions!

If we can find a fix or work-around this would save us a lot of grief!

BUG: Cannot export a VM with pcie passthru - Results in empty .OVF file.

$
0
0

Hey all,

 

I am trying to export a VM and everything goes well EXCEPT the .OVF file it has you download is empty.   When I say empty, I mean it is 1KB and contains nothing.  The file is completely empty.

 

I've done some testing and concluded that you cannot export a VM if the VM has a pcie-passthru.  This causes the .OVF file to be blank every single time.

 

Steps to replicate:

 

  1. Create a VM
  2. Attach a PCIE-Passthru
  3. Export VM
  4. Open up the .OVF file
  5. .OVF file is empty - bug confirmed.

 

 

Is there a way we can get this fixed?  Or any fix you know about?

 

Thanks

Cannot connect to other Hosts from ESXi with ssh/scp

$

Hi there,

 

I have two ESXi hosts (free Version 6.5) up and running for quite some time now. Everything is running smooth.

 

If SSHd is enabled on the ESXi hosts, I also can connet to then with ssh, there is no issue.

 

But if I'm already on the ESXi host in a shell, I cannot connect to any other host with ssh or scp.

 

ssh: connect to host XX.XX.XX.XX port 22: Connection timed out

 

This behaviour is the same for both of my ESXi hosts. SSHD on the remote hosts (where I want to connect to) is working fine, and I can connect to them from any other machine beside my two ESXi hosts.

 

Any clue from where this behaviour comes and how to fix it?

 

Regards,

Claude

ESXi doesn't send syslog messages to tcp syslog server

$

Hello

 

I have several esxi servers in cluster. ESXi's version is 6.0u2.

I'm trying to configure sending syslog messages and faced the situation when it works in case of using udp syslog server and port 514.

I'm havingrsyslog server.

 

tcp doesn't work.

 

On the syslog server I can see via tcpdump that client and server can't establish a connection but there is no reason.

At the same time other linux server can send syslog messages to tcp syslog server successfully.

I guess the problem is in the blocked port 514 for incoming connections at the esxi's side, but I'm not sure.

I didn't like the method of adding additional rules to esxi firewall, it is rather complicated.

 

does anybody faced the same problem?

Nakivo Backup on separate (direct) lan connection

$

Hello everyone,

I would like ask you for an advise.

This is only about my home lab, so just simple one esxi host without vcenter.

I am also using Nakivo as backup solution for my lab thats running on QNAP.

So far they were both on same subnet running without issues.

This week I added a 10GB connection to both devices and have just direct cable connection between them.

From esxi and VMs on top of it I can reach the QNAP without problem (NFS, SMB, SSH).

Also from QNAP itself I can SSH to the ESXi host.

All this using the 10GB connection.

But when I add this host with a new IP to Nakivo It all behaves very weird.

I know Nakivo is using ports 902 and 443, but nothing is being blocked on esxi side.

The only message I receive in hostd logs on esxi is

I am sure there is no blocking, network is setup correctly.

The thing I am not sure about is how in general esxi works with 2 management interfaces.

 

I would be very glad if you have any suggestions.

Hello,

I am relatively new to VMWARE.

I have "inherited" a network with 30 VMs, all of them running Windows Server 2016.

One of them is a file server with a 1.4TB pre-allocated disk. I want to extend the disk by 1TB (2.4TB in total) but the "increase capacity" is turned off.

How can I solve this?

How to create a datastore on the disk on which ESXI (6.5) is installed

$

Hello,

 

 

 

 

I ordered a server yesterday from OVH with the NVME 480GB * 2 SSD option instead of conventional hard drives.

 

 

My problem is that I can only create one datastore.

 

 

Unable to create a datastore on the disk where ESXI is installed.

 

 

Or I can do this by deleting the automatically created VMFS partition, except that the host becomes unstable then.

 

 

How then is it possible to use the available space of the two disks?

 

 

 

 

Thank you in advance for your help.

esxcli list all vms

Hello everyone!

Is there a way to list all VMs (including powered off) directly from the host via ssh? Like "vim-cmd vmsvc/getallvms" or "esxcli vm process list" but for every vm on the host? I know about PowerCLI and its get-vm commandlet but It would be better for me to fetch vms right from the host. Thank you in advance!

iSCSI target shows service connection to ESXi host IP, not VMKernel NIC

$
0
0

Hello,

 

I finally have gotten our new ESXi 6.7 to find the iSCSI target in our network.  It looks like I can create a datastore now, but I'm concerned that the iSCSI target shows the ESXI host's IP address (x.x.x.6) in its connection properties, not the VMKernel NIC IP (x.x.x.47), as I expected.  The iSCSI target is on a Synology NAS box.

 

There are 4 physical NICs:
vmnic0
vmnic1
vmnic2
vmnic3

 

There are 2 virtual switches:
vSwitch0 - (Management Network & VM Network) vmnic0, vmnic1

vSwitch1 - (iscsi) vmnic2, vmnic3

 

There are 2 VMKernel NICs:

vmk0 - Management Network portgroup, x.x.x.6

vmk1 - iscsi portgroup, x.x.x.47

 

The iSCSI Software Adapter, vmhba64, successfully found the target (x.x.x.80).  It reports "No port bindings."  Is that a problem?


Does anyone know why the iSCSI target is showing the host IP, x.x.x.6 and not the vmk1 IP, x.x.x.47?  Let me know if you need more information.

 

Thanks,

Vmware 6.7 setup with Nic Teaming

Hi!

 

I have Dell server with 10G interface configured with Nic Teaming with Two HP Flexfabric acting as one via IRF. I am configured Bridge aggregation on HP side.

 

 

interface Bridge-Aggregation 20

port link-type trunk

port trunk permit vlan 1 110 321 202

 

I am specifying VLAN option on VMWARE side to 110. If I remove the VLAN option on Vmware and then change my config to below then I cannot connect to it. I want to have vlan 110 as untagged which I beleive is better way to connect to management VLAN.

 

interface Bridge-Aggregation 20

port link-type trunk

port trunk permit vlan 1 321 202

port trunk pvid vlan 110

 

Nic Teaming:

Notify switches

Yes

Policy

Route based on IP hash

Reverse policy

Yes

Failback

Yes

 

Just want to confirm if this setup is ok or untagging the management vlan is better option and how can I achieve that?

 

Thanks

ESXi 6.7 Windows 2016/2019 freeze

Dear VMWare Community,

 

I have serious trouble with Windows 2016/2019 VM guests on ESXi 6.7. Every 3,4,5 days several VMs are unresponsible and hang. The only way to bring the VM back to life is the reset. The log is clean. I seems that the VM hangs without any error and the VMWare tools are unavailable.

Am I the only one having this problem? :-)

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Bug report ESXI 6.7 build 15160138 - missing ISO file crashes any VM export command

$

Hey guys,

 

I just spent 4 hours trying to solve this problem and turns out it's a bug so I thought i'd share it here

 

Steps to reproduce:

 

1 - create a VM and setup its dvd player to use an ISO file in a datastore as boot device for installing

2 - after install is done the dvd player is automatically disconnected from the connected devices to avoid booting on it again.

3 - delete the ISO file in the datastore or through SSH.

4 - try to export the VM through any mean: web client, ovftools, anything... All fails, especially the web client which just shows a progress bar with no errors.

 

When you check the logs, you find this in hostd.log:

 

2020-01-25T22:46:28.314Z info hostd[2098582] [Originator@6876 sub=Solo.Vmomi opID=esxui-2b6c-039b user=root] Activation [N5Vmomi10ActivationE:0x00000063e4b18730] : Invoke done [exportVm] on [vim.VirtualMachine:6]

2020-01-25T22:46:28.314Z info hostd[2098582] [Originator@6876 sub=Solo.Vmomi opID=esxui-2b6c-039b user=root] Throw vim.fault.FileNotFound

2020-01-25T22:46:28.314Z info hostd[2098582] [Originator@6876 sub=Solo.Vmomi opID=esxui-2b6c-039b user=root] Result:

--> (vim.fault.FileNotFound) {

-->    faultCause = (vmodl.MethodFault) null,

-->    faultMessage = <unset>,

-->    file = "/vmfs/volumes/5e2335a6-78aef506-d442-28f10e01eeaf/ISO/debian-10.2.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso"

 

So even when the dvd player of a VM is disconnected if it was previously set to an ISO file which has been later removed from a datastore it prevents any regular VM export command through any mean and without clear error message.

 

This shouldn't provoke a blocking to export a VM, and if it does the corresponding action should display "failed because of missing ISO file..." and not just show an infinite progress bar with no errors.

 

Thanks for your time

Want to set up multiple VLANS between Switch and ESXi 6.7U3

Struggling to get VLANs to work.

 

I have a couple of different LAB environments I want to set up on a singlw ESXi server.

 

I have set up the following:

Assigned uplinks 1,2,3 for use for LABS

Here are the physical NICs:

I then setup a Port Group as follows:

On the Ubiquiti Controller I have set the following Network up for VLAN 4:

Screenshot 2020-01-26 at 01.19.54.png

 

When I assign port group LAB - ALPINE to the VM there is no network connection at all and no suggestion VLAN ID is being used. I can set a static IP of 10.0.0.1/24 but the VM is not physically bound to this network.

 

Screenshot 2020-01-26 at 01.21.20.png

vmnic1, vmnic2, vmnic3 are plugged in to a 24 Port switch with the 3 ports aggregated but not assigned to any particular network.

 

Any help on what to do here. I've used pfsense in the past to achieve something similar however would rather not use pfsense this time unless I need to.
