How to rebuild vCMP guest VM - Viprion deployment
Hi, I wonder if anyone had issue vCMP guest VM failure on one slot. I have three slot Viprion with guests set to all slots. After upgrade guest started but the guest VM on slot 2 failed. So now guest is running only on two slots. Slot 2 VM seems to be completely dead: No way to SSH using this slot member IP ssh slot 2 from slot 1 not working vconsole [guest name] 2 from host not working I was not able to test tmsh reboot slot 2 from guest slot 1 (Primary) but I highly doubt it will work. Sure I will try reboot guest chassis (like tmsh reboot slot all ) but what if slot 2 VM will not boot again? Any proven procedure? My idea is to: Change guest state to configured Disable guest on slot 2 Change state to provisioned - according to info collected: VM will be deleted vdisk will be preserved I think vdisk on slot 2 should be removed - hope can be done via host GUI vCMP ›› Virtual Disk List After clean up: Change state to configured Enable guest on all slots (original setting) Change state to provisioned, I assume that: VM will be created vdisk will be copied from primary slot Change state to deployed Should it work? Any better/safer way? Piotr

vCMP host and guest modify management IP
Hi, I need help to modify the management IP of vCMP host and guest and migrate them to new subnet. Existing Setup Two vCMP host on different chassis both having management IP from the same subnet vCMP host 1 management IP: 192.168.1.1/24 vCMP host2 management IP 192.168.1.2/24 There are multiple guest on each of these vcMP host which are in HA setup. They are bridged and have management IP configured within the same subnet as vCMP host. vCMP guest1 management: 192.168.1.3/24 vcMP guest 2 management : 192.168.1.4/24 New Setup I want to move them to new subnet but again both host and guest will be sharing the IP from the same subnet . If the new subnet is 172.19.1.0/24 then : vCMP host 1: 172.19.1.1/24 vCMP host 2 172.19.1.2/24, vCMP guest 1 : 172.19.1.3/24 vCMP guest2: 172.19.1.4/24 My question is can we change the host IP first or guest? Will changing the host IP affect the guest? What is best practice and sequence of steps to follow?
