Re: host 6.5 P2 7388607 can not join vcenter with EVC enabled vCenter cluster 6.5 U2 8294253
Hi tanwk,
Thanks for your reply.
Go through the link you provide, I visit the KB VMware Knowledge Base 52085.
and find the description:
In order to maintain this compatibility the new features are hidden from guests within the cluster until all hosts in the cluster are properly updated. At that time, the cluster will automatically upgrade its capabilities to expose the new features. Unpatched ESXi hosts will no longer be admitted into the EVC cluster.
Then we can regard it as an official description of limitation.
Re: Idea / Feature Suggestion: Useful to have vmdk disks, usually SCSI / SATA / IDE, make possible for mounting as USB disk as well
thanks tsxi and Ullli for this feature request! This sounds a user case that will be convenient to Workstation users.
Sorry for replying late for this thread. I already put it into the backlog.

"Cannot start" VM due to "OUT_OF_VRP_CONFIGURED_MEMORY_RESOURCES"
Hello there.
vCloud Director 9.1 Build 7905680 (Centos 7.2.1511)
vCenter Server (VCSA) 6.5.0 Build 7312210
ESXi 6.5.0 Build 7388607
There was a single VM (Windows) in the organization with 4GB RAM and 11Ghz resource allocation, CPU speed is 2.6Ghz, so 4 vCPUs can be provided for VMs of this organization. This VM was configured with 4 CPUs and 4 GB RAM, but then org admin tried to deploy and power on a new VM (Mikrotik Cloud Hosted Router). Well Mikrotik CHR was successfully deployed, however this VM could not be powered on for a good reason - insufficient resources. VM Windows was reconfigured later to use 2 vCPU and 2 GB RAM, and Mikrotik VM is configured now to use 1 vCPU and 1 GB RAM, so the picture now is as follows:
VM1 (Windows): 2 vCPU, 2 GB RAM
VM2 (Mikrotik): 1 vCPU, 1 GB RAM
Total pvDC allocation: 11 Ghz (vCPU Speed 2.6 Ghz), 4096 MB RAM, 1028 GB HDD (only 20% of storage allocation is used atm).
But attempt to start VM Mikrotik is still unsuccessful: "-ValidationException OUT_OF_VRP_CONFIGURED_MEMORY_RESOURCES". If I try to allocate 6 GB RAM to the organization, then VM can be powered on without any issues.
Also this VM can be powered on with no problems from vSphere side even with 4 GB RAM limit on the organization.
I've tried to reproduce this issue in my test organization without any luck: my test org has 16 GB RAM limit and my VMs was reconfigured few times, however they still can be powered on with no problems.
Update: resolved.
The thing was in the VM Windows bugged reconfiguration. vCloud Director and vSphere show that VM has 2 GB of Memory, but the vCloud Database shows that it has 4 GB of Memory (computevm table). The resolution:
1. Shut down the VM.
2. Reconfigure it to set 3 GB of RAM, reconfigure it once again to set 2 GB of RAM.
3. Take a look into Organization logs to ensure that previous operations was successful.
4. Take a look in the DB to ensure that VM now have 2 GB of RAM.
Now both VMs of this organization can be powered on without any issues.

Re: esxi 6.5 vmrc remote console GUI language
my OS is w7 x64 US English, my keyboard is US English and my default language is US English too.
I have of course added German as a second language and my regional settings for date, time and currency are German too.
Automatic language detectin is just crap.
Re: esxi 6.5 vmrc remote console GUI language
Thanks a lot, this did the trick.
At least the GUI is English now although an update which I installed today (AFTER I had changed the preferences.ini) still showed all the installation dialogues in German.

It's OK. Thanks!
Re: Very slow Client and more Drama
Hey there!
Sounds like a technical glitch. I think it would be a good idea to rebuild and refresh your system to see what the problem is. Why not try running the tool on your Virtual Desktop instead of the client endpoint?
Now, VMware Horizon Clients are a good option especially if you need smooth on-the-go access to your Virtual Desktop from any location. However, you may actually need something that resonates with your setup more effectively. Have you ever considered alternatives like deploying a standard Raspberry Pi Thin Client configuration at your place? Who knows, the vendor might also be able to give you more information on all possible options that complement your requirements.
Feel free to share your thoughts with me!
powercli script to create vm from template
Hello LucD,
could you post the script to create vm from template.
Re: powercli script to create vm from template
Have a look at Example 10 of the New-VM cmdlet online help page.
Or do you have any specific requirements?

Thank you. I will give that a try.
HOw to calculate Over-Provision Rate
HI,
Can Anyone help me how to calculate the OVER PROVISION RATE from the below values??
DataTotal(GB) | SnapTotal(GB) | VolUsed(GB) | DataUsed(GB) | SnapUsed(GB) | Provisioned Space | Acutal Used |
3400 | 0 | 2359 | 2359 | 0 | 6422 | 2354.33 |
3200 | 800 | 2821 | 2203 | 618 | 8654 | 2190.31 |

Re: ESXi 6.7 Keep Getting PANIC bora/vmkernel/main/dlmalloc.c: 4924 - Usage error in dlmalloc

Re: HOw to calculate Over-Provision Rate
If the above values are for two different datastores, over-provision rate can be calculated (in simple terms) as below -
Datastore-1 --> (Provisioned/DataTotal)*100 --> (6422/3400)*100 = 188 percent over-provisioned
Datastore-2 --> (8654/3200)*100 = 270 percent over-provisioned
Since the information is not clear, I'm assuming 'DataTotal' to be the size of the datastores.
