Troubleshooting 78
4.
Share the volume with all servers.
5.
Launch vSphere and connect to the vCenter server.
6.
Pick the CS9 management host and click Rescan All, then Add Storage (CS9MgmtDatastore).
7.
On the remaining hosts in compute clusters, either click Rescan All, or wait for the datastore to be
visible.
If the factory datastores [remote-install-location] still exist, remove them from each ESXi host. If the
factory datastores exist when CloudSystem tries to activate compute nodes, the activation fails.
Distributed switches were not created as expected
Symptom
Distributed switches were not created.
Explanation
On the CS9 management hosts, the CS9_Mgmt_DVS distributed switch is created with two uplink ports
and attached to vmnic6 and vmnic7. Two portgroups, dvESXmgmt and dvmgmtVMNetwork, are created
on the switch with the DCM VLAN. The ESXmgmt portgroup on the standard switch vSwitch1 is migrated
to the dvESXmgmt portgroup.
On the compute hosts, the CS9_Compute_DVS switch is created with the dvESXcomp portgroup with two
uplinks and attached to vmnic6 or vmnic7. The ESXmgmt portgroup on standard vSwitch1 is migrated to
this dvESXcomp portgroup. The Comp-CloudData-Trunk distributed switch is created with two uplinks on
vmnic8 or vmnic9. No portgroups are created on the Comp-CloudData-Trunk at this time.
Action
Migrate ESXmgmt on vSwitch0 to CS9_Mgmt_DVS using the following steps.
1.
Create CS9_Mgmt_DVS w/ dvESXMgmt portgroup (VLAN <DCM>).
2.
Navigate to Inventory -> Networking, right-click on CS9_Mgmt_DVS, and select Manage Hosts.
3.
Pick all hosts in the management cluster (for a two-node solution, there is a single management
node).
4.
Select vmnic6 or vmnic7 for these hosts.
5.
Assign DV destinations for the ESXmgmt standard portgroup to the corresponding dvESXmgmt
distributed port group on each respective host. Do not change the other port groups.
Distributed Compute Switches
Migrate ESXmgmt on vSwitch0 to CS9_Compute_DVS using the following steps.
1.
Create CS9_Compute_DVS with dvESXcomp portgroup (VLAN <DCM>).
2.
Right-click CS9_Comp_DVS, manage hosts.
3.
Pick all hosts in compute cluster and verify vmnic6 or vmnic7 selected for these hosts.
4.
Assign dv destinations for the ESXmgmt standard portgroup to the corresponding dvESXComp
distributed portgroup on each host.
5.
Create Comp-CloudData-Trunk on vmnic8 or vmnic9 for all compute hosts (no portgroups).
Foundation or Enterprise zip files on the datastore supplied by
the factory image are not found
Symptom
When you attempt to upload OVA images, the Foundation or Enterprise zip files on the datastore supplied
by the factory image are not found.
