Sziasztok!


Rövid summája az érdekesebb dolgoknak:


vCenter

 

  • last release of the Windows version
  • Last version with the flash based Web Client  -  (hurááááááá)
  • HTML5 client - almost complete
  • vCenter Server with Embedded PSC with Enhanced Linked Mode
    • Embedded PSC vCenter can be linked!  - Only the Appliance version
    • no need for external PSC and load balancers
    • supports VCHA
  • vCenter Appliance  performance improvements
  • vCenter Server Hybrid Linked Mode
    • combine on-premise and cloud base VMware environments
    • Cross-Cloud Cold and Hot Migration
  • Per-VM EVC enables the EVC (Enhanced vMotion Compatibility) mode to become an attribute of the VM rather than the specific processor generation it happens to be booted on in the cluster. This allows for seamless migration across different CPUs by persisting the EVC mode per-VM during migrations across clusters and during power cycles.
  • vCenter backups can now be scheduled
  • VAMI has improved views on vCenter disks and services

 

 

 

 

Upgrade issues

  • For HP DL380G9: Set the server BIOS mode to UEFI before you install or upgrade ESXi.
  • Password issues
    • Special characters backslash (\) or double-quote (") used in passwords causes installation pre-check to fail
    • Windows vCenter Server 6.7 installer fails when non-ASCII characters are present in password
    • Cannot log in to vSphere Appliance Management Interface if the colon character (:) is part of vCenter Server root password
  • The time synchronization mode setting is not retained when upgrading vCenter Server Appliance
  • Login to vSphere Web Client with Windows session authentication fails on Firefox browsers of version 54 or later
  • TLS 1.0, 1.1 disabled by default
    • may lead to communication errors after an upgrade
    • Use TLS configurator in such cases 

 

 


ESXi

 

 

  • Quickboot
    • can only reboot the ESXi kernel and NOT the full server

 

  • vSphere Persistent Memory
    • on specific Dell/HPE servers with Persistent Memory present ESXi can use it as super fast storage or expose it to VMs
    • can be a datastore
    • part of it can be configured as a fast RAM disk to VMs
