Vmware Vsphere Esxi 5.5
Jun 4, 2018 - On September 19th, 2018, VMware vSphere ESXi 5.5 reaches End of General Support. But what exactly does that mean? Well, after the 19th,. Apr 17, 2018 - In vSphere 6.5, VMware had a list of the functionalities not yet. It needs to be noted that an ESXi 5.5 host cannot be managed by VCSA 6.7.
VMware vSphere High Availability (HA) feature is used to prevent unplanned downtime that could cause from hardware failure, power outage, etc. Call me big papa song. VMware vSphere HA protects against host failures, guest OS failures and application failures by restarting the virtual machine in another host within the cluster. So configuring HA is one of the important tasks in vSphere infrastructure. In this post, I will show steps to configure VMware vSphere HA in Configure VMware vSphere HA in vSphere 5.5 In vSphere HA, the hosts should be in cluster and managed by same vCenter server. Similarly, the shared storage should also be accessible by all hosts in the cluster.

The hosts should also have VMkernel network with Management Network check box enabled and static IP address configured. VMware vSphere HA protects from three types of failures: – • Host Failures: – To protect virtual machines from host failures, heart beats are exchanged between physical hosts in the vSphere cluster. If any hosts of the cluster fails then the virtual machines are restarted in another hosts in the cluster after 30 seconds by default. • Guest OS Failures: – To protect the guest OS failures, the heartbeats are exchanged between the virtual machine and vCenter server. The VMware tools installed in the guest OS does the heartbeat exchange with vCenter server. If vCenter server stops receiving the heartbeats then the VM is restarted on the same host.
