The disk was in thock mode and the vm was the only stored on a LUN of 350GB! You say " OK The LUN has much space for that VM!".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I say: NO! the Lun fills up all the space and the vm goes down! When I received the alarm on the LUN there was only &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;2Mb of free space!&lt;/span&gt;! &lt;br /&gt;The problem was on the second hard disk. It was divided on more subdisk like a snapshot, but there was no snapshot. The other mistake was the provisioned space: the disk was thick so the space provisioned was the same, but see the image below&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Sx3Y67zB3tg/TC2HqKK6f8I/AAAAAAAAADw/Z4xXPdm5tfw/s1600/disk1.PNG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 315px; height: 150px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Sx3Y67zB3tg/TC2HqKK6f8I/AAAAAAAAADw/Z4xXPdm5tfw/s320/disk1.PNG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489192679188889538" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Sx3Y67zB3tg/TC2Hp_eb6XI/AAAAAAAAADo/dyNEYSxUIcQ/s1600/disk+usage.PNG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 46px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Sx3Y67zB3tg/TC2Hp_eb6XI/AAAAAAAAADo/dyNEYSxUIcQ/s320/disk+usage.PNG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489192676317981042" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I search over the kb in vmware and I find 2 article for the solution.&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;a href="http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&amp;docType=kc&amp;externalId=1002310"&gt;first&lt;/a&gt; is abount the snapshot and the &lt;a href="http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&amp;cmd=displayKC&amp;externalId=1007849"&gt;second&lt;/a&gt; is about the child disk.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The second article help me to the solution.

On the ESX there was 2 CNA adapter:&lt;br /&gt;- &lt;a href=http://www.qlogic.com/Products/ConvergedNetworking/ConvergedNetworkAdapters/Pages/QLE8042.aspx&gt;QLogic 8042&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- &lt;a href=http://www.emulex.com/products/converged-network-adapters/emulex-branded/lightpulse-lp21002/overview.html&gt;Emulex LP21002&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All the 2 interface for the network emulates an 82598EB 10Gigabit AF Dual port. The CNA are connected to Cisco Nexus 5020 switch. For the migration we create a new vSwitch whit all the portgroup and the emulex network for the physical adapter. The issue is the vm not connected to the network after a vmotion. With VMware and many stress test we found that the vm after a vmotion did't make an arp request for register the MAC to the new esx host, so the vm is connected to the virtual switch and another vm on the same esx and portgroup can ping it, but all the physical world can't ping it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After many task we make a dirty solution: remove the QLOGIC CNA and make all the connection with the EMULEX card. This is the solution for our case! take attention for your environment! make many test and speack with vmware and log, log, log!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;bye&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;aLex&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7169263898330543054-815529277705199127?l=alexbindo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/feeds/815529277705199127/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/2010/06/strange-network-issue-on-fcoe.html#comment-form' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7169263898330543054/posts/default/815529277705199127'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7169263898330543054/posts/default/815529277705199127'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/2010/06/strange-network-issue-on-fcoe.html' title='Strange network issue on FCoE environment'/><author><name>aLex</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10670589984265709385</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7169263898330543054.post-2565287446318367710</id><published>2010-06-11T08:28:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2010-06-11T08:30:51.911+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vmware'/><title type='text'>ESX 4 Update 2</title><content type='html'>Hi all,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;jost a little remind: VmWare released an upgrade of the vSphere infrastructure. &lt;a href="http://www.vmware.com/support/vsphere4/doc/vsp_esx40_u2_rel_notes.html"&gt;Here&lt;/a&gt; the Release Notes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;aLex&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7169263898330543054-2565287446318367710?l=alexbindo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/feeds/2565287446318367710/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/2010/06/esx-4-update-2.html#comment-form' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7169263898330543054/posts/default/2565287446318367710'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7169263898330543054/posts/default/2565287446318367710'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/2010/06/esx-4-update-2.html' title='ESX 4 Update 2'/><author><name>aLex</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10670589984265709385</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7169263898330543054.post-3587855988759020122</id><published>2010-05-28T08:16:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2010-05-28T08:26:04.204+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vmware'/><title type='text'>End of VMware Server on 2011</title><content type='html'>Yes!

For the alignment you need to make some othe command when you are in the fdisk tool. after you create the partition whit the n command you need to change the type of the partition (fd for vmware filesystem) and than use the X command and set the start of the partition; 128 is the value for the most cases, but check the SAN manual for the best configuration. Then you can create the vmfs filesystem on that partition with this command Example: vmkfstools -C vmfs3 /vmfs/devices/disks/vmhba0:0:0:10&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- &lt;a href=http://www.yellow-bricks.com/2008/12/15/create-vmfs-volumes-from-the-commandline/&gt;Create VMFS volumes from the command-line&lt;/a&gt; from Duncan Edding.

First of all the client for the VDI on Xenserver is for all the OS client(Windows, Linux and Mac) instead View client that is only for Windows.&lt;br /&gt;The server is more clean adn linear. I prefer the console of xendestop instead the Web interface of view. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I use for ESX server for the Hypervisor for the VDI VM. For connecting XenDesktop DDC to the vCenter and ESX I disable the SSL authentication for the /sdk access on the Tomcat server. I use this &lt;a href=http://jariangibson.com/2009/10/13/using-xendesktop-with-vmware&gt;guide&lt;/a&gt;. I try the client on WinXP and on Ubuntu 9.10 and is all fine!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For View i use Win2003 for the Brocker and the client is a WinXp machine. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Italian&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ho provato le soluzioni VDI di Citrix e Vmware. Mi è piaciuta maggiormante la versione di citrix in quantop il client è multipiattaforma (windows,linux e Mac) e il server con la sua console mi è sembrato più lineare e "pulito".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Per il lab ho usato ESX come server di virtualizzazione.

In the morning VmWare present vSphere and some package for vCenter and the new &lt;a href=http://www.vmware.com/products/view/&gt;View&lt;/a&gt;. For the presentation they used a Laptop with an client hypervisor for the raod warrior (offline user). This laptop is a technical preview for the vmware technical guy. The ESX for laptop is capable to use wifi adapter and a new driver for VGA adapter whit 3D. They shown a Win 7 VM with Aero. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After the break I saw an IBM presentation. The speaker was &lt;a href=http://it20.info/aboutme/aboutme.aspx&gt;Massimo Rè Ferre&lt;/a&gt; a virtualization guru. The presentation was a very good overview for the cloud technology key point and concept and a presentatione for the IBM Blade server S(an all in one solution for virtualization purpose). Thanks Massimo for your opinion and idea. I I hope that Massimo will publish the presentation on his blog!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Italian.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L'atro ieri sono andato a Milano per il Vmware Virtualization Day. Nella mattinata è stato presentato oltre a vSphere e vari parti e aggiunte per vCenter è stato presentato View. Il prodotto per il VDI di Vmware. Oltre al client Windows PCoIP i tecnici hanno fatto vedere un portatile che è una technical preview con sopra un ESX per portatili...

Dal cliente c'è un applicazione montata che sfrutta il .net 2.0, ma sulla macchina in particolare erano attivi gli aggiornamenti automatici. Il passaggio alla versione 3.5 del .net creava il blocco dell'applicativo. Soluzione facile: reinstallare il .net 2.0, ma qui sta l'inghippo:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L'installare si bloccava con un errore di una funzione per Handle non valida e non permetteva di continuare. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Allora vado a disinstalalre il .net 3.5 e poi reinstallo il 2. Nell'installazione applicazioni era presente soltanto il .net 1.1 e nessuna versione successiva, anche se andando nella cartella windows\microsoft.net era presente anche la cartella della versione 2.0.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;per risolvere il problema googlando ho trovato questa bellissima &lt;a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/pages/8904493.aspx"&gt;utility&lt;/a&gt; che forza il cleanup della versione di .net desiderata. Grazie aaron Stebnet per l'utility!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;infatti appena ripulito il sistema dalle versioni incriminate ho rilanciato il setup e questa volta è andato a posto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;aLex&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7169263898330543054-4106454966222561974?l=alexbindo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/feeds/4106454966222561974/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/2009/08/problema-net-20.html#comment-form' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7169263898330543054/posts/default/4106454966222561974'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7169263898330543054/posts/default/4106454966222561974'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/2009/08/problema-net-20.html' title='Problema .NET 2.0'/><author><name>aLex</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10670589984265709385</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7169263898330543054.post-8442108042596455983</id><published>2009-08-17T16:25:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2009-08-17T16:38:14.506+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vmware'/><title type='text'>Allargare i volumi tramite extpart</title><content type='html'>A questo &lt;a href="http://vuemuer.pmiservice.biz/?p=334"&gt;link&lt;/a&gt;

Per mantenere i dati si deve utilizzare il programma vSphere Host update utility 4.0 per il singolo host oppure il patch manager se si utilizza vCenter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Il programma richiede che l'host sia in modalita Maintenance Mode, quindi si deve poi procedere allo spegnimento di tutte le macchine virtuali. Fatto questo si aggangia il server ESX dal programma di aggiornamento e tramite un wizard gli si dà in pasto la ISO di vSphere. Il programma si occupa di aggiornare il server riavviandolo e mantenendo i datastore anche locali.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La cosa bella è che permette sempre di partire anche con la versione vecchia di ESX.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;aLex&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7169263898330543054-6026086252056455332?l=alexbindo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/feeds/6026086252056455332/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/2009/07/aggiornamento-host-esx-35-vsphere.html#comment-form' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7169263898330543054/posts/default/6026086252056455332'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7169263898330543054/posts/default/6026086252056455332'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/2009/07/aggiornamento-host-esx-35-vsphere.html' title='Aggiornamento host ESX 3.5 a vSphere'/><author><name>aLex</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10670589984265709385</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7169263898330543054.post-5001020263041309081</id><published>2009-07-14T14:14:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2009-07-14T14:16:28.149+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Resettare password switch CISCO</title><content type='html'>in questo &lt;a href="http://www.networknet.nl/apps/wp/archives/833"&gt;link&lt;/a&gt; viene spiegato come reimpostare le password sugli switch Cisco.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;aLex&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7169263898330543054-5001020263041309081?l=alexbindo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/feeds/5001020263041309081/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/2009/07/resettare-password-switch-cisco.html#comment-form' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7169263898330543054/posts/default/5001020263041309081'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7169263898330543054/posts/default/5001020263041309081'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/2009/07/resettare-password-switch-cisco.html' title='Resettare password switch CISCO'/><author><name>aLex</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10670589984265709385</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7169263898330543054.post-1223569013329385301</id><published>2009-07-07T08:31:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2009-07-07T08:34:14.841+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Verifica SVVP Microsoft</title><content type='html'>A questo &lt;a href='http://www.windowsservercatalog.com/svvp.aspx?svvppage=svvpwizard.htm'&gt;link&lt;/a&gt; è possibile verificare se un programma è supportato da Microsoft all'interno di una piattaforma di virtualizzazione.

Dopo la prima fase di isntallazione simile in tutto e per tutto a Windows Server 2008 al primo riavvio è partito il wizard di configrazione di SBS2008. Il wizard dopo il primo benvenuto si è immediatamente bloccato perchè non trovava la scheda di rete. I driver della scheda di rete sono all'interno dei Vmware Tools che si installano al primo riavvio della macchina virtuale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Sx3Y67zB3tg/Sci9tIch5uI/AAAAAAAAAAU/9CEtRMw1W6A/s1600-h/Immagine.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 200px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Sx3Y67zB3tg/Sci9tIch5uI/AAAAAAAAAAU/9CEtRMw1W6A/s320/Immagine.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316707943169779426" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Come si vede nell'immagine, fortunatamente, il setup propone di lanciare il setup dei driver de on si dispone dei driver stessi.

Il server era stato configurato, ma non era stati impostati i salvataggi sel System State. Il problema era che il serevr dopo un primo avvio normale appena cercava di far partire il server direcoty si bloccava e si riavviava. l'unico modo per riuscire ad accedere al sistema era in modalità di rirpistino di AD.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ho provato a seguire i passi descritti nella &lt;a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/258062/en-us"&gt;kb258064&lt;/a&gt; per controllare i permessi NTFS sulla directory "C:\WINDOWS\NTDS", e controllare l'integrità del db ntds.dit tramite l'utility ntdsutil, ma il file era danneggiato. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Senza il backup del system state, l'unico modo per riportare ilserver a funzionamento è stato quello di forzare il demote del server senza la possibilità di comunicare con il servizio stesso, la ricreazione di un dominio di passaggio poi la relavita disinstallazione corretta e poi finalmente la ricostruzione del dominio così come deve essere. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;per effettuare tutta l'operazione ho seguito la &lt;a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/332199/en-us"&gt;kb332199&lt;/a&gt; e le seguenti operazioni&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To remove Active Directory from a domain controller, follow these steps:&lt;br /&gt;1. Restart the computer, and then press F8 to display the Windows 2000 Advanced Options menu.&lt;br /&gt;2. Choose Directory Services Restore Mode, press ENTER, and then press ENTER again to continue restarting.&lt;br /&gt;3. Modify the ProductType entry in the registry. To do this, follow these steps:&lt;br /&gt;a.  Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.&lt;br /&gt;b.  Locate the following registry subkey:&lt;br /&gt;HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ProductOptions&lt;br /&gt;c.  In the right-pane, double-click ProductType.&lt;br /&gt;d.  Type ServerNT in the Value data box, and then click OK.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Note If this value is not set correctly or is misspelled, you may receive the following error message:&lt;br /&gt;System Process - License Violation: The system has detected tampering with your registered product type. This is a violation of your software license. Tampering with product type is not permitted.&lt;br /&gt;e.  Quit Registry Editor.&lt;br /&gt;4. Restart the computer.&lt;br /&gt;5. Log on with the administrator account and password that is used for Directory Service Repair mode.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The computer will behave as a member server. However, there are still some remaining files and registry entries on the computer that are associated with the domain controller.&lt;br /&gt;6. Start Registry Editor and locate the following registry entry:&lt;br /&gt;HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters&lt;br /&gt;If there is an entry for Src Root Domain Srv, right-click the value and then click Delete. This value must be deleted so that the domain controller sees itself as the only domain controller in the domain after promotion.&lt;br /&gt;7. Remove the remaining files and registry entries. To do this, follow these steps:&lt;br /&gt;a.  Start the Active Directory Installation Wizard.&lt;br /&gt;b.  Install Active Directory to make the computer a domain controller for a new, temporary domain, such as "psstemp.deleteme."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Note Make sure that you make the computer a domain controller in a different forest.&lt;br /&gt;c.  After you install Active Directory, start the Active Directory Installation Wizard again, and then remove Active Directory from the domain controller.&lt;br /&gt;8.

Ho installato la versione adatta a girare in ambiente virtuale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dopo aver creato la macchina virtuale con caratteristiche minime (512MbRAM, 8Gb HDU e 1 processore) sono partito con l'installazione. A differenza della versione 8.04 che aveva una ISO specifica la versione 8.10 di ubuntu Jeos si installa direttamente dalla ISO della versione server andanto a specificare con F4 prima di partire con l'instalazione la versione minimale per sistemi di virtualizzazione.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dopo 5 minuti la macchina virtuale è pronta.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;per l'installazione dei vmware-tools si deve aggiungere i seguenti pacchetti per permettere la compilazione:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;sudo apt-get install build-essential psmisc linux-headers-$(uname -r)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;una volta scaricati i pacchetti si può procedere con l'installazione e la compilazione dei vmware tools senza problemi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Una cosa che ho notato è che in fase di installazione non richiede la modalità di configurazione dell'indirizzo IP della scheda di rete, ma in automatico va in modalità DHCP. Per modificare tale comportamento basterà modificare il file &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;/etc/network/interface&lt;/span&gt; andando a modificare &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;auto eth0&lt;br /&gt;iface eth0 inet dhcp&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;in questo modo per poter assegnare un ip fisso&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;iface eth0 inet static&lt;br /&gt; address 192.168.1.2&lt;br /&gt; netmask 255.255.255.0&lt;br /&gt; gateway 192.168.1.1&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oltre a questo si deve anche andare a modificare il file &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;/etc/resolv.conf&lt;/span&gt; per andare ad impostare i server DNS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ora si può far ripartire il servizio di netwroking per utilizzare la nuova configurazione&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/network-configuration.html"&gt; link &lt;/a&gt; alla pagina del manuale ubuntu per la configurazione delle schede di rete&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7169263898330543054-3640321328649563470?l=alexbindo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/feeds/3640321328649563470/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/2009/01/jeos-810-on-esx-35.html#comment-form' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7169263898330543054/posts/default/3640321328649563470'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7169263898330543054/posts/default/3640321328649563470'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/2009/01/jeos-810-on-esx-35.html' title='JeOS 8.10 on ESX 3.5'/><author><name>aLex</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10670589984265709385</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7169263898330543054.post-4142838188981238127</id><published>2009-01-30T10:29:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2009-01-30T14:31:23.200+01:00</updated><title type='text'>problema time sync in ambiente virtuale</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&amp;cmd=displayKC&amp;externalId=1005824"&gt; link &lt;/a&gt; a una kb di vmware a uno dei problemi più spinosi delle macchine virtuali: la gestione del tempo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nello specifico Windows 2003 in un server con processori AMD.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7169263898330543054-4142838188981238127?l=alexbindo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/feeds/4142838188981238127/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/2009/01/problema-time-sync-in-ambiente-virtuale.html#comment-form' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7169263898330543054/posts/default/4142838188981238127'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7169263898330543054/posts/default/4142838188981238127'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexbindo.blogspot.com/2009/01/problema-time-sync-in-ambiente-virtuale.html' title='problema time sync in ambiente virtuale'/><author><name>aLex</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10670589984265709385</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7169263898330543054.post-1179605195366554819</id><published>2009-01-27T14:37:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2009-01-27T14:41:05.174+01:00</updated><title type='text'>VirtualCenter for linux</title><content type='html'>leggo con piacere la &lt;a href="http://www.virtualization.info/2009/01/vmware-vsphere-40-will-have-vcenter.html"&gt;notizia&lt;/a&gt; che finalmente è disponibile uan versione di VirtualCenter o come si chiama adesso vCenter Server per linux.
