A blog for all the virtualization and operating system troubleshooting

 In case of all VMs have vmware tools installed, use below command to list all IP address assigned for VM inside a ESXi server for i in `vim-cmd vmsvc/getallvms | grep -v Vmid | awk '{print $1}'`; do vim-cmd vmsvc/get.guest $i | grep -i 'ipaddress = "'; done

 Azure VMware Solution(AVS) provides a vCenter server with minimum 3 node ESXi hosts while provision.  But the issue is that AVS will be created with only private cloud networks. For accessing we need to create a windows jump host .For this follow below step 1.Create AVS. 2.Create a resource "virtual network" on the same region of AVS. 3.Create a resource "virtual network gateway" with "express route" as type. 3.create a express route key  request on AVS.       AVS->Connectivity:       Now copy express ID and key. 4.Go to VPN gateway ->Connections->Add connection      check "redeem authentication" and provide "express key/ID" 5.Now create a windows jump host server on the above create vNet.

 If Debian linux console root account locked follow below: Reboot the debain VM and in console Press  e  to reach the GRUB menu. Change the   boot options Delete  console=tty2 quiet loglevel=2  and replace with the boot option   init=/bin/bash  as  4. Press  Ctrl+X  or  F10  to enter  root@(none):/#  prompt. Run  fsck -f -y -v  /dev/sdc1  repeatedly until there are no more errors. Enter the command  reboot -f   to reboot the VM.

 Error:  Key provider scvntp is not compatible with the host . Reason: "The host does not support Native Key Provider. Solution:  Below are the two requirement for the above issue. 1. ESXI  Host in a cluster. 2. Host licensed for enterprise+.

 Error: After enabling Native Key provider (NKP) in vCenter 7.x next steps is to backup the key provider. while select backup and provider password, we get below error: vmware backup of native key provide has failed Solution: Make sure you connected vCenter from browser using FQDN name while doing backup. Also check FQDN of the vCenter server is properly configured with connecting https://<VCIP>:5480  using root credentials.

 Error: Connect-SsoAdminServer: A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument Solution: In linux powershell use " -Server" parameter to provide VC_ADDRESS
