System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008 and 2008 R2 Configuration Analyzer VMMCA

alkin — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 17:25:34 GMT

Hey All,

Microsoft just released the new VMMCA for vmm 2008 and vmm 2008 r2.

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=02d83950-c03d-454e-803b-96d1c1d5be24&displaylang=en

Brief Description

Virtual Machine Manager 2008 and 2008 R2 Configuration Analyzer (VMMCA) is a diagnostic tool that you can use to evaluate important configuration settings for computers that either are serving or might serve VMM roles or other VMM functions.

Important

You must install and run the VMMCA on the computer that either currently is or will become your VMM 2008 server.
You should use this version of the VMMCA with VMM 2008 and VMM 2008 R2 only. To download the VMMCA for VMM 2007, go tohttp://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=132136.

The VMMCA is a diagnostic tool you can use to evaluate important configuration settings for computers that either are serving or might serve VMM roles or other VMM functions. The VMMCA scans the hardware and software configurations of the computers you specify, evaluates them against a set of predefined rules, and then provides you with error messages and warnings for any configurations that are not optimal for the VMM role or other VMM function that you have specified for the computer.

I will soon post a blog about the results of the VMMCA.

Thanks,

Alexandre Verkinderen

MVUG Event Securing Hyper-V

alkin — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 17:49:00 GMT

Securing Hyper-V (with the Winsec User Group)

Date and time: THURSDAY 1st October 2009, start at 18u30 until around 21u00.
Event Location: Microsoft BELUX - Corporate Village - Leonardo Da Vincilaan 3 - B-1935 Zaventem
Entry: Free
Registration: send a mail to benoit@mvug.be
Focus: with the rising popularity of virtualization, it is time to start thinking about how you secure your virtual environment. During this presentation, best practices for securing a virtual environment based on Microsoft’s Hyper-V are discussed, both from the angle of the Hyper-V host as from the angle of the guests. Further it will be shown how you can use Authorization Manager (AzMan) to provide role-based access control for Hyper-V, separating host administrators from guest administrators and precisely delegating control to them, which will also be shown using System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SC VMM).

More information can be found on the MVUG site http://mvug.be/content/Events.aspx

System Center Virtual Machine Manager: Hosts having 0kb free memory

Mike's Blog : scvmm — Sat, 29 Aug 2009 17:24:42 GMT

Hey All, One of the big issues with SCVMM 2008 for me was that the memory available on the hosts is not correct. If you are running quite a large environment with a lot of virtual machines, it is difficult to know how many you have left. You can of course start calculating it manually but… ;-) So here’s a screenshot of the problem As you can see, all my hosts are giving zero kb free of memory. That’s not exactly correct Here’s how to solve this one: On each host that has this problem, open the registry and go to the following key: HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\PerfOS\Parameters If you see the key “Disable Performance Counters” then change it to 0. Now you need to restart the WMI service on the host. Please pay attention because it will restart other services too and you don’t want to do this during production hours… After that the services are restarted, you can refresh your configuration in SCVMM and then you get the correct figures Cheers, Mike...(read more)

Virtual Machine Manager 2008: Cost Center

Mike's Blog : scvmm — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 10:21:47 GMT

Hey All, One of the nice things in Virtual Machine Manager is the Cost Center feature. Although this seems like “just another field in the database”, it can come in handy when you need to prove to your management which business unit is using what resources. Or, if the servers are used for certain projects, you can prove which project is using what. This can be handy when you need more hardware and the management asks a prove if you are using everything you’ve got ;-) In my example, I’ve added some cost centers to some servers. You do this by double-clicking on the virtual server or by opening the properties of it. As you can see, I’ve added the Cost Center MSS to this server (which is actually the business unit I’m working for ;-)) Now the fun starts when you have Operations Manager in place and you have imported the Virtual Machine Manager Management Pack into OpsMgr. Now you get cool reporting. In Virtual Machine Manager, I go to reporting and I have one...(read more)

How to Enable Reporting in Virtual Machine Manager 2007

alkin — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 08:34:42 GMT

This week I imported the virtual management pack in our opsmgr. Now I wanted to see my Opmsgr reports from my vmm 2007 console.

Based on the info on technet this is the procedure the configure your vmm for reporting:

Use the following procedure to enable reporting in Virtual Machine Manager after you deploy the Server Virtualization Management Pack for System Center Operations Manager 2007, set up your report server in Operations Manager, and have the Operations Manager administrator add you to the Report Operator role in Operations Manager. For more information about deploying the Management Pack, see Setting Up Reporting.

Until you perform this procedure, Reporting view is not displayed and reports are not available in the Virtual Machine Manager Administrator Console.

To enable reporting in Virtual Machine Manager

1. In Administration view, click Settings in the navigation pane, and then, in the results pane, click Reporting Settings.

2. In the Actions pane, under Settings, click Modify.

3. To enable reporting, in the Reporting Settings dialog box:

a. Select the Enable reporting check box.

b. Specify the URL for the Operations Manager report server in the following format: http://<OpsMgrReportServer>/reportserver, where <OpsMgrReportServer> is the name of your report server and /reportserver is the default name of the report server virtual directory.

4. To add Reporting view to the Administrator Console, close and reopen the console.

5. To display Reporting view, click the Reporting button beneath the navigation pane.

6. To display the Virtual Machine Manager reports, click Reports in the navigation pane.

The results pane lists the Virtual Machine Manager reports. If you do not see any reports, you might not have been added to the Report Operator role in Operations Manager. Contact your Operations Manager administrator to arrange this.
