HP Insight Dynamics 6.3 Release Notes

Suggested action
Recreate the CSV using master boot record (MBR) storage. GPT disks are typically used only if you
need volumes that exceed 2TB.
Multiple datastores are not supported
All storage volumes for a virtual machine logical server must be part of the same datastore. (To
import a virtual machine, the virtual machine must be using a single datastore.) File volumes are
created on the same disk as the virtual machine's configuration file.
Logical server management supports virtual machines created only on the first partition of a physical
disk
If a physical disk has multiple partitions (volumes with the same disk identifier), only the first volume
is recognized and supported by logical server management. For example, if a disk has volumes
C:, D:, and E:, you can create and import a virtual machine logical server created only on the C:
volume.
VM kernel port name used for management traffic must be “Management Network”
In VMware ESXi, the default name of the Virtual Machine (VM) kernel port used for management
traffic is “Management Network”. Do not modify this name in the vCenter client user interface. If
this name is modified, the following will result.
• When trying to activate a logical server, the ESXi hosts appear as Rejected Target Hosts with
an error that the hosts are not part of vCenter, or that VMM is unable to get vCenter information
for the VM Host.
• The association between the host and vCenter does not appear in Systems Insight Manager.
Suggested action
Modify the Network Label of the VMKernel port used for management traffic to “Management
Network” by performing the following steps.
1. Log into the vCenter using the vCenter client.
2. Select the Hosts and Clusters view from the menu View→Inventory.
3. Select the ESXi server from the tree displayed in the left pane.
4. Select the Configuration tab from the right pane.
5. From the Hardware section, select Networking.
6. Click Properties for the Virtual Switch where the VMKernel port used for management traffic
is located. If there are multiple VMKernel ports located on multiple virtual switches and
configured for management traffic, select the switch that has the VMKernel port that has the
IP that is registered with Insight Control virtual machine management (VMM) , or that will be
used for registration with VMM.
7. In the pop-up that displays the virtual switch properties, select the service console port and
click the Edit button.
8. Change the Network Label to Management Network and click OK. Close the virtual switch
properties pop-up window.
It can take a maximum of five minutes for the cache to be refreshed and the API to report the ESXi
host.
Moving a logical server from a Microsoft Hyper-V R2 host to a Hyper-V R1 host is not supported
A limitation from Microsoft prevents you from moving or reactivating a virtual machine logical
server from a Microsoft Hyper-V R2 host to a Hyper-V R1 host. An error message is displayed if
you attempt the operation.
You can move or reactivate a virtual machine logical server from a Hyper-V R1 host to a Hyper-V
R2 host.
