Windows 10: ESXi went to "Not Responding" state when adding IP address in ESXI firewall ports via PowerCLI

Hi Expert,ESXi went to "Not Responding" state when we are adding IP address in the firewall ports via PowersCLIExplanation of what the script does: The script is supposed to execute on the server which PowersCLI has been installed . The script will get the vCenter inputs and fetch all the ESXi available in the vCenter and executed in all the ESXi’s. The script will modify the existing firewall with the ports mentioned below and restrict access to those ports from outside the networks defined.

Windows 2012 Licensing on ESXi

In a Windows 2012 standard license we can have only 2 VMs; so in one ESXi server(of any sockets) we can host a maximum of 2 VMs; so in my environment we have 3 esxi hosts in a cluster with each running 2 VMs.



so please let me know how much Windows standard/Datacenter license should I procure.



As per my understanding; i will require 3 datacenter licenses.



We cannot have 3 standard windows license because we can have only 2 VMs per host (3 servers); this is OK in ideal case scenario.



But if we need to move one VM from one ESXi host to another i.e

ESXi 1 having 1 VMs

ESXi 2 having 3 VMs ---> violation of licensing

ESXi 3 having 2 VMs

then it will be a violation of the licensing policies.



Please correct if my understanding is wrong.

AMD GPU Monitoring in ESXi 5.5

Hi there,

I have an ESXi 5.5 host that contains an AMD GPU. I am looking for a way of viewing GPU usage statistics. GPU-Z is not compatible with ESXi, and AMD's own 'amdconfig' util is also not compatible.

I have previously used Nvidia GRID GPUs with ESXi and they provide their "nvidia-smi" tool, but AMD does not include anything in their driver package.

Can anybody offer any suggestions of how I can monitor GPU statistics within ESXi? This is a vSGA configuration, i.e. not a PCIe passthrough, so installing GPU-Z in the guest VM is not an option as the video driver is at the hypervisor level.

Thanks in advance, Hammond.
