These hosts are 3.0.1.

Any ideas?

Hi,

Did my upgrade to 2.5 tonight wihtout any hitches (at the moment) other than this, the below solved my issue with early non upto date 3.01 hosts;

service mgmt-vmware stop

/etc/init.d/vmware-vpxa stop

rpm -e VMware-vpxa-2.0.1-32042 (to delete the agent manually)

service mgmt-vmware restart

Leave host for a few minutes and then reconnect in VC.

Thanks

Dan

I have a W2k3 Std box running Virtual Center 1.2.0-12684. When I try to add my GSX host running W2k3 STD w/GSX 3.2.0-14497 over port 902 I get an error - "Connection failed for host.myhost.com: Failed to install/upgrade VMware VirtualCenter agent". Is there anyway to install this agent manually? Has anyone else seen this issue, if so could you point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

-Dave

OK - success at last. I found a knowledgebase article after more searching (search is your friend IF you are persistent) KB1449 article here: http://www.vmware.com/support/kb/enduser/std_adp.php?p_sid=lDhR4UNhp_lva=p_faqid=1449p_created=1097884047p_sp=cF9zcmNoPTEmcF9ncmlkc29ydD0mcF9yb3dfY250PTEwNDUmcF9zZWFyY2hfdGV4dD0gRmFpbGVkIHRvIGluc3RhbGwvdXBncmFkZSBWTXdhcmUgVmlydHVhbENlbnRlciBhZ2VudCZwX3NlYXJjaF90eXBlPTcmcF9wcm9kX2x2bDE9fmFueX4mcF9wcm9kX2x2bDI9fmFueX4mcF9zb3J0X2J5PWRmbHQmcF9wYWdlPTE*p_li=

describes how to install the agent manually. Be advised however, on GSX in Windows run this from a command prompt because the install package from Vcenter fails. This is probably why the tools don't install automatically:

C:\vcagentccagent-upgrade-gsx-1-win32-9089.exe

UnZipSFX 5.50 of 17 February 2002, by Info-ZIP (Zip-Bugs@lists.wku.edu).

inflating: installer.exe

inflating: vmserverdWin32.exe

'.\installer.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.

C:\vcagentinstaller.exe

Beginning upgrade...

Done (success).[/code]

So after the installer.exe is unzipped, just run that manually and you will be able to connect your GSX box.

Hi,
We're using SCVMM since 2008R2 with 2 Failover Cluster (one for management, the other for production)
So both cluster were in WS 2012 and we upgraded last week SCVMM 2012SP1 to SCVMM 2012R2. The next step was to upgrade the management cluster in WS 2012R2 and that's what we did with a fresh install.

But we've past last 3 days trying to addone of 2012R2 management HyperVto SCVMM, failed every time. Each time we receive the following error messages in VMM :

Error (20413)
VMM encountered a critical exception and created an exception report at C:\ProgramData\VMMLogs\SCVMM.26b08abf-7be1-4a3b-8822-66f156081488\report.txt.
Recommended Action
See the report for more details and search user forums for well-known failure root causes for self-help.

Here's what look like the log file :

Agent communication is blocked. On HyperV FQDN, the version of virtualization software or the VMM agent is unsupported.

Update the agent and virtualization software, and then try the operation again.

Recommended Action
Ensure that all the nodes are online and do not have Not Responding status in Virtual Machine Manager. Then refresh the host cluster again.
Then we've tried lot of combinations :
- New HyperV Fresh Install (FW disabled, Winrm qc, trustedhosts *)
- New SCVMM 2012 R2 Fresh Install (initially on WS 2012 Datacenter to WS 2012 R2 Datacenter)
- New SCVMM Database
- With our without failover cluster
- Installation of SCVMM agent on the host instead of from SCVMM console
- SCVMM Agent installed as perimiter host or not
- Tried to fix HyperV and SCVMM Server NetBIOS name and FQDN in hosts file
- Both VMM and HyperV are full updated, and without antivirus
So now we really don't know what's the mistake and why we cannot simply add 2012R2 HyperV in SCVMM
Any help would really be appreciated
BR

Just opened a case with Microsoft. Here was the answer we were given.

Symptom
When trying to add a specific host to SCVMM the service is crashing which prevents you from adding the host.
Cause
This is caused by a bug in the Windows 8 MPIO WMI provider code that incorrectly handles MPIO VendorDevice string lengths incorrectly. When the string
length of the string is less than 24 characters you will run into this issue.
Resolution
1. This issue is slated to be fixed in the next release of Windows.
2. To workaround the issue make sure the MPIO VendorDevice string that you enter into the MPIO console is exactly 24 characters. If the string is too short pad it with extra spaces.

I am trying to install the Appmanager agent on my Virtual Center and am having configuration problems.

I installed this on a test VC system that uses the Access db, by using a local admin account to authenticate the VC web service, but that doesn't appear to work when using SQL. I am guessing what I need is a domain account that is a local admin and has rights to the SQL database. If anyone is running this config and could offer any tips, I would appreciate it.

You hit the nail on the head.

Domain account with local admin privs on the server.SQL needs System DN connection.

I have seen this behavior on multiple servers. I receive this error when upgrading from a 2007 Agent to SCOM 2012.

I'm running System Center 2012 SP1 Version 3.1.6018.0
Guests all run Server 2008R2 SP1
I'm having a weird issue when trying to install guests services on a domain controller. On all of the virtual machines of the host, when trying to deploy the guest agent, it fails on all machines with the same error:
Error (2940)
VMM is unable to complete the requested file transfer. The connection to the HTTP server XXXXXXX could not be established.
Unknown error (0x80072ee2)

Recommended Action
Ensure that the HTTP service and/or the agent on the machine powstorehv1.gicw.org are installed and running and that a firewall is not blocking HTTP/HTTPS traffic on the configured port.
I have confirmed that there is no firewall blocking the process so in order to bypass this, I decided to just install the guest agent manually. This worked on all of the virtual machines on the host except for the one that is a Domain Controller.
At the point when it tries to start the service it gives me the following error:
Service 'Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager Guest Agent' (ScvmmGuestService) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.
I have tried with and without UAC enabled and I always run the MSI from an elevated command prompt. I've tried with and without MSIEXEC as well. I have Enterprise and Domain Admin privileges as well and have even tried with the domain administrator account.
At this point I'm not sure why I do not have sufficient privileges to start the service on a Domain Controller but I do understand that permissions are different due to its nature.
Any ideas around this either by installing through SCVMM or manually? Thank you in advance for your time!

Hi,
I've recently upgraded to SCVMM 2012 and want to P2V a current machine. However when I get to the scan section (as in other threads on here) it hangs and when I install it from the command line with the log file output, it also hangs.

When I check the services the VMMp2vagent is continually 'starting'. hence the hang. I flicked it to manual and restarted so I could change the log on account and still no luck.
I've tried installing this as administrator and still nothing, seeing as the log points to permissions, am I missing something glaringly obvious?
The event log throws up event ID 7031 saying the service terminated unexpectedly.

The vmm log created shows:

Hi all,

I have just installed the last version of esx 3.5 from the site. And also the last version of virtual center 2.5 from the site.

The installation of both went fine until i tried to add the host, then the center enters a phase of "in progress" and after about 5-10 minutes end with an error that "failed to install the virtualcenter agent service".

I will add that they are behind firewall but i have opened all the ports between the servers.

Is there a manual install of the virtualcenter agent? or something else that i need to configure?

this is the first time that something likde that happens, if anyone have an idea, please

Thanks

Ronen

Hi Ronen,

We only implemented VC2.5 to manage our mixed 3.0.1 and 3.5 ESX server. We googled the error, and found the article. We only had to follow the first part of the article, and create the temporary directory as described in the article.

Hope this put you somewhat more at ease.

If the comments were useful, please consider awarding points.

Thanks

Hi there,
I've just run out of ideas trying to troubleshoot my issue with installing the P2V agent on a Windows Server 2008 server. I started off trying to do the install using SCE 2010 GUI. This failed and I received a message that said the source server
was uncontactable. I rebooted the source server and tried again. This time I got a message indicating there was a problem with the agent on the server and that I needed to reinstall agent. I checked the source server Programs and Features
and found no trace of the P2V agent. I checked Windows Services and there is a service for the P2V agent. I tried to start the service and it says it cannot find the file. I checked
C:\Program Files and found there was a folder named Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008 P2V Agent
however only a folder named bin existed within it and no files in the folder
bin.
I tried to install over the top using the vmmP2Vsource.msi however it says another version of the agent already exists. I have also tried to run the msi with the /uninstall switch with no luck.
I expect my problem will be fixed if I can manually remove the partially installed agent but need some advice on how to do so safely.
Appreciate any advice you all can provide!

Failed to install the VirtualCenter agent service" when trying to add a 3.01 server to virtual center 2.02.

Others added correctly - both 3.01 and 3.02

Had the same problem and restarted the agents on the hosts and all was good.

I am having a problem installing 2.5 Virtual Center on my W2003 SP2 box

So far I have

installed SQl 2005 native client on the VC

created a new database on my SQL 2005 server

created a new SQL id and given it DBO permissions on the database and the MSDB database

started the install of VC 2.5

created the File DSN ODBC called VMWare VirtualCenter accessing the above new database and SQL ID - it tests fine

However when i get to the point where the database and id is specified in the VC 2.5 install wizard I get

'setup failed to connect to the database. Please make sure you entered the correct data source name, username and password.'

i know these details are correct as the File DSN connects fine when I configure it with identical details.

if I try a System DSN i get 'please make sure the SQL agent service is running on the database server' - if I click OK - I get warning that the databsae is set to full recovery - then the install proceeds - then I get 'error 25003 - setup failed to create the Virtual center repository'

I have tried repeating the process even with new databases but it fails at the same place

Any ideas anyone ?

hi Troy

Yes I have those permissions in place - dbo rights on thee MSDB database

Hi Wai,
Thank you so much the problem is solved with the patch 138482-01

WE had our SCVVMM 2008 Working fine with our 3 node cluster of Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V Machines. But now SCVMM is having difficulties communicating with the 3 node cluster. IF we try to reinstall the agent we get the following message. Product: Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager Agent (x64) -- Failed to configure the WS-Management service. In the Local Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc), navigate to Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Windows Remote Management (WinRM), and then ensure that there are no policy settings configured for WinRM Client or WinRM Service. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks Bill Bacoyiannis

Hi,
 
According to the description, the issue seems to be related to SCVMM. As we mainly focus on the Hyper-V question about Windows Server system and here is not the best support resource for SCVMM, it is recommend you to get further support in the corresponding community so that you can get the most qualified pool of respondents. Thanks for your understanding.

Hi everybody Guys,

yesterday after some weeks planning, we just installed VC2.0.1 patch 1.

I'd like to notice that the Install Guide of VMWARE says that (as all the upgrade process for a service) you have to make a backup copy of the VC DB, even if no modification to the schema of the DB is made during Installation.

http://www.vmware.com/support/vi3/doc/vc-201-200611-patch.html#installing

Notice that on a SQL Server 2000 English SP4, after applaying the patch, the tables describing the entire Datacenter Structure on the DB were empty.

So:

1 - stop Virtual Center Server Service

2 - restore SQL Server 2000 DB

3 - start Virtual Center Server Service

After that Datacenter Structure becomes available;

then VC starts upgrading the VC Agent of the Hosts of the Datacenter.

If the process fail, try to reapply HA configuration on the single Host.

Thus[/b]: BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP before Starting everything!!!

Bye

Hello,

I am hoping to get a little help here. Dowloaded and install ESXi and have left it in evaluation mode (did not enter licenesing info yet) Also downloaded Virtual Center and installed it. Tried to connect via localhost, but it was looking for the licens file. I created and installed one (Virtual Center 1.4 adn VC Agent for VMware Server 16-CPU) Was able to log into Virtual Center. Created a server farm and tried to add the ESXi host using the wizard. Whenever I do, I get Connection Failed for x.x.x.x Server agent not responding

x.x.x.x is the ip address of the ESXi server. If it intentionally screw up the password, it does tell me the pw is invalid, so I know it is contacting the server.

I have read all the postings about purchasing licensing, but in the evaluation modes, I thought this should work.

Any ideas???? Your help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Gene

Thank you..Thank you...Thank you. I beleive I accidentaly downloaded the VMServer Virtual Center by mistake and not the VM Infrastrucutre......Excellent and I appreciate the quick reply. Have a super day!!!!

Hi,

This weekend during the backup one of our ESX servers got disconnected in Virtual Center, leaving the message "Issue detected on host.net.local in Datacenter. Virtual machine creation may fail because agent is unable

to retreive vm creation options from host"

I tried restarting the hosts management agents and reconnect it but that didn't work out.

Anyone any idea what's going on?

Regards,

Joris

Hi Andre, this was concerning a 3.5i host, so i restarted the hostd and vpxa services using the Console option but nothing happend.

I restarted the management services, after that reconnected and a login screen appeared (when adding a ESX host). I re-entered the root credentials and the host got connected. Strangely enough Virtual Center 'forgot' the proper credentials i guess...

Thanks for the help.

When I try to add a hyper-v host to system center, I get the error:
Error (421)
Agent installation failed on hyper-v because of a WS-Management configuration error.

Recommended Action
Ensure that the Windows Remote Management service is enabled and running on the server hyper-v. Additionally, in the Local Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc), navigate to Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Windows Remote Management
(WinRM), and then ensure that there are no policy settings configured for WinRM Client or WinRM Service.

When I install the agent manually on the hyper-v host (vmmagent.msi), I get the error:
Error (413)
The files needed to install agent, version , are missing from the Virtual Machine Manager server VMC.

Recommended Action
Reinstall the missing files by running Virtual Machine Manager Server Setup.

-------------------
Steps that I have taken to troubleshoot this issue:

To check integrity of or repair your host WMI repository,

run winmgmt /salvagerepository.

To check your WMI virtualization store,

start
wbemtest by using a local admin account of the host machine and connect to \\host\root\virtualization Try query select * from msvm_ComputerSystem and see if it succeeds.

To check your host's WMI namespace security settings,

Go to Server Manager, click on Configuration then right-click on WMI Control and choose Properties
Click on Security tab, choose SCVMM and check its Security Settings.

Make sure that both Administrators group and Virtual Machine Manager Servers group have the full rights on the namespace.

To check your WnRM state,

run winrm qc.

To check if the WinRM listener is running,

run winrm enum winrm/config/listener, or
run winrm get winrm/config to get the entire WinRM config.

To check if your VMM agent is responding to winrm calls,

run winrm invoke GetVersion wmi/root/scvmm/AgentManagement -r:http://host@{}.

To manually restart VMM server service:

run net stop vmmservice, and run net start vmmservice.

To manually restart VMM host agent service:

run net stop vmmagent, and run net start vmmagent.

To manually restart Hyper-V service:

run net stop vmms, and run net start vmms.

The only test that has failed is the winrm AgentManagement query. I can connect to wmi/root/scvmm, but AgentManagement does not exist. Does anyone have any ideas? (All other tests passed OK - same result - can't install agent or add hyper-v host)

Hello,

I just downloaded a trial version of Virtualcenter and installed the virtualserver (all) on my desktop (winXP)

When I try to add a host (a Vmware-server Virtual machine) somewhere on our network ;he says he cannot contact the agent.

I know on the Vm an agent should be installed but I don't know how.

I installed the client and was able to connect from the VM to my virtual center server.

So my question is : how can I install an agent on my VM-host so I can monitor it and add it into my virtual center server ?

Thank you,

Johan

You need at least one HOST too!

VC is only a management console

Hi

im trying to add two esx 2.5.3 hosts to my VC2 inventory...

first i was getting the "Failed to install the Virtual Center agent service" while trying to connect to the hosts from VC, then i installed the vpx-upgrade-esx-5-linux-27704 on both hosts manualy.

one of the got connected, the other still shows the same error message, i already rebooted after aplying the update, but its not letting me connect to the host from vc

id appreciate little help on this

thank you.

There is a setting on the VC2 server that you must clear for 2.5.x servers to register correctly. I think it is availabe from the Menu bar and has something to do with unchecking the option "Do not change the host licensing option" or something close to that. I'm working from memory as I am not at work but I had a similar problem.

Hi all,

We got 2 x BL460c G7 into our HP C7000 enclosure recently. Installed VMWare ESXi 4.1 U1 (HP Version) but I am unable to add these hosts into our Virtual Center for management.

Errors: Cannot install vcenter agent service. Cannot upload agent

I've checked the HCL and HP BL460c G7 are on there and I've used the HP version of VMWare.

Question: I was wondering whether there are any users out there would experienced similar issues and what they've done to overcome them.

HP BL460c iLO FW: v1.2

HP VC Flex10 FW: v3.18

HP OA FW: v3.21

VMWare ESXi 4.1 U1 348481

VMWare Virtual Center 4.1.0 Build 345043

**Note: I've also attached the hostd log. Please let me know if there are any other logs that might help with this....

Cheers,

Jeff

the advice to rollback/uninstall the update windows management framework core package. I can't do that.

Hi,

I am unable to add ESX 301 to VC 202, giving error: Failed to install the VirtualCenter Agent service.

Thanks,

Sri

Thanks Richard, Now i am able add ESX server to VC.

I'm playing with a demo of VI and I'm trying to connect my existing ESXi server but it generates "Unable to install virtual infrastructure client"

What can I do to get it installed?

Reinstalled ESXi server and it worked...

I wanted to try the boot off thumb drive anyway.

When I try to add a host to the Virtual Center I get the following error message "Failed to install VirtualCenter Agent". All my Licenses are fine I have 15 more to use and I am logging in as an Administrator.

You likely will need to install the virtual center agent service manually. See this thread:

Hello,
I have installed System Center R2 Operation Manager Evaluation on a Windows Server 2012 R2 server.
I did a complete installation to test System Center if it would fit our needs and therefore tried to add one Windows Server 2012 R2 server (clean install, no extra roles) by using the Agent Management Task.
Now when I select a server and choose to install the agent on the server I receive the following message:
The Agent Management Operation Agent Install failed for remote computer ADFS03.xxxxxxxxxxxx.Install account: INTRANET\scop_msaaError
Code: 80070644

The user scop_msaa is the Management Server Agent Account and is a member of Domain admins for INTRANET. I have checked the logs and got:

Also in Operation Manager I can see it was a success adding the server.

I can see the server in 'Administration - Pending Management' as filtered 'Type: Failed Agent Installation'. Now I have rightclicked server and selected 'Install Agent' and received a Success this time. I did choose for 'Use Management Server Agent Account'
and for 'Local User/Service' (cannot remember). What is the difference between these two and how can I make sure I get success on first try?

Thanks!

Thanks for reporting the bug.

This issue pertains to creation of SSL certificates by the System Center 2012 VMM server for a variety
of tasks such as installation, adding a host, adding a library and deploying services. We understand the issue and are investigating further. This issue is related to the leap year date of 2/29 and will not impact operations hereafter.

Also, I suspect may be issue with WMI then checked WMI repository and it is in consistent state. winmgmt /verifyrepository.
Please help on this issue.
Any help would be appreciated.

I'm running ESX 3.0.1. I currently have a license for virtual center and have installed it successfully. We're going through an IP renumbering project and when I changed the IP address of my virtual center host and restarted it all my vm's were in a disconnected state.

I've decided to install another virtual center on a host in the new IP subnet. Since we only have one virtual center license I cut and paste the VC license into my server based license file on the new host (another project is a migration of exisiting vm's to new ESX hosts in the new subnet), which is also a new license server.

The license server installs and the service starts ok. When I then attempt to install virtual center it installs ok, but the service terminates right away. The event log states that the virtual center service failed to initialize.

My question - Why is virtual center service terminating?

Thanks

thanks are welcome. Points are much better.

Please assign points for helpful answers.

See you on VMTN

Yesterday afternoon I scp'd a virtual machine from one ESX farm to another. Once the copy was completed I registed the VM (through datastore browser) and immediately experienced a Virtual Center crash - error message was "Connection to the server has been lost.The application will now exit". Our Virtual Center server is a Dell PE2850 running VC2.02 v.50618 with a SQL 2K5 database running locally. The error in the VC log was:

Win32SEHTranslator: Access Violation (0xc0000005) ebp: 0x358ed24, eip: 0x573a5b

exception: Assert failed!

Backtrace:(backtraces not supported)

CoreDump: Writing minidump

Restarting the VC service and rebooting the VC server resulted in the error "Connection refused". I disabled the VC servers network connection and was able to start the Virtual Center application. The application started with all ESX (version 3.02 52542) servers disconnected naturally, so I enabled the VC server's network connection and started connecting the ESX servers one at a time until I found the offending server. It was the server I had just attempted to register the virtual machine I had just copied over. I restarted the VC agent on that ESX server, but had the same result - once I tried to reconnect the ESX server to Virtual Center, the VC service would crash and I would have to restart the VC service. I then un-registered the virtual machine in question and Virtual Center would start normally with all ESX servers connected. Once I registered the virtual machine (by vmware-cmd this time) it crashes VC immediately. Has anyone seen this issue? It appears to me that the issue is on the ESX side when it tries to send data to VC at Virtual Center start-up. Fortunately this occured in our Test environment and I was able to spend some time on it. Unfortunately, I had this exact issue on our Production environment (ESX 3.01/VC 2.01on SQL) two months ago and opened a SR, only to be told by VMware that it was a corrupt VC database and to re-install/re-initialize VC. Having experienced this issue twice in the last couple of months, I was wondering if other folks have had issues with registering vm's or issues with Virtual Center crashing as a result of trying to register a vm. Also, any info where I could find any extended error information from the ESX server side.

My advice is to unregister (which you've undoubtedly done by now to keep VC running). Move the vmx file to a backup name or location. Create a new VM based on the disk files.

I think this crash happens when the config file is wonky. I had the same error and VMware support thrashed about for over 24 hours while my VC wouldn't run. I gave up on them and read the logs, found the assert, traced it in the db to the offending system and unregistered it in 10 minutes the next morning.

 
After install VMM 2008 I am able to add Hyper-V servers just fine to the VMM console. All the virtual servers show up and I'm quite excited with the interface and what I can do. The problem I am having is when adding virtual Server 2005 servers to the interface. When I add a VS 2005 R2 SP1 (1.1.603.0 EE R2 SP1) server to the VMM interface it shows up for a few seconds, register 0% and then disapear.
 
In the event log of the VS 2005 server I get the following error:
Product: System Center Virtual Machine Manager Agent -- Failed to configure the WS-Management service. Refer to the FAQ for more information.
 
In the system log I get the following errors:
The VMInstallDetector service terminated with service-specific error 2148925441 (0x80160001)
and
The VMAgentInstaller service terminated with service-specific error 2148925446 (0x80160006).

The problem was I didn't have the newer version of WinRM: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=845289ca-16cc-4c73-8934-dd46b5ed1d33DisplayLang=en
 
Solved, Thanks!

I have a VMM Host machine which is a Windows 2008 x64 SP1. I'm attempting to add a host which is running Windows 2008 x64 R2. When the job runs to install the VMM Agent I'm receiving the following error:
Error (2912)
An internal error has occurred trying to contact an agent on the vhmipor05.manatron.com server.
(The remote procedure call failed (0x800706BE))

Recommended Action

Ensure the agent is installed and running. Ensure the WS-Management service is installed and running, then restart the agent.The agent and WS-Management Service seem to be installed and running, however the Host shows as Needing Attention in VMM and that status shows Connection Status of Not Responding.
On the host (R2) the Event log is showing errors every 2 minutes with the VMM Agent as follows:

We installed virtual center patch for vi 2.0.1.40644. Install went very smooth. However the ESX hosts are receiving the following errors: Failed to install the virtual center client agent service and Unable to contact a primary HA Agent in cluster Any ideas

It has been seen that simply restarting the hostd process can cause the upgrade to happen without the need to manually do it.

I am trying to monitor some of our Red Hat VM's in SCOM 2012 but running intoa problem, after i run discovery i get the following error-

Message :
No installable UNIX/Linux agent is available
Details:
Failed to find a matching agent kit to install

I did some google searches, and it said i should see an agent in -
C:\Program Files\System Center 2012\Operations Manager\Server\AgentManagement\UnixAgents\DownloadedKits , but all i have in there is GetOSVersion.sh and nothing else, i have tried to re-import the management packs but to no avail.

There is no .rpm files in C:\Program Files\System Center 2012\Operations Manager\Server\Health Service State\Resources\ either, which is another thing i found to look for....

Can i manually download the agent and place it in the DownloadedKits directory? Or any other suggestions?

Thanks
Pete

No i hadn't realised i had to import them from there!

Got them in and now able to manage the RH boxes, thanks so much

I had some problems upgrading from 2.0.1 to 2.0.2 and as such i created a new DB for virtual centre.

Now i am unable to recconnect the existing hosts to this Virtual Centre,

I'm getting the following errors...

"Failed to install the VirtualCenter Agent Service"

Can anyone help?

Had exactly the same problem when I upgraded. If I remember correctly the /tmp/vmware-root directory needs to be created and then the mgmt-vmware service needs restarting in the service console for every host. The article below explains in further detail.

We are having a problem with the VMM2012 and OpsMgr 2012 integration. Both systems have a single MS and have been updated from the previous version.
When we set up the connection in VMM the following error is displayed after a few seconds:
VMM Management group object cannot be found.
One or more of the Virtual Machine Manager objects monitored by Operations Manager could not be discovered. This might be caused by a missing or outdated version of the System Center Virtual Machine Manager management pack in Operations Manager.
- The OpsMgr Agent is running on the VMM MS
- The MPs are all imported
- We already cleared the health state of the agent and tried a repair install
- The account used is administrator in both systems and local admin on SCVMM

We have one warning in OpsMgr regarding the SCVMM MS:
The process started at 11:33:26 AM failed to create System.PropertyBagData.

Errors found in output:

C:\Program Files\System Center Operations
Manager\Agent\Health Service State\Monitoring Host Temporary Files

When we run the PRO test in the OpsMgr connector on SCVMM it fails after while with the following error message:
Error (25921)
Failed to create diagnostics PRO tip
Recommended Action
Check if Operations Manager Agent is running on the computer running VMM management server and that it is monitored.

Does anyone havean idea what else we can check or how to fix this.

Thank you

I'm working on Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center 11gR1 PSU-3

The agent provisioning fails when I discover and manage the OS of a server
the server i want to deploy the agent to is a x4600, running Solaris 10 10/08 s10x_u6wos_07b X86

I tried to install the agent manually, but it still failed with this error:

Error 4 installing SUNWjavadb-common; see log file for details.
Error 4 installing SUNWjavadb-core; see log file for details.

This is from the error log:

Current administration does not allow new instances of a package
SUNWjavadb-common on zone zone14 to be created. However, the
installation service was unable to determine which package instance
to overwrite.
INSTANCE package SUNWjavadb-common on zones zone14

Installation of SUNWjavadb-common was suspended (interaction
required).
Error 4 installing SUNWjavadb-common.

Regards,

It seems that you have multiple instances of the javadb packages in zone14 and that you have to remove all of these before retrying the agent installation.

Hello,

I have a Windows 2008 R2 server that is Domain Controller, Hyper-V and SCVMM 2008.

My physical server that I want to virtualize is a Windows 2000 Advanced Server SP4.

When I try to install the agent locally (directly on the physical server), I see an error : ID 1920 in Event Viewer.
Error 1920. Service 'Virtual Machine Manager P2V Agent (VMMP2VAgent) failed to start. Verify That You Have Sufficient privileges to start system services.

I installed the agent locally with the domain administrator account.

Lai (My blog:- http://www.ms4u.info)

I updated my Virtual Center server to VC-2.0.2-61426. Now the VI client will not connect to one ESX server. There are four in my farm, two 3.0.2, patched thru Oct 8, and two 3.0.1 also patched thru Oct 8. Three of the servers load fine, the fourth (3.0.1) always fails with the errors:

Login failed due to a bad username or password

Failed to install the VirtualCenter Agent service

I am not using a bad username or password - and in fact can use the VI client to connec directly to the server. My whole purpose here was to upgrade the servers to ESX-3.0.2-61618, but now I have these orphaned VMs on a server that has no idea of VMotion.

Since installing the newer version, even version 2.0.2-50618 on a workstation no longer connects to this server.

Suggestions, help, face saving quick maneuvers?

thx

Bill

Ok great glad things got worked out

We install System Center Virtual Machine Manager on a Windows 2008 R2. When I try to add a host, it asks Security file path. Where is the Security file path?

After search in the internet, I think I may need to run VMM Agent. However, I don't see the VMM agent in the programs. If I try to install the VMM agent, it says Server which contains all agent components is already installed. It is true because I can see
teh VMM agent service is running, but where is the VMM agent. Or where I can run the VMM agent? Here is the screenshot:

Hi OMID Zamani,
All posts from friends dktoa,
Prajwal Desai, and Microsoft
hopeless guy, solve all
your problem. I will work with
the following:

- If your ornanização has the policy
to use local users who are allowed
Adminitrador place on the servers, you
can add it to the Agent installation.

- Another way is to create
a user eg OM_AAA and add it
into the Domain Admins group in Active
Directory.

- And finally, you can ask
the administrator to set the username and password
of the Domain Administrator at the time you
are installing the agents.
Thanks a lot

I am trying to replace SSL certificates on my ESX 3.5 host. I am able to generate the cert request using the following command

openssl req -new -key ./rui.key gt; request.csr

I then take the certificate request text and generate the new certificate from our CA. I copy the certificate to /ect/vmware/ssl and restart the mgmt-vmware service. When I try to add the host to my Virtual Center 2.5 server I get an error stating

"Failed to install the VirtualCenter Agent Service."

If I copy the old cert back it connects fine. Any ideas?

We are having this same issue.

I, too, have followed this, and other, documentation but with no success.

I am using the openssl 0.9.8g lite version installed on our VC Server (certificate generated for VC works fine).

Thanks.

Having a problem connecting 2.5.4 build-38650 host to VC 2.0.1:

When attempting to connect the host, I am first getting the error "login failed due to bad username or password" This error comes up before I even input the username or password. The it gets to 84% complete and fails with error "failed to install virtual center agent service"

You can try restarting the serverd and vpxa-vmware services and see if it helps.

I have just upgraded my VC from 2.01 to 2.5. I have successfully reconnected to 7 of 8 3.01 hosts. On one of them, I get "Failed to Install VirtualCenter Agent." Where on the host can I check for a little more specific error message? Any ideas?

Check to see if this folder exists on the host - /tmp/vmware-root. Also see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/4223326 and http://kb.vmware.com/kb/4478241.
