Skyline Health Diagnostics for vSphere Deployment script – Aktualizováno

Dostal jsem se k tomu, abych vyzkoušel Skyline Health Diagnostics for vSphere. Celkem notnou chvíli mi trvalo, než jsem se dostal do stavu, aby mi to chodilo. A vzhledem k tomu, že jsem neustále mazal a instaloval znovu, tak jsem se rozhodl to udělat trochu automatizovaně, abych nemusel toho průvodce neustále vypisovat.

Postup je jednoduchý. CMD script, ve kterém si nadefinujete proměnné a pak zavoláte OVFtool. Podobně již pro vRA zde

Script jen používá trochu jiné proměnné a parametry, protože jsou v OVA jinak definované.

Pro aktuální verzi 2.0.5 je ale trochu problém s deploymentem. V rámci Photon OS, které je v OVA vypršelo heslo root a proto konfigurace nedoběhne.

Řešení je následující:

přihlásit se do konzole s heslem „vmware„

změnit heslo root, k čemuž Vás přímo vyzve.

spustit následující 2 příkazy a udělat reboot

rm -rf /opt/vmware-shd
sh /etc/vmware/cap/cap-firstboot.sh

Postup i ZDE

Verze pro Skyline Health Diagnostics 2.5.0 (25.5.2021)

Chyba s heslem byla opravena. Změnil se název sítě v OVA a přibyla položka NTP serveru.

DŮLEŽITÉ: SHD je závislé na DNS, kolega Josef Zach právě řešil, proč mu SHD nefunguje a problém je VŽDY v DNS. Takže korektní forward i reverse záznamy.
