VCenter が6.0 U3hまたは6.5 U2c以上にUpgradeされており、且つESXiホストに対しCVE-2018-3646の対策(ESXi SCA Scheduler:ESXi サイドチャネル対応スケジューラ)が有効化されていない環境で発生します。. I’m going with option 3. To get us started we have to create a folder on one of our datastores, call is let’s say Syslog and underneath that create another folder with hostname of your ESXi host (always good to know which logs are which). In my example my host is SPN-ESX-04, datastore is called VMwareESXiNFSL.
The vSphere Client is a Windows program that you can use to configure the host and to operate its virtual machines. You can download vSphere Client from any host.
Verify that you have the URL of the host, which is the IP address or host name.
The system must have an Internet connection.
Procedure
- From a Windows machine, open a Web browser.
- Enter the URL or IP address for the vCenter Server or host.For example, http://exampleserver.example.com or http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.
- Click Download vSphere Client under Getting Started.
- Click Save to download the vSphere Client installer.
What to do next
Install the vSphere Client.
After upgrading my Apple Mac Mini to ESXi 5.5 I noticed the following warning message being displayed after joining my ESXi host to my vCenter Server: Archos 80 titanium driver.
'Quick stats on mini is not up-to-date'
I have seen this warning message in the past and it usually goes away within a few minutes of connecting to a vCenter Server. However, this time it did not go away and as you can see from the screenshot, I have had my ESXi host up for 4 days now and the message is still there. Drivers digital audio mb.
UPDATE (9/30) - This looks to be a known issue in vSphere 5.5 and there is a permanent fix which has been documented in the following VMware KB 2061008. Restarting the management service will not prevent the warning message from coming again, please refer to the KB for the solution.
I do not know about you, but I like to have a clean environment and I get annoyed when I see warning/error messages in the UI. From what I can tell, vCenter Server was able to collect the 'quick stats' from the ESXi host but perhaps there was a communication problem at some point or just a glitch?
In any case, is is pretty easy to fix the problem, you just need to restart the management service on the ESXi host and this will force a refresh of the stats. You have three ways of doing this:
Esx.problem.hyperthreading.unmitigated Message
- Restart management service using DCUI connecting to your ESXi console
- Restart management service using DCUI via command-line
- Restart management service using command-line script
Option 1 is pretty straight forward and both Option 2 and 3 can be performed on the command-line via an SSH session to your ESXi host if you have enabled SSH.
Option 2 - To launch the DCUI, just type 'dcui' on the command-line and you will be able to interact with the DCUI as you normally would from the console and restart the management service:
Option 3 - To restart just using the command-line, you can run the following command to restrat the management service:
/sbin/services.sh restart
