Hi,
i have this configuration:
Primary Site:
n x ESXi
1 x vCenter Server (vCent1)
1 x SRM 4.1 and Oracle 11g (SRM1)
1 x NetApp Storage (NetApp1)
Secondary Site:
n x ESXi
1 x vCenter Server (vCent2)
1 x SRM 4.1 and Oracle 11g (SRM2)
1 x NetApp Storage (NetApp2)
NetApp storage is in replication with Snap Mirror, vCenter is the version 4.1 on both sites and all DB is Oracle 11g on Windows Server 2008 R2.
Problem #1:
I have installed SRM succesfully on both sites, but at the reboot of SRM machines the SRM Service not start automatically (but if I start it manually it's ok).
Problem #2:
If the SRM service is started, on the vSphere Client the Plugin is installed but I have this error "Unable to connect to Site Recovery Manager at ... Permission to perform this operation was danied"
VMWare's KB are all for:
- User autentication (but the user of vCenter Server have Administrator role on the vCenter Object),
- DSN Oracle 32bit (but was correctly created, test connection is ok, user is owner of db and have got session, create view, ecc permissions),
- Firewall Rules on 8095/8096/9007.
About Firewall Rules i have performed this tasks:
Primary Site:
| 80 | ok | SRM1 to | vCent2 |
| 80 | ok | SRM1 to | vCent1 |
| 443 | ok | SRM1 to | vCent2 |
| 8096 | Not respond | SRM1 to | vCent1 |
| 8095 | Not respond | vSphere Clients | vCent1 |
Secondary Site:
| 80 | ok | SRM2 to | vCent1 |
| 80 | ok | SRM2 to | vCent2 |
| 443 | ok | SRM2 to | vCent1 |
| 8096 | Not respond | SRM2 to | vCent2 |
| 8095 | Not respond | vSphere Clients | vCent1 |
If I use telnet for contact vCent1 from SRM1 it not responde, but are in the same vLAN and Windows Firewall is down on both machines. (Please Note: vCenter is physical machine on the same rack and vLAN of hypervisors)
I think that the cause of all is the comunication failure on 8095/8096 ports, but SRM and vCenters are on the same vLAN, why vCent1 and vCent2 not respond on 8095/8096/9007 ports? I should start some service?
Thank you and forgive my English is not perfect,
