VMware Environment

To successfully setup the VMware vCenter® Converter™ Agent you should provide network connections via DNS between all members of the conversion process: domain controller, VMware vCenter® Converter™ Server, Recovery Manager Console and VMware vCenter® / VMware ESX® Server.

If Active Directory Virtual Lab is unable to connect to VMware vCenter® Converter™ Server with the following errors, you should enable communication between VMware PowerCLI and VMware vCenter Server® systems that use the TLSv1.1 or TLSv1.2 protocols. For more details, see Enabling the TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 protocols for PowerCLI (2137109).

  • "Unable to establish a secure communication channel between the converter server and the remote machine"

-OR-

  • "Could not access the VMware vCenter® Converter™ server. Details: The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send"

To install Converter Agent, use built-in Administrator account to connect to the source machine or disable User Access Control (UAC) on the source machine.

Support for VMware DRS Clusters

VMware DRS (Distributed Resource Scheduler) is a load balancing utility that assigns and moves computing workloads to available hardware resources in a virtualized environment. Active Directory Virtual Lab supports DRS clusters with Partly Automated or Fully Automated automation level.

  • Partly Automated

New virtual machine is placed on the best-suited host based on performance and resource criteria. If the DRS cluster becomes unbalanced, DRS will display recommendations for migration of the virtual machine.

  • Fully Automated

DRS places a virtual machine on the best-suited host, without prompting the user. If the DRS cluster becomes unbalanced, DRS will automatically migrate virtual machines.

Now in the ADVL console, you can specify a target host or a DRS cluster to create a virtual machine. For the DRS cluster, the target host will be selected automatically. The storage that is selected for the target virtual machine must be accessible from any host in the DRS cluster to successfully migrate the virtual machine.

The recommended network configuration for the DRS cluster is Distributed vSwitch connected to Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN). For more details, see the "network isolation at the infrastructure level" clause in Isolated virtual network and DNS.

If VLAN cannot be configured for the DRS cluster, you can use the host-only network configuration to ensure the network isolation. The host-only network configuration can be achieved by setting up virtual machine/host groups and affinity rules that allow you to disable the DRS cluster load balancing. To do so, create a host group that includes only one host and a virtual machine group that includes all virtual machines converted by Active Directory Virtual Lab. Then, you need to create a rule that assigns the virtual machine group to the host group using the affinity rule "Must run on hosts in group".

Recovery Manager for Active Directory provides an option to pause the lab creation process to perform all required actions before the virtual machine is turned on for the first time. To enable the pause option, set the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Quest\Recovery Manager for Active Directory\ADVL\PauseAfterCloning (DWORD) registry key to 1.

 

Deployment

By default, the Active Directory Virtual Lab is automatically installed when you install Recovery Manager for Active Directory. If necessary, you can exclude the Active Directory Virtual Lab from installation or uninstall it.

Important

To create virtual test environments, the Active Directory Virtual Lab requires third-party virtualization software. Make sure you have supported virtualization software installed and accessible to the Active Directory Virtual Lab. For a list of supported virtualization software, see the System Requirements section in the Release Notes.

To exclude Active Directory Virtual Lab from installation
  • Start the Recovery Manager for Active Directory Setup Wizard and use the Custom option to select the features you want to install.
To uninstall Active Directory Virtual Lab

  1. Open the list of installed programs (appwiz.cpl).

  2. In the list, select the Recovery Manager for Active Directory entry, and then click the Change button.

  3. Follow the steps in the Setup Wizard to change the installation so as to uninstall the Active Directory Virtual Lab feature.

 

User interface

The graphical user interface where you can manage the creation of a virtual test environment is called the Active Directory Virtual Lab console.

To start the Active Directory Virtual Lab console

From the Windows Server with Active Directory Virtual Lab installed

  1. Click Start.

  2. Point to All Programs | Quest| Recovery Manager for Active Directory.

  3. Click Active Directory Virtual Lab.
