Clearing DNS cache on vCenter Server Appliance

  Clearing DNS cache on vCenter Server Appliance 6.5/6.7 - Just Virtualise It (kanecharles.com) I came across a situation recently where I was building some nested ESXi hosts and had configured the incorrect IP address for their DNS record, only to realize this after attempting to add the host into Center:  By attempting to add the host, vCenter will query your DNS servers for the IP address associated with the FQDN you have supplied (assuming you did this method, not via IP address). If you have set the wrong IP on your DNS server for the above FQDN record, you have 2 options: Wait a short while for vCenter to clear the cache entry for this FQDN, thus allowing you to add the host with the correct IP from the DNS record Clear the DNS cache on your vCenter Server Appliance (vCSA) vCSA 6.5 upwards runs on Photon OS with dnsmasq acting as a local caching nameserver (thank you to Brandon for the comment to clarify). Enough rambling, so how do we do it? If you’re anything like...

We'll learn how to start, stop, and restart services in vCenter Server Appliance 6.5. The procedure is similar for a vCenter server installed on a Windows server, which I'll cover as well. Contents List services in a vCSA appliance Start and stop a service Stop and start all VMware vCSA services List all services via vSphere web client vCenter Server on Windows Server The VMware vCenter Server Appliance (vCSA) 6.5 is a fundamental building block of the modern vSphere environment. All the management features of a vSphere environment revolve around this product that is very easy to deploy and manage. Its principal functionality is embedded into a single location, a single virtual machine (VM). This platform now runs...

 how to step by step in detail install ssh on cachyos To install and enable SSH on CachyOS, follow these detailed steps: 1. Install OpenSSH: Open a terminal window. Use the pacman package manager to install the OpenSSH package: bash sudo pacman -S openssh Use code with caution. This command will download and install the necessary SSH server components.   2. Enable and Start the SSH Daemon (sshd): Start the sshd service (the SSH daemon): bash sudo systemctl start sshd Use code with caution. This command will launch the SSH server, making it available to accept incoming connections. Enable the sshd service to start automatically on boot: bash sudo systemctl enable sshd Use code with caution. This ensures that SSH will be available after each system restart.   3. (Optional) Configure the SSH Server: The SSH server's behavior is configured through the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file. Important : It's highly recommended to create a backup of the original configuration file befor...
