Hi,
We have an issue with performance tests not being executed.
vCenter 7.0.1 with 8 hosts on 7.0.1 as well. 18 datastores on iSER connectivity.
Config validation is successful but it immediately states "Test Completed". However, no test was actually run.
I have not found any errors in the logs.

We initially started with 72 VMs on the 18 datastores, but scaled down to 1 VM on 1 host and 1 datastore. But same result unfortunately.

Any ideas?

found a workaround? can see the same.

Yeah, see the above post from Chen Wei on Oct. 23, regarding non-vSAN testers. It worked as a charm :)

Can you send us the log files (/opt/automation/logs/*) to vsanperformance@vmware.com?

Sorry forgot - running HCIBench 2.5.0

Anyone seen this error on OVF deployment failure (vSphere 7)?

Provider method implementation threw unexpected exception: com.vmware.vapi.std.errors.OperationNotFound: OperationNotFound (com.vmware.vapi.std.errors.operation_not_found) => {
messages = [LocalizableMessage (com.vmware.vapi.std.localizable_message) => {
id = vapi.method.input.invalid.interface,
defaultMessage = Cannot find service 'com.vmware.appliance.networking.no_proxy'.,
args = [com.vmware.appliance.networking.no_proxy],
params = <null>,
localized = <null>
}],
data = <null>,
errorType = OPERATION_NOT_FOUND
}

It turns out this was caused by an issue in vCenter (services not running).

Hi Team

I am having following error
checking existing VMs
Deployement Started
[ERROR] IP Assignment or Accessible Failed
Testing failed, For details plase Find Logs in /opt/autamation/logs

PING 172.18.3.26 (172.18.3.26) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 172.18.2.1 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable

Can you please help

ESXI-MGMT and VSAN are configured as LAG interfaces, so i need to make any change for same.

did you specify the same portgroup for guest VMs which assigned to HCIBench "VM Network"? if you did, did you pass pre-validation? thinking your underlying vlan has connectivity issue.

This error is usually a good indicator there is an underlying network problem. HCIBench does not require anything other than reliable network(s) with unrestricted communication between the hosts. Using LAG shouldn't be a problem and this would be completely transparent to HCIBench. However, LAGs introduce additional complexity where a mis-configuration could result in intermittent problems.

- Are all the test VM unreachable, or only a subset? If it's a subset, is there a pattern (host, rack, ...)?
- Create a pair of VM to test connectivity between every pair of hosts on the portrgoups used by HCIBench. If may be necessary to use different IP and MAC addressed depending on the LAG hash algorithm.

Am I missing something .. This is the first run on a newly setup ESXi,Vcenter ,HCIbench controller

sorry we are busy with vmworld, did not get chance to reply back sooner.

you have a single esxi cluster?
could you
ssh into hcibench and run
rvc "USERNAME:PASSWORD"@VCIP to enter rvc, then
cd /VC/DATACENTER/computers/CLUSTER
and run
what 'hosts/*/vms/hci-tvm-*'
paste me the result?
