Information About Virtual Machine Tracker

Guidelines and Limitations for VM Tracker

VM Tracker has the following guidelines and limitations:

  • VM Tracker supports up to four vCenter connections.

  • VM Tracker supports high availability and the fault tolerance features of vCenter.

  • VM Tracker supports up to 64 VMs per host.

  • VM Tracker supports up to 230 hosts across all vCenters.

  • VM Tracker supports up to 600 VLANs.

  • VM Tracker supports only 507 VLANs in Per VLAN Rapid Spanning Tree (PVRST) mode due to hardware limitations. To enable more than 507 VLANs, use Multiple Spanning Tree (MST).

  • VM Tracker supports ESXi 5.1 and ESXi 5.5.

  • The current version of VM Tracker supports only VMware orchestration. It does not support orchestration with other hypervisors.

  • Starting with Cisco NX-OS release 7.2(0)N1(1), Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is supported.

  • For all ports on which VM Tracker is enabled, you must not perform any Layer 2 or Layer 3 configuration that is related to switchports and VLANs. However, you can update the native VLAN.

  • VM Tracker does not support VLAN 4095.

  • You must connect the host directly to the Cisco Nexus device ports, including the FEX ports. Blade servers are not supported.

  • If you do not specify the virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) while configuring the remote IP address, the management VRF is used.

  • For vCenter version 5.1 and 5.5, the CDP information can contain a maximum of 32 characters for the name of the switch. If the name of the switch exceeds 32 characters, VM Tracker will not work.

Licensing Requirements for the Virtual Machine Tracker

No license is required for this feature.

Enabling Virtual Machine Tracker

By default, the VM Tracker feature is enabled on all interfaces.

Procedure
     Command or ActionPurpose
    Step 1switch# configure terminal  

    Enters global configuration mode.

     
    Step 2switch(config)# [no] feature vmtracker  

    Enables the VM Tracker feature on all interfaces.

    The no form of the command disables the VM Tracker feature on all interfaces.

     

    This example shows how to enable VM Tracker:

    switch# configure terminal
    switch(config)# feature vmtracker
    switch(config)#

    Creating a New Connection to vCenter

    Procedure
       Command or ActionPurpose
      Step 1switch# configure terminal  

      Enters global configuration mode.

       
      Step 2 switch(config)# [no] vmtracker connection connection-name
       

      Enters VM Tracker connection configuration mode for the connection name specified.

      The no form of the command disables the connection.

       
      Step 3switch(config-vmt-conn)# [no] remote {ip address ip_address | port port_number | vrf vrf_name}
       

      Configures remote IP parameters.

      The default value for port_number is 80. If vrf_name is not specified, the default value is management.

       
      Step 4switch(config-vmt-conn)# username username password password
       

      Verifies the username and password to connect to vCenter.

       
      Step 5switch(config-vmt-conn)# [no] connect
       

      Connects to vCenter.

      The no form of the command disconnects VM Tracker from vCenter.

       

      This example shows how to create a new connection to VMware vCenter:

      switch# configure terminal
      switch(config)# vmtracker connection conn1
      switch(config-vmt-conn)# remote ip address 20.1.1.1 port 80 vrf management
      switch(config-vmt-conn)# username user1 password abc1234
      switch(config-vmt-conn)# connect

      Synchronizing Information with VMware vCenter

      By default, VM Tracker tracks all asynchronous events from VMware vCenter and updates the switchport configuration immediately. Optionally, you can also configure a synchronizing mechanism that synchronizes all host, VM, and port group information automatically with VMware vCenter at a specified interval.

      Command

      Purpose

      [no] set interval find-new-host val

      Sets the interval, in seconds, for finding hosts that are newly connected to vCenter. The no form of the command disables the previously configured interval.

      The default duration is 3600 seconds.

      [no] set interval sync-full-info val

      Sets the interval, in seconds, for synchronizing all host, VM, and port group related information with vCenter. The no form of the command disables the previously configured interval.

      The default duration is 3600 seconds.

      vmtracker connection connection-name refresh

      Synchronizes all host, VM, and port group related information with vCenter immediately for the specified connection.

      This example shows how to set an interval for finding hosts that are newly connected to vCenter:

      switch(config-vmt-conn)# set interval find-new-host 300

      This example shows how to set an interval for synchronizing all host, VM, and port group information with vCenter:

      switch(config-vmt-conn)# set interval sync-full-info 120

      This example shows how to immediately synchronize all host, VM, and port group information with vCenter:

      switch(config-vmt-conn)# vmtracker connection conn1 refresh

      Verifying the Virtual Machine Tracker Configuration

      Use the following commands to display and verify VM Tracker configuration information:

      Command

      Purpose

      show running-config vmtracker [all]

      Displays the VM Tracker configuration.

      show vmtracker [connection conn_name] {{info [interface intf_id ]{summary | detail | host | vm | port-group}} | event-history}
      Displays the VM Tracker configuration based on the following:
      • Connection
      • Interface
      • Event history
      show vmtracker [connection conn_name] status

      Displays the IP address and connection status of the vCenter connection specified.

      show logging level vmtracker

      Displays the logging level of the syslog messages for VM Tracker.

      show system internal vmtracker info all

      Displays the complete configuration information of VM Tracker.

      Enabling Virtual Machine Tracker on Specific Interfaces

      When VM Tracker is enabled by using the [no] feature vmtracker command, it is enabled on all interfaces by default. You can optionally disable and enable it on specific interfaces by using the [no] vmtracker enable command.

      Procedure
         Command or ActionPurpose
        Step 1switch# configure terminal  

        Enters global configuration mode.

         
        Step 2switch(config)# interface type slot/port  

        Enters the interface configuration mode for the specified interface.

         
        Step 3switch(config-if)# [no] vmtracker enable  

        Enables the VM Tracker feature on the specified interface.

        The no form of the command disables the VM Tracker feature on the specified interface.

         

        This example shows how to enable VM Tracker on a specified interface:

        switch# configure terminal
        switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/1
        switch(config-if)# vmtracker enable

        Configuring Dynamic VLAN Creation

        Enabling Dynamic VLAN Creation

        Dynamic creation and deletion of VLANs globally is enabled by default. When dynamic VLAN creation is enabled, if a VM is moved from one host to another and the VLAN required for this VM does not exist on the switch, the required VLAN is automatically created on the switch. You can also disable this capability. However, if you disable dynamic VLAN creation, you must manually create all the required VLANs.

        Before You Begin

        Ensure that the VM Tracker feature is enabled.

        Procedure
           Command or ActionPurpose
          Step 1 switch# configure terminal
           

          Enters global configuration mode.

           
          Step 2switch(config)# vmtracker connection connection-name
           

          Enters VM Tracker connection configuration mode for the connection name specified.

           
          Step 3switch(config-vmt-conn)# [no] autovlan enable
           

          Enables dynamic VLAN creation and deletion.

          The no form of the command disables dynamic VLAN creation and deletion.

           

          This example shows how to enable dynamic VLAN creation:

          switch# configure terminal
          switch(config)# vmtracker connection conn1
          switch(config-vmt-conn)# autovlan enable

          Configuring an Allowed VLAN List

          By default, all VLANs can be configured dynamically on interfaces. You can also define a restricted list of such VLANs.

          Before You Begin

          Ensure that the VM Tracker feature is enabled.

          Procedure
             Command or ActionPurpose
            Step 1 switch# configure terminal
             

            Enters global configuration mode.

             
            Step 2switch(config)# vmtracker connection connection-name
             

            Enters VM Tracker connection configuration mode for the connection name specified.

             
            Step 3switch(config-vmt-conn)# allowed-vlans {allow-vlans | add add-vlans | except except-vlans | remove remove-vlans | all}
             

            Configures a list of VLANs that can be dynamically configured on interfaces.

             

            This example shows how to configure a list of allowed VLANs:

            switch# configure terminal
            switch(config)# vmtracker connection test
            switch(config-vmt-conn)# allowed-vlans 100-101
            

            Removing an Allowed VLAN List

            Procedure
               Command or ActionPurpose
              Step 1switch# configure terminal  

              Enters global configuration mode.

               
              Step 2switch(config)# vmtracker connection connection-name  

              Denotes the vSphere connection.

               
              Step 3switch(config-vmt-conn)# default allowed-vlans  

              Removes allowed VLANs.

               

              This example shows how to remove an allowed VLAN list:

              switch# configure terminal
              switch(config)# vmtracker connection test
              switch(config-vmt-conn)# default allowed-vlans
