Best Practices and Solutions


1. Lenovo Custom images are not supported on IBM systems.
• All Lenovo custom Images include Lenovo providers which only support Lenovo FW/UEFI
on Lenovo systems. If installed on IBM hardware, the system could crash.

2. If during VMware ESXi installation you receive a “failuresbb” error, configure the UEFI the
settings to move the MM Config Base Memory windows to 3G: System Settings → Devices and
I/O ports → PCI 64-Bit Resource Allocation and Disabled System Settings → Devices and I/O
ports → MM Config Base memory window : Change to 3G

https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/tkb/articleprintpage/tkb-id/sx01_eg@tkb/article-id/9

3. VMware vSphere prior to ESXi 6.5 does not support 512e and 4K Native drives. ESXi 6.5
supports 512e, but not 4K. See http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2091600

4. For best practices for performance tuning of latency sensitive workloads in vSphere VMs,
refer to:

http://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/techpaper/VMW-Tuning-Latency-Sensitive-
Workloads.pdf#sthash.zkmNuXPp.dpuf

5. The Lenovo Custom Image 7.0U3 and 6.7U3 built May 2022 or later does not support
older Emulex HBAs and CNAs. For a complete list, refer to
https://datacentersupport.lenovo.com/us/en/solutions/ht513983

Performance Enhancements

To allow for more space within the VMware bootbank in the Lenovo Customized image, the IHV CIM
providers have been removed. You may choose to add the providers that are specific to your platform, or
all of them if desired. If you plan to use NSX and or vSAN, please choose only the IHV CIM providers that
are required for your system. The following are the providers that have been removed:

Note: You can determine which CIM providers you are using by the device driver that is loaded:

When is the Vendor CIM Provider Needed?


If you use Bootable Media Creator (BoMC) from Lenovo XClarity Essentials (OneCli), or Lenovo xClarity
Administrator to perform firmware updates, then IHV CIM providers are not required.

If you use USXPi from the Lenovo ToolsCenter Suite, Lenovo XClarity Essentials (OneCli), or Lenovo
xClarity Integrator for VMware vCenter:

• Users will have limited capabilities using Lenovo ASU, DSA for configuration, firmware updates, and
inventory for I/O options with VMware ESXi with the image provided.
• The use of ToolsCenter Suite CLI for firmware update for I/O options thru VMware ESXi is not
available.
• BOMC is an available option for firmware upgrades if the IHV CIM providers are not added back to
the ESXi Custom Image.
• If the individual vendor CIM providers needed for your environment are added back to the ESXi
image, the tools mentioned above will work with the specific vendor provider added.

13
Lenovo ESXi Custom Image and VUM Guide

Identifying the CIM Providers

To determine which CIM providers you will need for your system:

Find the Host Bus adapter information

Run this command to obtain the driver type that the Host Bus Adapter is currently using:

# esxcfg-scsidevs -a

You will see output similar to the following:

vmhba0 mptspi link-n/a pscsi.vmhba1 (0:16.0) LSI Logic / Symbios Logic LSI Logic Parallel SCSI Controller.
This output is equal to the lsiprovider

Find the Network card information

Obtain a list of network interface cards and names.


Run this command to obtain the driver type that the Network card is currently using:

# esxcli network nic list

You will see output similar to:


Name PCI Driver Link Speed Duplex MAC Address

vmnic0 00:02:04.00 ixgbe Up 1000Mbps Full 01:23:45:67:89:AB vmnic1 00:02:05.00 igb Up 1000Mbps Full
01:23:45:67:78:AC

This is an Intel device. There is no provider for these devices.

Installation of CIM Providers

The providers can be located at the following url: Vendor CIM providers

To install Lenovo IHV provider, use one of these methods:


a. Install Lenovo IHV provider bundle using esxcli
b. Install the Lenovo IHV provider using Update Manager:

To install Lenovo IHV provider bundle using esxcli:


1. Identify and obtain Extract the contents of the Lenovo IHV provider bundle zip file.
2. Identify the Lenovo IHV provider *.vib file(s).
3. Log in to the ESXi host using the vSphere Client with administrator privileges, such as root.
4. Using the Datastore Browser, upload the Lenovo IHV provider * bundle zip file.vib file(s) to a
datastore in the ESXi host.

14
Lenovo ESXi Custom Image and VUM Guide

5. Enter the host into maintenance mode

6. Log in as root at the ESXi console by using SSH.

15
Lenovo ESXi Custom Image and VUM Guide

7. Copy the Lenovo IHV provider *.vib zip files to a datastore accessible by the ESXi host using this
command:
cp offline-bundle.zip /vmfs/volumes/datastore_name

8. Run the following command to install the drivers using the offline bundle: esxcli software vib install –v d

/path/IHV-provider_name.zip*.vib

Note: This command requires an absolute path. For example:

esxcli software vib install –v /vmfs/volumes/datastore_name/ IHV-provider_name.zipvib

Note: If this command fails, unzip the file and try running the same command. If hostd does not respond, try
using localcli instead of esxcli. For example:

localcli software vib install –v /vmfs/volumes/datastore_name/ IHV-provider_name.zipvib

9. Restart the ESXi host.


10. To confirm that the VIB is installed successfully, run this command:

esxcli software vib list | grep -i vib_name

11. Exit maintenance mode.

16
Lenovo ESXi Custom Image and VUM Guide

To install the Lenovo IHV provider using Update Manager:


1. Extract the contents of the Lenovo IHV provider bundle zip file.
2. Identify the Lenovo IHV provider *.vib file(s).
3. From vCenter Server, go to Home > Update Manager.
4. Click the Patch Repository tab.
5. Click the Import Patches link at the top right of the screen.

6. Select the required zip, then click Next

17
Lenovo ESXi Custom Image and VUM Guide

7. Click Finish. The Lenovo IHV provider is added to the patch repository.

8. Repeat the previous 3 steps if more than one bundle is needed.

9.If you have already created the baseline, (baseline with component value “Host Extension” is required,
check the value by select the Patch Repository tab). Choose required bundles and click “Add to Baselines”.

18
Lenovo ESXi Custom Image and VUM Guide

10. Choose the baseline, click OK.

19
Lenovo ESXi Custom Image and VUM Guide

11. If baseline isn’t available, select “Baselines and groups” tab, click “create” button upper Baselines

20
Lenovo ESXi Custom Image and VUM Guide

Create a Host Extension baseline, click Next.

12. Select the required patch to the new baseline. Click Next

13. Review the baseline, click Finish


21
Lenovo ESXi Custom Image and VUM Guide

We can begin to remediate the ESXi host after baseline is created. Click “compliance view” button to compliance
view

22
Lenovo ESXi Custom Image and VUM Guide

Choose Datacenter, Cluster or Host in the left tree based on the apply scope.

Click “attach" to choose the Baselines or groups. Select the baselines or groups, click “Attach”

23
Lenovo ESXi Custom Image and VUM Guide

Click Scan

Confirm Scan by clicking the scan button.

24
Lenovo ESXi Custom Image and VUM Guide

The scan result will show hosts compliance result with the baselines.

You can stage the host or remediate it immediately.


(Staging allows you to download patches and extensions from the Update Manager server to the ESXi
hosts without applying the patches and extensions immediately.)

For more information, see the Installing and Administering VMware vSphere Update Manager Guide. Note:
The Update Manager automatically restarts the ESXi host after the remediation is complete.

In order to make sure that all VMware functions work properly check the bootbank size. The
recommendation is that this remain under 80% and optimal performance would be 75%. If you find that
you are reaching 80% or above remove drivers that are not needed in your configuration.
