Rebuild Process

Open Source Infrastructure

The NAS VM should not require rebuilding, nor should the router. If either of these machines requires rebuild

then you should probably redeploy the entire lab kit.

Windows Servers

The DC VM should only require rebuilding to renew licensing. If you are using a 180 day trial license then it will

require rebuilding every 180 days. Rebuilding the DC VM simply requires a reboot that is interrupted at the

“Press and key to boot from the CD” stage. Rebuilding the DC VM will require the rest of the lab to be rebuilt.

The VC VM will be rebuilt more frequently, to change vCentre versions or simply to refresh the lab setup.

Rebuilding the VC VM simply requires a reboot that is interrupted at the “Press and key to boot from the CD”

stage.

If you rebuilt vCenter but not the ESXi servers then use the Script Menu option Add previously configured

hosts… to add the hosts back to the vCenter without reconfiguring them.

ESXi Hosts

The ESX servers can be rebuilt by choosing a build option from the PXE boot menu rather than letting the timer

expire.

If you are rebuilding the ESXi hosts and not vCenter then delete the cluster from the inventory before running

the AddHosts script. The script will skip creating datastores and the WinTemplate VM if they already exist,

WinTemplate will be added to the inventory as a VM or Template if it’s found in the location where the script

creates it.

Concurrent Rebuilds

If your Lab platform has sufficient resources it is possible to concurrently rebuild the ESXi VMs, potentially

while rebuilding the VC VM. The DC and NAS VMs must be built and operational for the other VMs to rebuild.

Usually disk and CPU are the limiting resource for rebuilds. An SSD to store the VMs on and a Quad Core CPU

will help here.
