In this Server I have Installed a Citrix XENSERVER 5.5, I created a Virtual Machine with Windows 2003. It Is Possible to install Command View EVA 9.1 in this VM???...

Re: Comman View EVA 9.1 in a Virtual Machine
AFAIK it's supported to install CV 9.2 into a VM and using NPIV to access the LUN0 of the EVA.

Re: Comman View EVA 9.1 in a Virtual Machine
It does not use NPIV - remember that NPIV *does not* give a VM a Fibre Channel adapter!
In the VMware vSphere Client you need to add a "SCSI device" and map it to an address, e.g. 0:1.

I did not see that question when I posted by previous response.
NPIV is short for "N_Port ID Virtualization". Normally a Fibre Channel port has one 64-bit World Wide Port Name (WWPN), uses it to login to a Fibre Channel switch and obtain one 24-bit Fibre Channel address (N_Port ID, FCID, PID, ... - the industry has given a number of names to it).
NPIV allows a port to present itself with multiply "identities" using multiple WWPNs and N_Port IDs.
One of its purposes it to give such an "identity" to a Virtual Machine so that its I/Os can be identified and managed using SAN tools.

Re: Comman View EVA 9.1 in a Virtual Machine
I think I can create a SCSI vdisk and mapping to a EVA LUN, do you think that the CVEVA 9.2 will work???...
In this case it is possible that NPIV will work???...

Re: Comman View EVA 9.1 in a Virtual Machine
Your EVA has a problem and your virtual machines can no longer run. You won't be able to use command view - bad situation, isn't it?
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
