alert filtering for the Virtual Machine in emailFilter.xml
I'm trying to filter for alerts from the Virtual Machine to the user interface in the emailFilter.xml.
Ideally I would like to filter by other measures such as the ready % CPU or the CPU usage or some other metrics, but in the meantime just try to isolate the Virtual Machine.
< condition >
< condition type = "ResourceKind" > VMware adapter: Virtual Machine < / condition >
< / conditions >
I tried a few different combinations of the above, but no luck. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?
Thank you!
not quite sure I understand what you try to do
Edit:
But I have the kind of resource would be 'VirtualMachine' (without a space), and there is no tag 'typical'.
Look at him ' consolidated-alert - definitions.xml' for example, formatting must be exactly as specified.
I read it twice
Look here - https://www.vmware.com/pdf/vcops-57-custom-ui-admin-guide.pdf page 82.
resource type must be VMWARE:VirtualMachine
I'm not sure that you will be able to filter by attribute however (such as the CPU usage)

Hi all, we have just run a test DR failover of a couple of virtual machines in our protected our failover site and all site swung perfectly, two virtual machines came online and all applications work well. However when we cam to r-eprotect machines virtual, we get some errors.
One of the virtual machines seems to have lived the reprotect end process, it is still running, but has not moved to 89% for some time. The virtual machine has a couple of grand (a little less than 2 TB) VMDK. slow progress is just a consequence of the large VMDK?
More worrisome is the virtual machine which don't reprotect at all. It generates an error whenever I click on the "Restore" button (error: impossible to reverse the replication for the Virtual Machine.) A snapshot operation can not be performed).
Does anyone have any ideas as to the cause?Thanks in advance for any help.

Finally got to the bottom of this. The issue was that reprotect SRM work was trying to dispel any snapshots that were taken on the computer object virtual destination in VMWare, but could not clean snapshots.
The reason why snapshots would not consolidate was because it was snapshots of temporary VEEAM who in fact any snapshot file listed in the VSAN data store. So when we looked through the browser data store, no snapshot file existed in the virtual computers folder. Trying a manual removal also failed.
To fix this, we created a snapshot of the virtual machine in the original data center (note is the engine to the bottom of the virtual machine), this effect was to get rid of the 'fade' snapshot that was visible in the Snapshot Manager that VEEAM backup had left behind. Once this had disappeared, the reprotect back to DCA worked perfectly.

Hello gentlemen,
I can not only save this virtual machine with Backup Exec 2014 for a long time.
They are there was no snapshot in snapshot Manager.
Could you help me?
Hello
I found the solution.
I disabled the JOB BE general relativity.
and the host where the virtual machine belong was not the right time. No Ntp server has been configured.
I did and now there works.
I think that the problem can come from this.

List of the files in the data store for the virtual machine
Hello
How to list the files of data store for the virtual machine? I can't find reference to the command.
Thank you
If you have installed vCLI and vSphere SDK for Perl, you have extra utilities on top of what is there with the vCLI, take a look at this list: http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/viperltoolkit/viperl40/doc/vsperl_util_index.html
A script that can help with the list of files to store data for a given virtual machine is dsbrowse.pl
Here is an example:
[vi-admin@scofield ~]$ /usr/lib/vmware-vcli/apps/host/dsbrowse.pl --server himalaya.primp-industries.com --username root --name dlgCore-iSCSI.test Information about datastore : 'dlgCore-iSCSI.test' --------------------------- Summary Name : dlgCore-iSCSI.test Location : /vmfs/volumes/4a26f505-02dfd8a4-6867-003048d9586a File system : VMFS Maximum Capacity : 15.75 GB Available space : 11.654296875 GB Hosts associated with this datastore. himalaya.primp-industries.com Virtual machines on this datastore.

How can I change the looks of Access Infrastructure Web location for the virtual machine files?
My default is set to MACHINES C:\VIRTUAL. But I want to change it to turn to an external drive connected with an eSata cable. Can I do this?
Hello
Add just like a new data store.
Login to your web access, select your host (not the virtual machines) in the left menu.
You should see a link on the right side with "Add data store", give it a name of store and add the directory.
Now, you can add a virtual machine to this place.
Good luck!

Metric of availability for the virtual machine
Hi all
I know that stands metric Uptime to know for how long the virtual machine worked without a reboot, but I want to understand what is the best value of this metric?
If I put the time in a dashboard, when is red, yellow and green?
Thank you.
Availability is not defined in a range or hundreds.
What exactly you're trying to find availability? Want to know how long the machine is for? It's a number that rises and sinks to zero when you restart. There is no transition between different values such as CPU utilization or memory.

Customization of the comments for the virtual machines deployed from model has stopped working
Hi all
(Environment: vCenter and ESXi 10 5.1 hosts running Build #3070626)
We have a model 2012R2 and a file specification of customization that allows us to deploy the VMs 2012R2 server. It worked well for a while. After the Christmas break, it seems more work correctly and we havn't knowingly changed anything to cause this. We have fixed our ESXi hosts Build #3070626 October 6, but have deployed VMs of model since, without problem.
We have all staged for the VM in advance (IE AD entry of objects and DNS). And then powered the deployed virtual computer, sysprep runs, but does not seem to apply settings in the customization file (IE rename the virtual computer, set the Admin password, join the domain etc.). If feed us the cycle of the VM, sysprep is running again, but even once, does nothing.
I have attached the contents of my file guestcust.log of a computer deployed virtual (see below), but I do not see the clues about the problem. I thought initially the error on the first line was important, until I've found it is also present on the virtual machines that have been successfully deployed from this template in the past, so it's maybe a Kipper.
Does anyone have advice for troubleshooting this?
TIA
Mark

I received this delicate task, and I can understand not just how to replace all parts.
I need to create a script that will be smartly decided what data store to deploy a virtual computer. We do not want to deploy in a data store that has the most space, we want to deploy to the data store that has the least space but can still account for the space for the (vm + 5%) and still leave 50 GB free on the lun after the move.
Thus, for example, if the virtual machine is 40 GB, we want the script to select the data store that has a close to 90 GB available without being under.
So my thought for this approach is:
- Create the query to get all the relevant LUNS. This excludes all the LUNS with the 'local' name in it and excludes all LUN owners (who have a slightly different naming convention then our general shared storage LUNS)
- This piece, which I partially understood
- Get-datastore. WHERE-object {($_.)} Name: corresponds to "PAR0 [1-4] _ [edp] * disk *")- and ($_.) "." Name - notmatch 'local')}
- Now, I need to get all of their total size and free space. Perhaps export this list to a CSV, however if I have to.
- Create a variable that contains: the size of the total virtual machine to the virtual machine that is deployed before its deployment.
- Deduct vm size against each data store size and pull in some way that that also close to 50 GB free on the data store and still facilitates the deployment of the vm.
- This piece, which I partially understood
I have a few other scripts, I scrounged on the internet that I tried to restore... but I just don't calm not having all the pieces...
- Get-Datastore. Where-Object {$_.} ParentFolder-match 'Internal'} ' | Select-Object - property data center, FreeSpaceMB, CapacityMB name, ' | Tri-objet-property FreeSpaceMB
- Select-Object Name,@{n="CapacityGB";e={[math]::round (($_.)) {{(CapacityMB/1024))}}, @{n = "FreeSpaceGB"; e = {[math]: round (($_.))}} {{(FreeSpaceMB/1024))}}, @{n = "FreeSpacePercent"; e = {[math]: round (($_.))}} FreeSpaceMB / $_. {{(CapacityMB*100))}} | Sort-Object FreeSpaceGB
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
-Knotz
Try something like this
# Get all data warehouses
$ds = get-Datastore. Where-Object {($_.)} Name: corresponds to "PAR0 [1-4] _ [edp] * disk *")- and ($_.) "." Name - notmatch 'local')} |
Select-Object Name,
@{n = "CapacityGB"; e = {[math]: round (($_.))}} {{(CapacityMB/1024))}}.
@{n = "FreeSpaceGB"; e = {[math]: round (($_.))}} {{(FreeSpaceMB/1024))}}.
@{n = "FreeSpacePercent"; e = {[math]: round (($_.))}} FreeSpaceMB / $_. {{(CapacityMB*100))}}
{foreach ($vm in Get - VM)
# Find possible candidates
$candidates = $ds | where {($_.)} FreeSpaceGB - $vm. (UsedSpaceGB-50) - gt 0}
# Find the best candidate
$target = $candidates | Tri-objet-property FreeSpaceGB-descending | Select - 1 first
Write-Output "VM $($vm.). Name) can go to $($target.) (Name) ".
}
- Create the query to get all the relevant LUNS. This excludes all the LUNS with the 'local' name in it and excludes all LUN owners (who have a slightly different naming convention then our general shared storage LUNS)

VMX and newspapers for the Virtual Machine
Hi guys
I had a virtual machine that is running but view vcenter is inaccessible
take a look at the data store that I see the Virtual Machine lack .vmx file and saves the files, so I already schedule maintenance for my client windows, but I just want to be sure about:
-Stop VM
-Remove the inventory
-create a new virtual machine and add the existing virtual drive
-Power on VM, everything should be good
Basically follow this KB
Or should I be worried about the consistency of VMDK?
Thank you very much
> Or should I be worried about the consistency of VMDK?
Less consistency, but more info on missing hard of header/descriptor files! It seems that someone tried to delete files of the virtual machine from the store data, but because of the locks on files that only some files have been deleted. According to the used backup application, you may be able to recover the missing files in the backup. If not, you can for example follow VMware KB: Re-create a missing virtual machine disk descriptor file, or create a new virtual machine in a laboratory environment (with the same disc size, configuration and the name) and allows to download the .vmx and hard descriptor WinSCP example files. If you have enough disk space in the lab, creating thin configured virtual disks and then change the file descriptor (remove ddb.thinProvisioned = '1')

Hi guys,.
I just wanted to check, once the virtual machines are migrated from ESX 2.5, 2.5 Vcenter to ESX 4.1, Vcenter 4.1 of the NFS datastore on the iSCSI data store.
Do I have to make changes to the vm settings?
To use the features to enhance available with ESX 4.1 what I need to change the virtual disk to logical Bus to LSI logic? What is recommended or is not serious?
It will be very useful for me to know if there is any need for changes to be made other than on the virtual machine upgrade vmware tools.
Thank you
You try to run ESX 2.5 VM on ESX4.1, if that's the case then ESX 2.5 VM are not supported on ESX 4.1

Disable the Internet connection for the virtual machine.
Is it possible to disable the internet connection to the virtual machine from Windows XP with on the neutralization of him on my Mac? I just want to connect to the internet if/when updates are required. Any other time.
I run Windows XP Pro SP1 on VMware Fusion v. 2.0.1
You have a virtual NETWORK adapter, Fusion UI calls it just a network adapter (which, due to a bad design, choice flowing from the settings box, but it's another criticism for another time...) This screenshot shows a disconnected virtual NIC:

Cannot specify a directory for the Virtual Machine
I'm new to ESXi naked with me. I added some records and then to browse the data store and I added the folders in there to specify the different VM..., I have a XP Win7 folder folder, etc. When I go to create a new Virtual Machine gives me only the choice to select a data store to store the HARD drive and not the folder structure I created in the data store. Now I can delete the virtual machine to inventory, return to 'Browse the data store' and move the files, and then add the VMX file in the inventory, but it just seems like a pain. Am I missing something? Really can not be complicated to arrange your virtual machines, it can?
Yes, you cannot specify a folder when you create a virtual computer to a data store. I guess that he has not considered to organize things at this level and honestly. Organization is really in the 'models and virtual computers '.

How to disable auto-start for the virtual machine at the start of merger?
Hi all
I use Fusion 2.0.4 to run different OSs and have 4 different virtual machines that are installed. But whenever I start the merger, regardless of the previous state when I stopped him, he starts a specific virtual machine. How to avoid this? I want to start just merge and then choose which machine to start.
TIA.
Hello
Welcome to the VMware Forums!
In the virtual machine library, there is a star in the list of your virtual machines that you can click and she acts as a toggle to start the virtual machine on the opening of Fusion.
It is somewhat a weird UI design choice, don't know me either until someone reminded last week.
