Assign a static IP address in linux VM during the generation.

Hello

I'm new to PowerCLI and out to see how it works.

I have about 20 mV to be deplyed model and must set up IP/mask of network/gateway on each virtual machine, they are all on rhel 5.

I have the script for vm deployment, but do not configure the IP addresses.

SE connect-VIServer VI - Server
$vmlist = import-CSV C:\saal.csv
{foreach ($item in $vmlist)
$vmname = $item.vmname
$data = $item.datastore
$Randomhost = get-Cluster hopub1 | Get-VMHost | get-random
New-VM-name $vmname - model linux_64bit - $Randomhost VMHost - store of data $data location Elm
}

could someone help me please.

Thanks in advance,

Govinda.

The first example looks like this

SE connect-VIServer VI - Server
$vmlist = import-CSV C:\saal.csv
{foreach ($item in $vmlist)
$vmname = $item.vmname
$data = $item.datastore
$Randomhost = get-Cluster hopub1 | Get-VMHost | get-random
New-VM-name $vmname - model linux_64bit - $Randomhost VMHost - store of data $data location Elm
sleep 300
Get - VM $vmname | Get-VMGuestNetworkInterface | Game-VMGuestNetworkInterface - Ip 192.168.1.1 - static IPPolicy - GuestUser pswd MyAccount - GuestPassword
}

Note the 'sleep' command, after the New - VM, new comments will be cloned and restart the guest operating system to run the sysprep utility.

It is difficult to determine when that ends, where the command of sleep. The term can be shorter or longer, depending on your environment.

The other option is a little easy, but you must create a specification of customization of the operating system in advance.

SE connect-VIServer VI - Server
$vmlist = import-CSV C:\saal.csv
{foreach ($item in $vmlist)
$vmname = $item.vmname
$ipAddr = $item.ipaddress
$data = $item.datastore
$Randomhost = get-Cluster hopub1 | Get-VMHost | get-random
$tempCust = get-OSCustomizationSpec-name MyCustSpec | `
Get-OSCustomizationNicMapping | `
Game-OSCustomizationNicMapping - IpAddress $ipAddr - IpMode UseStaticIp '
-255.255.255.0 - DefaultGateway 192.168.1.254 subnet mask
New-VM-name $vmname - model linux_64bit - OSCustomizationSpec $tempCust - VMHost $Randomhost'
-Store data $data location Elm
}

The script creates a temporary copy of the specification and changes the settings of the intellectual property.

The new client is created with this specification of customization of the operating system.

Note that I have assumed that you will store the IP address in the CSV file.

  • Assign a static IP address via DHCP based on the Mac address of the virtual machine

    Hi all

    It is especially a feature request, as I'm sure that it is not currently possible to do what I want to do...

    I would like to be able to assign static IP addresses to VM without having to manually configure the network settings of the virtual machine directly. I want to be able to do it from the DHCP settings in the virtual network Editor.

    Most of the routers DHCP allow this. They give an IP address through DHCP based on the MAC address of the client. This means that the customer is concerned that he receives a regular IP DHCP address, but it is never change.

    DHCP is the default option for all OS this makes things much easier to manage, as IP addresses is assigned in the same way, in one place for all DHCP clients, regardless of the client operating system, and without having to manually keep track of which the IP is assigned to which customers etc..

    Also AFAIK at least for Ubuntu, you cannot assign a static IP address without having to also statically assign to the DNS server. It is only the IP address I need to be static, so I prefer not to have to worry about manually assign the DNS server.

    I can just kind of fudge making the really long DHCP lease duration, but the maximum is 99 days only, so finally addresses are going to change, that would mean a whole bunch of reconfiguration for VM services, etc..

    Does anyone know if the workstation 9 has this ability? I am currently on version 8, but I would probably upgrade this function only if she can do it.

    If there is no way to do what I want to directly through the virtual network Editor, can anyone recommend a way to do this, perhaps using Guest only network and then, by running a kind of services to the 3rd party NAT and DHCP on the host?

    Thank you

    There is no GUI option to get what you are looking for, but you can do it manually. Please take a look at Re: assign a static IP to guest with network adapter NAT Virt? where I posted an example.

  • Is there a way to specify the static IP address for deployment EGGS in the ovftool command?

    Hello

    I'm trying to deploy EGGS using ovftool. I see the option - network and - net available for the selection of the network by name, although I wasn't able to find a way to assign a static IP address in the ovftool command itself. Something like - ip0 = 10.10.10.10. Is there a way we can do that? User interface when we deploy an OVA, we have available to provide IP address, gateway, DNS and network mask.

    Thank you

    Hello, vPupil-

    If the ovf/eggs is created to have definable properties, as an IP of the machine, you can use the "-prop ' parameter to ovftool.exe.

    By literature ( http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/ovf/ovf20/ovftool_201_userguide.pdf), is the syntax to set a property:

    --prop:

    It is near the bottom of page 24, as well as an example.

    To see if the ovf/eggs that you are using has configurable options, you can use ovftool.exe in mode "probe" (page 25).  Just issue the command with only one source, no target, as such:

    > ovftool.exe myAppliance.ovf
    

    This should generate the results of the probe, which should list all configurable properties, including their 'key '.  This key is what you use with the "-prop" parameter.  In the example of probe on pages 25-26, the FVO has two properties, 'db - ip' and 'ws - ip ".  Then you should be able to specify values for these properties by adding the following to your ovftool order:

    ... --prop:db-ip=10.10.10.10 --prop:ws-ip=10.10.10.11 ...
    

    How does do for you?

  • assignment range static mac addresses

    Anyone know or knows where I can find what the mac address range is responsible for functions static mac end user for virtual machines?  There is a specific, cited in the 4.x documentation Beach, but the docs 5.x just say do not walk on the beaches of use reserved for vCenter Server, host network adapters physical, virtual cards, but says not what is Beach, reserved or allowed is, so I don't know what to avoid.  I opened a support ticket and asked the same question and I was told there is no specific void range defined for static assignment, and I have to look in my environment to see what was automatically generated for what could not be attributed.  Of course, this does not solve the potential problem of an address that I choose to be automatically generated by vcenter for a future new virtual machine.

    Also, does anyone know what virtual machine operations can cause the mac to change address?  I'm trying to determine whether it is necessary to assign a static address to a virtual machine that has a license associated with it, so I need to know what would be the probability of this change.  Support could not answer this question.

    Thanks to all in advance.

  • All-in-one j6480 using linux, problems during the update of the kernel

    I have a platform of linux opensuse 11.0 (printer was working fine before the update) and updated the linux kernel and lost the connection to a printer, is the hpj6480 all-in-one printer, then updated to hplip 3.9.2

    using auto-install in the terminal, installed latest driver hplip 3.9.2, by checking installed software packages poster old version 2.8.4 printer hplip currently works as a USB direct connect but not wireless

    other than the obvious question how do I solve this problem... What is the plan for the installation of the printer basic logic (IE... direct connect USB - wireless - cable) or install also completely wireless?  ... I should completely uninstall the printer and system drivers and re - install as a new system... And are there associated lib files that it removed the old driver of 2.8 and 2.10?

    It turns out that the hplip should be reinstalled... but which has also compounded the problem was that the firewall should be removed to complete installation... Thank you for your help

  • Static IP address assignment to a device? (An XBox)

    I'm trying to set up my XBox One to broadcast remote but I am completely ignorant when it comes to networking and rely the economy on the default settings. There seem to be three main parts to this process described here:

    - Port forwarding (which was explained by DexterJB. (Thank you!)

    -Allocating an address static IP to the device (This step)

    - and implementation of dynamic DNS

    I was wondering if someone would be willing to walk me through step of assigning a static IP address to a device, which in this case is my XBox One.

    I really wanted to know that for a while for other devices, but do not know if it is a thing of router or a computer thing. I'd appreciate any help.

    Hi @varxtis,

    You are welcome!

    Instead of setting a static IP address for your XBOX, you can make a reservation address so that the XBOX will have a compatible IP for port forwarding you have done. You can refer to the link below for the steps on how to do it.

  • static IP address assignment to TiVo on BEFSR41 router

    Hello

    I'm trying to put in place a couple of TiVo cable already on my home network so I can 'see' on my Mac using the TiVo Express of Toast Titanium function and copy the TiVo on my Mac programs.   TiVo technical support suggested that the problem is that my Mac IP address is 198.162.1.100 (assigned automatically) and for some reason some of my TiVo is on 198.162.0.2 et.0.3.  They suggested that I have manually assign a static IP address for the for put them in 'sync' with my Mac address - that is to say, something in the range 198.152.1.xxx of TiVo.

    I was able to assign a static IP address of 198.162.1.109 to the head of the TiVo (and my Mac is still not see it), but I received an error message when I tried to assign 198.162.1.110 to the other TiVo.   Technical support suggested I check with you on assignment of the IP address via the router.  Can you tell me if this is possible and if so, how?

    Thank you!

    If the TiVo is Gets an IP 192.168.0.2 or similar when using dynamic/DHCP/Auto IP addresses means the TiVo is connected to a different router or get an IP address from another DHCP server.

    1. Please check your wiring. Your modem should connect to the internet, the port of the BEF everything is connected to the BEF. If the modem has additional LAN ports, a modem/router combo device. Do not use additional ports on the modem/router combo.

    2. If wiring is OK, as previously indicated another reason for a 192.168.0.2 automatic address IP sharing a computer inside your network that has been configured for an internet connection. With internet connection sharing you can share an internet connection through this computer. To do this, the computer will assign 192.168.0. * IP addresses on its side LAN. Please check your computers if there is one that has internet connection sharing enabled.

  • Static IP address of WiFi requires the DNS server

    I was able to confirm this on two separate MacBook Pro (various models) the two Yosemite running 10.11.4.

    After assigning a static IP address to the wireless network interface, the MacBook ping to a address beyond the gateway by default unless there is also a DNS server on the wireless interface. I wouldn't need a public IP address ping DNS server.

    For example:

    This method works.

    But it does not work:

    At least I have change the DNS like this:

    Then it starts working again.

    I tried to initiate a capture of packets and the MacBook is not even send ping on the wireless interface requests unless there is a static DNS server assigned.

    Can anyone other confirm/deny this behavior for me?

    Thank you

    Rob

    What exactly are you trying to do?

    You try to assign a Mac with a LAN IP address? If so, do it in the router by selecting an IP address on the local network to use with the Mac Machine (MAC address). This assumes that your router is your DHCP server. Otherwise, you need a DNS server that is running on your local network to be able to distribute IP of DHCP addresses.

  • LaserJet CP3525x: CP3525x a static IP address

    I want to set a static IP address for a USB connected CP3525x that would be shared through a router in a homegroup. I already put the address in the Control Panel, but when I print the configuration pages, the IP address shows 0.0.0.0. If I do the ARP - a command, my printer does not show either. What should I do wrong or misunderstanding?

    Hello

    0.0.0.0 means yoru pritner is not connected to the network yoru.

    A static IP address applies only to connect the pritner with a network connection to a router (wireless or LAN), USB connection on a print server (aka). a USB port on a router) don't offer any direct IP to the printer, but use the router as a bridge and the IP of the router itself should be used.

    I suggest ontacting router yout service provider or check its documentation and check how you set up the print server pritner thorugh, but usually through the interface of the router, or using the address of the router with any specific prefix.

    By connecting the pritner to your router with a network connection, you can connect with an Ethernet cable for yoru rotuer, not a USB cable. then your printer will be assigned with an IP address and it can be fixed on the network / Jetdirect menu of the printer.

  • Configuration of the devices on the same subnet to have a static IP address

    Hello. First of all, I'm new here, so Hello to everyone. I'm pretty much a newbie on everything about routers and I would like an answer to a problem that has been bothering me for a while.

    I have a Linksys WAG120N Wireless - N ADSL2 + Modem Router. The firmware version is V1.00.12.

    I run a Windows machine that is attached to the router which has a certain subnet address. On this same machine, I run a Virtual Machine on Linux, which has its own address, 192.168.1.102.

    I noticed that whenever I have shut down the computer and then reactivate them later, they gain another address, which makes it annoying for me to communicate with each other (by, for example, try to load a Web page hosted on the physical machine virtual computer) without knowing the real address, which, as I said earlier, seems to change every time.

    I would like to know if there is a way (with my model of router) to configure so that address subnet of these two machines remains the same, regardless of whether or not they have been stopped and restarted.

    Is this possible? If Yes, could you please tell me where to find this option in the control panel?

    Have you set the DNS server? You must configure at least one DNS server. Configure as DNS server 192.168.1.1 on your computer.

    Otherwise, with DHCP enabled, open a command prompt window and type "ipconfig/all". Copy the full output in your next post.

    Then configure the static IP address, check if you have the internet, otherwise, run "ipconfig/all" again and also after the full release. Which should show the problem.

  • Static IP address for device

    Hello, I'm having one of my devices always get the same internal IP address. I have an IP camera that I installed with port forwarding. I think I found where to put in it, but is not 100% clear that I configured it correctly. I have an E900 wireless router.

    The homepage of my router, I went into Setup - basic--> button DHCP reservation Configuration. Then, I found my camera in the upper area (select Clients of the DHCP tables) and checked the box next to it and press the button "add customer". Now I see my IP camera (as well as the IP I want he assigned to and it's MAC access in the section titled 'Customers already booked'.)

    So, I through to the procedure properly to have my IP camera always get the same IP address?

    Thank you.

    Yes, you have certainly made the right choice.  In addition to the addition of your camera to the list of dhcp reservation, another option is to assign a static IP address and settings of your camera.
