• Help with Host Profiles and necessary PowerCLI

  Hello

  I have 2 questions about using PowerCLI for edit vSphere Host Profiles:

  (1) how can I clone a host profile, using PowerCLI?

  (2) how can I change the host profiles, using PowerCLI, update these settings?
  (a) name of host - DNS configuration - configuration networking
  (b) setting up authentication - setup of Active Directory - domain name

  
  Thank you!

  Kind regards
  Harold

  (1) there, in the current version no cmldets to clone a hostprofile.

  But you can use the API. Something like that

  $hostProfileName = "MyProfile" $prof = Get-VMHostProfile -Name $hostProfileName 
  
  $profMgr = Get-View HostProfileManager
  $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.HostProfileCompleteConfigSpec $spec.Annotation = $prof.ExtensionData.Config.Annotation$spec.ApplyProfile = $prof.ExtensionData.Config.ApplyProfile$spec.CustomComplyProfile = $prof.ExtensionData.Config.CustomComplyProfile$spec.DisabledExpressionList = $prof.ExtensionData.Config.DisabledExpressionList$spec.Enabled = $prof.ExtensionData.Config.Enabled$spec.Name = $prof.ExtensionData.Config.Name + " - COPY"
  $profMgr.CreateProfile($spec)
  

  (2) changing the settings in hostprofiles can be done, but the ILO requires a thorough knowledge of the workings of

  See for example my change of the root password in host and profiles of the host .

• the host profiles and CVS?

  We have hosted 5300/5400 severa intels in a cluster of evc.  We did a profile of the host of one of these servers.  Then we added a new server intel 5600 to VC, but not in the evc cluster. We then applied the restarted host profile. We were surprised to see that vmware allowed us to vmotion virtual machine to a host in the evc cluster to 5600 host without complaining.

  My question is the hsot profiles modify the host server to match the settings of evc also?

  VCA is not included in the profile of the host. VCA is actually CPUID masking at the virtual machine level. If it is not a surprise that you can VMotion VM of EVC cluster to more recent host.

• The profile and desktop files disappeared after uninstalling the HP Deskjet software

  I uninstalled the HP Deskjet F4500-series software, and now my files and folders disappeared. The only thing showing on my desk is in the trash. Something horrible just happened? If so, how is that possible?

  Hey Reba Jo

  try a restore of the system before this happened

  http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm

  If necessary do the restore of the system in safe mode

  Windows Vista

  Using the F8 method:

  1. Restart your computer.
  2. When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap theF8 key repeatedly until you are presented with the Boot Options Advanced Windows Vista.
  3. Select the Safe Mode option with the arrow keys.
  4. Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.
  5. To start Windows, you'll be a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and Vista goes into safe mode.
  6. Do whatever tasks you need and when you are done, reboot to return to normal mode.

• Display the host logs and (PAC) files to tail-F

  I chose (CAP) F to view a log file and am stuck to try to get the newspaper.  At the bottom of the screen, it says: waiting for data... (interruption to abort)  So what key or keys are used to make the demolition?

  Thank you!

  CTRL + C sends a break and should cause "inferior to" stop waiting for new data.

• profiles and framework files

  does anyone know how to hide the folder (folder) of frame of a profile field?

  Add a global rule and set this as a side effect:
  <$fParentGUID_display:isExcluded="1"$>

  Or you can also add it to the URL: fParentGUID_display:isExcluded = 1

• join to the domain host seems to break my auto deploy?

  This is the second time that this has happened.  Add a host computer to a domain, update my profile host to host to reference, and then everything starts to go wrong.  It is said the HA agent is disabled and after reboot etc he fails to apply the profile of the host to host more.  I had to start all over again with my data center last time... this time I got lucky.  My other host was always counted with the join the domain, I changed my host of reference to the host who does not join the domain, updated the reference host profile and reapplied while the profile for the host that I joined the domain, restarted and all is well again.  Was wondering if anyone else had this kind of problem?

  Never, I came across this problem. But it seems that there is something wrong with your original host profile.

• windows easy transfer and pulled the bookmarks and the profile of the old xp system password, why doesn't Firefox recognize the profile and view bookmarks, etc.?

  I FIND THE TRANSFERRED FROM THE OLD XP COMPUTER PROFILE.
  I'M NOT COMPUTER LITERATE, SO I RELATE THAT THE FILE DOES NOT HAVE DATA IN THE FAVORITES AND PASSWORDS.
  I DID A FEW WEEKS AGO AND PICKED UP FIREFOX AND DISPLAY INFORMATION WHEN HE WANTED TO!
  DELL HAD TO DO A RELOAD OF OPERATING SOFTWARE AND I START ALL OVER AGAIN.

  HOW THE DATA GET PICKED UP AND LOADED IN FIREFOX TO USE.
  WENT FROM XP TO WINDOWS 7 SP1

  G ' Day TYRELL.

  Please follow the documented procedure to the recovery of data from an old profile and answer here if you have problems at any stage. Specifically the Favorites are stored in places.sqlite and password are stored in key3db and signons.sqlite (the two files are necessary).

  Please mind that Firefox generates random names for the profile directories: d not copy the directories of any profile, as their name will not work on another computer. Instead, copy the contentof the profile folder.

• Removed password and group file/etc - please help!

  Hello

  It is a good.

  In an attempt to get the NFS shares on a Windows Server, I managed to move one of my/etc of ESX host 'password' and 'group' files to a different location. I guess me to copy instead of move.

  Now, I can not log on the server ESX 4.1 via ssh, winscp or root or console. When you try to connect to the root account it says invalid password.

  Everything can avoid me having to rebuild the host from scratch? I don't have either no image from the server backup.

  Thanks in advance!

  With the help of the ESXi installed on USB works fine. Boot in ESXi. Use the vSphere client to connect to the new ESXi installation. ESXi should have picked up the ESX datastore, and you'll see the ESX VM console. It will be called esxconsole-blabla. Create a new virtual machine and do not create a vmdk. Select use an existing one and point the vmdk for esxconsole. Get a Linux rescue disc or most distributions can boot into rescue mode. You have to force the new virtual machine to boot from the rescue cd. Once you're started in rescue mode, you can mount the vmdk from ESX console. Add your files and restart without the USB.

• Home Profile Answer File status still says "incomplete".

  I have a 6.0U1a of 3 nested nodes vSphere environment, and set up a profile of the host to do all my compatible hosts. I've updated the answer file and it is complete, but the State never changes to show 'Complete' and is still showing 'Incomplete', regardless of how many times I try to update and save.  Is this a bug?  Help, please...

  

  Yes, I was recreating the profile of the host from scratch and to ensure all fields have been filled correctly.  Now, everything is good, thx.

  These methods should help for Windows 7 or Vista.

  References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

  You can try to fix it with Safe Mode - repeatedly press F8 as you bootup. THE ADMIN
  Safe Mode account has no default password (so unless someone changed
  the password should be available).

  Some programs such as the Google Updater (if you've added the Google toolbar,
  Chrome or Google Earth) has been known to cause this problem.

• All IT gurus out there who know Firefox... have lost the passwords saved when FF created a new profile and delete old files key3.dbf and logins.json profile.

  All IT gurus out there who know Firefox... have lost the passwords saved when FF created a new profile and delete old files key3.dbf and logins.json profile. Any ideas, anyone?

  So it's not a logins.json file?

  I see a signons3.txt file and a file signons.sqlite older, if you can try to see if you can import passwords stored in this file.

  You can force Firefox to re-import the passwords in the file signons.sqlite and regenerate the file logins.json with the following steps:

  • reset the signon.importedFromSqlite pref on the topic: config page by default via the context menu
  • Delete the logins.json file in the closed Firefox with Firefox profile folder

  When you restart Firefox, then you should have the pref signon.importedFromSqlite with the value set to true.
  You have passwords that are imported in the password manager, unless there were errors or signons.sqlite signons3.txt.

  You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
  You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

• How read the Archive.msf and .sbd files stored on the backup media without restoring the current profile?

  I have stored vast e-mail Archives of files on backup media to free hard drive memory. How to read Archive.sbd and Archive.msf selected files without restoring them to the current profile? Can I create a new profile and restore it temporarily?

  Tbirds mail-container has a pair of files

  (1) - name of the container (with no extension) here are all the emails one after the other.
  (2) container - name.msf one type of index, if deleted itwill be restored

  If there is any subcontainers, there is also a container - name.sbd which is a directory (map)
  In this directory there are new pairs or even directories.

  Files without extension is the mbox files. As they exist even when there is simply a directory .sbd and not emails, you need only point to this mbox (empty) file to load the tree entire (folder - map-) use the ImportExportTools add-on.

• I created a new profile and copied the files from my old computer inside firefox. How do the new profile, just delete the old one?

  I am running windows 7, I had to recover my files on an external hard drive when my old computer crashed. I created a new profile as described in the Web site of firefox and copied all the files into it. I just need to know how to use the new profile when I open firefox, just delete the old profile? Or do I have to reinstall firefox.

  If you no longer have need or intention to use this older profile, then you can use the Profile Manager to delete this profile and delete the files.
