Blocking task - add a virtual machine to VAPP

Which block task will begin when I add a virtual machine to a Palsy of a catlog. The "add, move or delete virtual machines of VAPP" seems to send a job blocking, but the xml of the blocking task does not include the vcloud:vm, only the vcloud:vapp

I want to send a notification when the new VM is complete provisioning and include details on the new virtual machine.

If you duplicated one of the workflow approval of all notifications, try to paste the following in the Get scaffolding Scriptable this workflow task... He will certainly need a cleaning according to your needs. It is a part of my test code for extraction of information of this type of operation...

var vcdHost = vApp.getHost();

//User info
var username = user.name;
var userDescription = user.description;
var userFullName = user.fullName;
var userEmailAddress = user.emailAddress;
var userTelephone = user.telephone;
var userIm = user.im;

var userDeployedVmQuota = user.deployedVmQuota;
if (userDeployedVmQuota == 0) userDeployedVmQuota = "Unlimited";
var userStoredVmQuota = user.storedVmQuota;
if (userStoredVmQuota == 0) userStoredVmQuota = "Unlimited";
var userRole = vcdHost.getEntityByReference(VclEntityType.ROLE, user.role).name;

System.sleep(5000);

if (blockingTask != null) {
    var task = vcdHost.getEntityByReference(VclEntityType.TASK, blockingTask.getTask());
    task.updateInternalState();
    var XMLstring = task.toXml();
    System.log("Task XML: \n"+XMLstring);

    // Now begin typical XML Processing for this set of action types:
    // These come from the "Add, Move or Delete Virtual Machines from vApp" blocking task being enabled
    // This workflow requires a single input - a string containing the XML to be processed.
    // It generates the following outputs:
    // operationType - this is a string that is either "create" "delete" or "move"
    // the other output is a Array/Properties object with the following possible properties:
    // vmName - string
    // hostName - string
    // osName - string
    // hwVersion - string
    // cpuCount - string

Unable to add the virtual machine to inventory

Unable to add the virtual machine to inventory

Hi assane, is vmware-cmd same available on ESXi 5.0 and later versions?

To the OP:

If you use 5.0 or later ESXi, vmware-cmd will not work. Alternatively, you can use:

Vim - cmd solo/registervm /vmfs/volumes/datastore_name/VM_directory/VM_name.vmx

That said, it could be several reasons of failure regarding the registration of the VM. Can put you up a screenshot of the error / symptom you see when it breaks down?

Can I add a virtual machine to a dvswitch without using vcentre?

Afternoon,

Until he does, can we use the command line to add a virtual machine to a dvswitch?
If so, can someone help me with this?

Unable to add the virtual machine network services

Hello:

I already read that warning Virtual PC 2007 is not compatible with win 7-64.
However, I read that it is "unofficially" possible launch.
OK, I installed it and it worked except networking.
Basically, I need to install the Virtual Machine Network Services.
I right click on my network card-> properties-> install-> services-> virtual machine network services (VPC2007 folder: where I can see VMNetSrv.inf)
Then says Windows: it is impossible to add the requested feature. The specified service has been marked for deletion.

The problem is that I get this error even on WinXP SP3, so I think that there is something else wrong.

And of course, Virtual PC 2007 available networks are only: no connection, Local, NAT. (Missing my physical adapter)

Thank you!!!

Hello
Add virtual machines to the inventory, I need to browse the data store, get him the virtual machine folder, click with the right button on the vmx file and add it to the inventory. If I have to do for 100 virtual machines, that it takes a lot of time.
Is there a way I can add multiple virtual computers to inventory collectively without doing it for each individual computer?

Add multiple virtual machines to a running script

Hi all
This script below works fine
$vmtest = get - vm "vmname" | Get-opinion
$vmConfigSpec = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec
$vmConfigSpec.changeTrackingEnabled = $true
$vmtest.reconfigVM ($vmConfigSpec)
How can I pass a list of virtual machines in a text file c:\vms.txt for this script?
Thank you
Alex

I guess your TXT file has a vmname on each line, so you might do something like this
```
$vmConfigSpec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec$vmConfigSpec.changeTrackingEnabled = $true

Get-Content c:\vms.txt | %{  $vmtest = Get-vm -Name $_  $vmtest.ExtensionData.ReconfigVM($vmConfigSpec)}

$devspec = VMUtils::get_vdisk_spec (vm => $entity_view,)
backingtype-online 'normal time ',.
diskMode-online $diskMode,
file name => $vm_disk_filename.
controllerKey-online $controllerKey,

You must specify the new data store name in the file name variable.

for example $vm_disk_filename = "[new_datastore] tstvm/tstvm.vmdk".

How to add a virtual machine?

I had a VM sent me a file .ova that I can not find a function to import and Virtual Appliances expects a .ovf how to make a .ova in my VMware ESXi?

You should be able to import .ova by using the Client vSphere in respect of the import of the model .ovf. If this isn't the case, you may need to use the ovftool before you import it.

Difference between tasks and events in a virtual machine

Hello
I wonder if someone can help me. I am trying to identify when and how the as many times a virtual machine has been migrated manually by a user. The task of the virtual machine in question pane indicates that a task 'Migrate virtual machine' took place 31, but I don't see any event corresponding to this day here. If I click on related events, it comes up indicating that a migration has occurred. If I look at the events tab, then I see that there is a 18-type event "Migrate virtual machine" However there is no corresponding task. There is no event HA and DRS is disabled.
My question is, that we should I think or is it a combination of the two? Only a manual migration by an administrator would be able to move the machine.
Thank you
Dan

In the web client, the tasks are empty, but events are there.

I have query to the database of vmware to bring to the event log and the get the DRS and migration events.

The query has been

Select EVENT_ID EVENT_TYPE, CREATE_TIME, username, VM_ID, VM_NAME, HOST_ID and HOST_NAME.

COMPUTERESOURCE_ID, COMPUTERESOURCE_TYPE, COMPUTERESOURCE_NAME from VPX_EVENT where the EVENT_TYPE like '% VmMigrated %' and VM_NAME as ''.

order of CREATE_TIME

Thanks for your help.

Cannot add to the inventory if virtual machine running on the other guests - iSCSI and VMFS5

5.5 ESXi hosts free standalone version
iSCSI mounts with multiple paths - relatively new unit with more modern hardware
CHAP not used
I'm running a few hosts in order to climb the same iSCSI data stores. The iSCSI LUN is visible and editable by all hosts. If Host1 is to map the iSCSI LUN (VMFS5) and a VM is powered, Host2 can add that VM to the inventory. It's possible with NFS iSCSI for a reason any. This is for a specific reason? Only when I turned off the virtual computer can I add it to both hosts. Other that just lock files are placed in the directory, I missed something related to the lock?
From now on, adding new esxi hosts does not allow me to add existing virtual machine, less than the voltage first. Once again, NFS does, iSCSI, this isn't. Any ideas?

It is not specific to ISCSI but rather to the use of VMFS. NFS has no awareness VM VMFS is and why it is not possible to do that with iSCSI / VMFS. There is a lock on the disk for each virtual machine of (race), and that's why the second host is not able to add this host to its inventory. With vSphere HA, this lock is released when a failover should occur.

Add virtual machines to a data store while changing the name?

I am trying to create a virtual machine in standby (or more, I do not have a final number) in a second datacenter. The goal is to have a copy of a group of virtual machines updated once a week as a relief.
I'll use our SAN replication to keep them up-to-date, so once a week, I stop all virtual machines in the data store, remove them from the inventory and remove the data store. Then on the side of SAN, I'll create a new copy of the data store, then add this data store to vSphere. We will do a few rounds of network to ensure we have not any change in the network that should be taken in the virtual machine.
The only changes to the virtual machine that needs to be done, are changing the vSwitch is logged in, that I understood, and to rename the virtual machine, either before being added, or when it is added. Since it is a copy of a virtual machine running, I'm not able to add all virtual machines to the new data store. I need either change the name of the virtual machine before being added, or when it is added. All I have to do to change the name is add something like - backup at the end of the name of the virtual machine.
Is it reasonably simple way to do this? It seems that he was promised that we could do that and now I need to find a way to make it work.
Thank you

You can search the data for the VMX store you want to register a script like the one you'll find in VMX Raiders revisited.

To change the name of the virtual machine, you will need to replace the line that contains the New - VM cmdlet with something like this
```
$newName = $VMXFile.DatastoreFullPath.split('/')[1].Split('.')[0]New-VM -VMFilePath $path -Name ($newName + "-backup") -VMHost $ESXHost -Location $VMFolder -RunAsync
```

Migration of virtual machines to vSphere 4.1 to vSphere 6.0

As the title eludes to, we are standing up a new physics 6.0 Server vCenter Server and need to migrate virtual machines of 4.1 6.0 guest hosts. I'd love to take the time to create a script that does the following; However, before heading down this path, I wanted to do a ping of the group to see if someone has done something like this before or have pointers to scripts that perform some of these actions already. Some background and concept:
- Running 4.1.
- A new physical Center of vCenter 6.0 will be deployed side-by-side with 4.1.
- The existing configuration of vSphere HA allows for 1-2 guests down without impact to the virtual machines.
- The two environment and will be Cisco N1KV, SAN access shared for the same data storages.
- A new vCenter will be lifted.
- A single host is identified and VMs evacuated to the remaining hosts.
- This host will be in maintenance mode, removed from the cluster and close.
- A clean install of ESXi 6 will be done and set up spec.
- N1KV will be deployed.
To digress on the details at the moment... Now markets PowerCLI desired. This idea is ad hoc and on the fly, so as I write this.
- identify all the virtual machines associated with a specific data store - will need to work with the local client to schedule downtime for virtual machines
- Stop the virtual machine
- Remove the VM of the vCenter 4.1 inventory
- to connect to vCenter 6.0
- Add the virtual machine to the vCenter 6.0 inventory (and once we have passed the first host in the new cluster, automatically place the virtual machine by using the DRS)
- Reconfigure the vmnic with the new Cisco 1000V dvs (will be the same name on both sides, but has a different ID)
- pull in the keys and the values to a CSV and advancedsetting set to harden
- Turn on the virtual machine
- Perhaps a test of ping for the NETWORK card to check connectivity
The order in which the steps are performed can be switched around, as long as the desired end result is the same: migration effectively virtual machines between two disparate solutions with single medium sharing as a data store. In which I realize will always be VMFS3. New data stores VMFS-5 is another task for another time.
Thank you for your time, suggestions, links, etc...
@LucD - hi.

These steps are quite possible with PowerCLI.

See the script after skeleton, he probably needs some adjustments to fit your environment and requirements

$dsName = "xyz".

$vm = get - VM - $dsName data store

Stop-VMGuest - VM $vm - confirm: $false

Remove-VM - $vm VM - confirm: $false

Disconnect-VIServer-Server vc41 - confirm: $false

$vc6 = Connect-VIServer-Server vc6

$newVM = $vm | New-VM - DiskPath $_. ExtensionData.Config.Files.VmPathName - confirm: $false

# Suppose a CSV file with

# Key, value

# key1, value1

# key2, value2

$advSettings = import-Csv - UseCulture advSettings.csv

{foreach ($obj in $newVM)

$advSettings | %{

Get-AdvancedSetting - $obj entity - name $_. Key |

Game-AdvancedSetting - value of $_. Value - confirm: $false

}

}

Start-VM - $newVM VM - confirm: $false

$newVM |

Select Name,

@{N = "Available"; E = {Test-Connection - ComputerName $_.} Guest.HostName - County 1 - Quiet}}

Create the new virtual machine using Java API vCloud

Hi guys,.
I am trying to create the new virtual machine in TIME, but I've stuck here. The API I'm using is vcloud-java-sdk - 1.0.jar.
Could you please show me a code snippet how to do this?
For now I do it like this:
RecomposeVAppParamsType recomposeVAppParamsType = new RecomposeVAppParamsType();
List the items < CompositionItemParamType > = recomposeVAppParamsType.getItem ();
ReferenceType vappTemplateVMRef = new ReferenceType();
// ??? seems that new reference to the new virtual machine should be here. But how to create this VM
CompositionItemParamType compositionItemParamType = new CompositionItemParamType();
compositionItemParamType.setSource (vappTemplateVMRef);
Items.Add (compositionItemParamType);
ReferenceType vAppRef is Vdc.getVdcByReference (vcloudClient, vdcRef) .getVappRefByName ("vApp_Websrv");.
Vapp.getVappByReference (vcloudClient, vAppRef) .recomposeVapp (recomposeVAppParamsType);
One day before I played with Web Services SDK, which is much easier to understand. I was able to create the vApp and VMs in vSphere. Is it possible to import machines virtual vSphere to vCloud? Should what API I use for this?
Thank you

Hello

You cannot add a new empty virtual machine in a paralytic.

Instead, you can add a virtual machine from an existing vapp, vapptemplate.

To import a vsphere vm to vcloud.

Import vsphere vm as VAPP in vcloud. VMWVimserver-> importVmAsVApp()

The importation of vsphere vm, as vAppTemplate, in vcloud. VMWVimserver-> importVmAsVAppTemplate()

See also the example of ImportVmAsvAppTemplate.java, which is part of the vcloudjavasdk group.

Kind regards

Rajesh Kamal.
