Challenges, working with the Blues in vco vcac plugin

Hello

Work with the latest plugin VCAC release VCO (5.2 and 5.5 respectively), I intending me to put a simple set of wrapper script element before the workflow 'Configure a virtual machine for an action plan', such that (to start) entries and group plan Director supply could be sent in the form of simple name strings, rather than expecting to complex objects (as expected) to allow for easier consumption REST API (not through the layer of presentation btw, who used the inventory tree to search for and provide said interactive input objects).  I couldn't find any provided action let me do the recoveries of simple object by name and decided to start by entering a complete picture of the objects and don't string correspondent against her...

This proved be simple enough for the provision of groups and works very well - namely due to the provided method "host.findAllChildProvisioningGroups ()", you were using it directly or through the action "getAvailableProvisioningGroups".

Blue are becoming another story.  I found the 'getBlueprints' action, which appears to be operated by the presentation layer when the workflow is run interactively, holding an object provisioningGroup in entry (which I had already recovered above).  It did not work when used in a script element, however.  After reviewing the support action, I found that it relied on a property of the object group configuration, rather than a method (it is not a useful method available).  Adding that debugging confirmed that the table was never fill when referenced (group.virtualMachineTemplates).  I don't know if it's broken or if I should wait only it works through presentation, or if I was just incorrect use - but I started looking for alternatives.

I have looked around in the browser of the API and other samples, including the set of extensibility and reviewed all the activities planned, but they always seem to wait for the entry of VCAC:Blueprint type.  I found getBlueprintsForProperty and it is close to what I need, if it is running too slow when you pull a list of close-up (nearly one second per object).  I don't know linqpad can empty all the plans into VCAC (via ODATA) much faster.

In the end, I'm looking for a way to get easily all plans for a commissioning Group (or even a host if it is fast enough), returned in an array of type VCAC:Blueprint can I browse - or even more simply, to retrieve the object model directly based on a property displayName known and gets my object.  I am aware of the VCAC entity the full mechanism added in the last plugin, but concerned that I'll be back will not match the input type... It seems that some properties do not match the type VCO and others do not part of an entity to plan at all.  Frankly I was hoping to not who become familiar with the innards of the existing API VCAC and wouldn't not rather recreate a plan object of its parts of the requested Party.

If you're still with me, thank you! - and, ideas?  I'd like to hear missing me something simple here...

OK spent more time on it with begins to implement a piece of javascript to directly get an object in the inventory of its entity vCAC. Instead of an iteration all objects of the same type, it is the object directly by ID.

var entityKeyProperties = entity.entityKey;
var entityIdKey = entityKeyProperties.keys[0];
var entityIdValue = entityKeyProperties.get(entityIdKey);
System.log("Found key " + entityIdKey + " : " + entityIdValue);

switch(entity.entitySetName) {

    case "VirtualMachines" :
        inventoryObject = Server.findForType("vCAC:VirtualMachine", entity.hostId + "/" + entityIdValue);
        break;

    case "VirtualMachineTemplates" :
        inventoryObject = Server.findForType("vCAC:BluePrint", entity.hostId + "/" + entityIdValue);
        break;

    default : throw "No inventory object for entity type " + entity.entitySetName;
}

I worked with the old version of the plug-in and then decided to test with the last version of the plugin (5.2) and made a great discovery.

Engineering simplified our life with the implementation of entity.getInventoryObject ();

So basically:

var entity = vCACinventoryObject.getEntity(); // convert an inventory object to an entity
inventoryObject = entity.getInventoryObject(); // convert an entity to an inventory object

So in your case the code to quickly find a blueprint by name would be:

if (vcacHost == null) return null;
var model = "ManagementModelEntities.svc";
var entitySetName = "VirtualMachineTemplates";

var property = new Properties();
property.put("VirtualMachineTemplateName",name);

var entities = vCACEntityManager.readModelEntitiesByCustomFilter(vcacHost.id, model, entitySetName, property, null);

var blueprints = new Array();
for each (var entity in entities) {
    blueprints.push(entity.getInventoryObject());
}

return blueprints;

  • Does not work with the version 6.2.0 plugin version 1.0.2 Build 2986609 NSX NSX

    Hi all

    Alas, we have improved the NSX to 6.2.0 build 2986609, then update the NSX Orchestrator plugin to version 1.0.2 but all operations returns "Version NSX unsupported.

    When will be ready for the new version of the NSX plugin?

    Thank you.

    D.

    Well, I found the solution for my self.

    When you upgrade the plugin NSX, it does not update the configured host of the NSX. Thus, you must remove endpoint NSX and re-create it.

    Hope this helps others.

  • Is Re: Satellite A500-17 X - it allowed to do work with the charger plugged?

    Is it OK to play games / work with the charger plugged into my laptop all the time or by doing this will cause the battery becoming weaker?

    I remember having a laptop earlier and 3 hours battery lasted only 30 minutes.
    This will happen to my Toshiba A500 computer laptop X 17 too if I had to plug my charger all the time?

    Should I get out the battery if you don't use?

    > Is it OK to play games / work with the charger plugged into my laptop all the time or by doing this will cause the battery becoming weaker?
    Yes you can do it and you should not be afraid that this will affect the battery!
    After that the battery has been recharged, the grief process stops and the battery is not looping
    My cell phone is always on the AC adapter at home and the battery is still OK and it work properly!

  • Satellite A210 - 10 c only works with the 800 Mhz instead of 1.6 Ghz

    Hello

    I have a very big problem. One day, I look in Vista on my resource monitor and see that the max freuquence is only 50%.

    So first of all I think that is no problem because the assets 'energy savings' energy recorded.
    I have a Satellite A210 - 10 c portable.

    So I switch to maximum power and perform a test of prime95. But hell, the max freuquence has not changed. I also installed everest and cpu z, but all programs show the same to me:

    My laptop only works with the 800 Mhz instead of 1.6 Ghz!

    I'm looking for drivers for the AMD processor, but you need not for Vista. Update all the drivers of Toshiba and Programms and BIOS (in fact, it is the 1.9).

    Nothing helps.

    As a last test, I reinstalled Vista, but also did not help.

    And now I'm at a loss what to do.

    I hope someone can help me.

    Good bye...

    Have you installed the Vista using the recovery CD or the original CD of Microsoft Vista?

    I ask because the restore CD contains all drivers for Toshiba and yellow exclamation marks should not be apparently in Device Manager.

    If you used the original CD of Vista I think that you have not installed the Package of Intel Robson.

    I found the package of Robson on the Toshiba driver-> Satellite P200 area page.

    Maybe you should check this.

    Your comments would be appreciated

  • Satellite C55: microphone does not work with the connected headphones

    Hey everybody,

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C55. I've seen other forums posted on this topic, but none of the solutions seem to work for me. I tried to uninstall the drivers and restart the computer, and configure the microphone when the headphones are connected.

    My microphone (installed on the laptop) works completely fine... until I have plug in my headphones. He stops working, but I can still hear the music or friends through my headphones. They have a regular pair of Sony headphones, not headphones, so they do not have a microphone on them or anything. My microphone has never worked with the headphones plugged in, and the computer is only a few months old. I would really appreciate a clear solution, thank you for taking the time to look!

    What Satellite C55 do you have exactly?

    This laptop does support that one socket for headset and microphone, or you have two different plugs: one for mic and one for headphones?

    Usually, you can check the playback (speakers, headphones) devices and recording devices (microphone and external microphone) in the control panel → sound → playback (or recording) tab

    If you need to check if the internal MIC is set as device by default when the headphones are connected.

    In the event that the laptop uses the Realtek audio driver
    Reach
    Control Panel → Manager Realtek HD Audio → select Mic tab → click Device avancΘs
    Then select option button separate all entries in the independent input devices.
    Click OK
    Speakers of tray right click (Volume) then the recorders (confirm the microphone is active) → select microphone → click on set default (default device)
    Then close
