Copy files (vmx), how to add script?

Hello

Completely new in the VI Toolkit / Powershell but I need to automate this stuff for a project of MRS.

Is it possible that one can take a copy of a vmx file and rename it. (Will be stored in the same folder / store data but with a different name)

Assume cannot be so difficult, but it has not get this working again?

Any idea, some scriptlets

Thank you

Christof

OK, I understand.

To change permissions, you must use the plink tool.

This should do what you want

$vmName = 
$vm = Get-VM $vmName | Get-View
$logdir = $vm.Config.Files.LogDirectory
$logdir -match "\[(\w+)\]"
$dummy = $dsName = $matches[1]

$User = 
$Pswd = 
$Computer = (Get-View -Id $vm.Runtime.Host).Name
$plink = "\plink.exe"
$plinkoptions = " -v -batch -pw $Pswd"
$cmd1 = 'chmod 754 /vmfs/volumes/' + $dsName + '/' + $vmName + '/' + $vmName + '-COPY.vmx'

$remoteCommand = '"' + $cmd1 + '"'
$command = $plink + " " + $plinkoptions + " " + $User + "@" + $computer + " " + $remoteCommand

$msg = Invoke-Expression -command $command

Note that you need to configure sudo to work.

  • Hi all please how can add (script) to the attribute of object veiw in the ADF thanks fpr all

    User, tell us your version of jdev, please!

    Sorry to say, but your question makes no sense. An attribute must not and will not hold a creation script (a script ddl if you like). You can assign a sql script to an attribute such as ' select name from employee where employee_id = empid "where empid is another attribute of the object of the view.

    You can get the following from a sequence sequence number and assign it to an attribute using groovy as shown here https://tompeez.wordpress.com/2011/09/02/using-groovy-expression-to-set-a-primary-key-with-a-sequence-number/

  • How to add music to iTunes without copying the music files

    How to add music to iTunes without music copied to an iTunes Media folder or anywhere else?

    I read the answer is to go into the advanced settings and uncheck "Copy files to iTunes Media when adding to library". Which is excellent and this option is not checked, but iTunes keep copy of the music into an iTunes Media folder...

    Anything ripped CD, converted, downloaded from the iTunes Store or added via the automatically add to iTunes folder will eventually iTunes Media. If you add a folder of files stored outside the media folder and the option is disabled, then iTunes should not be generating copies in the media folder. Can you describe a specific example where you can see the new arrival before and after importation?

    As a backup to one side and the migration of an iTunes library is much easier if all the content is organized inside the iTunes Media folder, but this is no reason not to try and find out why things are not behave correctly for you now.

    Hi Katharina,

    What happens when you drag your tiara BROWSER or Windows Explorer data files in the data portal?  See all date/time values in a table in VIEW of this channel?  The problem may be that you do not have a use but which properly load your data files.  The example is designed to show you how to concatenate several files of data together, but assumes that you could provide / have your own use.  If you use work already, then look for these lines to the top of the VBScript and substituting the name of your use "CSV".  If your files have a file extension different "*.csv", then you must also change the line "FileExt '.

    FileExt  = ' CSV files, *.» CSV »  ' « *. DAT; *. CSV '.
    Use = "CSV" ' "' or 'SpecificDataPluginName '.

    When you try to start the database copied to the new server you will find that it must recover - because it was taken in hot backup mode.
    This is why you must copy the archivelogs that are generated from the first archivelog after the first "alter tablespace begin backup" to the first after the last archivelog "alter tablespace end backup.
    I see that you also include a script CREATE CONTROLFILE.
    You that would go to the cloned environment.
    Then you type the command RECOVER database using BACKUP CONTROLFILE until CANCEL to standardize the clone.
    You can, of course, use the same method to copy these archivelogs that you use to copy the files from database - tar, cpio, Ribbon, etc.

  • How to add programs to the start of the file using Vista

    How to add programs to the start of the file using Vista

    Hi Harry,.

    Oddly enough, you can actually do it in msconfig except if it is already there and simply not checked as opposed to not being do not at all (although you would think that they would understand this option).

    The easiest way is to add the program (or a shortcut to the program) in the folder all Menu Programs Startup.   Here is the procedure: http://www.ehow.com/how_5098465_add-startup-programs.html.  Remember, to do this, you must either a shortcut existing (perhaps on the desktop or elsewhere in the menu all programs) or you need to find the source file (probably somewhere in C:\Program Files depending on what you want to add) and either copy it and add it to the startup folder or right-click on it and create a shortcut to copy into the startup folder.  Once you reboot, this program starts during the initial commissioning process and you will now be able to control using msconfig.exe, if you wish.

    Another option is to do this by using the registry editor.  If you decide to try this, first create a restore AND system restoration point backup of the registry before you begin.  Here is the procedure: http://www.ehow.com/how_7304438_add-program-msconfig-regedit.html.  I recommend to use this ONLY if the previous procedure does not work for some reason any as long as that the procedure is simpler and safer.

    If you want a simpler way to manage and control startup programs, you can try it free WinPatrol http://www.winpatrol.com/download.html that change monitors for startup programs if you set it to run in real-time so that you know when to try new programs are added to your Start menu and, for the purposes of this question includes an Add button which opens a link to a window of Windows Explorer where you can browse the program you want to add, click open to select and then add it directly to the commissioning.  If you prefer it does not work all the time, you can simply uncheck the box which includes this program and it will work only when you choose to run (but at the start, will work as an indication otherwise or configured).  It will appear not in the start menu in all programs (Finally, WinPatrol is, but not programs, it adds to the start), but it will appear in WinPatrol (which also lets you manage what you want or not start with checkboxes as in msconfig) and sure in msconfig - but only after a reboot is complete the process of adding.

    I hope this helps.  Personally, I use WinPatrol myself and let it run in real time.  Since I do a lot of installations, it helped me often prevent the addition of a startup item I haven't really need and reduces how many times I actually need to check what is happening out there.

    If this answers your question without the need to repost in another forum, please mark it as an answer.  If this isn't the case, then of course you must republish as suggested above.

    Good luck!

    It is not much more left to do, really:

    1. create your custom - bitmap button class copy most of the project advanced user interface.

    2. create your personalized with background image - again, Manager copy most of "adding background... picture." "with all the changes that you deem necessary.  You can replace HorizontalFieldManager with VerticalFieldManager, for example, according to your needs. Also, if you've read this article, visit again and take a look at the note at the bottom - I just added a. It might not be relevant today, but may be useful later - I answered enough questions here on the forums, so people do not experience this problem.

    3 create an instance of your custom Manager to enlarge the image as the parameter - let's call him myBgMgr, for example. Add myBgMgr to your screen.

    4. Add the new BitmapButtonField (smallerImage,...) to myBgMgr.

    That's all!

  • How to add additional files in the native installer?

    I've been advised to post this question in this forum after being unable to get a resolution in the forums of the AIR:

    I have the extra text and XML files used as configuration files, I would like to package and install in the directory of the application with my AIR application.  I am creating a package install native in Flash Builder, and I can't understand how to include these additional files that will be installed.  Is there a way to do this in Flash Builder, or I have to use another method to achieve this?

    Here's what I've tried so far without success:

    http://forums.Adobe.com/thread/746709?TSTART=0

    It doesn't matter what I do when I click on:

    Export Release Build-> next-> next and access the content of AIR file screen, I never see additional files to include in the file of my AIR.

    (1) I tried to put files in the myapp\src folder.

    (2) I tried to put the files in the folder myapp\bin-debug.

    (3) I tried adding a-> new file in my project and associating it to a file in the myapp\src folder

    None of these things work.

    Without adding these additional files to the application of AIR, my project will be useless. How can I achieve this in Flash Builder?

    Thank you!

    Ah ok I see what the problem is now. The problem is with the way Eclipse (and thus Flash Builder) deal with files and workspaces. Eclipse maintains its own representation of the view of filesystem for files/projects in your workspace. If you add files manually out of Eclipse, he will not see me, you specify to refresh. Whenever I have sync Perforce files for example, I always select all the top-level work together in Eclipse and hit refresh.

    Now there is an option for refreshing, it is under preferences-> General-> workspace, the "Refersh automatically" check box. Control that will help you when you work out eclipse in source control systems etc.

    Rather than add files via the file system, you can also copy files from Windows/Mac file system and then paste them into the view Explorer of Package in Flash Builder, then it will know about them.

    Hope that helps!

  • How to add records to a file via the file adapter.

    Hi all
    How to add records to a file via the file adapter.

    I must read data from the database and need to add all the records in a file.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I think you have a while loop to hit the DB in your process (as you said you need to extract data from DB 10 times if 1000 rec is here)
    First sopy your DB O/P to a var
    and second time add to previous data. (Otherwise you can directly use Add to start instead of copy and add)
    When the loop ends, you can turn to the file adapter Var.

    Otherwise, you can configure yourFileadapter as it will be aapend current recordings for previous records.

    You can use 'Append = true' in your adapter wsdl file.
    It will add the previous records to existing records in the same file.
