• Create the virtual machine with the ISO mounted CDROM

  Community of hell!

  Working on the vmcreate.pl script to add the creation of CD-ROM with iso data store, I got stuck on the error

  ' Invalid device configuration: ' VirtualSCSIControllerOption.numSCSICdroms '.

  I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, or this option but may not understand how to deliver this.

  I created a cdrom as follows (below test I create any CDROM, no iso file to reduce the number of layers):

  my $ BPPRR m_backing_info = VirtualCdromRemotePassthroughBackingInfo->new)

  deviceName = > ' '.

  exclusive = > 0,

  );

  my $description = description->new(label = > 'CDROM', summary = > 'cdddrom');

  my $connectable = VirtualDeviceConnectInfo->new(allowGuestControl = > 1,)

  connected = > 0,

  startConnected = > 1,

  ( State = > inmates ' / ' );

  my $ BPPRR m = VirtualCdrom->new(backup = > $BPPRRm_backing_info,

  connectable = > $connectable,

  controllerKey = > 0,

  deviceInfo = > $description,

  key => 1,

  ( unitNumber = > 1 );

  VirtualDeviceConfigSpec->new(device = > $BPPRRm,

  operation = > VirtualDeviceConfigSpecOperation->new()'add'));

  Did anyone have working example to create the virtual machine with CDRom?

  If someone will find this useful I followed this route Re: vmreconfig.pl add the device CD/DVD fails if the virtual machine created with vmcreate.pl

  and also I found good examples of what I need to in VMUtil.pm in cmd vmsphere libraries.

  Hello

  This message appears usually when the JVM cannot allocate sufficient memory. It may be the consequence of the stage Builder set - Xmx1024m command line: this is currently followed by default TLD-4515 and will be fixed in the next few weeks.
  For the time being you can give a try on a system with more memory. Moreover, what is your current hardware configuration?

• Create the virtual machine by using the file PowerCLI and csv

  I know there is a lot of info out there on this and I think I have a working script prety good.  Much was borrowed from this thread, http://communities.vmware.com/thread/315193 many thanks to LucD.

  My code is as follows:

  # Deploy virtual machines from CSV file
  # Much borrowed from http://communities.VMware.com/thread/315193?start=15 & tstart = 0

  
  # CSV import file

  -Datastore $_. Data store - OSCustomizationSpec $_. Customization"
  -Confirm: $false - RunAsync
  ## .......
  }

  He's going to cross and clone the virtual machine, and looks like he's running of the OSCustomizaitonSpec then it bombards.  It cleans bad VM.  Recent tasks shows "failed virtual machine clone that a specified parapeter was not correct." hostname ".

  The problem is that I don't mean to set a hostname with the OSCustomixationSpec, I try only to IP address info.

  I'm runningn PowerCLI 5.0.1 build 581491

  My ESXi host is 5.0.0 build 914586

  My vCenter Server is Ver 5.0.0 build 623373

  I opened a new thread, because the age of the old thread.  Not sure if this is the best way to do things.

  A very simple and intuitive brake system :-)

  You can be more selective about the current jobs. For example, you can check if the name of the job shows that they are actually cloning jobs.

• How to create the virtual machine to a virtual machine existed file?

  I have two hard drives on my VMware host. There are virtual machines on a SATA drive, how do I list these files of virtual machines and copy one of them to create a new virtual machine (it can save a lot of my time!). I did this way on VMware server 2.0 because I can see what they were and where they were under Windows. But on vSphere, how can I do? Maybe you guys have other ways to do it?

  Thank you!

  George

  On vSphere, I suggest you use autonomous vConventer instead. It is quite simple and easy to use. Alternatively, you can copy or clone the virtual disk to the virtual machine via the Console (ESX) Service offline

• create the virtual machine from windows NT 4 server with adaptec raid 5

  I have an old Dell (1998) server running windows NT 4.0 sp6a.  He had a raid 5 configuration using the controller raid adaptec SCSI 2940.  2 discs failed who broke the raid set.  I had a disk recovery company to recover the data and they have scratched off readers and gave me a SATA with all volumes.  I found a procedure to create a virtual hard disk (.vhd) and then converted to a hard and used to create a virtual machine in VMware workstation 7.  When I turn on the virtual machine, it begins the process of starting windows, shows the boot menu, select normal or mode VGA, goes through the process of NTdetect, display processor and memory but then gives a BSOD with the message inaccessible_boot_device.

  I changed the hard to affect the buslogic ddb.adaptertype, but it gave me the same problem.

  is there a different driver that I need for an adaptec raid controller or if the typical SCSI drivers should work?  If the typical SCSI drivers should work, so my problem might be in my Boot.ini because it shows that he is supposed to start on the partition (4) and this sata drive may not have scores exactly as they were on the raid configuration.  I tried to mount the volumes not in read-only mode, but the partition that I need to change the boot.ini file is partition (2) what mapping VMware won't let me open mode not readonly.  whenever I have, select it and it opens the partition (1) mode not readonly.

  I know this sounds complicated then I hope I described with precision.

• Create the virtual machine with the type of controller SCSI LSI logic SAS with PowerCLi

  Hey guys,.

  IM the difficulty to create a virtual machine with the type of controller SCSI to "LSI Logic SAS". The cmdlet New - VM im struggling to find where to create the type of controller?

  If you create a virtual machine without specifying a disk it will create a 4 GB SCSI type thick (0:0) hard drive 1 with 0 Parrall default BusLogic SCSI controller.

  What im wanting to do is to create a disk hard which is thin Prov. and create SCSI LSI logic SAS controller is set to.

  New-VM -name VMSTORE23 -$vmhost $esxhost MemoryMB- 4096 NumCpu- 2 -NetworkName "Vlan 6 Machine Virtual Network" | Get-NetworkAdapter | Set-NetworkAdapter -Type Vmxnet3 -MacAddress '00:50:56:00:00:21' -confirm:$false

  I have recived of aid by some LucD who helped direct the value of the network card in the New - VM cmdlet as follows. But I'm not able to add a hose for hard disk also like:

  | Get-hard drive | Together-hard drive - Datastore $datastore - slim StorageFormat

  And I have no idea how change the type of SCSI conroller or create it with the correct configuration?

  Any help would be great,

  Thanks in advance

  Eddie

  Greetings, steddyeddie-

  You should be able to use Set - hard drive and SCSI controller Set cmdlets to set the storage format of your hard drive and the SCSI controller type, respectively.  You were close to on the part of game - hard drive .  Try something like:

  ## get the VM object $vmVMSTORE23 = Get-VM VMSTORE23 ## set the harddisk storageformat to thin$vmVMSTORE23 | Get-HardDisk | Set-HardDisk -StorageFormat Thin ## set the SCSI controller type$vmVMSTORE23 | Get-ScsiController | Set-ScsiController -Type VirtualLsiLogicSAS
  

  It could pack in to your existing order to keep it as a good word, but for readability.

• Create the virtual machine to the second virtual disk

  I use ESXi 4.0 and PowerCLI 4.0u1.  I have a virtual machine with two drives, disk-drive-1(1)(a) and 1 and.  On the first disc, I have my dev tools, where I create my virtual application and put it on the second drive.  Now, I want to create a virtual machine with only the second disc, disc-1(1)(a).  How can I go about it?

  There are new VAPP cmdlets in PowerC LI 4u1, but I'm not sure that they will allow you to do what you want.

  Otherwise have a look at VMware Studio 2

  To use $_. Name or $_. Name of the file depends on what you specify in the $hdName variable.

  I gave the label, such as "Disk 1" device, while you've probably used the path of the real as data store "[datastore] folder1/vm.vmdk.

• create the virtual machine of the existing structure

  I received the file of the VM I import into my ESXi 5.5 Vcenter infrastructure.

  I see these files:

  test. NVRAM

  test.VMDK

  test - s001.vmdk

  test - s002.vmdk

  test.vmsd

  test.vmx

  test.vmxf

  VMware.log

  How can I import this virtual machine? I have to create the file (what a name? "It is a necessary specific name?) in my data store where I'm going to move these files?

  After?

  I see these files:

  test.vmx

  What is the source of these files? Like VMware Workstation or vCenter/ESXi?

  If these documents are in vCenter/ESXi, then copy the whole folder to the ESXi 5.5 data store

  Once copied a right-click on the test.vmx file and registry with the default settings.

• Script to create multiple virtual machines model works is not for the network adapter variable

  We are working on a script to create multiple virtual machines from a template. The script works fine, but when we try to include commands to set the NIC to a group of specific ports on a dvswitch script errors on. Here's what we have so far. This script (less network variables) works, but we would like to include the network configs in the script as well.

  -------------------

  This is the part of the script that configures the network/dvswitch adapter... but does not work properly.

  $myResourcePool = get-ResourcePool-name DQOL

  $dsName = get-Datastore-name "DQOL-DS01.

  $myTemplate = get-Template-name "DQVTemplate".

  $distributedSwitchPortGroup = get-VirtualSwitch-distributed - name "CVE-dvS04-Nexus - k 5 | Get-VirtualPortGroup-name '979-DQ-SHARED '.

  New-VM-name MyVM1-model $myTemplate - Networkname ResourcePool - $myResourcePool - OSCustomizationSpec $mySpecification $distributedSwitchPortGroup - Datastore

  (Get-$dsName data store)

  New-VM-name MyVM2-model $myTemplate - ResourcePool $myResourcePool - OSCustomizationSpec $mySpecification - Datastore (Get-$dsName data store)

  _____________________

  !!!!!!!  This part works, but without specifying a network/dvswitch... card!

  $myResourcePool = get-ResourcePool-name DQOL

  $dsName = get-Datastore-name "CVE-SAN-ISG-DS02-02ef.

  $myTemplate = get-Template-name "DQVTemplate".

  New-VM-name MyVM3-model $myTemplate - ResourcePool $myResourcePool - OSCustomizationSpec $mySpecification - Datastore (Get-$dsName data store)

  New-VM-name MyVM4-model $myTemplate - ResourcePool $myResourcePool - OSCustomizationSpec $mySpecification - Datastore (Get-$dsName data store)

  Here is the error we get:

  New-VM: all parameters can be resolved by using the specified named parameters.

  C:\Users\capuanoj\Desktop\Create-multiplevms-fromtemplate.ps1:6 char: 7

  + New-VM < < < <-name MyVM1-model $myTemplate - Networkname $distributedSwitchPortGroup - ResourcePool

  ePool - OSCustomizationSpec $mySpecification - Datastore (Get-$dsName data store)

  + CategoryInfo: InvalidArgument: (:)) [new-VM], ParameterBindingException)

  + FullyQualifiedErrorId: AmbiguousParameterSet, VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Cmdlets.Commands.NewVM

  You cannot use the - model and Networkname - parameters of the cmdlet New - VM in a single order, because both are in different parameter sets. You must first create the virtual machine and then use the cmdlet Set-NetworkAdapter to change the portgroup of the virtual machine. As in example 4, assistance from cmdlet Set-NIC:

  --------------  Example 4 --------------

  C:\PS>$myNetworkAdapters = Get - VM | Get-NetworkAdapter-name "NIC 1.
  $myVDPortGroup = get-VDPortgroup-name MyVDPortGroup
  Together-NetworkAdapter NetworkAdapter - $myNetworkAdapters - $myVDPortGroup Portgroup

  Retrieves all network named "NIC 1" cards of all virtual machines and connects to the specified distributed port group.

• vmreconfig.pl add a CD/DVD device will fail if the virtual machine created with vmcreate.pl

  I am trying to add a cdrom to my VM I created with the vmcreate.pl.

  When I use the script vmreconfig.pl to create the cdrom I get the following error...

  Cannot use a value that is not defined as a reference to a matrix to/usr/lib/vmware-vcli/apps/vm /... AppUtil/VMUtil.pm line 898.

  OK so I have create a cdrom in vSphere and try again manually...

  Addition of the cd 'cd '...
  Virtual machine 'vmname4' is reconfigured successfully.

  OK, so I think that my VM I created with the vmcreate.pl missing the ide0: 0 or something...

  Any suggestions on how I can do this?

  I'm doing the following...

  1. create the virtual machine by using vmcreate.pl.

  2. Add the CDrom to the virtual machine using vmreconfig.pl.

  Thanks in advance.

  Just watched this.

  The vmreconfig.pl script does not handle the case of a device not defined in the VirtualIDEController object array.

  Look like the real device table is not defined until an IDE device is actually connected (or when a new IDE device is added).  I'm not 100% sure of what generates the actual peripheral table off the coast of the VirtualIDEController, but the case of a table of undefined device should be handled in the script to reconfigure.

  I can see the two solutions here, first write a custom script that adds the CDROM and manages this one-off case.  Then, modify the vmreconfig.pl script to handle this particular case of a painting of the disconnected device.

  In VMUtil.pm, you will find line number 929:

  My = $unitNumber $# {$controller-> device} + 1;

  This is to change:

  My = $unitNumber (set $controller-> device)? $# {$controller-> device} + 1:0;

  There may be other cases in the VMUtil.pm module that needs to be updated as well.  For this reason, it may be better to just write your own custom tool.  However, the simple correction above may let you go ahead with your project in the short term.

• Creation of the virtual machine on a cluster using the vmcreate.pl script

  Hello

  I checked a few posts on this forum on how to create the virtual machine through vmcreate.pl, but responses was not so clear to me...

  These are the topics I've read:

  Create a VM on the Cluster instance

  How to configure the managed object HostSystem

  So, I would like to create a virtual machine on a Cluster, and not on a specific host. The vmcreate.pl script would have done the job? Or should I change it?

  In the topic = > VM create instance on Cluster I did not quite get, what I need to change...

  That's what I do:

  vmcreate.pl - server 'ESX NAME' - username "LOGIN" - password 'PASS' filename - vmcreate.xml - schema vmcreate.xsd

  
  

  Result:

  Creation of the 'myTestMachine ': VM error

  SOAP fault:

  Error string: InvalidArgument

  The fault detail: InvalidArgument

  Here are the values of the XML file:

  < name > myTestMachine < / name >

• Transfer a Virtual Machine in Esx 2.5 to an ESX 4.1

  Hi all

  For a client, I need to transfer 3 virtual machines on an ESX 2.5 in stand-alone mode (local storage / VMFS2) for a new ESX 4.1 (local storage / VMFS3)

  I'm looking for a solution but without success. I see two ways to to do, but I can't test it before the migration, so could you give me your advice.

  (1) I copy all virtual machines in ESX 2.5 to the new storage to ESX 4.1 with scp.

  I create the virtual machine with the vmdk

  I put the last VmTools

  Upgrade virtual hardware

  (2) I have try the VmConverter username but I don'k know if he recognizes the VM Esx 2.5

  Is there another solution?

  Thanks for your help!
