Find all the virtual machines attached to a specific ISO on the data store?

Hello

I can't delete some files on our data warehouses. According to me, that question is b/c, that some virtual machines are connected over. How can I find on what virtual machines are connected to the ISO files?

Thanks in advance,

J

  • Can not find templates of virtual machine by using the command 'Get Template '.

    Hi all

    My apologies if this question was asked before, but not could not find any information about this.

    For some reason when I use the command Get-model PowerCLI I get no results even though I have models on the data store. Using a command such as Get - VM works as expected, but for some reason that the command Get-model just can't find anything. There is something pressing that I may have missed in my virtual environment configuration?

    The environment consists of a data center with a 5.1 ESXi host and several virtual machines residing on it. I also have a virtual appliance of vCenter to manage the host.

    Thank you

    Matt

    Hi Matt,

    When you run Connect-VIServer, you connect to the server ESXi and vCenter?

    I just tested the two:

    • SE connect-VIServer-ESXi Server

      • Get-model didn't recover all data
    • SE connect-VIServer-Server vCenter
      • Get model retrieved data

    Maybe that's the case?

    Hope this helps,

    Steven.

  • Script to list all the warehouses of data in a cluster, the virtual machines on the data store and the host of the virtual machine is on

    We have warehouses of data which are seen by more than one cluster. I need a script that will display:

    all stores of data seen by a cluster

    the virtual machines on the data store

    the host of the virtual machine is on

    the cluster the host is in

    The output I want is

    name of the store of data, the VM name, host name, the name of the Cluster

    any help would be appreciated

    Pretty sure this will do what you need:

    $report = @()
    Foreach($cluster in Get-Cluster){
        $datastores = $cluster | Get-VMHost | Get-Datastore
        foreach($datastore in $datastores){
        $vms = $datastore | Get-VM
        If ($vms.count -ge 1){
            foreach($VM in $vms){
            $object = New-Object -TypeName PSObject -Property @{
                  Datastore = $datastore.Name
                  VM = $VM.Name
                  HostName = $VM.VMhost
                  Cluster = $cluster
                }
            $report += $object
            }
    
        }
        }
    }
    $report | Export-Csv C:\Temp\VMs.csv -NoTypeInformation -UseCulture
    

    If you only want to shared data warehouses you can then use

    $datastores = $cluster | Get-VMHost | Get-Datastore | Where {$_.Extensiondata.Summary.MultipleHostAccess -eq $True}
    

    Hope this helps

  • Rename all the virtual machine files in the data store

    Hello

    We have renamed one of the name of the server of our virtual machine running on esx3.5. In addition, we have renamed this server in VC to reflect the new name of the server. Please tell us how we can rename all files in this virtual machine residing in the data store to reflect the new name of the server.

    Appreciate your quick response.

    Thanks in advance...

    You can use sVMotion and move it to another data store or migrate from cold.  Two tasks will rename the underlying set of files.

  • Machine virtual IOPS / s report, how to display the name of the data store?

    Hi guys

    I am new to the Foglight community, this is a great tool, and I learn a lot.

    Currently I am trying to create a simple table that will show me metric of my VMware environment: Virtual Machine name, Datastore IOPS and data store.

    However I can't find how to include data store name in the table, because it is not a measure of the Virtual Machine. I think I need to expand the scope of my table to include VMware Datastore, but I don't know how to do this.

    -Mark

    Check the options available it seems that it can be done with WCF (the frame behind the Foglight dashboards).  We recommend generally customers who plan to build views WCF take adequate training or our PSO people engaged in it.

    In any case I can help show a quick example of how it's done.

    Please try this on a local/test server.

    Go to Configuration > definition >

    Make sure that you are in my definition, and click the icon to add a view. then choose from the tables and trees - oriented line table

    Give a name to the view, go public and make a portlet/reportlet and apply

    Switch to the configuration tab and click the change for the lines and choose a query

    Under query, expand the VMware and scroll down

    Until you can select the query for virtual machines

    And press the set button.

    Your view should look like this

    Now you must select the columns.

    Each column has a value you can edit and there is a button + to add additional columns.

    Lets start with the name of the virtual machine - click on the button to change to your default column and choose the context.

    Click on the drop down menu to enter key and choose the current line (virtual vmware machine)

    Click on the drop down menu to access path and scroll down until you can select the name and then click on set.

    You have created a table that lists the names of all virtual machines.

    You can click on save. and then click test, choose a time and click the result. A new window will open a show the list you of virtual machines.
    From here you can continue to add additional columns, each time choosing the key entry in the current line and the path to the metric/string to display.

    For example, the name of the data store.
    I change the module

    Click the configuration tab and click the icon to add a column

    For the column value, that I chose defined context once again, the key input is the current row and for the path, I expand the node for the data store

    And scroll until I see the Proprietename

    If you save and test you will see the result

    Keep adding columns and the data you want, notice that you have arrows that allow you to control the order of the columns.

    Note that you can click Show advanced configuration properties

    This will give you the opportunity to see the properties of the extra table, such as header - giving you the opportunity to give a more meaningful name (name of the data store, the name of the virtual machine, etc.) to the column header.

    You can now go you drag and drop the table edge/report and under my eyes, you will see your new view

    Drop it in the main view

    I hope this has given you the starting point to build this table.

    As I said, I strongly recommend going through our WCF training if you plan build more custom views or hire software Dell PSO Organisation to help build you views that correspond to your need.

    Best regards

  • List of virtual machines in the data store that is not in stock

    Hi guys

    PowerCLI rookie here, sorry for the stupid questions.

    I'm trying to clean up a bunch of singehost with local data warehouses. So I need a script that can display a list of files of virtual machine on a data store that is not used by VMs in the inventory. One of the problems is that the files on the data store, isn't every means, named exactly the same as the virtual machine in the inventory.

    Summer watching this, but I think the term "orphan" is "sent, in my view, it is:

    Please try:

    $AllFilesLocalDatastore = get-data store 'localdatastorename ' | Get-fileindatastore

    }

    $FilesNotIdentifiedAsAssociatedToAnyVM | OGV

  • IP address on the virtual machine windows endangered endangered after the importation of the data store.

    I'm gaving a problem with the IP on windows vm disappear after having mounted the snapshot to restore. Here's what I do.

    Mount making LUNS to the esx host area

    I have eyebrows outside the data store to find the vm I want to right click and click Import the vmx file.

    Imports of the virtual machine and when I start it up I wonder if I've moved or copied the VM. I have tried both moved and copy but when I connect to the virtual machine is missing all its IP info.

    Any way to avoid the losting vm sound IP info when I import to the host from a LUN outlet?

    Hello

    Installs on the forum of the Virtual Machine and the guest operating system.

    The MAC of a virtual computer is based on the UUID/name of the virtual machine so if you are not using a static MAC (one that recognizes VMware) and it will change the IP address might also change if you are using DHCP. So I suggest to use a static MAC in the VM configuration.

    Another way is to set up the guest operating system in the virtual machine with a static IP address instead of a DHCP function.

    But if you are unable to remove the virtual machine or the copy in the virtual machine, there may be something locking these files would be an another running virtual machine. If you need to find this VM and kill him. In this case, "vmware-cmd - L" and 'vmware-cmd - l' host in question can be useful to find where the 'hidden' VM is running.  Ultimately you can use ' vm-support - x "to find a list of the virtual machines running by how the hypervisor lists. Then use 'vm-support - Z' to suspend the offending virtual machine that should unlock everything.

    Yes, the use of these commands is command line.

    However, before using these commands determine if you can find the place where life VM incriminated.

  • List of virtual machines in the data store but is not registered in the inventory

    I have a perl script that can list all the virtual machines in a datasore given by using the HostDatastoreBrowser object.

    However this only back vms who are registered. I want to be able to find images that have 'removed from the inventory' users but not destroyed on the data store.

    I even reach this may by using the HostDatastorBrowser? If this is not the case, how can I achieve my goal?

    Thank you

    Hello

    You can, but you may need to put the data in a different format. It is actually more a matter of perl a matter of VI Toolkit.

    You must create the appropriate list, then use the PERL map function to evaluate an expr on the entire list. Personally I just use a foreach example statement.

  • Save the data of State machine after each iteration, then write all the data at once

    I have trouble finding in the best way to manage data generated by my state machine. Here are the data that it will save:

    * When pressure is set, a set point is returned.

    * When the pressure is set, a reading is taken a multimeter.

    What would be the best way to do this? Would it not be better to store all the data in memory, and then write all the data at once? If so, what would be the best way to do this? I want to use the tool to generate report after have set all the pressures. I joined my current application. Thank you all!

    Several months ago (maybe even a couple of years), I discovered that backup/restore are not created.  At this time I posted a question here.  Which lead to a very long series of back & suite assignments between myself & a answering machine (name?) & Finally I planned a daily task to create backup/restore points.  I saved the instructions into a Word document on my computer, but now I can't find them.

    I just found out that there is still no restore point, even though the Task Scheduler shows that he ran this morning @ 02:00.

  • I've set up the virtual machine in win 7 Ultimate and put some data. Now when I try to connect it asks password and does not accept any password.

    Default password Machine virtual XP Mode

    I've set up the virtual machine in win 7 Ultimate and put some data. Now when I try to connect it asks password and does not accept any password. Please giveme the default password

    If you're talking about XP Mode the default password is XPMUser.  In general you can not use Windows without a password in Windows Virtual PC that you can with Virtual PC 2007 and before.  XPMUser is used only with the XP Mode virtual machine.  All other virtual machines requires a user created password.  If you have changed the password in XP Mode and forgotten, then you have to start over.

    Windows Virtual PC is based on virtual server rather than VPC and all virtual machines need a password.  If necessary, uninstall the integration features, start the virtual machine and create a password for the admin user.  Restart the virtual machine, and then reinstall the integration features.  You will not be able to access a virtual machine created by the user that has no password, while the integration features are installed.  Once you have everything right, that a virtual machine will not be asked a password if you are the admin user in Windows 7.

  • Migration of virtual machines from a data store, and then delete the data store?

    Hello

    I have a future deployment this month and my Director wants to build a new RAID 6 array, create a store of data with the new table and then move all the VMS to the newly created data store.

    Then he asked me to take the old data store and remove it and the available space between the deleted data store and other stores of data in our shared environment. The question is when the new raid is created and vm has migrated to the new data store, which is the best way to remove the data store empty and make sure that the space available for other data stores? Any help would be appreciated...

    Greg ~.

    If all controls are met, you can go ahead and take it apart without any problem.

    I have re-iterate below checks:

    -No virtual machine is in the data store

    -The data store is not part of the cluster data store

    -The data store is not managed by the DRS storage

    -IGCS is disabled for this data store

    -The data store is not used for vSphere HA heartbeat.

    Especially highlighted 2 controls. Please note that SIOC can be enabled on the data without SDR photo store
