Find entities within multiple vCenters
Well... now that my brain is wrecked near I ask for help
I'm doing a script to search for an entity as a whole of the Vcenters. I have to put the name of the entity, the Type (I give to make this variable...) and the Vcenter... Only two types of information from different vcenters.
Example:
Name | Type |
---|---|
CL002-01 | Cluster |
Vm001-POC | VirtualMachine |
The challenge for this task is to reduce the response time... The old writing back information, but a lot of time is wasted.
I came here and my brain won't work more... Any help?
Add: a question... is it possible to connect to multiple Vcenters using 'orders-work' and use the connection information of them somehow?

When you run too many jobs in parallel and thus focus on memory and CPU, the total duration of the session, then if you run them in batches.
With the Invoke-Command cmdlet, you use the ThrottleLimit parameter, which allows better control how much desired parallelism.
See also example 2 the Start-Job cmdlet.

The installer: We have multiple vCenters each with their own SSO. We must build a minimum install vRA lab 6.1 and used the SSO to the vCenter which is the endpoint lab (and ended up having problems when this vCenter SSO had to be rebuilt and in turn liquid reconstruction vRA). Building on a vRA 6.2 Distributed Lab (based on deployment in the 6.1 reference architecture) to validate our production plan and decided to use the identity.
Question: For a production buildout there is no reason not to use the device of the identity (scalability, performance, lack of HA)? If you are using vSphere SSO, when there are multiple vCenters one that should be used for SSO of vRA? If that vSphere SSO is never removed (say on the whole things are replaced by a central SSO for all vCenters rather than each on their own, or some issue needs to be rebuilt) is there a clean way to repoint SSO vRA without a reconstruction?
Post edited by: RebeccaW (removed unrelated to Postgres question)
What I did in this case is to build a fresh cluster SSO using vCenter SSO and pointing vCAC on this one. It becomes my main source of SSO and I slowly vCenters point and other components to it overtime. You usually put vCAC SSO signed certificates and generally I find people vCenter SSO deployment in this way. To remedy this trying to modify an existing SSO vCenters and risk having to reinstall your VC because you missed the CERT, simply create a new. This also alleviates a changing overtime vCenter and spoil the vCAC SSO. The unit of identity cannot be clustered or joining existing areas of SSO. So if you are looking for HA and scale which probably does not cut it.

Multiple VCenters in one VSphere Client
Kinda new to this but just curious, can you have multiple VCenters in a single client VSphere? Currently I have 6 VCenters I log in, I have therefore 6 vsphere client running.
Welcome to the community.
You can configure in bound mode. According the current scenario of you, you have already configured the vcente. If you need to add them in to a single pane view vcenter.
Here's a nice blog that help you solve your problem.
hope you find interesting.

How to connect multiple Vcenters in powercli
Hi all
I would like to know how to connect multiple vcenters in powercli by obtaining user input.
as below
For example: Se connect-viserver -.
Output should be:
Please enter the number of vcenters that you want to connect:3 (data)
Please enter host vcenters, that you want to connect:
vcenter1
vcenter2
vcenter3
After that, he should join conencted to all mentioned vcenters and continue with the next steps in the script
Try something like this
$vc = @)
$nrVC = Read-Host-Prompt "Please enter the number of the vcenters you want to connect.
Write-Host "vcenters/host you want to connect please enter."
1.. $nrVC | %{
$vc += Read-Host
}

Running on multiple vCenters vCheck
Can I simply by running the vCheck report only once on a single window PowerCLI run it against multiple vCenters at the same time? Or do I need to have a separate PowerCLI session for each vCenter that I run against?
The current version of vCheck seems to provide 1 single host (vCenter) to connect to (the variable $Server in GlobalVariables.ps1).
So for now, you need to run the script multiple times I'm afraid.

Inventory report - multiple vCenters
Hello group,
I am trying to run a report of inventory using the script below. When it is executed on a vCenter only the output is great, but when I try to run the same report on multiple vCenters then the output has the values of the first vCenter in the script for others as well... So in this case the script runs first on vcenter01 and prints the output and then runs on vcenter02 but prints only the same values of vcenter01... Pls help...
$vcenters = "vcenter01", "vcenter02".

VMSavvy
Hello, VMSavvy-
The results you see are due to the 'DefaultVIServerMode' of your PowerCLI instance configuration. When it is "multiple" and make you a Get - VM, it gets for example, VMS in all connected vCenters.
So you can change your code a couple of different ways in order to get info from both single vCenter.
One way would be to change the location to connect to vCenter servers give - navigate the script block Foreach Connect-VIServer and have simply plug the $vcserver current in this iteration of the Foreach loop. Then, at the end of the script Foreach block, add a logout-VIServer-confirm: $false to disconnect. The next iteration through will connect to the following server vCenter.
Another way would be to add the server to the GET setting-* cmdlets. Thus, for example, the line that gets the VMHosts would change something like:
...$intyhosts = Get-VMHost -Server $vcserver | Sort Name...
That tells the cmdlet to contact the vSphere server specified in the request. Preventing counties apparently duplicate that have seen you.
How does do for you?

VCOPS through multiple vCenters not in bound mode
Hello
Y at - it no limitation of licensing for me deployment VCOPS enterprise edition on multiple instances of vCenter server, where the vCenter servers are not in bound mode? All vCenter servers are part of the same company, but I saw that the VCOPS will be separate proceedings related to the separate vCenter servers am breaking licensing rules by installing all these instances with the same license key?
Gregg
Do not use the standalone vCenter based Licensing. Therefore, you can upgrade the license in this version of the product and then monitor any number of the vCenters.
The VAPP version gets and use reports to a single vCenter, which becomes the source of the license. You can put a single license in the vCenter and then follow multiple vCenters with a single instance of vApp... up to the limit.
If you want to have a paralytic by vCenter, then (as shown above), you will need to divide portal site licenses VMware.com have enough per VAPP installed on each vCenter licenses.

Linking multiple vcenters powercli
I know that you can connect to multiple vcenters, right to the point.
If I do
to connect-VIServer servera, serverb, and serverc (entry of username and passwd)
the only active vcenter is serverc. (the last in my command "connect-VIServer" line.
What gives?
I need to run a script to analyze the vcenters all at the same time. Of course, I can't run against each vcenter but I hope I don't have to.
Thank you!!!
When you run $DefaultVIServers , it returns with vCenter all which you are connected.
If not run Set-PowerCLIConfiguration - multiple DefaultVIServerMode and try to connect multiple vcenter

How get a vCenter clusters when are multiple vCenters in vCO?
Hello
How can I get with vCO 5.5 all a vCenter clusters, where I have more vCenters added to the vCO?
I've only known to VM name parameter corresponding to the vCenter.
Thank you
Hello
The connection to each vCenter is represented by the object of type VcSdkConnection. If you have a virtual computer object, we will name it vmObj, and then you can get the sdk connection by accessing the vmObj.sdkConnection property. So, for all the clusters in the vCenter, you can use the following code:
var clusters = vmObj.sdkConnection.getAllClusterComputeResources(); for each (var cluster in clusters) { // do something with the cluster object }
Now, you don't have virtual machine object but only virtual machine name. It complicates the s thing a bit as VM names are not unique across the vCenters. How will you handle this situation?
For a code example illustrating one possible way to find the virtual computer object by name (possibly with multiple matches), take a look at the script action com.vmware.library.vc.vm.getAllVMsMatchingRegexp

Two entities with multiple relationships
We have problems with features including multiple relationships. We use data version 4.0.3.853 maker
I saw the problem with a simple example.
I create a PERSON entity with primary key ID
I create another PARENT table with a ratio of 1-1 identification with ANYONE
An ID attribute correctly created on the PARENT entity
Now, I create another 1-n PERSON_HAS_PARENT of PARENT (1 side) relationship to ANYONE (north face)
I would expect Data Modeler to create a separate attribute on the PERSON table for the new relationship
Instead the Panel attributes FK remains empty and if I engineer the model to a relational model I find that
two foreign keys PARENT_IS_PERSON and PERSON_HAS_PARENT insist on the same attributes.
In addition, I can't find any way to force the Data Modeler to use a separate target for the relationship of PERSON_HAS_PARENT attribute.
Hello
Version 4.1 has been published and includes a fix for this problem.

A PowerCLI script against multiple vCenters, at the same time
Can I run a script against more than one simultaneously vCenter powerCLI?
For example:
Get - vm
and they report all virtual machines in two different vCenters?
First, a clarification, connection, with AllLinked set to $true, to a vCenter that is part of a vCenter Server Federation, is not the same as PowerCLI running in Multiple mode.
In Multiple mode, all vSphere server connections that are made, are stored together in the $global: variable defaultVIServers.
All cmdlets, which do not specify a vSphere specific server with the Server parameter, will run on all servers of vSphere in the $global: variable defaultVIServers.
For your question, we will first check if everything is properly configured.
Check if the configuration says "Multiple" for all scopes.
Get-PowerCLIConfiguration
If you see something like this
the parameter will be that during your session in courses .
When you stop/start the session, the setting will be gone.
You can change the AllUsers parameter, like this
Game-PowerCLIConfiguration - multiple DefaultVIServerMode - worn AllUsers
Then you will see this
and the configuration will be remembered between sessions.

multiple vcenters - sso single or multiple sso
I had 3 vcenters all located in different geographical locations. It is best to create sso 3 different areas or just one?
If I do just one, then my PSC must be in a single site?
can I make a field of SSO (vsphere.local) on all 3 sites and make them reproduce?
When you deploy third PSC, to join the SINGLE existing authentication domain, or any of the existing PSC hostname will do. No such concept master PSC host here.
