• Cluster data warehouses

  I would like to create a dashboard that displays a list of all VMWare clusters and for each handset display data warehouses that are used for each of them. Looking for a way to create the dashboard without slipping each store data in the dashboard.

  1 is it possible with a query of the user interface?

  Data > VMWare > centers > (name datacenter) > cluster > (cluster name) > ESX host > (host name) > storage > data warehouses

  If you want the names and what may not be a little cleaner that I would try this, it also removes the need for the additional query keep things all neat.

  cluster = server.get ("QueryService").queryTopologyObjects("!) VMWCluster')

  output =]

  (cluster in clusters)

  {

  data warehouses = cluster.esxServers.datastores

  for (data in data warehouses store)

  {

  map = [VMWCluster:cluster.name, VMWDatastore: datastore.name]

  output. Add (Map)

  }

• Removal of host SDR data warehouses

  Hello

  I have a scenario where I want to migrate to a host and the VM between two clusters. I unfortunately had a number of DTS data warehouses attached to the host, no virtual machine is running from these storages of data on this host... I'm trying to disassemble stores but as expected get the error indicating that data warehouses are part of a cluster of EIM.

  Is it possible to no disturbance delete Host data warehouses.

  Thank you

  Steve

  So, what you want, remove some cluster DTS data warehouses and pass a host of a DRS cluster to another's is?

  Try the following steps:

  (1) remove the DTS cluster data warehouses, just move the data store outside the cluster for DTS;

  (2) move the host to the new DRS cluster target, if you have virtual machines running on it and cannot put the host in maintenance mode, you will need disconnect host, remove from the inventory and then add the host again to the new cluster.

  (3) If you wish, add data warehouses to the DTS of the new DRS cluster cluster.

• How can I get the list of data stores in a cluster data store?

  How can I get the list of data stores in a cluster data store? I mean the command line option.

  by command line, you mean PowerCLI?

  If so, you can display data with this warehouses:

• get the data store with details of mapped cluster

  Hi with the script below, I am able to do data store maps on which the cluster and its host details... but I'm having multiple LUNS how to write for everyone to get to each store data below the output...

  Get-data store 'testdatastore ' | Get-VMHost | Name,@{N="cluster select '; E={$_| Get-Cluster}}, version

  Output:

  Version of cluster name

  10.0.0.0 testcluster 5.1.0

  Desired output:

  I need the name of output data store because I check for several data stores... can someone help me to get .csv exit foreach datastore as below

  Data name cluster version store

  testdatastore 10.0.0.0 testcluster 5.1.0

  testdatastore 1

  10.0.0.1 testcluster2 5.1.0

  What type of data store?

  I'm asking because there is no mentioned properties (. ExtensionData.Info.Vmfs.Extent) for data warehouses is of type NFS:

  PowerCLI C:\Windows\system32 > ((get-datastore_iscsi*).ExtensionData.Info.Vmfs.Extent). Diskname

  NAA.60a9800042594835695d453439742f53

  PowerCLI C:\Windows\system32 > ((get-datastore_NFS).ExtensionData.Info.Vmfs.Extent). Diskname

  So, you'll need probably something like this:

  Get-Datastore. % { $ds=$_; Get-VMHost - Datastore $ds | Select @{N = 'Data store name'; E = {$ds. Name}},@{N="NAA '; E = {if($ds.) Type - such as 'NFS') {'NFS'} elseif($ds.) Type - as "VMFS") {[String]: join (", ($ds.ExtensionData.Info.Vmfs.Extent|% {$_.}))} DISKNAME}))}}}, name, @{N = 'cluster'; E={$_| {Get-Cluster}}, version}

• New analysis of data warehouses... at the level of the Cluster with PowerCLI 5?

  Hello

  Since vSphere has been provided (I think) the option to open a new analysis of the HBA on every host in the cluster ESXs is available in the GUI if you click with the right button on the cluster, select analyze again to data warehouses.

  I have read several threads from people requesting this option in Powercli but have not found a solution for this.

  When you do Get-Cluster-name | Get-vmhost | Get-vmhoststorage - RescanAllHBA to do this, the new analysis a host once in the cluster.

  Is there a solution for this now in PowerCLI 5.0?

  Henrik

  As far as I know, there is still no option to launch the new analysis across the cluster in paralel.

  I changed the report to display data clustered warehouses. I also changed the deletion of the part of the file to a solution of PowerShell with the Remove-Item cmdlet. Just to show how to do this. You don't need to delete the file if it already exists, because it will be ignored by the Export-CSV cmdlet. In addition, I changed the calculation of the PercentFree to use the original instead of the string values as this does not work in cultures with a comma as the decimal symbol.

• Cannot filter Cluster using PowerCLI data warehouses

  Hi, I am trying to retrieve information from a data store and I need the cluster, the data store is associated. I have to, reason or another, can't use the clusters in the searchroot as parameter:

  $cluster = get-Cluster-name "mycluster.

  Notice-EEG - ViewType Datastore SearchRoot - $cluster.id

  It does not return anything for me, where as if I replace the module in a data center, I get all data from the data center storage, even if I need the cluster as well. So I found another way to get the cluster through the host by using this code snippet that I whipped:

  $vmhosts = $datastore. Host

  $cluster = get-view-id (Get-View-Id $vmhosts [0].) Key | Select - Parent property). Parent | Select - the property name

  Write-Host $cluster. Name

  .. .or $datastore is a view of the data store. This gives me the name of the cluster, although the script works very slow and takes a long time to run. Our environment contains several thousand data storage so you can see why the time of execution of the script is a big concern for me. Here's the complete function to give the context of my question.

• Fully connecting directly attached data warehouses in a cluster of ESXi?

  I have deployed two identical 5.1 ESXi hosts (servers Dell PowerEdge r720xd) each to 5,46 with storage to direct connection. They are both currently enrolled in our vCenter Server 5.1 and participate in a HA cluster. Their respective databases are also members of a group of data store.

  Each host is connected to its own data store, but not the other host data store. This effectively disables most of the HA/DTS features, and connection status of host for each data store is marked with a warning for missing connections. We have desire of VM migration and load balancing between the two hosts and the warehouses of data to be as homogeneous and transparent as possible.

  My question is simple: what is the most practical and effective way to establish the necessary connections to reach a State fully connected to hosts and data warehouses?

  Hello

  in this case you need something like a virtual appliance that uses your local storage to make it a shared storage. Your hosts can then access the storage via iSCSI/NFS. At the end of the day, you will have the space of a single node left (CT ~ 5.46), because the device (s) will reflect your data for more security against failure of the host.

  The easiest way would probably be the vSphere Storage Appliance

  But there are also other solutions as a virtual of DataCore and HP StoreVirtual VSA facility.

• Get-stat - disk for virtual machines on NFS data warehouses

  Hi all

  Through work for VMs on NFS data warehouses get-stat-disc?

  $myVM | Get-stat - disc

  Doesn't seem to work for VMs on NFS data warehouses, but that works for VMs on VMFS data warehouses.

  After a presentation of VMware to http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:h78Db7LqHcwJ:www.slideshare.net/vmwarecarter/powercli-workshop+%2Bget-stat+%2Bnfs & cd = 2 & hl = in & ct = Europeans & gl = at the & source = www.google.com.au

  «WARNING: NFS performance statistics are not available (to come in a future version of vSphere).»

  When these statistics are available for NFS data storage?

  Kind regards

  marc0

  The answer is in the property of instance data that Get-Stat returns.

  (1) get-Stat ==> canonical name of the LUN on which disk the hard

  (2) get-Stat virtualdisk ==> The SCSI id of the virtual disk inside the VM

  (3) get-Stat data store ==> the name of the data store

  (1) you give statistics for view virtual machine i/o activity starting from the LUN. For a VM with several virtual disks on the same data store, this will display the total IO statistics. And it will also include i/o generated by another VM on the LUN as swap, Flash files related...

  (2) gives statistics for 1 specific virtual disk of your virtual machine

  (3) statistics of e/s of your VM to a specific data store. Interesting when you have a store of data with multiple extensions (multiple LUNS)

  I hope that clarifies it a bit.

• Get-hard drives - storage drives data store migrate between data warehouses

  Hi all

  
  

  Our current storage configuration with specially designed split-role of the bases of data storages (OS, LOG SQL, SQL DATA, APP, Exchange roles, etc.)  I do a storage store on my VMware Infrastructure and hoped to target only the disks of virtual machines that are on any data store and migrate them to another.  Rather new to PowerCli if you're wondering why the bellows of the command does not work and the reports that the file is locked.
  

  
  

  Get-hard drive - data store 'Datastore01 ' | Moving-hard drive - data store Datastore02

  If the machine virtual itself is made aware of the command?  Would I have to enumarte the virtual machines on the first data store and then target discs that everyone has and redirect it to the hard disk Move command?

  Thanks in advance

  Yes, you are banging in the sequence of commands trying to move a file on the data store without referencing the virtual machine. According to the State of the virtual machine (lit or not) of different things happen

  • VM power off - the disc is moved and the virtual machine is broken (the vmx file will always point to the original location for the HD that is no longer there)
  • Virtual MACHINE power - the disk is locked, so it cannot be moved (the error you have seen)

  Another thing to keep in mind is that the configuration of the VM is also on a data store, so if you want to move the entire virtual machine you can just move the hard drives

  If all the virtual machines on a data store have all their HDs on this data store then you can do something like

  Get - VM - data store 'Datastore01 ' | Move-VM - data store "Datastore02".

  To access the VM configuration, but also his records. If you have virtual machines where the disks into a single virtual machine, then you will have a little more work to do to sort the records that must be moved

  Get - VM - data store 'Datastore01 ' | Get-hard drive | Where-Object {$_.} FileName.Contains ("[Datastore01]")} | Moving-hard drive - data store "Datastore02".

  This is all virtual machines with a component (hard drive or configuration) on Datastore1, and then for each VM is all hard disks that are on Datastore01 and the Datastore02

• Collection of data warehouses in the Script of commissioning

  Hi all

  First of all, I want to say thank you for all the help provided in these communities.  It has been very valuable in recent years.

  I had the opportunity to work on a configuration script treated for over a week now and have got almost ready for release but got stuck on the type of a basic element - collection of data warehouses.

  The idea is that we can use this to launch several environments identical demand - ripe for automation!

  We get the number of machines required is in $clcount, and $dslist can be equal to something like this...

  Name	FreeSpaceGB	CapacityGB
  SAN-ds-3	3,399.11	5,119.75
  SAN-ds-4	1,275.26	5,119.75
  SAN-ds-2	661.813	5,119.75
  SAN-ds-5	292.342	5,119.75
  SAN-ds-8	273.204	5,119.75

  My method works as long as the number of machines is less than the number of available data warehouses, but fails if the number of machines exceeds available data warehouses.

  $resources = Get-Cluster "Compute 1"
  $OSSpec = Get-OSCustomizationSpec "Base 2012 R2"
  $dslist = get-datastore | where {$_.Name -match "SAN" -and $_.FreeSpaceGB -gt 200} | Sort FreeSpaceGB -Descending
  $folder = Get-Folder "Lab 2"
  $clcount = "17"
  $envn = "Lab2-"
  $OSSpec = $OSSpec | New-OSCustomizationSpec -Name Temp-Spec -Type NonPersistent -Confirm:$false
  foreach ($num in 1..$clcount){
      $suffix = "{0:D2}" -f $num
      $datastore = $dslist[$num-1]
      $OSSpec = $OSSpec | Set-OSCustomizationSpec -NamingScheme fixed -NamingPrefix "APPCL$suffix"
      New-VM -Name $envn"APPCL"$suffix -Template $template -OSCustomizationSpec $OSSpec -Location $folder -ResourcePool $resources -Datastore $datastore
  }
  ##End build Client Machines
  $OSSpec | Remove-OSCustomizationSpec -Confirm:$false
  
  

  I know it would be easy to solve with the clusters and SDR data store, but I believe that would always choose the store of data with the most free space and you can see our environment could be a little unbalanced, so I am trying to build in a little more intelligence in the distribution of these machines in data warehouses.

  Any help or pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!
  

  Use % (remainder of division) to transform $num into something that will be less than the size of option:

  $datastore = $dslist [$num % $dslist.count]

  Then change the ascending sort.

• I have a virtual machine that is resident on two data warehouses, and I need to move

  Okay, I'm trying to reconfigure the storage on a cluster of ESXi to software development, and I fell on a virtual machine that is resident on two data warehouses.  Somehow, the user has configured this thing to have most of the VM files on the data store 5 while all the vmdk but the residence on the data store 1 boot drive.  He probably did it because of the size of the old warehouses of data and the many VMs older than his colleagues left sitting.  Well, now I just reconfigure data warehouses so that there is more usable space, but I can't move this machine a virtual so that I can reconfigure the rest of storage.  (For reference, the old warehouses of data have been implemented in 4 sets of three disks in RAID 3 and a set of four disks in RAID 3 with two drives hot spare.)  For the record: not my idea.  I am reconfiguring them now to be a set of 15 drives in RAID 6, divided into two LUNS on both controllers, with a hot spare.)

  Well, now I need to figure out how to get this VM is spent at one of new data stores.  The data migration store feature does not work.  Any recommendations?

  Hi Dangingerich,

  You can move the VMDK individually with the advanced functionality of storage vMotion allows you to ask the data disk on your new storage space and then have the OS disk track.

  Here you can select the individual VMDK and move.
