Get the Guest OS family and full name of PowerCLI VM Tools not installed OS?

OK, been looking for this one, but need help...  If a virtual computer is turned off, or do not have installed VMware tools you can not get the OS or OS full name family?  Who can simply not be right... it's in the VMX file, in the UI Client VI, PowerCLI must so be able to get some how, right?  Someone has tackled this one!  Right?

Partly right.

The operating system that you see in the VIC or the VMX is what the creator of the host defined during the creation.

It corresponds with the parameter - ID on the New - VM cmdlet.

For more information on this ID, see errors during the GuestIDs of New - VM specification .

The problem is that the creator of the prompt can define what he wants here, it does not match with the actual OS installed on the client!

You can get this entry like this

(Get-VM  | Get-View).summary.config.guestFullName

  • How can I get the last connection time and full usernames on hyperion?

    I use essbase 9.3.1 with shared native security services.

EAS shows the list which designates the data exists somewhere. Can someone tell me how I can get the data in the system so I can see it in an editable form... like excel?

  • "Writing" the 'address book' s behaviour varies duration s 'email' and 'full name '.

    In most of my 'Contact's there is only an e-mail address, but some, the most important, have more. If I choose "Write", and "Full name" or ("Name") is not empty, then an e-mail address truncated, with unbalanced quotation marks, appears in the outgoing message. If "Display Name" is empty, each e-mail address gets its own line. Just what is planned here?

    (Other than that I rather keep "Display Name" empty because I don't want my posts automatically decorated.)

    There is also a bug to officially support comma delimiter mail address, just because it works is not supported. One address per line is Thunderbird officially how it.

    I added a Contact with the nickname "Cathy" and e-mail '[email protected], [email protected] '.

    Please a picture so I have an idea of what you mean. If your collage email addresses in the email address field separated by commas (and that's what I read) then it is a problem. It is not supported.

  • I get the windows login screen and I do not know the password for administrators

    I accidentally deleted my account and when the computer starts and I get the windows login screen and I do not know the administrators password. Also how can I reinstall windows when I got a disc when I brought my laptop. Thank you, Lorraine

    Thanks for getting back to me. I sold my old laptop to my son-in-law, and he asked me to remove my name from the computer off so that my name wasn't on the screen all the time. so I deleted the profile of cook of lorraine and made one for him, but I didn't give it a password. then I realized what I had to do (I got Lorraine where time is on the bottom of the screen), but was unable to highlight to remove it without a mouse. so I plugged a mouse, but the computer does not read, then I restarted the computer. When I restarted, all I could get was the windows login screen.

    then I typed in the name son-nlaws and they said that he was kidnapped, tyoed in mine and got the same and then typed in Administrator, but did not know the password. I have since reinstalled windows. XP Professional would not install saying a file was missing, so I installed xp family and is working again. He just has to click on what edition it wants to run. Professional XP of course happen just with the display of connection... but it can use again.
    Thank you once again, Lorraine

    I'm using Outlook 2002 on the XP Pro operating system.

    It lasts for almost a year, but I managed to work around the issue since it was started using a different outgoing SMTP user name and the password.  (More settings, outgoing server tab, log in using...)  Now it has stopped working.

    There are four machines at this place and all suffer from the same problem.  I use a LinkSys RVS4000 router.  The previous Linksys router has also had the same problem so I replaced, thinking he can correct the problem, he didn't.
    Troubleshooting:
    a. I am able to recreate the account on another machine to a different place and it works.
    b. I can take an account of my machine, create in this place and it will not work.
    c. accounts deleted and created a new, did not
    d. has replaced the router to the place with a new Linksys router
    e. contacted support for ISP, (Time Warner), they accuse the hosting company
    d. contacted support for hosting of the company (HostCentric) they blame the ISP
    c. confirmed username and passwords are correct.
    e. There are 4 machines in this place with different addresses.  All started having this problem/error the same day within hours
    f. may receive emails cannot be sent.

  • Get the guest OS unusable slow after a few hours / after restoring a snapshot

    Running an early 2009 Mac Pro with 10 GB of RAM, 2.66 Quad-Core Intel Xeon CPU, OS X 10.10.2. 7.1.1 the merger.

    I have a question where a guest OS I am running under Fusion will get inevitably unusably slow after that it worked for a while. Usually what happens is when I start the system, everything works well, and then after an hour or two, it will start running very slowly. Very basic operations like moving a window all about take a few seconds to complete, and I can see the screen slowly updated the window moves. Another example is by clicking on a menu in the menu bar might take several seconds for the menu even start drawing, and then a few seconds more for what it ends and during this time where the BONE is otherwise unresponsive. Essentially, the interaction of basic with the operating system is very difficult. If I stop the operating system and then start it back up again, it will resume performing normally for another hour or two.

    If I record a snapshot of a system and restore later, usually (but not always) will trigger to poor performance and I have to completely farm the guest operating system and start again it upward to fix.

    This happens regardless of which is the guest operating system. I did experience in OS X 10.6 - 10.9, Windows XP and Windows 7 32 - bit and 64 - bit.

    So far, I tried affecting versions material of these VMs to 10, as was recommended in other threads I've found to fix this exact problem. However, it is not fix things for me.

    Does anyone have an idea, what the problem? I'm quite like merger so far, more Parallels, but with this question, it is very difficult for me to get work done. I hope it can be resolved.

    Thanks in advance!

    I had the same problem since V7 came out.   At one point, from 1 hour to 7 days, all my virtual machines would slow to a crawl.   The only solution was to close all, vmware close and restart.   I spent months to fine-tune different settings.

    I did a few manual tweaks after searching on the net and see some common parameters which have been recommended.   After 4 to 6 weeks, my problem has not reappeared.   I don't know which of these parameters has solved my problem, but you can give them a try.   I don't have an SSD if you may or may not want to use the virtualSSD parameter according to your configuration.

    The settings that I have added are:

    mainMem.backing = 'swap '.

    scsi0:0.virtualSSD = 1

    MemTrimRate = '0 '.

    sched.mem.pshare.Enable = "FALSE".

    MemAllowAutoScaleDown = "FALSE".

    As usual, save your vm and use at your own risk.  They have worked very well for me so far, but each installation is different.

  • get the node of SQL query file name

    Hi all
    I have a concurrent request that requires the name of file as input. For example, when I connect to oracle on our test instance, I use http://moon1.oando-plc.com:8000. For this program at the same time, the node file name appears as moon1.oando - plc.com.
    I need to use this argument to a PL/SQL procedure, that I write and I don't want to use any hard coding.
    Is it possible to get this data into an SQL statement.

    Thank you

    Hi - I assume that the page that you see printed is the alignment page.  This happens usually if the alignment process has not been made.  All you should have to do is take the printed alignment page and place it face down on the scan scanner glass and press.  Who must complete the alignment process and eliminate the page printing every time.  If you have problems, try following the procedure described in this document.

    Hope that helps.
