Get virtual machines in a subnet

Similar Questions

• Virtual machines and remote subnets

  
  We have a minimal implementation of VMware vSphere 5.5 with 3 guests and only a few virtual machines to date.  A virtual host is a Windows 2008 R2 server.  All customers of the local subnet can ping and connect with this virtual machine to Windows 7 workstations and other physical servers.  However, any host on any of the other subnets on our WAN can communicate or ping the computer virtual with guest OS of Windows 2008 R2.  Each office is connected by physical routers.  Each physical host can ping each other fine - on each LAN or over the WAN.  There is no virtual machines or ESX hosts on any other subnets.  The ESX hosts are on the local subnet. Yet once again, I cannot ping from a remote subnet on the virtual computer or vice versa, but the hosts on the local subnet can ping both ways with no problems.  I have to create virtual routers to connect to these other physical subnets?  It seems that it would be something very easy but I'm new to VMware.  I'll be very grateful to anyone who can get me pointed in the right direction.

  Thanks in advance,

  Sam

  It should work without problems. Please check network settings of the virtual machine for the subnet mask and the default gateway address are configured correctly, i.e. without typos.

• VCO get virtual machines by name never ends

  Hello

  I have a problem, when I run the virtual machines by name get, nothing is returned and it never ends. I have another script that tries to do:

  VcPlugin.getAllClusterComputeResouces)

  and it ends never either. I did successfully before but no it does not, it is as if something is wrong with the vCenter or something. If I log in the vCenter I can look up and see all the clusters and virtual machines, but I can't ask him to the VCO.

  Any ideas on this would be useful.

  Thank you

  The issue was the vCenter for this device VRO had run into issues and querying the vCenter did not work from the VRO device. After restarting the device of VRO polling was very good.

• Get the VM from the list of virtual machines serial number?

  Property.  I have been breaking my head against that for hours and finally gave up and ask me for help.  I have this function below that I found at http://www.peppercrew.nl/index.php/2011/04/get-virtual-machine-bios-serial-number/.

  It works fantastic for an individual VM, however I have a list of 250 VMs that I need this information, because our management software requires a unique serial number for each virtual computer.

  I tried to edit the script to import from a .txt file and information through a foreach loop and am just not having any success.  What I am doing wrong?

  function Get-VMSerial{
  
  $VMList = Get-Content C:\VMList.txt    foreach ($VM in $VMList){
          $VirtualMachine = Get-VM $vm.name
  
      param([VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Impl.V1.Inventory.VirtualMachineImpl]$VirtualMachine)
   
      $s = ($VirtualMachine.ExtensionData.Config.Uuid).Replace("-", "")
      $Uuid = "VMware-"    for ($i = 0; $i -lt $s.Length; $i += 2)
      {
          $Uuid += ("{0:x2}" -f [byte]("0x" + $s.Substring($i, 2)))
          if ($Uuid.Length -eq 30) { $Uuid += "-" } else { $Uuid += " " }
      }
   
      Write-Output $Uuid.TrimEnd()}
  
  
  
  }

  How to watch your CSV?

  You have a header of column in there? Something like

  Name

  VM1

  VM2

  In this case, you can change the last line

  Get-VM (Import-CSV C:\VMList.csv | Select -ExpandProperty Name) | Select Name,BIOSNumber

• Several virtual machines and Get-OSCustomizationNicMapping (new)

  Hey guys,.

  I set up a script to create multiple virtual machines from a csv list. I know it has been done before, but I learn more when I work through it myself.

  I've implemented the script below, what provisions the VM very well, but fails to Get-OSCustomizationNicMapping.

  Here's the script:

  Import-CSV "d:\vmlist.csv" | {ForEach-Object
  New-VM-name $_. Name - model 'Microsoft Windows 2003 R2 Standard x 86' - VMHost $_. VMHost '
  -Map $_. Location - Datastore $_. Data store - thin diskstorageformat '

  | Get-OSCustomizationNicMapping | Game-OSCustomizationNicMapping '
  -IPAddress $_. IP subnet mask-$_. Subnet mask - DefaultGateway $_. DefaultGateway '
  DNS-$_. DNS
  }

  and the error I get:

  Get-OSCustomizationNicMapping: the input object cannot be bound to any parameters
  ERS of the command either because the command doesn't take pipeline input or
  the entry and its properties do not match any parameters that accept entries of pipeline.
  Online: 5 tank: 36

  Maybe I'm misunderstanding the use of Get-OSCustomizationNicMapping.

  Thanks for your help,

  Grant

  Hey Grant,

  The cause of the problem is that you are piping the output of Get-OSCustomizationNicMapping New - VM (i.e. VirtualMachine). You must pass an OSCustomizationSpec to the cmdlet. You must update the nic of the customization specification mapping before the spec as a parameter in New - VM. Here is an example:

  Get-OSCustomizationSpec-name 'Microsoft Windows 2003 R2 Standard x 86 | Get-OSCustomizationNicMapping | Game-OSCustomizationNicMapping - IPAddress $_. IP subnet mask-$_. Subnet mask - DefaultGateway $_. DefaultGateway - DNS $_. DNS

  New-VM-name $_. Name - model 'Microsoft Windows 2003 R2 Standard x 86' - VMHost $_. Location-VMHost $_. Location - Datastore $_. Data store - slim - diskstorageformat OSCustomizationSpec 'Microsoft Windows 2003 R2 Standard x 86 '.

• Get use of the resources of all virtual machines in a cluster

  Hello

  I have developed a measure of capacity management report that collects all the use of the resources of the virtual machines in a datacenter. The function that collects it looks like this:

  def hostMemoryConsumed =]

  def memoryConsumed = 0.0f

  def memoryGranted = 0.0f

  VMs. each() {}

  VM->

  try {}

  memoryConsumed += vm.host.memory.consumed.current.average / 1024.0f<----- how="" to="" do="" this="" to="" get="" from="">

  memoryGranted += vm.host.memory.capacity.current.average / 1024.0f

  }

  {} catch (NullPointerException e)

  }

  VMS is a function of type parameter VMS VMW

  The works above for virtual machines in the data center, but I need it to be after cluster. I can find a cluster of virtual machines, but I'm having trouble with referring to specific values for example consumed memory and capacity.

  If I change the type parameter: VMW Cluster how the metric reference would look like (see the try {})?

  I don't think that a query will help me.

  Thanks in advance

  Erik Alm

  If you want to do for a cluster, you can just get the list of virtual machines in a cluster of first and passing in your script.  If you have a function for a VMWCluster you can add a parameter for "vmwCluster" that is underneath and it should give you a table (topologyObjects) that has all the virtual machines in the cluster.

  QS = server.get ("QueryService") / / query Service

  tquery = qs.createStatement("!) (' VMWVirtualMachine where esxServer.parent.name = "+" ' "+ vmwCluster +" "" ") .setQueryTopologyObjects (true);

  topologyObjects = qs.executeStatement (tquery) .getTopologyObjects)

• Can't get Windows 7 to turn on the Virtual Machine

  I bought a Mac a few months and installed VMWare Fusion to run some software that I could not for Mac.  I bought Windows 7 and activated successfully.  After using VMWare Fusion for a while, I discovered that I hated and has decided to move to Parallels instead.  Because my VMWare Fusion virtual machine contains a program that I use for my business, I wanted to make sure everything was working smoothly on my Parallels before I have uninstall VMWare.   Part of the installation process of Parallels, is that the program will import everything that was in the other virtual machine, I didn't so not re - install anything.  I want to activate Windows 7 in parallel but I get the error 0xc004c008 code; which I suppose is because this activation code is already used on the install on my other virtual machine.  I would like to call Microsoft and ask, but it seems that there is a fee of $59.00 to email, phone or chat.  #microsoftripoff

  Any advice?

  Call Microsoft use the manual phone Activation

  If you have trouble activating Windows 7 you can call Microsoft to activate it by following these steps:
  1. with the operation of Windows, click Start, then in the search box type: slui.exe 4
  2. press enter on your keyboard
  3. Select your country.
  4. Select the telephone activation option, then dial the given number and hold for a real person.

• I get an error "the disk hard virtual parent is in a saved state. Discard the saved state or stop the virtual machine and try again. "during the installation of XP mode.

  I have Win7 Pro SP1 x 64.  I downloaded WindowsXPMode_en - us.exe (from Microsoft downloads) and run it.  The installation seems to work OK (I've specified a different location for the parent virtual hard disk file).  Then, installation happening and I provide the information requested (name of user and password for the XP Mode), updates Windows and OK to the issue of sharing.  The installation program then reports the following error:

  The disk hard virtual parent is in a saved state.  Discard the saved state or stop the virtual machine and try again.

  I get the error even if I try manually configure XP Mode (use the Setup Wizard).  I downloaded the installer XPMode (3 times) and reinstalled several times, always with the same result.  If it helps, I can't locate anywhere .vsv file.

  Any idea what's going on?

  Hi Sergio,

  Here is an example of code (the input parameter is type virtual machine vm ):

  var devices = vm.config.hardware.device;
  for each (controller in devices) {
    var is_scsi = controller instanceof VcVirtualBusLogicController || controller instanceof VcVirtualLsiLogicController
         || controller instanceof VcParaVirtualSCSIController || controller instanceof VcVirtualLsiLogicSASController;
    if (!is_scsi) {
      continue;
    }
    var controller_label = controller.deviceInfo.label;
    System.log("SCSI controller found: " + controller_label);
    for each (device in devices) {
      if (device.controllerKey == controller.key) {
        var scsi_id = controller.busNumber + ":" + device.unitNumber;
        System.log("    device found:  '" + device.deviceInfo.label + "'  'SCSI (" + scsi_id + ")'");
      }
    }
  }
  

  SCSI ID is a combination of the number of buses of the controller and unit of the device number.

• How can I get the version of VMware to virtual machines with powercli officer?

  How can I get the version of VMware View Agent running on a virtual machine with powercli or view Powercli?

  As much as I know there is no cmdlet PowerCLI for this, but you can use the Invoke-VMScript cmdlet and interrogate the Win32_Product class.

  By running the following. You can add a Where clause to return only the Agent of the view

  Get-WmiObject-class Win32_Product | Select the name, Version

• Cannot start virtual machines on Windows - get "internal error."

  After restarting my computer, all the virtual machines in workstation that allows you to start now will no longer start.  Currently to get the super useless error message: "Internal error." which is of course totally shameful.

  I uninstalled and reinstalled, tried searching for "cpuidHash" in my registry to reset, which curiously is not there as part of the services, I tried to remove / delete the VMEM and even tried to create a new VM and start it without an operating system and all attempts to start no VM result in the same message.  Also get the same error when trying to boot from VMware Player.

  Key in the log error can be: "E105: PANIC: CHECK bora\vmcore\vmx\main\timeTracker_user.c:238 bugNr = 148722 '.

  Any help on how to get VMware software to service is appreciated - thanks in advance!

  Thank you Darius - had already tried.  It turns out that this specific response of spoonalious solved my problem.  Not sure what caused the problem in the 1st place, to my knowledge, nothing had changed, but after completing these steps and restart services the issue was resolved after much work.  VMware software are extremely fragile and breaks easily it seems:

  New host PC - VM will start is more (internal error - VMWare Workstation 11)

  Thanks to Darius and spoonalious for the position of solution!
