• Script to get the tree of data center

  Hi all

  I want to return a complete tree of data through script task centers.

  example:

  Datacenter1:

  CLUSTER1:

  Host1:

  Host2:

  VM1:

  VM2

  When I try to enumerate the data center to get this Cluster fails. Can anyone help on this?

  MyScript:

  var myDatacenters = VcPlugin.getAllDatacenters ();

  for each (i = 0; i < myDatacenters.length; i ++)

  {

  for each (mycluster in myDatacenters [i] .cluster)

  {

  System.Debug (cluster. (Name)

  for each (myHostSystem to myCluster.host)

  {

  System.Debug (myHostSystem.Name);

  for each (myVMs to myHostSystem.vm)

  {

  if(myVMs.isTemplate==true)

  {

  System.Debug (myVMs.Name);

  }

  }

  }

  for each (myDatastore to myCluster.datastore)

  {

  System.Debug (myDatastore.Name);

  mytotalDatastoreCapacity += myVcDatastore.summary.capacity;

  mytotalDatastoreFreeSpace += myVcDatastore.summary.freeSpace;

  Hi LuckyT,

  There is no attribute VcDatacenter.cluster, you could use VcPlugin.getAllClusterComputeResources () instead.

  But I found a code on my environment facing maybe also your needs:

  for each ( var myDatacenter in VcPlugin.allDatacenters ) {
    forEachChildEntity ( myDatacenter );
  }
  
  function forEachChildEntity( myChildEntity ) {
    switch ( true ) {
    case myChildEntity instanceof VcDatacenter:
    System.log( "Datacenter:" + myChildEntity.name );
    for each ( var myChildEntitysChildEntity in myChildEntity.hostFolder.childEntity ) {
    forEachChildEntity( myChildEntitysChildEntity );
    }
    for each ( var myChildEntitysChildEntity in myChildEntity.datastoreFolder.childEntity ) {
    forEachChildEntity( myChildEntitysChildEntity );
    }
    for each ( var myChildEntitysChildEntity in myChildEntity.networkFolder.childEntity ) {
    forEachChildEntity( myChildEntitysChildEntity );
    }
    for each ( var myChildEntitysChildEntity in myChildEntity.vmFolder.childEntity ) {
    forEachChildEntity( myChildEntitysChildEntity );
    }
    break;
    case myChildEntity instanceof VcFolder:
    System.log( "Folder:" + myChildEntity.name );
    for each ( var myChildEntitysChildEntity in myChildEntity.childEntity ) {
    forEachChildEntity( myChildEntitysChildEntity );
    }
    break;
    case myChildEntity instanceof VcClusterComputeResource:
    System.log( "Cluster:" + myChildEntity.name );
    for each ( var myChildEntitysChildEntity in myChildEntity.resourcePool.resourcePool ) {
    forEachChildEntity( myChildEntitysChildEntity );
    }
    break;

• Get access with ActiveX Data

  Dear readers,

  I tried to change the example Access_ActiveX.vi OR for playback of a single column instead of an entire table. (http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/3efedde43...cess_ActiveX.vi)
  I couldn't figuere how. I have a big enough database and it would be wrong to read all the information and then filter it. (waste of time)

  Thanks in advance

  Best regards

  If you have problems with a request for LabSQL, then this is a problem with the way you made the request. I don't know what you mean by cross-references. You talk about related tables? Do you know that you can view the SQL syntax in Access when you use the Query Wizard? I used LabSQL on very complex databases and can tell you from experience that it works on more than simple tables. Search a SQL tutorial and review internal and external joins.

• VM to data center report

  Hello

  I tried to write what I thought would be a simple report, but I have problems with the release of data in the report. Here is my script:

  $report = @)

  {foreach ($dc in Get-Data Center)

  {foreach ($vm in Get - VM)

  $row = "" | Select datacenter, vm

  $row.datacenter = $dc. Name

  $row.vm = $vm. Name

  $report += $row

  }

  }

  $report

  My problems is that when I run the report, the data center may or may not be on the line with the virtual machine. In other words, the data center listed may not be declared with precision with the VM in the same line. Anyone can point out what I am doing wrong or another way to tackle the virtual machine to the datacenter report?

  TIA,

  G

  You should limit your VM - Get only to the data center.

  Like this for example

  $report = @)

  {foreach ($dc in Get-Data Center)

  foreach ($vm in (Get-VM-location $dc)) {}

  $row = "" | Select datacenter, vm

  $row.datacenter = $dc. Name

  $row.vm = $vm. Name

  $report += $row

  }

  }

• Get full names extended data warehouses

  Hello

  I used PowerCLI 5.1

  I am able to get the name of the data store + its first respective measure in this way:

  Get-Datastore. where {$_.type - eq "VMFS"} | % {write-host $_.} Name $(_.ExtensionData.Info.Vmfs.Extent[0])$. DiskName}

  
  

  But it simply returns a canonical name, not the full name as DGC fiber... . (< canonical name >) or Local disk from VMware (< canonical name >) which is seen in the graphical interface for a data store selected under scopes.

  It is possible to retrieve the full name of the first measure for all stores of data in a liner uses just cmdlet Get - data store ? So if there are 10 stores data only 10 datastore + extensions display names pairs will be returned similar to the highest of the output of the command.

  It is possible to get a similar output as in list of devices/paths get HBA with Powercli for peripheral column, but without having to use the cmdlets Get-VMHost, Get-VMHostHba and Get-ScsiLun because I just need 1 to 1 output to the data store and her first litter?
  

  Thank you

  Rindr

  Try like this

  Get-Datastore | where {$_.type -eq "VMFS"} |
  Select Name,
      @{N="CanonicalName";E={($_.ExtensionData.Info.Vmfs.Extent[0]).DiskName}},
      @{N="DisplayName";E={(Get-ScsiLun -CanonicalName ($_.ExtensionData.Info.Vmfs.Extent[0]).DiskName -VMHost (Get-VIObjectByVIView $_.ExtensionData.Host[0].Key)).ExtensionData.DisplayName}}
  

• Getting the data center of VirtualMachine with Get-View information

  Hello

  Y at - it a faster way to get the name of data using Get-View and the viewtype VirtualMachine Center.

  I found the following:

  Get-View -ViewType VirtualMachine -filter @{ "name" = "mtl1fsit02" } | Select-Object -Property Name, 
  @{ Label = "GuestOSName"; Expression = { $_.summary.guest.guestfullname } }, 
  @{ Label = "Datacenter"; Expression = { (Get-view (Get-View (Get-view $_.parent).parent).Parent).name } }
  

  Thank you guys

  I think that the property calculated for the data center does not work in all situations.

  It assumes that your virtual machines are 3 levels down from the data center, which is not always the case.

  I personally use a loop, passing up through the parents, until he finds an object data center.

  something like that

  @{N = 'Center'; E = {}

  $parentObj = get-view $_. Parent

  While ($parentObj - isnot [VMware.Vim.Datacenter]({))

  $parentObj = get-view $parentObj.Parent

  }

  $parentObj.Name

  }

• the installation of itune + quick time I get a message that reads "no can access network location % data%\ app. »

  had 2 users on the computer with itunes on the desktop. main user itunes has stopped working, but the secondary users still worked. tried to update software with the latest version but get a message that reads "not access network location % data%\ app.

  This problem occurs because there is incorrect entries in the Shell folder of the user who is logged on to Microsoft Windows. When Windows Installer goes to the sale of Shell folder of the user who is logged on to the computer, Windows Installer cannot locate the correct entry. The solution is in http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/886549.

  The steps to correct this problem involve editing the Windows registry.  Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk.  I suggest that you first back up your registry as follows: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Back-up-the-registry way to create a point in http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/create-a-restore-point-for-windows-vistas-system-restore/ restoration system just to be on the safe side.

  Here are the steps to fix it.

  1. click on start, run, type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK.

  2. look for the following registry key:

  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell dossiers\

  3 remove the entries that show the path that is listed in the error message.

  886549 KB http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/886549: Regedit open again. In the left pane, click User Shell Folders, point to new, click expandable string value, type the value name that you want to restore (AppData) and then press ENTER. Right click on this value, click change, type the value in the value data for the value name box, and then click OK. The value data must be: % USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming. Change it if necessary.

  Step 8 KB 886549 suggests that you also check the values in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders. However, by fixing my problem, I had not to change values in the registry key.  If this does not work without the full procedure, follow ALL the steps in the referenced article.

  I hope this helps.  If not, post back with the results of what you tried.  Rear post anyway so we will know what happened.

• Gets an array of all the VcFolder objects in a data center?

  I have what I thought was a simple problem, but I can't understand how to accomplish it. I need to get a picture of each VcFolder object within a data center. What is the best way to achieve this? (This is in a multi-datacenter vcenter, which might be relevant).

  How can with bonus unrelated question, I get the user name of the current user who runs a workflow?

  Thank you!

  For the user name, check these script methods

  Server.getCurrentLdapUser()
  Server.getRunningUser()
  

  For a table of all VcFolder objects, something like the following should work

  var folders = [];
  
  function enumerate(folder) {
    if (folder == null) return;
  folders.push(folder);
    var children = folder.childEntity;
    for each (var child in children) {
      if (child instanceof VcFolder) {
         enumerate(child);
      }
    }
  }
  
  // assuming 'dc' is the datacenter object
  enumerate(dc.hostFolder);
  enumerate(dc.vmFolder);
  enumerate(dc.datastoreFolder);
  enumerate(dc.networkFolder);
  
  for each (var f in folders) {

• Data store 'datastore1' is in conflict with a store of data that exists in the data center which has the same URL (.), but is back different physical storage

  Hello

  I am new to vCenter Server, so you can assume that I'm missing something obvious.

  I installed vCenter Server 5.5 and one of the two hosts of re-usable ESXi 5.0.0 connected correctly. When I try to connect to the second 5.0.0 ESXi host, I get the error message:

  Data store 'datastore1' is in conflict with a store of data that exists in the data center which has the same URL (.), but is supported by different physical storage

  I Googled it and found what I think are the best answers that are successful, but they all seem pretty unique in their situation (they have a cluster, I do not have) etc. Some solutions involve disconnecting the store of data and reconstruction of things. I would not make things worse and can live without doubt with the help of vSphere client (and not the web client) until maybe I can start again with a 5.5 installation to a new host once I have back up everything from the host unconnectable. I closed all the VM on the host of the second. I have put in maintenance mode. I've renamed the data store, all to nothing does not.

  Thanks in advance

  The problem is that a whole army could not be connected to vCenter due to the problem, the solution involving disconnection of the host apply.

  Here is how I solved the problem:

  1 use the client vSphere client heavy, connect you to the host that cannot not be connected to vCenter Server.

  2. click on the host computer, and then click the Configuration tab.

  3. click on "storage".

  4. find the offending on the right data store.

  5. right click on the data store incriminated and click 'remove '.

  6. click on 'Add storage' in the top right.

  7. follow the steps to find this data not mounted store. I gave him a new name just to be sure, even if it's probably not necessary.

• Use get - view to get the host data center

  Hey guys,.

  I'm trying to shoot the host number of name and the version with get-view.

  I got to that, but I also want to get the data center that host belongs to.

  How can I get that advice please, don't have Googling has not helped a lot.

  Thank you

  RJ

  With the ExtensionData property we have access to the object VirtualMachine .

  Most of the managed objects vSphere has a property, called Parent, which points to the object that is connected to our object (the ' mother' in other words).

  The content of the Parent property is a MoRef (pointer). To get the real object, we use the cmdlet Get-view with this MoRef.

  We repeat this process in a while loop until the parent object is an object of data center .

  It's a bit like the structure of the tree in the vSphere Client.

  You start with the ESX (i) server and back up in the tree until you encounter a data center.

• How to get the data center moref moref VM in c# using

  Hi all

  Could someone tell how to get managedobjectreference of data center using the VM moref? or any other easy way is? If anyone has examples of code in c# please share with me?

  Thank you

  Vijaya

  You can get the data center in which the virtual machine resides by the following search:

  VM Moref-> Parent (vmFolder)

  Moref folder VM-> Parent (data center)

  Parent of the virtual computer object will always be the vmFolder and the vmFolder object will always be a data center.

  For more details on the model of article inventory of vSphere, take a look at this blog post - http://www.doublecloud.org/2010/03/vsphere-inventory-structure-deep-dive/

• Info from data store based on the location of the data center

  Hello

  I wrote a powershell script to get the amount of free space available in the stores of data butthis is too high

  EG - my eyes record data centre as

  X-x-x-x-x-x-x-x data warehouses

  Teir 3

  X-x-x-x-x-x-x-x data warehouses

  Can someone please

  Altogether.  The problem has to do with the Canal works and references that you are trying to use the output the way.  There are several ways to handle this, and I think that it can do what you want.

• example of Perl to get the host data center

  Hi all

  I try to get the data center for a specific host.  Now I can get the full list of data centers with:

  use strict;

  use warnings;

  use VMware::VIM2Runtime;

  use VMware::VILib;

  OPTS::parse();

  OPTS::Validate();

  Util::Connect();

  My $dcenter_views = Vim::find_entity_views (view_type = & gt; "Data center");

  {foreach (@$dcenter_views)}

  Print $_ - & gt; name. "," . $_ - & gt; name. ";;";

  }

  But I can't seem to find a way that works to get it to only a specific host, rather then a complete list.  Could someone please provide an example of how to do this?

  So I cleaned up your script a little, mostly some optimizations.  I used the construction in the occupied Palestinian territories: module to add a host name parameter to the script instead of using ARGV.  I changed it so it checks for a valid host view before you start your loop, no point in a loop in data centers, if your host name is not a valid real hostname in your inventory of VI.  Take a look at the label of the LOOP, I cleaned up.   You want to leave the loop after you find the data center.

  Just to show you how much faster my original script is logical, I wrote it also another version of my script using the Perl toolkit.  It was > 3.5s faster on my independent ESX host.  It is largely because find_entity_view() functions essentially look the whole game ManagedObject property reference, which is pretty intensive.  This gets quite slow in a larger environment and is compounded in a nested loop.  Usually, I try to avoid the use of find_entity_view() strongly in my scripts for this reason.

  Do not hesitate to work with whatever version you like best.  I think the good scripts to do the work.

  Find_entity_views() using nested:

  #!/usr/bin/perl -w
  
  use strict;
  use warnings;
  
  use VMware::VIRuntime;
