Get-VMStartPolicy receives an error: 'value required 'systemDefault' is not found.

I'm trying to get all the virtual machine to a VMHost, who 'None' StartAction.

[ESX Server > > Configuration tab > > Machine virtual Startup / Shutdown]

I used the following command:

Get-VMStartPolicy - VMHost < hostname >. Select the virtual machine, StartAction | Where {$_.} StartAction - eq 'None'}

My problem is now, we have about 20 ESX host and for 17 of them, the command runs.

For 3 of them, I got the following error:

Get-VMStartPolicy: 07.05.2015 11:51:33 Get-VMStartPolicy asked "systemDefault" value was not found.

On line: 1 char: 1

+ CategoryInfo: NotSpecified: (:)) [Get-VMStartPolicy], VimException)

+ FullyQualifiedErrorId: Core_BaseCmdlet_UnknownError, VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Cmdlets.Commands.Host.GetVMStartPolicy

In addition, I tried the following command:

Get-VMStartPolicy - VMHost < HOST name >

An example of a successful ESX Server:

Get-VMStartPolicy - VMHost "Server1."

StartAction StartDelay StartOrder VM

VM1 PowerOn 120 (pop.) 1

VM2                              PowerOn 120 (pop.) 2

An example of a failure of ESX Server:

Get-VMStartPolicy - VMHost "Server2."

Get-VMStartPolicy: 07.05.2015 12:10:51 value Get-VMStartPolicy asked 'systemDefault' was not found.

Other commands such as "Get-VMHostAdvancedConfiguration - VMHost 'gbczbesx01.company.internal' work properly for the affected servers."

Can someone tell me what the above error messages means?

And why this command fails for some hosts?

Thank you.

[I am using this command in a powershell script]

I got the following response from VMware Support:

"There is an internal PR opened with genius for that matter but I see that it has not been updated since last year. Engineering do not have priority in this issue because of the availability of a workaround. (manually change the lowercase S to uppercase) it is unlikely that I'll have an answer to your questions anytime soon. I ask questions to them and tied the case to PR. As soon as I have no information for you, I leave you, you know. I don't expect that it may take some time because a fix for this will have to be coded in a future release. »

The following workaround may correct the above error message:

Edit the VMAutoStart.xml (in/etc/vmware/hostd) and look for entries "systemDefault" ("s" tiny) and replace it with SystemDefault (capital "S").

  • The required search key not found in any active launch context__

    I installed Windows XP Professional w/SP3 and now only has access to 4-bit color so everything is huge.  IE is on V6 and when I try to download v8 I get the same error after knocking entered by download.  The required search key not found in any active activation context

    Also, in Control Panel, add/remove programs, Windows Internet is not an option to remove.  And if I can't go to any other Web site, unless it is set as my homepage, how do I install anything at all?

  • Script to add a domain user to the local Administrators group raises the error "the network path is not found."

    I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 domain and a Windows XP Pro workstation that has been attached to the domain and then disconnected. I am trying to create a VBS script to add a domain user to the local Administrators group.

    I log on my computer as a local administrator and run the following script:

    Dim oNetwork: Set oNetwork = WScript.CreateObject ("WScript.Network")
    StrPC Dim: strPC = oNetwork.ComputerName
    Dim OGroup: Set oGroup = GetObject ("WinNT: / /" & strPC & "/ directors")
    Dim OUser: Set oUser = GetObject ("WinNT://domainname/username")
    oGroup.Add (oUser.ADsPath)

    This script returns the error "the network path is not found."

    However, I am able to go into control panel > user accounts > enter the user name and the domain name > click Next... > choose the administrators of the 'other' group and the user name will be added to the local Admin group.

    The same script runs without error if it is launched after logon on the workstation with a domain administrator account.

    How can I get my script runs without error, when you are logged into the workstation as a local administrator?

    Best regards, Andy

    The code that I used came from here. If the syntax of the Add method is passed to oUser.ADsPAth to "WinNT: / /" & domainname & "/" & username, the script works correctly.

    Therefore, the modified script:

    Dim oNetwork: Set oNetwork = WScript.CreateObject ("WScript.Network")
    StrPC Dim: strPC = oNetwork.ComputerName
    Dim OGroup: Set oGroup = GetObject ("WinNT: / /" & strPC & "/ directors")
    Dim strUser: strUser = "WinNT://domainname/username."
    oGroup.Add strUser

  • I get thid message RUNDLL C;\windows\momowsi.dll is not found.

    original title: Please help!

    I get thid message RUNDLL C;\windows\momowsi.dll is not found.

    When a Google search for a results file name in no hits or suspicious hits, the answer is usually that the file in question is linked to the malicious software and your anti-malware application has deleted or quarantined file, but left to the Windows registry entry that tries to start the malicious software when you start your computer.

    First of all, download, install, update and run both of these free analysis tools:
    MalwareBytes AntiMalware
    SUPERAntiSpyware

    Do not run the scans at the same time.  They can take some time, so start an and then go for a non computer chore for awhile.

    If the scans does not solve the problem (and they can't, because the actual malware file has already been processed), then download and run Autoruns.  Click on the "Connection" tab and look in the column 'Image path' for the dll named in your error message.  If it is not displayed in the connection tab, click the "all" tab and use the file > search tool.  A characteristic of the search of Autoruns tool is that you must move the selection under the element line "found" before you "Find Next."

    Once you find the line with the file in question, either "delete" or (if you want to be safer) uncheck the box.  The latter prevents the line running, but you can reactivate it later by removing the check mark.

  • Error starting FreeLoader: Module 'KxmlLib' not found.

    The message "Error Starting FreeLoader: Module"KxmlLib"not found." what do I get when I try to run my application on a BB device.  In the Simulator, it does very well.    KxmlLib is a library to the library (preverified) BlackBerry project kXML 2 . The KxmlLib project is a project of the library without the source, just the pre-audit jar files and in the KxmlLib properties > Java Build Path > libraries a pre-audit jar and Properties KxmlLib > Java Build Path > order and export has the JAR checked for export.  I guess it's okay.

    After that it got a little hairy, I had to the the KxmlLib of the project a dependency of my application of FreeLoader project, run it on the simular to produce the KxmlLib JAR in the deliverables of the project KxmlLIB directory.  I removed the dependency of the project KxmlLib , copied from the KxmlLib.jar in the project space of the FreeLoader , right click on it project and added to the build path.

    Applications of freeLoader compiles and runs without any error of security on the Simulator.  When I try to package and run it on the device of BB, it fails.   Clues?  I browsed this forum before I asked - I solved all my other problems during development with the help of this community and the RIM fanastic.  Thank you very much!

    You will find that there is a cod associated with your pot of KxmlLib.  There is no end to your device unless you deliberately include in your distribution.  You may be signed too.
