• Need help updated the VMX file on several Virtual Machine

  All,

  Can anyone help with a problem I'm having?  Here is a brief explanation of what is happening and what we need to solve.

  Recently we found out that we need to add a line in the file VMX of several virtual machines.  In the past, I was able to do this, but would have cold start the virtual machine for the changes to take effect.  Starts cold won't be a problem, because we can program it.

  However, no one knows a way to add this line in the file VMX virtual machines in a cluster.

  Here's the line I need added:

  Devices.hotplug = "false".

  Here is a script that was used earlier (esx 3.0 days) to keep the VM tools updated on reboot.  At this point, if the virtual machine has been turned on, this change could not do through the UI.  However, this script worked to update the .vmx file and then we have cold reboots for the changes to take effect.

  Get-viserver - < Server > - < user > - < password >

  $viview = get-Cluster-name NOMCLUSTER | Get - VM | foreach-object {get-view ($_.ID)}
  $viview | {foreach-object
  $vmConfigSpec = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec
  $vmConfigSpec.Tools = new-Object VMware.Vim.ToolsConfigInfo
  $vmConfigSpec.Tools.afterPowerOn = 'True '.
  $vmConfigSpec.Tools.afterResume = 'True '.
  $vmConfigSpec.Tools.beforeGuestStandby = 'True '.
  $vmConfigSpec.Tools.beforeGuestShutdown = 'True '.
  $vmConfigSpec.Tools.ToolsUpgradePolicy = "UpgradeAtPowerCycle".
  $_. ReconfigVM ($vmConfigSpec)
  }

  The exact script can be found in Disable HotPlug

• I need a way to search search all the .vmx files

  I have a problem with vMotions in vCenter 6.0 I migrant to ESXi 5.5 with standard switches to a vCenter 6.0 with distributive switches.  For your information, here is the process.

  (1) unplug the host to vCEnter 5.5

  (2) add a host to vCenter 6.0

  (3) migration of ESXI 5.5 to 6.0 ESXi host with the installation of a standard switch.

  4) migrate to 6.0 with standard switch ESXi ESXi 6.0 with D-switch.

  Full migration.  The reason for the double jump is that esxi 55 can't change host and network to a switch-d so I have to get to ESXi 6.0 first.

  It all works very well, but for some reason, the .vmx file doesn't change not the port group. She is always present the standard switch. How ever VMS are on the rise and connected, the web client shows the port of switch-D group.  But when I do a vMotion it changes again in the d switch and the VM crashes.

  I have a case open with VMware to solve this, but I need to get the other VMS migrate without failure.

  The explanation may have been a bit long-winded, but here's what I need.

  I'm OK with PowerCLI but it is a bit outside my experience.  Can we create a script for watching all the ethernet ports in the .vmx for all virtual machines files see what port on their group name?

  Thanks for any help

  Tree!

  Try like this

  Get - VM | Select Name,

  @{N = "PG"; E = {(Get-NetworkAdapter-VM $_ |)} {(Sélectionnez-ExpandProperty NetworkName) - join ' |'}}

• By script of the vmx file changes?

  I have a number of existing VMs that I want to add some advanced configuration settings. Instead of using the GUI to add the values, I would like to automate the process. My plan is to write a script that turns off the virtual machine and adds the new values (isolation.tools.x or isolation.device.x) in the vmx files. Is - this safe/advisable to do so via a script? Someone at - it an example of existing script, they would be willing to share?

  If you want to do with just the VI Toolkit itself, then you will need to do something like this

  $vm = get - View (Get - VM NameofVMtoUpdate) USER.USER
  $vmConfigSpec = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec
  $vmConfigSpec.extraconfig = new-Object VMware.Vim.optionvalue
  $vmConfigSpec.extraconfig [0]. "Key ="lefthandsideofentry"
  $vmConfigSpec.extraconfig [0]. ' Value ='rigthhandsideofentry + '.
  $vm. ReconfigVM ($vmConfigSpec)

  Where

  • NameofVMtoUpdate is the name of the virtual machine that you want to update (from the vCenter inventory)

  • lefthandsideofentry is the entrance of advanced configuration, that you want to set

  • rigthhandsideofentry is the value of the advanced configuration entry

  As an alternative some of these people who hang out on the VI Toolkit region have implemented a set of Powershell extensions for the VI toolkit available from CodePlex (http://www.codeplex.com/vitoolkitextensions). Game-TkeVmx will allow you to set values (essentially the same code as above just rolled into a function to keep your code cleaner)

• Coloration of the code for the PHP files using CSS

  Coloration of the code for the PHP files using CSS
  

  The Situation:

  It is possible to mix PHP and CSS so that you create a PHP file and it is served to the user in a CSS file. It works just like writing a normal PHP file which is then processed and used in HTML. To do this, you create a PHP file and at the top of the file, you add the following line of code:

  <?php header("Content-type: text/css"); ?>

  This line tells the browser that the file is CSS instead of HTML. Fantastic.

  Here is a link to a more detailed article on the subject: http://www.barelyfitz.com/projects/csscolor/

  The problem:

  The problem is that when I create a PHP file in Dreamweaver code colors in the document like PHP for PHP and HTML to CSS code code because it still thinks the document is supposed to be a HTML document. Is there a way to change the style of this situation? I find that code coloring to normal CSS files is really useful and would like to be there instead of just black text.

  Other information:
  

  I already have this submitted a feature request to Adobe, but I never heard back. Does anyone know how to do this now?

  I would really like to see the code coloring to adapt to the content type of the file, when the file is PHP. So if no content type is specified, values by default in html format, but when it's CSS, code coloring so a coloration of the different code is used. It could also adapt to files JS, XML files, the works. But really, I just want to add the PHP/CSS code coloring.

  I'm certainly not an expert, and this is my first time looking at the file,

  but it looks like the section.

  "ID ="CSS"doctypes ="CSS"priority '50' = > ' see the style css and

  the and refer to where the design must

  be applied. If that is correct then the code you provided should style

  It all starts after the

  and ending with another php code? It should be then that a

  tag additional php to be present in the document of 'close' the

  blowdry.

  And the continuation of this line of thinking, I have just that in the (php-> css)

  file. I placed my code. Then

  After the CSS, I placed another block of php: and it works!

  The CSS is styling just like should the CSS.

  Logically, you need that, and it seems to work ok for me without it. If Yes, you can change "" to be more explicit and less impact for PHP parsing, such as ' /DW/ '.

  Haha, Unfortunantely, PHP is more the same color scheme. He

  went from normal red blends what the html code looks like

  scheme (blue with quotations from green text). Fortunantely this configuration is far

  more convenient than the previous color coding!

  All subsequent PHP Directives are coloring properly for me - it's just the first one that triggers the coloration (e.g. ) is not. What do you see?

  If, therefore, in the XML file you added in CodeColoring.xml, you can change:

  scheme = "outerTag.

  is similar to the colouring of the PHP Directive:

  scheme = "customText" id = "CodeColor_PHPScriptBlock".

  This causes the entire PHP directive is red color - not optimal, but a little better.

  HTH,

• Question about the .vmx file created on ESXi

  I'm trying to automate the creation of a virtual machine and take a snapshot. I use the vSphere SDK Perl.

  The problem I faced is if I create a virtual machine called TestVM, the .vmx file created on the ESXi is TestVM_1.vmx instead of TestVM.vmx due to which my snapshot creation fails.

  I faced the same problem, if I manually create the virtual computer. If there is no other computer virtual with the same name.

  A restart of the server ESXi fixed the problem.

• How to get VM to the .vmx file path when you have the VM name?

  Hi all

  I use the latest version of VIX API to power on virtual machines on an ESX Server. I work with c# in Visual Studio 2012 and currently I have power on the virtual machine by using the following code:

  VMWareVirtualMachine virtualClientMachine = host. Open (vmMachinePath, 2100);

  While this works, I think it is better to be able to turn on the virtual machine when you know the name of the virtual machine and not the path. So, how can I get the path to the VM to the vmx file when I know the name of the virtual machine? For example, if my VM on the ESX Server is called WIN7GERMAN, how I can get the path and pass this to the host. Opening function?

  Thanks for any help or code.

  John

  VM names are not unique, that's why it is not supported.

  You can use VixHost_FindItems() and locate the VIX_PROPERTY_FOUND_ITEM_NAME property without papers and use the associated VIX_PROPERTY_FOUND_ITEM_LOCATION to get the value to pass to VixHost_OpenVM().  You have to deal with duplicate however names

• How can I register all of the VMX files found in a list of stores of data with new names

  Hello-

  I'm trying to find a way to search through a given list of data and each discover a warehouse. VMX file, add this machine in the inventory I want to prepend the name of the machine as something different. That is to say, instead of "Machine1", I wish it were registetred as "auto-Computer1.  So, imagine I have an empty data center with 4 warehouses of data stored in a table $arrDatastoreToInclude.  I want to loop through each of these data stores and add all the VMX files I found back in the inventory.

  I know that I can use the following to get data warehouses I want:

  $dsindatacenter = get-data center $DataCenterName | Get-Datastore? | {$arrDatastoreToInclude - contains $_.} Name}

  But I have no idea how to analyze these data stores for the VMX files and what command to add them in the inventory.  Can anyone help?

  Try the following, it is based on the script of the position that Robert mentioned.

  You will need to provide a file (in $VMFolder) where unregistered virtual machines will be stored.

  The Set-VM cmdlet will take care of the rename.

  $DatacenterName = "MyDatacenter" $arrDatastoreToInclude = "DS1","DS2","DS3","DS4"
  
  $dc = Get-DataCenter $DataCenterName $dsindatacenter =  Get-Datastore -Datacenter $dc | ?{$arrDatastoreToInclude -contains $_.Name}
  
  $VMFolder = "MyFolder"
  $ESXHost = Get-VMHost -Location $dc | select -First 1
  foreach($Datastore in $dsindatacenter) {
      # Collect .vmx paths of registered VMs on the datastore     $registered = @{}
      Get-VM -Datastore $Datastore | %{$_.Extensiondata.LayoutEx.File | where {$_.Name -like "*.vmx"} | %{$registered.Add($_.Name,$true)}}
  
     # Set up Search for .VMX Files in Datastore    New-PSDrive -Name TgtDS -Location $Datastore -PSProvider VimDatastore -Root '\' | Out-Null    $unregistered = @(Get-ChildItem -Path TgtDS: -Recurse |         where {$_.FolderPath -notmatch ".snapshot" -and $_.Name -like "*.vmx" -and !$registered.ContainsKey($_.Name)})
      Remove-PSDrive -Name TgtDS
     #Register all .vmx Files as VMs on the datastore   foreach($VMXFile in $unregistered) {
          New-VM -VMFilePath $VMXFile.DatastoreFullPath -VMHost $ESXHost -Location $VMFolder |
          Set-VM -Name ("Auto-" + $_.Name)
     }
  }
  

  Unregistered virtual machines will be saved with Displayname that is present in the VMX file.

  If this would cause a conflict with VM already registered, you can use the Name of the cmdlet New-VM parameter

• How do the .vmx file

  How do the .vmx file to enter data for the serial ports?

  Open the file with Notepad (or your favorite text editor) upward, NOT working.

• Information in the VMX file reader

  Is virtual and RDM disk information saved in the VMX file?  Type the location of the disk (virtual disk or Raw Device Mapping) file, disk, node mode and peripheral ramdisk (independent, persistent or not persistent) and compatibility (physical or virtual) mode.  I only seem to be able to find the disc mode and part, part of which is in a hexadecimal format.

  Thank you

  gwok01,

  The information in the Client VI if manually browse you your VM (s) and look at its disk configurations, you can tell whether a RDM (physical/virtual), as well as other attributes. This information is stored within each ESX/ESXi host and I am just extract VM (s) that contain a ROW (s) and printing gives information by using vimsh.

  I remember not casual if this information is also stored in vCenter, if hosts are joined, but you may also be able to interrogate the VMDB if you use vCenter.

• Add code to the jsxbin script?

  Hi all

  I use a jsxbin script that I've created, I want to add more code after the original code, to make it work in a single file.

  I don't think this is possible, but I just want to ask the assistants on this forum for sure!

  Concerning

  greenrookie

  In fact you kind of, sort of, can:

  1. Open the jsxbin inside your favorite text editor.
  2. Remove all line breaks, and then copy the resulting long string (should be something like: "@JSXBIN @[email protected]@MyBbyBn...") »
  3. Create a new jsx file and on the first line, add:
     app.doScript ("@JSXBIN @[email protected]@MyBbyBn..."); This long chain
  4. Since the second line, add your script features

• Add code to the PayPal button Flash

  I want to use my own button .swf for PayPal payments with a 'hidden' format, but when you add the generated code for the PayPal site on my html page, only a red X and the alt text shows PayPal where the button should be. I changed all the Active X controls to activate.

  Whenever I have contact PayPal I get a different answer. The last of them was that I should add a 'static' image, but I really want to use my own button.

  I would find a way to paste the PayPal code in my script of action buttons and then I can't stick the Flash button for html, but do not know how to handle that because the only code generated by PayPal is a 'form' in html format. I am also add text fields and guess that's why I don't get a code generated by email from PayPal that I get if I do not add text fields.

  Any ideas how I can convert the code generated by PayPal at my action script are welcome. I have about 150 buttons to add!

  This is my link: http://www.astondenwoodjewellery.co.uk/Jewellery%20html/Gold%20Rings/GR02_button_test.htm
