• VMware View | PowerCLI | How to get the number of virtual machine in a specific pool-ID

  Hello

  Generally, to get the number of VMS in a pool, I run this command:

  Get-pool | Select Pool_id, @{Name = "NumVM"; Expression = {($_ |)} (Get - DesktopVM). County}} | out-gridview

  But how can I list all the pools and then select the pool I want a county of?

  Maybe something like:

  Select 1 for accounts

  Select 2 for Marketing

  and then County VM just for this pool and immediate where at the output (Out-gridview or Export-CSV)

  Thanks, Julien

  Hi LucD

  I don't understand the line:

  1.. $pools. County | %{
  Write-Host "$_" $Pools [$_ - 1]. Name

  Why do we need the 1...

  Also is the same as get-get-resourcepool pool?

  Thanks, Julien

• How to count the number of virtual machines that are turned on.

  Try to learn this PowerShell stuff... oh what fun.

  Given that maintenance mode does not work unless you manually VMotion servers or stop them, I am trying to program a loop to make sure that all VM on the host is disabled.

  How can I get the value of "#PoweredOn" in this statement so that I can compare it? I want to leave the loop when the number of virtual machines under voltage = 0.

  function shutdownGuests()

  {

  Get-VMHost HOST1. Get - VM | Stop-VMGuest

  $num_powered_on = $null

  {}

  Write-Host $num_powered_on

  Write-Host $PoweredOn

  $num_powered_on = get-VMHost HOST1. Select-Object Name, @{Name = "#PoweredOn"; Expression = {($_ |)} Get - VM | Where-Object {$_.} PowerState - eq "Receptor"} | Measure-Object). {{Count}}

  Start-Sleep - seconds 10

  } While that ($num_powered_on & gt; 0)

  #Loop and check to see if all VMs are closed, and then return to main()

  }

  Try something like this:

  while (get-vmhost XXX | get-vm | where { $_.PowerState -ne "PoweredOff" }) {
      # Wait a while
  }
  

• Get the list of virtual machines, storage of data and VMDK / path by cluster

  Hi people,

  as I m new to such things, I m wondering if someone already has a few scripts work to gather a list of all virtual machines, its corresponding data store (s) and the path to the files VMDK (or at least the name of it) - I know that this part has already been resolved - found a couple of them ;-)

  But my problem is, I need this script drilled down by Cluster Edition or Datacenter Edition. As I said I m completely new for this CLI stuff and Don t have any idea how to solve this problem...

  See you soon

  Markus

  Luke, you are right. I should have tested.

  There is a downside to the ForEach command that I almost never use. Normally I use the Foreach-Object cmdlet and that works very well with pipeing the output to Export-CSV.

  Markus, you must use option 2 in this case.

• Get the number of virtual machines per ESX host

  I am able to get the account with the following script command, but what I want to do is to report a 0 if there is no virtual machines on a host.  Currently it just show nothing if there are no VMs.  Any suggestions?

  Get-VMHost | Sort - the name of the property. Select Name, @{N = "VMCount"; E={($_ | Get - VM). County}}

  You can add an IF in the part of the expression.

  Try it like this

  Get-VMHost | Sort-Object Name | Select Name,@{N="VM";E={if(($_ | Get-VM).Count){($_ | Get-VM).Count} else {0}}}

• Match each data store its Lun ID and the list of virtual machines in each data store

  Hello

  Can anyone help? I'm looking to create a report that will show each Monday name and store data to data warehouses, the list virtual machines belonging to the storage of data and the name of the VCenter at the top of the report. I tried several combinations but was more difficult to get the Monday. Any help appreciated gratefully.

  Thank you

  If you use only LUNS is an easy way to get the canonical name:

  Get-datastore. {Select-Object Name,@{Name="CanonicalName"; expression = {$_.extensiondata.info.vmfs.extent.diskname}}

  I don't understand your requirement regarding the name vCenter, but for everything else

  Get-datastore. foreach {($MyDatastore = $_)} | Get - vm | Select-Object @{Name="Datastore";expression={$MyDatastore}},@{Name="CanonicalName";expression={$MyDatastore.extensiondata.info.vmfs.extent.diskname}},Name

• Report on the number of virtual machines by datastore

  Hello

  I use vFoglight 6.6.2. I try to have a report generated every week that contains the number of virtual machines running in the data store. But I don't know how to create a table of edge/report for these details.

  request for expert assistance.

  The following query gives you so all virtual machines on the specified data store

  Using the following mandatory input parameters:

  {VMWDatastore}: type foglight - 5:VMWDatastore

  Select objects of type Machine virtual VMware in parameter {VMWDatastore}

  root of {VMWDatastore} / virtualCenter/virtualMachineCollection/virtualMachines

  where:

  ({VMWDatastore} to /datastores and)

  (/ vmState/current/value is equal to "receiving")

  Like query UI setup will allow you to use it as a dashboard of entry.

  Try around with the request and let me know if this help.

• How one move the templates of virtual machine from one host to another host in the cluster even

  Hello

  Can you get it someone please let me know how to move the templates of virtual machine from one host to another host in the cluster even?

  Thank you

  James

  Welcome to the forums!

  Convert it to a virtual machine (right click on guest and choose the appropriateoption), move it through the migration feature (right-click Guest, and then choose "Migrate") and convert into a model (right click on guest again and choose to convert to a template).

  If you found this information useful, please consider awarding points to 'Correct' or 'Useful' responses Thank you!!

• What is the advantage to affect multiple virtual machines in a data store?

  Hello

  Quite a question stupid and basic, but I can't answer . What is the advantage of having multiple virtual machines in a store of VMFS data instead of having each VM in another VMFS data store? (eg. 3 VMs in 1 data store or 3 data warehouses and each virtual machine in one of them). I can only think about the ease of management for storage administrator because it creates only a single large LUN.
  
  Thank you

  By allowing multiple virtual machines in a data store, you can run more than 256 virtual machines in a DRS cluster.

  As a host has a limit of 256 scsi identification numbers, which means that it accesses no more than 255 LUNS shared. 1 scsi ID is used for local storage.

  In a DRS cluster as each host must be mapped to the same data warehouses to ensure that virtual machines can be moved on the cluster and run on any of the hosts.

  Now in my life as an architect VMware PSO I saw that a lot of virtual machines that require a single data store. The main reason to isolate a virtual machine on a data store must provide sufficient i/o performance. This can be achieved with other solutions than to isolate a virtual machine on a data store. Having a properly architected storage subsystem is crucial, vSphere can get out of a very large number of the IOPS / s. With technologies such as SIOC and DRS for storage, you can check that the virtual machines receive IO performance according to the needs.

• Migration of storage when the virtual machine has several data stores

  How can I (or can I) use Storage vMotion on ESX4.0 U1 to migrate part of a virtual computer to a new data store?  I have a virtual machine with 5 data stores attached and move 1 data warehouses to a LUN of larger size.  What is the best method?

  On the "Select the data store" window, click on the button "Advanced". You can specify the location of each VMDK and configuration files.
