Help to install vSphere CLI on Linux 64-bit

• What are the steps in vSphere CLI?

  I downloaded and installed vSphere CLI but I get the following error

  'Connect' is not recognized as internal or external, command an executable program or batch file.

  The main difference between the vSphere CLI and PowerCLI is that vSphere CLI is Perl based and PowerCLI is based on PowerShell. Both are great tools and can be used for the automation of your vSphere environment. Which tool is best for you depends on your experience with Perl or PowerShell.

  You can also combine these two tools I described in my blog How to run scripts perl CLI of PowerCLI VMware vSphere.

• Problems installing vSphere SDK

  Hello, I have a really hard time getting the SDK VMSphere to work under Windows and I have no installation using the supplied VMware-VIPERL - 4.0.0 - 161974.exe error from the VMWARE page, but when I try to run any script I have a popup that refers to an XML. Messages error DLL-file and returns as below:

  BEGIN failed--compilation abandoned to C:/Program Files/VMware/VMware vSphere CLI.

  Perl/site/lib/XML/LibXML.pm line 116.

  Looks like it missing something and I tried this on multiple Windows computers and I also had a go at installing source code on page 18 (http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/viperltoolkit/viperl40/doc/vsperl_40_install.pdf), for starters, I can't locate Perl modules required for of ActivePerl Perl Package Manager and also I found mentioned vSphere SDK package source Perl to the download page , but only on the integrated Setup.

  Clearly I am doing something wrong here, but I don't know which is quite frustrating, so any help is appreciated!

  It seems that your version of LibXML is not synchronized with your Perl installation.

  Have you installed other perl distributions?  Did you install all other LibXML modules?  Sounds like its not picking up LibXML module that you want to use.

  I would uninstall all perl installations.  Make sure that C:\Perl is thus removed.  And then redo the installation as I wrote it upward.

  In my installation (on Windows Server 2003), I use ActivePerl v5.10.0 and XML-LibXML 1.66 (from PPM).

  Also, is this 64 bit?  And it's x 86 I guess?

• Linux 32-bit. Abobe plug-in already installed. Always get looks like to your using an older version of Firefox. All talk of 64, I'm Linux 32. Need 2 plug-ins?

  For a long time keep saying looks like to your using an older version of Firefox. Several times I tried to install Adobe Flash plug-in, both with Firefox and the Adobe site. I'm on Linux 32-bit, 64 no, details, that I find are for 64 bit.
  https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/questions/759565
  I think that the problem might be here, but I do not see the solution for 32 bit. Looks like only maybe 2 plug-ins? Anyway I need help.
  It is a problem with all the extra steps with the question you can imagine. I tried from scratch with Firefox, not working, more like 52 card pick up... if you know this game.
  I want a solution if you have a. Thank you.

  I had the problem solved. Thank you for your help. I had to get help from an engineer, I know. It's fast enough, but it looked like he deleted the old and installed the new and it seemed that perhaps the launch could have the issue? Not exactly, it's almost as if the launch was set for the old version... but don't want to send someone on the cause of the bad way, I don't know, but he later installed to firefox 38.1 or another... the 29. SOLVED. Thank you for taking the time to help. It was frustrating problem.

• vSphere 5.5 Linux Appliance LDAP

  Hello

  I have a question about VCLA (vSphere 5.5 Linux Appliance) and LDAP.

  We need to connect our vCenter Linux Appliance in our LDAP server.

  : Q1 I need a SSO or can I configure vCenter to use LDAP without an SSO?

  Q2: If I need a SSO is the delivered device one?

  Q3: If so. Document of the witch describe? I can't find a suitable doc

  Thank you very much!

  Q1: Is the point where the standards body will be installed or enabled for the VCSA?

  This is where you set up if you plan to use the on-board SSO or an external SSO. If you select incorporated, simply provide the password for authentication ONE Admin account [email protected]. Once registered, the first part of the SSO is made. Then, you must sign to vSphere Client Web https://VCSAIP:9443 using the [email protected] and configure the Sources of identity (this is the configuration of how SSO will connect to your LDAP server). A lot of articles out there, here is a Howto : AD authentication in vCenter SSO 5.5 | Virten.NET

  

  Q2: If Yes? Why do I need a--> 'account with the right to register with the SSO Server vCenter '.

  This is necessary only if you have an existing instance of SSO and want to use it for your vCenter server.

• Using the hard drive on HP Proliant after installing VSPhere ESXi 5

  I recently installed VSphere ESXi 5 on a HP Proliant server. I've migrated several virtual machines successfully on, with access via client vsphere. I'm trying to find out whether the server is in Raid 5. I called HP and they said that the only way to know is to insert the smart startup disk. I inserted, but I don't know how to access the disk. I know this is probably very simple, but I'm lost. Thanks for your help.

  It depends on if you a raid controller enough disks and supported your server to take a RAID5 configuration.

  Download the HP smart start ISO, ILO mount or burn a CD to boot off the coast so that you can launch the utility of configuration of matrices (ACU). It's really something that should have been done before the ESXi installation.

  See the example below;

  See you soon,.

• How to find if a scsi disk can be used as a ROW or only use not vsphere CLI.

  Hi, I want to know if the SCSI disk can be used as RDM and a remote computer running vSphere CLI.

  I tried to use 'vicfg-scsidevs - l', but it doesn't have the required information list

  ===============================================

  Here is sample out put

  MPX.vmhba0:C0:T1:l0

  Device type: disk

  Size: MB 69459

  Full name: disk space from VMware (mpx.vmhba0:C0:T1:L0)

  Plugin: NMP

  Device console: /vmfs/devices/disks/mpx.vmhba0:C0:T1:L0

  Devfs Path: /vmfs/devices/disks/mpx.vmhba0:C0:T1:L0

  Seller: VMware model: Block device Revis: 1.0

  SCSI level: 2 is nickname: status:

  : RDM Capable is removable:

  Other names:

  VML.0000000000766d686261303a313a30

  empty fields "Is Capable RDM" here.

  =======================================================

  When I executed the command 'esxcfg-scsidevs - l' on an ESX Server, he gave me the necessary info.

  MPX.vmhba0:C0:t0:l0

  Device type: Direct access

  Size: 138919 MB

  Full name: disk space from VMware (mpx.vmhba0:C0:T0:L0)

  Plugin: NMP

  The console device: / dev/cciss/c0d0

  Devfs Path: /vmfs/devices/disks/mpx.vmhba0:C0:T0:L0

  Seller: VMware model: Block device Revis: 1.0

  : SCSI 2 is Pseudo: false status: on

  : RDM Capable false is removable: false

  Is Local: true

  Other names:

  VML.0000000000766d686261303a303a30

  So is it possible for vSphere CLI through which we can tell if the SCSI disk device can be used as ROW or NOT?

  and what parameter defined as capable of RDM?

  Thank you

  Chandra Sekhar P.

  Hi Chandra,

  In order to get the SCSI LUNS that can serve as RDM, you must use the QueryConfigTarget method. This method is defined on EnvironmentBrowser. You need to recover some EnvironmentBrowser object ComputeResource the HostSystem where the virtual machine is created. The configTarget.ScsiDisk returned after the method call contains the logic unit number information that is capable of RDM.

  I hope this helps!
