How do you exit name of Virtual Machine of ' Get - VM | Get-AdvancedSetting' command?

Hello, I have a question which is hopefully enough simple to answer.

I'm having this problem explained in KB 2078352 and you want a list of VMs affected before hotfixing them, to see if it helped with our problem or not.


Sample line:

Get - vm | Get-AdvancedSetting - name tools.deployPkg.fileName

Name value Type Description

----                 -----                ----                 -----------

tools.deployPkg.f... imc1D01.tmp VM

tools.deployPkg.f... imc937E.tmp VM

tools.deployPkg.f... imc32EE.tmp VM

tools.deployPkg.f... imc6030.tmp VM

This shows only the value of the file names, but not the names of virtual machine. So I was just wondering how I can get an output of name of virtual machine with this information?

Thanks in advance.

Try adding a Format-Table may

Get - VM | Get-AdvancedSetting |
Select @{N = "VM"; E={$_. @entity.name}}, Name, Value | Format-Table - AutoSize

  • How to import the list of virtual machines to complete a table in a workflow

    When you run the followingworkflow/library/vCenter/batch/run a workflow on a selection of objects

    How import you a list of virtual machines to complete the table of virtual machines?

    At this moment we are manually by selecting the virtual machines and adding them to the table individually which is very tedious. We would simply import a list.

    There is a certain ways that you can do what you're trying to do, but from your description, it looks like a wrapper will work best.  I enclose a simple workflow that loads the table from a csv file.  There is no error checking going on, but it should help you get started and you can expand on it from there.

  • How to specify the file of virtual hard disk when you create a new virtual machine using virtual hard disk on the data store?

    I'm new to PowerCLI and find quite simple, but in the documentation I read, I don't see how to use a virtual hard drive, existing on a data store when you create a new virtual machine.

    Is this simple registration on the virtual hard disk, or did I miss something?

    My current create VM is the following statement:

    New-VM

    -Name $TargetHostName -host $TargetVMCenterHost -data store $TargetVMCenterDatastore DiskMB - 20000 -MemoryMB $TargetHostMemoryMB -NumCPU $TargetHostCPUs -ID $TargetHostOS -CD -Description $TargetHostName

    Didn't notice this before, but I think that vSphere will use a backslash instead of a slash in the paths.

  • How can I mutual folder "discovered virtual machines.

    I use c# api.

    When I get all records in a data center, I get the host, the vm and the discovery of the virtual machines folder.

    When you request the property of hostFolder - you download the file from the host. It goes the same for vmFolder.

    How to identify the folder "discovered virtual machines? What size should I look to find this file specifically?

    I don't want to find all the files and compare names, because files can be renamed.

    Help, please.

    Thank you.

    idanmnr

    Iamw is right.  The vmFolder will contain the "discovered virtual machines" folder, you would just do a search from there.

    What becomes tricky is that it is possible that someone is offering this particular folder in another folder, so probably have to walk down the tree of vmFolder until you find the open folder VM.  If for a simple case, you can assume it will be one of the childEntity of vmFolder objects.

    In addition, this file can be renamed as well.  I don't think that this is a special folder in inventory of VI, comes out just for a default folder that is created for use.  But maybe someone else can provide more details on that.

    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).

  • ESXi 4.0 on Dell 1850 this host doesn't support VT you have configured the virtual machine to use an operating system 64-bit client.

    Hello

    , I have in 3 data centers Dell 1850, identical hardware configurations.  I installed Esxi 4.0 to the ISO from site Web de VMware dell custom help. He is successfully installed on all servers, without error at all. I've updated them all to the last generation, using VMware vSphere Client. I have a problem with one of the server when I want to use 64-bit machines, he realizes: this host does not support VT you have configured the virtual machine to use an operating system 64-bit client.  However, this host is not able to run 64-bit virtual machines or virtual computer has 64-bit support disabled. For more information, see http://www.vmware.com/info?id=152. I don't understand why I got this, servers are identical, versions of BIOS, firmware, and all updates are the same. There is also a warning in the configuration tab, on the State of health link.

    Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestion.

    Yes according to the description of CPU, it seems that they do not support intel VT:

  • How to keep or ignore the UUID when you power on a virtual machine

    We have a scenario where we are mirror of VMs from one site to another site for BCP which has a separate instance of the VC.

    We pre-record the virtual computers hosted NFS in virtual center.

    When we need to recover break us the mirror and power on the machine.

    VC then promp with the question, you want to keep or throw the UUID.

    How can be script as its easy to answer a few virtual machines but a pain for possibly up to a hundred?

    There are a few things to keep in mind when you want to start the guests and answer the question in this way.

    (1) the Start-VM cmdlet will wait for the prompt to start, but there is a question waiting it will never happen.

    ==> the solution is to use the Start-VM cmdlet with the parameter -RunAsync , this way the cmdlet will not wait.

    (2) when a client starts, it will take some time before the issue appears.

    ==> the solution is to wait until the question is displayed with a loop

    (3) to get the current status of the prompt, the script needs to get the VirtualMachine object with each pass through the loop.

    The properties of the $vm variable are not automatically updated unless the script retrieves the object with the cmdlet Get-View.

    (4) the purpose of the Question is present when the question is displayed. Prior to this point, this object is $null.

    ==> to avoid execution of the StartsWith method on a $null object if statement first checks to see if the object in Question is present.

    The script relies on the fact that the two conditions that are combined with - and the operator are executed from left to right.

    This is probably not a good programming practice and should be solved by using two nested If statements.

    The following script implements all the points made above.

    Note that it can only be used for the issue of msg.uuid.moved.

    The script responses with choice 2 which is the choice of 'keep '.

    $qMsgUuidMoved = "msg.uuid.moved:"
    $choiceKeep = 2
    
    $vmImpl = Get-VM "TestPC"
    $vmImpl | Start-VM -RunAsync
    
    do{
      $vm = $vmImpl | Get-View
      if($vm.Runtime.Question -ne $null -and $vm.Runtime.Question.Text.StartsWith($qMsgUuidMoved)){
        $vm.AnswerVM($vm.Runtime.Question.Id, $choiceKeep)
      }
    } until ($vm.Runtime.PowerState -ne "poweredoff")
    
    Write-Host $vm.Name "started"
    
  • How is it important to enhance virtual machine hardware level if you don't need the extra features the latest offers?

    Are there benefits or reason to pass the levels of virtual machine hardware if you don't need new features later versions give you?

    We are getting ready for VSphere 6 and begin to migrate some of our guests.  Most of our virtual machines are at levels 7, 8 or 9.

    From what I've seen, the features of material level 10 and 11 are not everything what we need on most of our virtual machines.  I'm happy to walk if later versions of material are better, more stable, etc and we should upgrade the hardware even if we don't need the extensive features.

    Mike O'Donnell

    Hi Mike,.

    VMware sees as a best practice to run on the latest version of material (see the section of the Virtual Machines on this page: KB VMware: vSphere 5.x upgrade to vSphere recommended 6.0) and if you encounter a problem with a virtual machine, support may ask you to update the version. In practice it might give you more stability or some performance enhancements.

    I was like you although I don't necessarily keep my VMs up-to-date at the hardware level. I make sure they are relatively recent but.

    You want to make sure that all cluster hosts are compatible on all hosts. the last thing you want is to have a failure and knowing that the client cannot run on a different host due to incompatibility.

  • How to extend vmdk for several virtual machines?

    Hello!

    I have a 300 + vm on vsphere5.1 and I need to extend the system drive on each of them. Have ideas of how do with powercli? Thank you.

    You can try something like that.

    It will increase the size of 20% vmdk. Note that the virtual computer must be turned off for this.

    Get-VM | Where {$_.PowerState -eq "PoweredOff"} |Get-HardDisk -Name "Hard disk 1" |Set-HardDisk -CapacityGB ([int]($_.CapacityGB * 0.2)) -Confirm:$false -HelperVM $vm

  • Names of Virtual Machine files changed after SVMotion

    To date I've seen point interesting when I was trying to SVMotion. Here it goes

    I have a virtual machine called base01 (as it is show VC), but the real name of this virtual machine is ROMBASE02 (the console I see all files including VMX, vmdk etc...). I found this, because I tried to do with unsuccessful SVMotion. later, I tried to make SVMotion with ROMBASE02.vmx and success. After completing of SVMotion I found that all the files of the virtual machine has changed for base01.

    How it is possible an idea?

    as Jean-Marie said, if you have a vCenter VM that does not match the data store named naming convention, if you move (cold migrate or sVMotion) the virtual machine in another data store, it will change the datstore file to match the name of the object in vCenter.
