• Need a Script out how many virtual machines have snapshot

  Hi people,

  I'm looking for a script to get out how VMs in a VC have snapshot with Cluster information in CSV format. If possible snapshot size too

  Thank you

  vmguy

  Try something like this

  $report = foreach($vm in Get-VM){
      Get-Snapshot -VM $vm |
      Select @{N="Cluster";E={(Get-Cluster -VM $vm).Name}},
              @{N="VM";E={$vm.Name}},
              Name, SizeMB

• How to find so far how many virtual machines created. ?

  Hi all
  is there anyway in vfoglight, find so far how many virtual computers created.

  very much appreciate your help.

  Thank you
  amreddy

  You can create a drag and drop dashboard/report for this information table.

  Details:

  Create dashboard (right Menu)

  VMware, Virtual Center + name of the virtual centre (right Menu - data tab)

  Drag "virtualMachinesCount" on the dashboard

  Select a chart

  Set the time range you want. (Top right of the screen)

  FYI: County of VM is also avialable from a datacenter and cluster level.

• Create a great metric for virtual machines that shows how many virtual machines on the host parent

  One of the properties of a virtual computer's Parent host.  I would like to pass this info on to a metric Super VM and use to gather the number of VMS are on the associated VM host Parent.   This SM would be so associated with my VMs.

  Is this possible?

  -MattG

  I found this:

  AVG (${adaptertype = VMWARE, objecttype = HostSystem, attribute is summary | total_number_vms, depth =-1})

  Because I had to use a host object type I don't think he would show as a metric of Super in the scope of the VM... it does!

• How many virtual machines can be run using the bridge at the same time?

  I'm on Win 7 and XP both in Bridge mode. every time the two machines lights I lose the entire network including the host NIC connection. Once I have change the VM to NAT connection I can resume normal activity. Mode bridge on 2 or more VMs is not a supported configuration? Can someone please clarify? I'd appreciate the help.

  Thank you

  The default value for switch ports is often the "Desktop" mode, which limits access to the only 2 (port security) MAC addresses. If you need more the port need to be configured as a port of "access".

• How many virtual machines on a single HBA?

  Hi all

  I understand a VI3 environment for a client, but I doubt if HBA will be a bottle neck for the performance of the virtual machine. I would like to know how much minimum I should recommend? Two enough a primary and another for failover? can you tell us the load balancer for HBA? I read that we can have several number of VMs communicate via a single HBA, however, there will be performance problems? Can anyone share their experiences and their recommendations?

  Thank you

  Rahul

  I've not seen HBA as a bottleneck, especially with the 4 GB HBAs now commonly available.

  I only dual port HBA in our blade servers and servers of U 1, I ran 2 x single port HBA.

  Main SAN issues, I've had have been a doubtful avalanche Transceiver and a motherboard fault on a Server Blade.

  Otehrwise HBAs themselves were enough sound that's why I am not too concerned about the unique dual-port HBA's on the blade.

  A lot of the design is subject to redundancy and how much risk / single points of failure, you are willing to tolerate.

• How do I know how many virtual machines can be added to a host or a cluster?

  I downloaded the vKernel VoP VAPP and see on the environment page that explore the ability on the right box shows "you have room on 1 cluster to place up to 23 virtual machines.

  That means's the maximum VMs or this number indicates can accommodate 23 VMs?

  23 IT´s VMs additional based on average use of your existing virtual machines.

• Find out how many virtual machines you create a month

  I've been messing around with this script which was published on the vSphere PowerCLI blog but I can't do what I want it. I try to get the output to an html Web page results. Here is the code of the blog:

  Function Get-VMCreationReport {}

  Get - VM | {Group

  If ($_.) CustomFields-as -not $null) {}

  "{0:Y}" -f $_. CustomFields

  } else {}

  'Unknown'}}

  }

  I modified it as follows:

  #I have location set because I'm only pulling the VM to a specific host in a folder.

  $VMs = @(get-VM-emplacement "TEST")

  "$html = @".

  
  
  "@
  
  $html = ""test ' "

  $VMs | {Group

  if($_.) CustomFields-as -no $null)

  {$html = « {0:Y} » -f $_. CustomFields}

  else {}

  $html = 'Unknown'}

  }

  $html = "< / HTML >".

  $html > Test_run.html

  The problem is that the output is not posting on the html page. I can see when debug that code runs through the if loop to the right. Any ideas?

  SELECT is in fact an alias for Select-Object.

  Allways try (in this case to select)

  Get-Alias Select
  

  When you run a cmdlet you do not recognize.

  The dismantled line:

  -) put all the contents of $result in the pipeline

  -) of each object, select the following

  (-) the Name property. After a group object, the Name property contains the grouping field, in this case the date

  (-) A hash literal to calculate the following property. In this case, the number of elements in the array of the group, which is the number of guests

  (-) all resulting objects to the Select-Object are placed in the pipeline and converted by the ConvertTo-Html cmdlet to HTML

  -) add the result (the ConvertTo-Html cmdlet output) the existing contents of the variable $html

• How many virtual servers by host machine?

  Hello

  Another question, is there a method to determine how many virtual machines that I can host on one computer? Many people seem to ask this question, but I'm yet to find one another answer that wave "between 10 and 20 virtual machines" or "up to 50 vms' if I know what are my physical features and I know what operating systems and applications I don't want run on virtual servers, is there a way to calculate whether my hardware will be able to host virtual machines?

• virtual machine cannot start, because the snapshot of the virtual machine has been deleted by mistake.

  virtual machine cannot start, because the snapshot of the virtual machine has been deleted by mistake.

  When I start this virtual machine, it prompts: unable to find the 0001.vmdk, this disc is my shot, has been deleted by mistake.

  How to restore this virtual machine.

  You need help with a revival of the 000001.vmdk deleted or do you want to repair the virtual machine so that it works without the snapshot?

  The last option, follow these steps:
  remove the virtual machine from the inventory and edit the vmx file so that it uses the basedisk. Then add the virtual machine to inventory.
  If you need data from the snapshot call me through Skype "sanbarrow" - I may be able to help

• How the physical machine can communicate with the virtual machines as well as the internet should work on a virtual machine

  Hi team,

  I ask that you forgive for asking a silly question without doing a free search.

  I'm using VMware workstation 6.5. I am able to communicate with both machines by selecting 'only option of home. "

  Is there a way by which the physical machine can communicate with the virtual machines.

  At the same time through the VMS, is it possible to access the Internet from the physical amchine.

  Help, please.

  When you use a bridged vNIC the customer acts as any other host, so that you can access is by his IP (or name if a DNS configuration exists as you acceding to any other host.) What tools you can use depends on the guest operating system and the software available.

  I assume you mean access deskopt. Then you can use RDP (Windows Terminal services) or VNC (tight/tiny).

  For Linux, you can use this last or all the flavors of SSH. In the case of Linux, I use VNC through SSH tunnel. You can also tunnel X through SSH, so if you have an X server on another host (such as the Hummingbird for Windows), you can open your own office remotely there.

• Created in Esxi virtual MACHINE can't see the network

  Hello

  I installed Esxi 5.5 and I have no problem to access and create a virtual machine.

  However, the virtual machine, which is 2012 Windows, does not begin with a network adapter.

  When I check the configuration of the VM, the network adapter is connected, turned on, E1000E but says directpath e/s is not supported. I don't have VMware tools installed in the virtual machine.

  I don't understand where the problem lies. I connect to Esxi ok. I can run the virtual machine in Esxi client ok, but the images says that there is no network.

  I created the VM Windows before 2012, outside of Esxi and the network built in card is detected ok.

  STOP PRESS - in computer management Windows, peripheral, the Ethernet controller is not recognized. So, how can I get the virtual machine to recognize when it is running in ESXI?

  Help?

  Thank you

  Jason

  Also can you check with adapter VMXNET or tru uninstalling and reinstalling VMware tools.

• Virtual machine does not start the Server Windows 2003 Std ISO file?

  Hello

  I am trying to create a virtual Windows 2003 machine, I created the ISO file, downloaded on my ISO library and connected the CDROM drive for the ISO file.

  When I boot the maching, I select the start menu and select the CDROM drive the virtual machine starts the ISO?

  The continuous boot just on the network card boot.

  It's as if the virtual machine does not see the CDROM drive?

  I use folder2iso

  To me, it sounds as if the ISO created may not be bootable! How did you create the ISO file?

• Cloning of virtual machines with snapshots

  Is it possible to take a virtual machine with snapshots, and then copy the individual vmdk files that make up a set of 5 shots manually and create a new virtual machine, so that all of the snapshots is all kept - and if it works what are the possible caviats / traps?  When you use just the cloning tool, it includes all snapshots.

  Hi TheVMinator,

  As mentioned in the kb, it is not recommended. But if you stop your virtual machine, copy the complete folder and then save the new VMX, it should work.

  The only problem that you have is a corruption of the sequence of disk. In this case, you can try to fix it or make another copy of the original VM. But you will not damage your original machine.

  Good luck.

• can't resize HDD on any virtual machine XP, but on the other dare resize fine

  Of size of drive running in something weird today where we noticed that via vCenter if we try to resize the hard disk of a computer virtual with XP as the guest operating system, is greyed out. With any other OS (vista, server 2003, win 2000 pro, win 7, Server 2008), we can resize the hard drive very well.

  This applies even with brand new virtual computer, which do not even have an operating system installed. Just the Act of creating a virtual machine and to say the things that XP will be installed just grey on the resizing option. (This excludes other common mistakes - of course we do not have a snapshot on the VM brand new, and it is not running.)

  Any idea what could happen? This is not normal behavior, is it?

  Use the custom option instead of typical when you deploy XP guest.  In this way, you can choose which controller to use.  And to increase the space on the IDE XP guest, use VMware Converter.  And while you're there, step 3 change the controller type to SCSI LSI
