How to get the list of files for a virtual machine?

Hello

Virtual machines can have their files distributed on several issues (even through several data warehouses).

PowerCLI gives us an easy way to retrieve the data warehouse associated with a virtual (Get-data store) machine, but it doesn't seem to be a built-in method to get the list of all records where a given virtual machine stores all its files. Or maybe I'm just blind ;-)

Can anyone offer an overview on how to achieve this?

Thank you

No, that sounds like a good idea to copy/back up virtual machines.

I adapted the script. She now returns one row for each unique record

foreach($vm in Get-VM){
  $folders = $vm.ExtensionData.LayoutEx.File | %{$_.Name.Split('/')[0]} | Sort-Object -Unique  $folders | Select @{N="VM";E={$vm.Name}},@{N="Folder";E={$_}}
}

  • How can I get the number of disks for a virtual machine and PAHO are / s of a disc?

    Hi all

    I would like to know if there is a command that returns the number of disks having a virtual machine.

    and also if there is no command to obtain and change the number of the IOPS / disk s.

    Thanks in advance

    Carlos

    It will give you hard drives attached

    Get - VM | Hard drive


    It will give you count

    Get - vm | Select name, @{N = "TotalHDD"; E={($_ | (Get-harddisk).count}}


    It is possible to retrieve the number of the IOPS / disk s, but what do you mean by editing.

  • How can we get the list of files in a folder?

    Hi all

    My plugin has a list of .ai files in the user interface of the folder C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS4\Plug - ins\Illustrator Filters\MyPlugin.

    Also, if we put 'MyFile.ai' in the folder 'MyPlugin', then the user interface should display the MyFile (file name) in a drop-down list box.

    I want to get the list of files in the folder "MyPLugin".

    What are the APIs available in artificial intelligence to get the list of files in a folder?

    If you want to enumerate files in a directory, you have to use the OS APIs. I does not provide for this. There are different ways to find important files/directories related to AI, but nothing else.

    The APIs to do this in the operating system are usually pretty easy to use but. Annoying if you try to hit Mac and Windows, but a little care in the design of your interface and hide the worst.

  • How to remove the msg: "consolidation of disks of virtual machines is necessary."

    Hi all

    I implement vSphere 5, and I have the following message displayed in the vCenter (virtual machine Summary tab). Does anyone know how to remove the message without consolidating the snapshot?
    ----------------------------------------------------
    "Consolidation of disks of virtual machines is necessary."
    ----------------------------------------------------

    I think vCenter is detect the Delta for this virtual machine and warning me that I have to consolidate the snapshot. However, I do not want to consolidate the snapshot because the database is still running when the snapshot was taken, and there is a great chance that the data will be corrupt when I consolidate this delta disk file.

    I looked towards the top of the Knowledge Base, but it does not say how to stop the message without actually consolidate the snapshot.

    the message will disappear as soon as snapshots are consolidated.  There is no way to remove the message otherwise.  Just think of it as a reminder that the snapshots should be engaged.

  • How to disable the HA/DRS option on a virtual machine?

    I have a virtual machine running under VMware cluster of 8 ESXi hosts. I want HA/DRS must be disabled on this virtual machine, as well as VMware may not move this vm incase of any failure. Can someone help me on this request?

    Hello Krishna,

    Yes. You can do this in the DRS and HA game settings for each virtual machine individually in cluster settings.

    There are various tabs of options HA - VM and VM - DRS in the vSphere client.

    In the new web client, these parameters are on a tab:

    Manage->-> VM overrides settings.

    Set the DRS automation level and priority to restart HA to disabled for this virtual machine. Also choose to leave it turned on like HA host Isolaiton response.

  • How to get a list of files being compiled in the app?

    The flex compiler 2 used to generate a manifest xml document that describes all the files included in a compilation when you used the - Dungeon compiler option. This makes it really easy to discover the vestigial files.

    The compiler Flex 3 still has this ability? I tried to compile with the option - Dungeon, but what's the best in the generated directory comes from the MXML. I could analyze through all those as files and generate a manifest, but prefer not to do that if I had not to.

    What the Dungeon option has always been at the exit of the generated actionscript files.
    Maybe you think the option-link-report [fichier_dest]?
    Or if you build a library SWC, you can unpack the swc and look catalog.xml to see what is built in this CFC.

  • Please, I beg you! Need a c# example on how to get the list of all host ESX via SDK... I can connect... etc...

    Hello

    I am train to figure this out for a few hours now... and all I find is some examples related to the properties of the VM or something else.

    Now I am able to connect to the server and retrieve things like: Server date and time, version of the API etc...

    I would like to get a code example that would give me the list of ESX servers include within a Virtual Center Server... the last thing I used I got something like: If. Content.searchIndex.ToMo & lt; Indexderecherche & gt; (so). FindEntities & lt; HostSystem & gt; (null, null);...

    This well liked not... Maybe it was too easy...; (o)

    And if you also have a quick way to let me know how to retrieve a simple thing as a host network adapter config... as if I want to know if it is a static address or dhcp etc...

    PS. I have created also a ref to the service instance and service content.

    Here's an example to get the version of the API: (I want that same thing as host nic for setting... but have not yet found the correct syntax)

    var test = SERVICE_CONTENT.about.apiVersion.ToString ();

    MessageBox.Show ("test");

    Also... YES, I'm looking at the SDK prog. Guide... but all of the examples in which are in java... and a little far, the syntax is the same as c#

    Jon

    Thank you and I will award points to a significant response...

    consoleVnic is an array of HostVirtualNic. Therefore, you must print a specific item from the array and not the array itself. It seems that this is the problem.
