How to move a virtual machine from one virtual switch to the other since the SDK / command line?

Joshua Smith

Are you referring to the evolution of the virtual machines network portgroup of one to the other and in your case potentially issue on to another vSwitch? If so, take a look at this script: updateVMPortgroup.pl everything you do really makes a call to ReconfigVM_Task() and passing in a specification change and put to day the network in which you want to change

  • How to move the virtual machine from one cluster to another cluster

    How to move the virtual machine from one cluster to another cluster

    If two Clusters are in the same data center, you could do a 'live' migration or vMotion, if that's the case.   If the virtual machine is turned off, it may be migrated regardless of the data center.

  • How to move virtual machines from one host to another without full VI and vMotion?

    Hello

    could you help me with a question?

    I have two installed hosts with ESXi 3.5 U5, which are connected to the shared iSCSI (Openfiler) - VMs storage are installed on the storage disk. My requirement is to have a cheap solution of DR - in case of failure of a host, I need to move and start VM on the host of work. How to achieve without going through VMware Infrastructure 3.5 and vMotion?

    I found this article:

    http://www.virtualizetips.com/2010/04/how-to-move-a-VM-without-vCenter-or-storage-VMotion/

    but RCLI needs Infrastructure of VMware ESXi does not have default CLI So, how to move VMs between hosts (of course I mean "cold" move) without byuing any additonal VMware SW? It is generally possible in my situation?

    Thank you.

    If the virtual machines are running in shared storage (two guests see the same storage iSCSI or NFS) then it's simple. If a host goes down, then look for the data store on the ESXi host work. Navigate through folders for each virtual machine, right-click on the VMX file and add to the inventory. You will then be able to turn on the virtual machine.

    To move a virtual machine from one host to another, as long as both hosts had the same processors, you can pause the VM on the single host, browse and add the virtual machine to the inventory on the second break host and the United Nations.

    If the virtual machines are on local storage, but the two hosts are connected to the same shared storage, clone virtual machines on a daily basis from local storage to shared storage. Use something like ghettoVCB http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-8760 make the clone. In the case of a server failure, you will be able to browse the data store, add to the inventory on the shared storage and switch the cloned machine.

    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).

  • Move the virtual machine from one host to another with shared storage

    Hello

    I have a question on how to move a virtual machine from one ESX 4 host to a host ESXi 5.  These hosts have access to the same shared storage but the ESX 4 host is outside the network and host ESXi 5 is inside the network so vMotion is not an option.  They are in different groups.  I know that there must be an easy way to move this virtual machine, but for the life of me, I can't find it.  I guess I have remove the virtual machine from the external cluster but how to make the virtual machine in the internal cluster?

    Thanks in advance...

    If both host access to the data store even where VM's store, just stop the virtual machine, remove inventory on ESXi 4, go to ESXi 5 vSphere vSphere, browse the data store where the VM is stored, do a right-click on the .vmx file and add to the inventory.

  • What is the best method to transfer a virtual machine from one PC to another?

    I am a novice in VMWare workstation. I created my first SharePoint 2010 development VM, and my boss wants me to give him a copy of my SP 2010 VM. He told me to just give him the. VMX file, but I believe that there must be a better method to transfer a virtual machine from one PC to another.

    Thanks in advance.

    Coltrane.

    Coltrane,

    to transfer a virtual machine from one PC to another, shut down the virtual computer and copy the complete folder with all the files (vmx, vmdk,...) on another PC.

    A thin to keep in mind (outside the Windows license) if the virtual machine is one attached to your network, you must change the copied disk - as you would with a cloned physical system - to have a unique host name, MAC address and IP address.

  • How to pin facebook page more from one person to the taskbar

    How to pin facebook page more from one person to the taskbar. Also if I get more a page pinned how can I change the icons to distinguish who is who. And how to pin the game I play on the who's who. When I try it pin Center apps, not the game.

    Hi Justin,

    I'm sure you know, the new taskbar in Windows 7 axes of apps.  Individual files or locations within these applications cannot be pinned as their own icon, but rather as options in the shortcut (right-click) of their parent icon list.
    With Internet Explorer 9, this functionality has been extended to allow Web sites to pin to the taskbar.  Note that there is a fine difference between site and Web page.  You can pin the whole site but not the pages of this site.  Similar to an icon for PowerPoint, then lots of different PowerPoint files on this right click on the list of shortcuts.
    An alternative is to create shortcuts to the pages and make them appear on the icon in the toolbar to IE.  To create a shortcut (rather than a "pin site"), you need to right click on an empty spot in the Web page and choose "create shortcut".  You will be asked if you want to place on your desktop, click Yes.   Then drag the new shortcut to your taskbar to pin it.

  • 890124. how to move a virtual machine from one storage to another?

    Hello

    I decided to increase the RAM of a virtual machine and storage space in which stood the machine is less than 1 GB, it says that it is impossible to start the virtual machine. So I decided to move the virtual machine to secondary storage which had enough free space.

    How can I make vSphere Client aware of this change? How can I know what's happened? what I need is to boot the machine which is now moved to secondary storage. is this possible?

    THX

    After again moving data store, you must register this virtual machine to be visible in the list at left.

    1 browse the data store and open the corresponding VM folder

    2. Select the .vmx file and right-click.

    3. Select the option "Add to the inventory" and keep clicking Next until you have finished.

    4. now switch on the machine. He will ask a question that you copied or moved.

    5. Select I moved it.

    6. your machine is running.

    And you can see the virtual machine in the list after step 3 itself.
