How to pass the start settings in starting a virtual machine?
How can I use PowerCLI to start a new Linux VM and the nucleus of some startup parameters?
What would be more simple: (a) to make and use a virtual machine model, or (b) to boot from an ISO image, or (c) start with a Linux VM and the clone who?
The basic Linux is RedHat on an ISO on the network (ISO can be on a local path running the PowerCLI script if necessary). If a model would be easier then a diagram how to make one of my ISO would be great!
RedHat Linux can be configured by passing parameters of the kernel startup, so kickstart configures the system, something like
KS=/my/path/KS.cfg otherparams
where KS.cfg says kickstart what to do.
How to pass the start settings in the new virtual machine?
(It is probably completely irrelevant, but I work with Xen using bash scripting and)
$UUID = xe model vm-install = "RedHatLinux64bit."
XE vm-param-set uuid = $UUID PV-args="ks=/my/path/ks.cfg '.
XE-vm-beginning uuid = $UUID
now, it must be implemented on ESX. To determine when the new VM is fuly configured, my scripts from kickstart wrote a semaphore to be detected by the bash script.)
I know very little about ESX and PowerCLI details will be particularly useful if you please!
Thank you!
Enjoy your break

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 everyone counts the total amount of GHz for virtual machines on a host-cluster?
Hello
I want to do some basic sizing and I may\may do not go the way to write about it. For example, suppose I have a cluster of 4 nodes with a total of 200GHz and 1 TB of RAM on all four hosts with 100 VM. How can I get the total amount of GHz\Memory that each virtual machine is configured with (not necessaryly to aid real-time) so that I can workout or demonstrate what fits on one or two hosts in the cluster, for example?
Thanks for your help and advice in advance
You can do this via the inventory tool called RVTOOL which allow you to do an inventory of all your virtual machines and hosts with the resource assigned and served. hope, it will help you.

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.

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 to change the name of VirtualSwitch without running virtual MAchines of braking?
Does anyone know how to change the name of the virtual switch (used by VM) without braking the VM running in this cluster?
The best way to do this without losing network connectivity is add a group of ports with the new name and connect the virtual machines to the new group of port and when the initial group of port is empty remove - remember that it's the port group named not the vswitch.

How to add the AD security group in each virtual machine with a name corresponding in VCenter?
Hi all
I would like to know if it is possible with VMware PowerCLI v4.1, I created the universal security group called 'Local administrators on %ComputerName%' for each server I have in UO computers by location OR separate and that he manually add members of the Local, but I want to attribute this security group in each computer virtual with the same name if possible.
Basically, it's something like this:
In the ad, here are computer objects:
DOMAIN.com/Computers/ mailserver1-VM
DOMAIN.com/Computers/ DBServer1-VM
DOMAIN.com/Computers/ ApplicationServer1-VMIn the ad's local security group objects:
DOMAIN.com/SecureProductionOU/ 'Administrator locally on mailserver1-VM'
DOMAIN.com/SecureProductionOU/ 'Local on DBServer1-VM administrator.
DOMAIN.com/SecureProductionOU/ 'Local on ApplicationServer1-VM administrator.So I want to affect these security group in each respective name of VMS in VCenter:
VCenter01.domain.com
Datacenter1
HighPerformanceCluster1
Mailserver1-VM - Local Administrator on mailserver1-VM - role: read-only
DBServer1-VM - Local Administrator on DBServer1-VM - role: read-only
ApplicationServer1-VM - Local Administrator on ApplicationServer1-VM - role: read-onlyAny kind of aid and assistance would be appreciated grgeatly.
Thank you.
Hi Albert,
I don't know what you want to check exactly, so I give 2 possible solutions.
(1) you have a fixed number of names known to virtual machines for which you want to add this permission.
$targetVM = "MailServer1-VM","DBServer1-VM","ApplicationServer1-VM" Get-Cluster -Name HighPerformanceCluster1 | Get-VM | ` where {$targetVM -contains $_.Name} | %{ New-VIPermission -Entity $_ -Principal ("DOMAIN\Local Administrator on " + $_.Name) ` -Role (Get-VIRole -Name ReadOnly) -Confirm:$false }
(2) you want to check for each virtual computer if the security group exist and then add the authorization.
Get-Cluster -Name HighPerformanceCluster1 | Get-VM | ` Where{Get-QADObject ("DOMAIN\Local Administrator on " + $_.Name) ` -DontUseDefaultIncludedProperties -WarningAction SilentlyContinue ` -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue -SizeLimit 1} | %{ New-VIPermission -Entity $_ -Principal ("DOMAIN\Local Administrator on " + $_.Name) ` -Role (Get-VIRole -Name ReadOnly) -Confirm:$false}
Note that this requires the Quest AD snap-in must be installed. If you have a version without the Quest AD snap let me know.

How to synchronize the start of IT and relaxation the Scan list (DAQmx Switch)
Hello
I want to measure samples of N to the AI0 of Council NI PXI 4461. The measurement starts on a rising edge of a digital triggering provided to the PFI0 of the same Board. The measure is configured with samples of N/2 pretrigged. So far, everything is under control...
Using an NI PXI 2567 Board, the signal applied at the entrance the 4461 (AI0) switches between a V2 and V1 signal. I would like to synchronize the switch between the two signals with the trigger signal applied to the input of the PFI0 Governing Council 4461. In order to obtain samples of N/2 of V1 and V2 samples N/2. Synchronization of 1 to 5 ms would suffice!
My question is how to synchronize the start of acquisition of AI pretrigged of 4461 with the switch control given by the Council of 2567?
Thank you in advance for your help...
PS: the configuration of the system is:
-LabView 8.5
-Chassis PXI-1044
PXI-4461 on slot 2
Module 4-slot PXI-2567
Hi Frederic,.
I came back to this recently and used the following examples to run the desired synchronization.
PXI-4461: Acq & graph tension-Int Clk - dig Start & Ref .vi
Samples per channel = 1000
Rate (Hz) = 10000.00
Start the trigger Source = / [name of the instrument DAQmx] / PXI_Trig0
Onboard start = fall
Reference Source Trigger = DAQmx Device Name] / PXI_Trig0
Reference edge = fall
Trigger samples = Variable (100, 500, 900)
PXI-2567: Switch Scaning-SW Trigger.vi
Advance the output terminal full = / [name of the instrument DAQmx] / PXI_Trig0
Scan list = / [name of the instrument DAQmx] / ch0-> com0.
Scan list = / [name of the instrument DAQmx] / ch1-> com1;
Hardware configuration:
The PXI-2567 module controls an external relay that switches between the voltage of 5 V on ch0 and ch1 0 V.
The PXI-4461 connects to the COM of the external relay and therefore reads 5V when ch0 is connected; 0 v when ch1 is connected.
Procedure: The above examples are used in the following procedure.
1. run the PXI-4461 VI. A start trigger (falling edge) is necessary to start collecting samples before firing.
2. launch the module, PXI - 2567 VI. When ch0 is initially (and immediately) on com0, a trigger is sent to PXI_Trig0. The PXI-4461 will begin to acquire samples before firing.
3. - click on the "Connect to the next" button on the front of the PXI - 2567 VI module. This sends a trigger to entry software for the PXI-2567 module and the transitions of the scan for ch1-> com1 list. Once the PXI-2567 module remains (debounced), advanced complete relaxation is sent on PXI_Trig0 for the PXI-4461. The PXI-4461 will begin to acquire samples after outbreak.
Note: Instead of the trigger of the software entry, an external input trigger can be used (e.g. PXI_Trig1).
Results:
> Before instant release of samples = 100
Delay is caused by the time of actuation of external relay.
> Before instant release of samples = 500
Delay is caused by the time of actuation of external relay.
> Before instant release of samples = 900
Delay is caused by the time of actuation of external relay.
I hope that the attached screws and the explanation above helps you and/or other customers who have this problem.
Best regards

How to start a virtual machine without vmx file
Hello, I have a virtual machine that I want to start up using 10.0.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 32-bit workstation but I don't have multiple vmdk files and a file on me vmxf and apparently, that's all that is in the software. How do I run something like that?
Hello
You cannot start a virtual machine without a vmx file.
If you do not have a vmx file - fly a.
For example this one:
-----------------------------------. Encoding = "windows-1252".
config.version = '8 '.
virtualHW.version = '8 '.
scsi0. Present = 'TRUE '.
scsi0.virtualDev = "free".
memsize = "2048".
scsi0:0. Present = 'false '.
scsi0:0. FileName = "set-path-to-bootdisk-and-then-set-.present-to-true-to-activate".
ethernet0. Present = 'TRUE '.
ethernet0.virtualDev = "e1000".
displayName = "minimal-vm.
guestOS = "windows7-64.
virtualHW.productCompatibility = "hosted".
------------------------------------
That cuts into a file and store it as a *.vmx.
Then launch the new VM with
VMware /path-to-vmx/name.vmx or
vmplayer /path-to-vmx/name.vmx
Other users may also recommend to simply launch the user interface and follow the file > New menu...
and then order the new virtual machine to the card by selecting your existing virtual disks.
