How to preconfigure the root without intervention of the user password the first time ESXi boots.

Is there a way to pre-configure the password and the IP address by using a script so that I can use a USB stick for getting started with ESXi and vSphere Center allows you to access the host with the preconfigured password and IP address with the intervention of the user for the initial set, for example to jump the "F2" after that the ESXi is first started.
Someone has posted a way to share intellectual property, but not post for the password part.
Thanks in advance...

If you're on vSphere 5, you can use the auto-deploy functionality combined with profiles of the host.

See Using vSphere 5 auto-déployer in your lab to the Duncan House for a complete scenario.

If you are not yet on vSphere 5, you can do an installation by script. See the blog of Scripted install with ESXi (again by Duncan).

In the PowerCLI book, there is a script handy to create a kickstart file. See the video of our Dutch VMUG presentation for a demo.

    Hi all
    I use ADF jdeveloper 11g 2 release. I do the search page. but I do manually, don't use ADF query Panel.
    I drag and drop the adf only read the table. It can run by using the range of time Lov and date using backing bean.
    for example: vo1.setWhereClause (whereClause);
    VO1. ExecuteQuery();
    where clause can change dynamically.
    But my table indicate vo that load all the data first time loading the page. I add all the performance tuning, but no data option is to insert only. so option can do programmatically and can run the query?
    This method I used because I cannot make the search options I want in ADF query Panel. Is there a way to add 3 options but show all fields in the table?

    Turn on the laptop and was invited to choose between operating 32 or 64-bit systems, and did not know which way to go and ended up choosing the 64 (not sure) if it was the right decision.

    Then came with a big warning screen saying that all information on the hard disk will be deleted.
    Totally freaked out and turned off the machine do not know if I said yes it would have to wipe my Windows 7 operating system.

    Anyway can offer advice or suggestions would be great.

    How can I get this thing going?

    Hi mate

    Don t worry not about this message.
    It s usually treat the first partition of the HARD disk is deleted if the recovery procedure should be started.

    This occurs by using the recovery disc or HARD drive recovery.
    In any case... Choose the version of Win 7 (32-bit or 64-bit), and then follow the instructions on the screen.

    Hi Christoph

    That s easy. You must charge the battery for laptops up to the battery LED switches to green light or blue. I put t know exactly the LED on the U200 Pro colors.

    A hint; all the details should be in the manual of the user who is always pre-installed on Toshiba laptops
    There, you will find also information about the battery and manipulation.

    Hi 40123157,

    You use the module in an appropriate manner, and there is no simple way to improve the time of loop iteration beyond what you've done. Here are my suggestions:

    (1) the i2c commands take a long time. In your application, it may speed up if you run only move the engine only when the engine speed has changed.

    (2) for this particular example, you do not use the release of the report engine. If this VI does not need to run it can be removed.

    (3) If you need to speed up execution other than that, as a user advanced LabVIEW, you can create a copy of the VI of engines to move and change it as you choose. All you have to to the "DC motors' entry is use cluster to array on the cluster, as shown below. I think you can speed it up by running all the settings before the loop (type sensor and fixed connection configuration), and removing the value of power if you send only the values between-100 and 100.

    (4) drawing on the screen can be slow you down here.

  • How to calculate the execution time of a SCTL in FPGA VI?

    Hello

    Can someone guide me that how to calculate the execution time of a SCTL for an iteration in the FPGA VI?

    Thank you and best regards,

    Rashid

    Hello r,.

    A SCTL will always run in a beat the clock it has been linked to.  So, if you use a 40 MHz clock, this loop will run in 25 ns.  If the code cannot complete in that, or if it requires two graduations of the watch to do the calculation, your code does not compile, then you have the guarantee that this will always be how long it takes this piece of code to run.

    I need step by step instructions on how to fix this prob. I'm an amateur. Thank you.

    Step 1.  Identify the make and model of the USB device.
    Step 2: Identify the version of Windows XP you have, including service pack (start > run > winver > OK)

    Although the following steps 1 & 2 you could get extra help, I suspect that the 'USB device' has indeed "defective" and you have to go back to where you got it and request a refund or a replacement.
