How to turn off ESXi 3.5 U4 (free edition) by script
Hello
We have two Dell 2950 III 2 running ESXi 3.5 U4 connected to two 2 APC switched PDU which is in turn connected to a 8 KVA APC UPS. I followed the guide of William Lam using VIMA to stop the virtual machines and hosts http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-9531 and discovered that it won't work with U4
My new plan is to install APC PCNS on virtual machines (7 on each host for a total of 14) so that the inverter can stop them gracefully in case of power failure. The next step is to close the ESXi. The RCLI can be used to stop the ESXi host? It comes to the RCLI does not not for virtual machines with the free version or is - everything that concerns the RCLI, which no longer works? The alternative would be to have one of the virtual machines, perhaps the same machine VIMA, run a script to close the outlets on the PDU which hosts are connected to. I prefer the first option, but if it is not possible on the free version then it would be obligatory. I hope that someone else has solved this problem before and can provide feedback. Thanks for any help.

As stated in the thread you referenced, no vCLI/RCLI command will work requiring more read-only permissions, a stop at the host ESX (i) is considered to be a write operations and will not work. You can unlock the busybox does not support console and use SSH key pairs to initiate a stop, but you won't be able to do so via any vCLI or all VMware API through the read-only mode.

Hello
Try the next method.
Hold the left SHIFT key you click Shutdown to temporarily prevent hybrid boot.
Let off the laptop computer for 10 seconds.
Start by typing esc button permanently as soon as you press the power button (do not wait for the prompt) and see if it will access the start menu - if that is the case, select f10 to open the Bios Menu.
Kind regards

How to turn off the Toshiba Hotkeys properties?
How to turn off the Toshiba Hotkey properties so that I can install Microsoft Money? I get a message telling me that the installation cannot continue because the properties of the shortcut keyboard Toshiba is running, but I don't know how to turn it off, or when it is!
Hi coxrhu,
the fastest way to stop hot keys is to remove the Hotkey Services in the Windows startup process.
Launch msconfig, look at "Startup" and search for "00Thotkey" and "000StTHK".
This programs are normally responsible for the service.Hope this helps
I will assume no responsibility for accidents to your system or loss of data.BR

How to turn off the blue lights under the speakers on Satellite P100?
Does anyone know how to turn off the blue lights that lie beneath the speakers on a Satellite P100? They are evil in my sight!
Thank you, John.
Hello
You are a lucky man. This is a very new unit and I wish that I would also have one of the new Satellite models. But you know, the money is the key :(
However, I don't think that it is possible to put out these fires.
In my opinion, it is a part of the design of laptops. It seems very futuristically. -

How to turn off the FN - key toolbar on the top of the desktop on Satellite P200?
I have a portable Satellite P200 that has shortcuts to function continually buttons ghosts in and out at the top of my screen. How to turn off that I never use the function buttons and it is very annoying when you try to use the toolbars
Thank you
Willie
To disable the toolbar, simply go to start-> programs-> Toshiba-> Flashcards (or something similar, I only know that the application has the name of "Flashcards")
and there is a small configuration tool for these "Flashcards".Just go to the folder of Toshiba and the verification of the application by the top so you can turn it off.
See you soon
