How will I know if a host is associated with a vCenter Server

Once my 5.0 ESXi host is managed by / code with a vCenter server, there are some commands that you can perform only through the vCenter.

In particular, all-hard drive size, whole-controller SCSI and Set-VMReservations.

In case my vCenter is down, I would leave my script (PowerCLI 5.5r1) with a mistake that these operations cannot be executed until start of vCenter or the host that contains the virtual machine is no longer active with vCenter.  I think it's safe to let the user decide how he wants to move forward in this case and not build it in my script.

Is there a cmdlet to ask the host if it is associated with a vCenter Server?  When you use VI Client to connect to the host, you can see the link in the lower right part of the Summary tab that says "separate host to vCenter Server...". ».

The get-VMHost cmdlet seems like it should have this info, but I was not able to find.

Thanks for your suggestions

Maureen

Please take a look to determine vCenter management host to see if that helps.

  • How will I know what program/Application is associated with a given file extension?

    General question: How can I determine what Application is using a certain file extension? Some are well known, such as .doc for MS Word, MS Excel .xls, PDF for Adobe Acrobat. But is there a master list somewhere which is viewable by the general public?
    This question came from what I was gettnig low disk space on my hard drive and do some research, and found a group of 5 files with extension. ECW, for a total of almost 50 MB. After trying for a few hours to find on the Web, what type of program may have created these files, I let fall, back up the files on a CD and has deleted and restarted. So far, no bad consequences, but still a little scary.
    I think that all software manufacturers should have to register their extensions with MicroSoft, correct? To repeat: is there a list published, or how to find this information in the future?

  • UCS Plugin - How will I know if a blade is associated with related?

    I use the Plugin UCS to associate a Service profile with a blade. When I do, the function call returns immediately. But I want to wait that the blade be associated before proceeding. How to figure out when the blade is made combining? The UcsmBlade.status parameter is not good, it returns without return Null.

    A detailed example of a use case is described on the blog of vCO:

    http://blogs.VMware.com/Orchestrator/2011/04/sample-scenario-for-the-Cisco-UCS-Manager-plug-in.html

    Step 3, 4 and 5 of this use case are:

    3 assign the Service profile to a blade

    4. wait for the association must be true (the blade is going to be started)

    5 do something else after that depending on the result (for example, send a notification to someone)

    This should provide you with the information required to complete your use case.

    Thank you

    Igor.

  • Firefox wants to update (again!) now at version 6. How will I know that my extensions are compatible with the new version?

    I checked with the developer of the extension sites, but they do not yet report if the extension has been tested with Firefox 6.0. 3.6-4.0 switch left me with a gap in functionality of my extensions, although the switch of 4.0 to 5.0 went smoothly. I remember that the installer for 4.0 tested my extensions for compatibility before asking me to confirm if I wanted to install. 6.0, however, says he is already downloaded and just waiting for me to restart Firefox. Mozilla seems to be getting less polite and more aggressive on updates.

    When Firefox starts to install the updated version, it shows you the Add-ons that won't be Compatible with the new Firefox version that is being installed. You can cancel the Installation at this stage.

    I'm not sure about this, but you can also use - Add-on Compatibility Reporter 0.8.7

    Check and tell if its working.

  • How will I know where all the reports of users has access

    Hi gurus,

    We use the Hyperion Financial Reporting 9.3.1 & we have 80 reports & 750 users. How will I know where all the reports of users has access. Where can I find this information. I checked the SSP, it only shows the provisioing details, but not the name of the report. I also checked the Essbase.sec but no use. Where can I get the info. Kindly help me.


    Kind regards
    Kris...

    There is no tool of Hyperion to display easily groups and security filters.

    But it really depends on how you set up your security model.

    Normally, you add users into groups and assign these groups to essbase and reports (via the BEEP groups) cubes, so you can check reports have access to correct group and the users are in a good group.

    There is a security tool to export available here, hosted by Applied Olap, and underground work Olap-based:

  • How will I know if a page is bookmark

    When I bookmark on a page, I see that the star lights up in blue. However, when I come back to this page, how will I know if the page has been bookmarked before.

    Before the update, there will be a yellow star on the address bar. It is no longer available.

    Thank you for your help.

    The star in the Navigation toolbar is highlighted blue when you are on a tab that is bookmarked.

    In current Firefox released (29 and following), which are have a UI Australis, the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three button bar of Menu of Firefox at the far right of the Navigation bar and this button is always visible, if you have the bar of menus visible or hidden
    A consequence of this situation, it is that you can no longer hide the Navigation toolbar

    • There is a star as the button at the right end of the search bar on the Navigation toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show bookmarks" button next to it to open bookmarks in a menu drop-down.
      You can find "Show all bookmarks" to open the Manager of bookmarks (library) at the bottom of the drop-down list.
    • It is still possible to have the bar of menus visible through the context menu on toolbars to have menus like the bookmarks menu
    • If bookmark you a page, then 'Bookmark this Page' in the bookmarks menu replaces it with "edit this bookmark".
