I need a way to search search all the .vmx files

I have a problem with vMotions in vCenter 6.0 I migrant to ESXi 5.5 with standard switches to a vCenter 6.0 with distributive switches.  For your information, here is the process.

(1) unplug the host to vCEnter 5.5

(2) add a host to vCenter 6.0

(3) migration of ESXI 5.5 to 6.0 ESXi host with the installation of a standard switch.

4) migrate to 6.0 with standard switch ESXi ESXi 6.0 with D-switch.

Full migration.  The reason for the double jump is that esxi 55 can't change host and network to a switch-d so I have to get to ESXi 6.0 first.

It all works very well, but for some reason, the .vmx file doesn't change not the port group. She is always present the standard switch. How ever VMS are on the rise and connected, the web client shows the port of switch-D group.  But when I do a vMotion it changes again in the d switch and the VM crashes.

I have a case open with VMware to solve this, but I need to get the other VMS migrate without failure.

The explanation may have been a bit long-winded, but here's what I need.

I'm OK with PowerCLI but it is a bit outside my experience.  Can we create a script for watching all the ethernet ports in the .vmx for all virtual machines files see what port on their group name?

Thanks for any help

Try like this

Get - VM | Select Name,

@{N = "PG"; E = {(Get-NetworkAdapter-VM $_ |)} {(Sélectionnez-ExpandProperty NetworkName) - join ' |'}}

  • How can I register all of the VMX files found in a list of stores of data with new names

    Hello-

    I'm trying to find a way to search through a given list of data and each discover a warehouse. VMX file, add this machine in the inventory I want to prepend the name of the machine as something different. That is to say, instead of "Machine1", I wish it were registetred as "auto-Computer1.  So, imagine I have an empty data center with 4 warehouses of data stored in a table $arrDatastoreToInclude.  I want to loop through each of these data stores and add all the VMX files I found back in the inventory.

    I know that I can use the following to get data warehouses I want:

    $dsindatacenter = get-data center $DataCenterName | Get-Datastore? | {$arrDatastoreToInclude - contains $_.} Name}

    But I have no idea how to analyze these data stores for the VMX files and what command to add them in the inventory.  Can anyone help?

    Try the following, it is based on the script of the position that Robert mentioned.

    You will need to provide a file (in $VMFolder) where unregistered virtual machines will be stored.

    The Set-VM cmdlet will take care of the rename.

    $DatacenterName = "MyDatacenter" $arrDatastoreToInclude = "DS1","DS2","DS3","DS4"
    
    $dc = Get-DataCenter $DataCenterName $dsindatacenter =  Get-Datastore -Datacenter $dc | ?{$arrDatastoreToInclude -contains $_.Name}
    
    $VMFolder = "MyFolder"
    $ESXHost = Get-VMHost -Location $dc | select -First 1
    foreach($Datastore in $dsindatacenter) {
        # Collect .vmx paths of registered VMs on the datastore     $registered = @{}
        Get-VM -Datastore $Datastore | %{$_.Extensiondata.LayoutEx.File | where {$_.Name -like "*.vmx"} | %{$registered.Add($_.Name,$true)}}
    
       # Set up Search for .VMX Files in Datastore    New-PSDrive -Name TgtDS -Location $Datastore -PSProvider VimDatastore -Root '\' | Out-Null    $unregistered = @(Get-ChildItem -Path TgtDS: -Recurse |         where {$_.FolderPath -notmatch ".snapshot" -and $_.Name -like "*.vmx" -and !$registered.ContainsKey($_.Name)})
        Remove-PSDrive -Name TgtDS
       #Register all .vmx Files as VMs on the datastore   foreach($VMXFile in $unregistered) {
            New-VM -VMFilePath $VMXFile.DatastoreFullPath -VMHost $ESXHost -Location $VMFolder |
            Set-VM -Name ("Auto-" + $_.Name)
       }
    }
    

    Unregistered virtual machines will be saved with Displayname that is present in the VMX file.

    If this would cause a conflict with VM already registered, you can use the Name of the cmdlet New-VM parameter

  • A way to track where all the Var Sub are applied?

    Is there a way of tracking where all the substitution variables are used in the reports?

    Either in the reports or scripts of calc, either in a 3rd format, if there is one.

    We don't want to individually open each script and scan for use of the var sub, or open each report and see if it is used.

    Not integrated in the product.  Report and scripts scripts of calc being regular files only to the operating system, your best bet is to use all the tools your operating system makes available to search for text.  Windows will do this directly from the browser.  UNIX (and Windows, if you wanted to) have grep, which is probably even better because it will spit the names of files and show you the lines that contain the subvar.

  • I lost all the photos, files and programs, can someone help me please?

    I did a system restore (I think) and lost all the photos, files and programs.  Can someone tell me please how do I get back them?

    Looks like your user profile has been corrupted in some way and XP connected to a new profile.  This means that when you connect, you see one of your stuff and can be also lack all the other programs you may have installed previously.

    Note that the system restore do not know or care about the personal files on your system.

    Unless there's a disaster or instead of a system restore you done a system recovery files would be still on your system somewhere - you just find them... and when you find them, you can correct what happened.  If you have made a recovery of the system instead of a system restore, then all is lost and you need to recover from a backup.

    Have you performed a search of Windows to see if you can find some of these photos and files?    For example, you could search for something like "Resume.doc" or a file name that you remember exactly to see if it is anywhere on your system and where it is.

    Why don't you get in Windows Explorer and (assuming that XP is installed on your C drive), navigate to this folder:

    C:\Documents and Settings

    Below, you will see that each user on your system has their own folder for their personal belongings.  You will see also some folders listed user that you do not recognize, but that's normal.

    Under the folder of each user, there is another folder, as "Documents of Jose" and under this 'Jose music' and «De Jose Pictures»  Dig a little and check them all to see if you can find your missing stuff.

    Just take a look in the Control Panel, add/remove programs to see if "missing" programs are still installed, but all not available when you are logged in (you don't have to 'do' something - just look at).

    Assuming that you can find your missing stuff, determine where we (which will make feel you better knowing that it is not really gone), then report back and someone can help you straighten things.

  • Need help updated the VMX file on several Virtual Machine

    All,

    Can anyone help with a problem I'm having?  Here is a brief explanation of what is happening and what we need to solve.

    Recently we found out that we need to add a line in the file VMX of several virtual machines.  In the past, I was able to do this, but would have cold start the virtual machine for the changes to take effect.  Starts cold won't be a problem, because we can program it.

    However, no one knows a way to add this line in the file VMX virtual machines in a cluster.

    Here's the line I need added:

    Devices.hotplug = "false".

    Here is a script that was used earlier (esx 3.0 days) to keep the VM tools updated on reboot.  At this point, if the virtual machine has been turned on, this change could not do through the UI.  However, this script worked to update the .vmx file and then we have cold reboots for the changes to take effect.

    Get-viserver - < Server > - < user > - < password >

    $viview = get-Cluster-name NOMCLUSTER | Get - VM | foreach-object {get-view ($_.ID)}
    $viview | {foreach-object
    $vmConfigSpec = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec
    $vmConfigSpec.Tools = new-Object VMware.Vim.ToolsConfigInfo
    $vmConfigSpec.Tools.afterPowerOn = 'True '.
    $vmConfigSpec.Tools.afterResume = 'True '.
    $vmConfigSpec.Tools.beforeGuestStandby = 'True '.
    $vmConfigSpec.Tools.beforeGuestShutdown = 'True '.
    $vmConfigSpec.Tools.ToolsUpgradePolicy = "UpgradeAtPowerCycle".
    $_. ReconfigVM ($vmConfigSpec)
    }

    The exact script can be found in Disable HotPlug

  • Is this OK to remove most or all the *.log files?

    He is allowed to delete most or all the *.log files, or would be a serious mistake?

    I never used for anything else than to troubleshooting, then very rarely.  So I would delete them to your heart's content.  However, I must point out that they do not have enough disk space amount to something meaningful, so there is really no need to worry about them.

    I hope this helps.  Good luck.

  • All THE Windows files suddenly called "$NtUninstall" followed by a lot of numbers.

    All files in the windows in the index (or whatever that is called) are called "$NtUninstall" followed by a lot of numbers.  I'm afraid to turn off this option.  What to do?  Is this a virus?

    All files in the windows in the index (or whatever that is called) are called "$NtUninstall" followed by a lot of numbers.  I'm afraid to turn off this option.  What to do?  Is this a virus?

    It seems that if you have enabled the option "show the hidden files and folders".  If you want to re - hide these files:

    • Click Start > My Documents
    • Click on the menu Tools, then Folder Options
    • Click the view tab
    • Scroll down and select the radio button for "do not show hidden files and folders".
    • OK your way out

    The files of $ $NTUninstallKBxxxxxx are the files that the system creates for use if you ever decide that you want to uninstall the corresponding Windows updates.

    As a general rule, you must uninstall not Windows updates unless you can specifically identify an update as causing a problem.  Thus, some people want to delete all the $NTUninstall files in order to earn a little extra space on the hard disk.

    Although deleting these files generally will not be free very much space, if you are interested, check out this article--> http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Hotfix_backup.htm

    I recommend that you leave the files where they are and re - hiding as described above.

  • LR to read the metadata of the file, automatically or manually all the configuration files

    Hello

    I would like to know how to configure LR for the following use cases:

    1. Read the metadata from all the photo files once.
    2. Always read all files, so "to start" stage, on a regular or - ideally - on basis of evolution into a file.

    I already know how to "read metadata" for individual or selected, files but my questions are in regards to pictures of my catalog.

    Another way to look at this is: how to select all the images? Is it possible to say to LR to read the metadata for the selected images and apply "import disc settings' as the default for conflicts?

    I don't understand what some of the implications of are, as a decline in performance in the section files/XMP metadata are only a subset of the LR metadata keeps in the catalog, for example flags, the collection members, develop the story, etc. are all not stored in XMP as I understand it - and it's good for me.

    All my files are JPG or TIFF, so the XMP section is contained in the files, not in separate sidecar XMP files. On my file system my photos are usually organized in a folder structure as follows: J:\Pictures\Year\Month\Event.

    Thank you very much!

    Stefan

    1. Select all Photos (click on all of the photographs, turn off filters, expand all the batteries, then Ctrl + A) then the metadata-> read metadata from files

    2. cannot be done. Reading metadata from files must be started manually.
