• Rename a virtual computer in the data store

  We have an active VM (let's call it VMabcd) and it has exactly the same thing in the data store associated with her... labeled VMDK and VMX files also named VMabcd.   We would like to change the name.   I know that I can rename a virtual computer in vCenter directory but I can also do it in the data store?  What of its vmdk and vmx files?

  to do this if you have vCenter, the simplest method is to make a Storage vMotion of the guest in question.  This will rename all that behind that same as the vCenter object files.  Or you can turn off the virtual machine and making a cold migration to a new data store.

• Technical question from the data store

  Hello everyone.

  I have a question that you can maybe answer:

  "Is it possible to have a WARNING message (check) before formatting a LUN (EMC)?"

  Let me explain:

  We currently have a datastore composed of 12 LUN (of 236 GB), and even if this isn't in the best practices of VMware, I made a mistake (und) when creating a new data store.

  Indeed, I used a logic unit number which was attached directly to a virtual machine (in Raw Device) pour set up my new data store.

  Would you have a solution that makes a data control (on the logic unit number) and which could see us the partition proposed pour extend the data store contains data!

  Thanks in advance for your answer!

  Hi Julien

  Nice to see you on communities

  The vCenter will list all LUNS that are not already in the "Add storage" wizzard data warehouses, and by definition, a RDM en of is not formatted VMFS, since the lun belongs to the VM and it met with filesystem clean so son.

  There is therefore no direct way to pour do what you're asking (UN ESX knows nothing about the data on a non-vmfs LUNs).

  Personally, plug-in a simple way: the LUN ID. All the LUNs that will be used in RDMS are presented to my ESX with UN LUN ID between 50 and 70 (f.ex.). So I know whether or not a lun is RDM.

  Otherwise maybe third-party products (rv maybe tools) can get out a report listing the VM using the RDM.

  I hope that helps!

  Best regards.

• Different drag / drop behavior of the mouse on different users on the same virtual machine Windows 10 Pro accounts

  I just upgraded to 8.1 on Mac OS X 10.11.3 Fusion "El Capitan" on a new iMac 27-inch 5K retina. The guest operating system is a new virtual machine Windows 10 Pro. I have two user accounts on the virtual machine, my local administrator account and another account local standard user. When I am logged into my account, I am able to drag and drop files to and from the guest to the normally Mac OS. As the mouse moves freely between the guest OS and the Mac. However, when I connect using the standard other account, I can't drag - move to and from the guest for the Mac OS. Also once I click into the virtual machine the mouse movement is limited to the virtual machine until I have press the buttons on the Mac to free the movement of the mouse to the Mac. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the vmware tools but the same behavior persists. Any ideas on a solution and why these two users accounts would act differently?

  Just phone with the help of VMware. They solved the problem in uninstalling and reinstalling VMware tools and change the following VMware Fusion preferences-> preferences-> General-> Gaming: to 'Never mouse optimize for games '. It has been set to 'always optimize the mouse for games '.  After that drag & drop, mouse movement works smoothly and perfectly now. Thank you VMware support!

• Why do I see virtual machines Windows 7 x 64 in double after the upgrade to Fusion 6.0?

  Join support information.  Would rather have only listed here.  The two seem to shoot to the top of the virtual machine itself.

  According to the information of the single bundle media of entries in the library of the Virtual Machine Windows 7 x 64 is actually a Virtual Machine.  So delete that which is not actually start a Virtual Machine.  (Council: Ctrl-click on the object and select Delete.)

• Machine virtual IOPS / s report, how to display the name of the data store?

  Hi guys

  I am new to the Foglight community, this is a great tool, and I learn a lot.

  Currently I am trying to create a simple table that will show me metric of my VMware environment: Virtual Machine name, Datastore IOPS and data store.

  However I can't find how to include data store name in the table, because it is not a measure of the Virtual Machine. I think I need to expand the scope of my table to include VMware Datastore, but I don't know how to do this.

  -Mark

  

  Check the options available it seems that it can be done with WCF (the frame behind the Foglight dashboards).  We recommend generally customers who plan to build views WCF take adequate training or our PSO people engaged in it.

  In any case I can help show a quick example of how it's done.

  Please try this on a local/test server.

  Go to Configuration > definition >

  

  Make sure that you are in my definition, and click the icon to add a view. then choose from the tables and trees - oriented line table

  

  Give a name to the view, go public and make a portlet/reportlet and apply

  

  Switch to the configuration tab and click the change for the lines and choose a query

  Under query, expand the VMware and scroll down

  

  Until you can select the query for virtual machines

  

  And press the set button.

  Your view should look like this

  

  Now you must select the columns.

  Each column has a value you can edit and there is a button + to add additional columns.

  Lets start with the name of the virtual machine - click on the button to change to your default column and choose the context.

  

  Click on the drop down menu to enter key and choose the current line (virtual vmware machine)

  

  Click on the drop down menu to access path and scroll down until you can select the name and then click on set.

  

  You have created a table that lists the names of all virtual machines.

  You can click on save. and then click test, choose a time and click the result. A new window will open a show the list you of virtual machines.
  From here you can continue to add additional columns, each time choosing the key entry in the current line and the path to the metric/string to display.

  For example, the name of the data store.
  I change the module

  

  Click the configuration tab and click the icon to add a column

  

  For the column value, that I chose defined context once again, the key input is the current row and for the path, I expand the node for the data store

  

  And scroll until I see the Proprietename

  

  If you save and test you will see the result

  

  Keep adding columns and the data you want, notice that you have arrows that allow you to control the order of the columns.

  Note that you can click Show advanced configuration properties

  

  This will give you the opportunity to see the properties of the extra table, such as header - giving you the opportunity to give a more meaningful name (name of the data store, the name of the virtual machine, etc.) to the column header.

  

  You can now go you drag and drop the table edge/report and under my eyes, you will see your new view

  

  Drop it in the main view

  

  I hope this has given you the starting point to build this table.

  As I said, I strongly recommend going through our WCF training if you plan build more custom views or hire software Dell PSO Organisation to help build you views that correspond to your need.

• Cannot ping virtual machine Windows 7 vm Server 2012 [Server R2 2012]

  Hi all

  I'm not sure that this is a vmware workstation or server 2012 r2 problem, but I would still ask thought.

  I have a 2012 r2 vm server and win 7 vm in a ' host-only: a private network, shared with the host country "network connection.

  I can ping the server vm win7, but cannot ping the ""Server the VM win7 ". "

  But when I point the win7 dns on the server 2012R2 (that has AD and DNS configured) I can join the virtual machine Windows 7 announcement.

  Its totally weird

  Whenever I try to win7 from the ping server, it says "Request Timed Out".

  Does anyone know how can I fix?

  I'm using VMWare Workstation 11

  Thank you

  Post edited by: Michael Hilburt

  Is there a way to get pings without demeaning the whole firewall?

  Accidentally, I put my virtual machine - Windows 7 - 4 MB RAM, and now I can't load and stop it!
  My Windows 7 virtual is stuck in start mode of Windows, but not I can't start it, nor can I stop to change the RAM to return to normal. Help! What can I do now?

  I use Macbook Air if it is useful and WM ware Fusion 6.0.3

  Hi Requiem88,

  Just to be clear, you press the Option key on the keyboard key then went in the Virtual Machine menu at the top of the screen and choose Force Shut Down who?  Looks like you force quit in the menu Apple have rather choose.  Force quit will put end to VMware Fusion, while the option Force stop menu stop permanently from Windows itself.

  See you soon,.

• How to create the new virtual machine vm existing in the data store on ESXI

  I have ESXi and couple of virtual machines.

  I have the vsphere client on Windows 7.

  I then deploy the ovf from the vsphere client vm and it began to import my VM 30 GB.

  In the morning, I realized my vm with a vmdk file file has been transferred in the data store

  But I couldn't see any virtual computer.

  Now I don't know how to turn on this vmdk file that is in my data store

• Converted to a virtual machine (Windows 2003)

  Hi @ all,

  I tried to convert a virtual machine (Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition) since an ESXi 4.0.0 Server for our new Cluster (ESXi 5.1.0). After 2 hours of waiting, the process failed at 1% with ' error: event.» DiskCloneFailedEvent.summary ".

  ESX server and the virtual machine are in the same network.

  Two weeks before I tried the same Conversion, but had to stop due to a colleague, who needs the machine urgently. At the moment the State of conversion was 9% and I think that he would have been success.

  
  

  Here are the logs of the converter and I hope, someone can help me with this question:

  Exactly, it's a common error.  It is always recommended to clean the source server if the conversion has failed or been arrested before

• List of virtual machines in the data store that is not in stock

  Hi guys

  PowerCLI rookie here, sorry for the stupid questions.

  I'm trying to clean up a bunch of singehost with local data warehouses. So I need a script that can display a list of files of virtual machine on a data store that is not used by VMs in the inventory. One of the problems is that the files on the data store, isn't every means, named exactly the same as the virtual machine in the inventory.

  Summer watching this, but I think the term "orphan" is "sent, in my view, it is:

  Changed the name of the data store, it seems that he was not supposed to be in the first screenshot.

  The first command control switch, more details in the last post in this thread

• Migration of virtual machines from a data store, and then delete the data store?

  Hello

  I have a future deployment this month and my Director wants to build a new RAID 6 array, create a store of data with the new table and then move all the VMS to the newly created data store.

  Then he asked me to take the old data store and remove it and the available space between the deleted data store and other stores of data in our shared environment. The question is when the new raid is created and vm has migrated to the new data store, which is the best way to remove the data store empty and make sure that the space available for other data stores? Any help would be appreciated...

  Greg ~.

  If all controls are met, you can go ahead and take it apart without any problem.

  I have re-iterate below checks:

  -No virtual machine is in the data store

  -The data store is not part of the cluster data store

  -The data store is not managed by the DRS storage

  -IGCS is disabled for this data store

  -The data store is not used for vSphere HA heartbeat.

  Especially highlighted 2 controls. Please note that SIOC can be enabled on the data without SDR photo store

• Script in time of latency list vm e/s and the data store the virtual machine is on

  Hello.  We have a vsphere 5.0 environment and we live a latency of IO heavy.  I'm looking for powercli script will get the latency of i/o for each virtual machine and get the data store name, to what it is now.  We will access our storage on optical fiber.  I'm trying to get a good overview of the latency of IO in a nice view in a csv file.  I found what could be a good basis to https://communities.vmware.com/thread/304827?start=0 & tstart = 0 , but I'm not sure how to get the name of the data store in the table and I think that it is written to the nfs in any case storage.  Thanks in advance for any info\advice!

  Try the next version, it includes the average latency time read/write for the virtual machine and PAHO are / s average for the virtual machine.

  Since the CSV has a row for each data store, the values for the virtual machine are repeated.

  I also added the host name

  $vmName = "VM*"
  
  $stat = "datastore.totalReadLatency.average","datastore.totalWriteLatency.average",  "datastore.numberReadAveraged.average","datastore.numberWriteAveraged.average"$entity = Get-VM -Name $vmName$start = (Get-Date).AddHours(-1)
  
  $dsTab = @{}Get-Datastore | Where {$_.Type -eq "VMFS"} | %{  $key = $_.ExtensionData.Info.Vmfs.Uuid  if(!$dsTab.ContainsKey($key)){    $dsTab.Add($key,$_.Name)  }  else{    "Datastore $($_.Name) with UUID $key already in hash table"  }}
  
  Get-Stat -Entity $entity -Stat $stat -Start $start |Group-Object -Property {$_.Entity.Name} | %{  $vmName = $_.Values[0]  $VMReadLatency = $_.Group |    where {$_.MetricId -eq "datastore.totalReadLatency.average"} |    Measure-Object -Property Value -Average |    Select -ExpandProperty Average  $VMWriteLatency = $_.Group |    where {$_.MetricId -eq "datastore.totalWriteLatency.average"} |    Measure-Object -Property Value -Average |    Select -ExpandProperty Average  $VMReadIOPSAverage = $_.Group |    where {$_.MetricId -eq "datastore.numberReadAveraged.average"} |    Measure-Object -Property Value -Average |    Select -ExpandProperty Average  $VMWriteIOPSAverage = $_.Group |    where {$_.MetricId -eq "datastore.numberWriteAveraged.average"} |    Measure-Object -Property Value -Average |    Select -ExpandProperty Average  $_.Group | Group-Object -Property Instance | %{    New-Object PSObject -Property @{      VM = $vmName      Host = $_.Group[0].Entity.Host.Name      Datastore = $dsTab[$($_.Values[0])]      Start = $start      DSReadLatencyAvg = [math]::Round(($_.Group |           where {$_.MetricId -eq "datastore.totalReadLatency.average"} |          Measure-Object -Property Value -Average |          Select -ExpandProperty Average),2)      DSWriteLatencyAvg = [math]::Round(($_.Group |           where {$_.MetricId -eq "datastore.totalWriteLatency.average"} |          Measure-Object -Property Value -Average |          Select -ExpandProperty Average),2)      VMReadLatencyAvg = [math]::Round($VMReadLatency,2)      VMWriteLatencyAvg = [math]::Round($VMWriteLatency,2)      VMReadIOPSAvg = [math]::Round($VMReadIOPSAverage,2)      VMWriteIOPSAvg = [math]::Round($VMWriteIOPSAverage,2)    }  }} | Export-Csv c:\report.csv -NoTypeInformation -UseCulture
  

• Script to list all the warehouses of data in a cluster, the virtual machines on the data store and the host of the virtual machine is on

  We have warehouses of data which are seen by more than one cluster. I need a script that will display:

  all stores of data seen by a cluster

  the virtual machines on the data store

  the host of the virtual machine is on

  the cluster the host is in

  The output I want is

  name of the store of data, the VM name, host name, the name of the Cluster

  any help would be appreciated

  Pretty sure this will do what you need:

  $report = @()
  Foreach($cluster in Get-Cluster){
      $datastores = $cluster | Get-VMHost | Get-Datastore
      foreach($datastore in $datastores){
      $vms = $datastore | Get-VM
      If ($vms.count -ge 1){
          foreach($VM in $vms){
          $object = New-Object -TypeName PSObject -Property @{
                Datastore = $datastore.Name
                VM = $VM.Name
                HostName = $VM.VMhost
                Cluster = $cluster
              }
          $report += $object
          }
  
      }
      }
  }
  $report | Export-Csv C:\Temp\VMs.csv -NoTypeInformation -UseCulture
  

  If you only want to shared data warehouses you can then use

  $datastores = $cluster | Get-VMHost | Get-Datastore | Where {$_.Extensiondata.Summary.MultipleHostAccess -eq $True}
  

  Hope this helps

• How to set vm-description/notes and get the name of the data store, where the virtual machine

  Hello guys,.
  I have vCenter Orchestrator 4.1.1 build 733 installed and it works fine, but I need your help for the following two issues:
  (1) I want to put the description/notes of a virtual machine using a workflow. But I have not found any API useful to create this workflow (I don't want custom attributes, see attachment for details).

  (2) how can I get the name of the data store, where the virtual machine? I need this name for a workflow.
  I need your help.
  Thanks in advance!

  With regard to the notes of the VM, the following code (see enclosed package) can do this:

  var oldNotes = vm.summary.config.annotation;
  If (oldNotes == null) {oldNotes = ' ' ;}}
  System.log ("Notes of VM current:" + oldNotes);
  Now put the new notes:
  Start by creating a context
  Context of var = new VcVirtualMachineConfigSpec();
  Update the annotation with the new value property
  configSpec.annotation = notes;
  launch the task to reconfigure the virtual machine with the new context
  NOTE: This is sure to apply with a virtual machine under tension
  var task = vm.reconfigVM_Task (configSpec);

  And, in what concerns the VM information, take a look at the workflow of the library: \Library\vCenter\Virtual Machine management\Others\Extract virtual machine information
