Is it possible to stop the alert on a single virtual machine?

Hello

We use foglight (vfoglight) for the management of virtual environments... every time a new virtual machine is added to the ESX host, it picks up all the rules applied to this region and throws events in the console if disk, cpu, memeory limits are reached, we also use netmonitor agent to alert when VM spill.  The question we have is that our operators monitor the console, but we don't want / need to have the calls recorded for test servers, etc... so, is there a simple (:)) medium flip of a switch in foglight, that doesn't mean no alerts triggered for certain systems?

Thanks in advance

Several options, actually.

Easiest might be to create a service in the function Builder, include all test servers, I hope by creating a "rule to include a group of components" and then make a power failure permanently for this service in the Administration-> Setup Support & -> failure-> create a blackout at the request-> suspend alarms

  • Is it possible to hide the news of Vmware's Virtual Machine?

    Hello just a small matter of team.

    Hello

    It is possible that you could change some things in the registry, but there are many other "clues" as something being a virtual machine, such as the presence of tools VM, MAC address, drivers, etc.

  • Possibility to export the alert list?

    VRealize Operations Manager 6.1, it is possible to export the alerts list, such as CSV or text file?

    Okay, another way to do it, you can create a report model with "alerts that are currently active", then you can run the report on vSphere World object model, it will generate a pdf and csv file.

  • Not possible to export a list of virtual machines that are created in the past 7, 30, 120 and 180 days since an imported csv file containing the date of creation of virtual machine

    Not possible to export a list of virtual machines that are created in the past 7, 30, 120 and 180 days since an imported csv file containing the date of creation of virtual machine. My questions is the correct statement to the variable: $VmCreated7DaysAgo: $_CreatedOn "-lt" $CDate7.

    # #SCRIPT_START

    $file = "C:\Users\Admin\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\08-18-2014\VM-Repo.csv".

    $Import = import-csv $file

    $VMCreatedLast7RDayRepoFile = "C:\Users\Admin\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\08-18-2014\Last7Days.csv".

    $start7 = (get-Date). AddMonths(-1)

    $CDate7 = $start7. ToString('MM/dd/yyyy')

    $VmCreated7DaysAgo = $Import | Select-object - property name, Powerstate, vCenter, VMHost, Cluster, file, Application, CreatedBy, CreatedOn, NumCpu, MemoryGB | Where-Object {$_.} CreatedOn - lt $CDate7} | Sort-Object CreatedOn

    Write-Host "$TotalVmCreated7DaysAgo VMs created in 7 days" - BackgroundColor Magenta

    Invoke-Item $VMCreatedLast7RDayRepoFile

    # #SCRIPT_END

    You can use the New-Timespan cmdlet in the Where clause, it returns the time difference between 2 DateTime objects.

    An example of this cmdley

    New-TimeSpan-start (Get-Date). AddDays(-7)-end (Get-Date). Select days - ExpandProperty

    In your case, you could do

    Where {(New Timespan-démarrer ([DateTime] $_.))} CreatedOn) - end $start7). {7 days - gt}

    But beware of negative numbers.

  • VMware Fusion 6 Professional - where is the possibility of locking VMware using a single virtual machine and do not allow the creation of new virtual machines?

    This is a quote from the VMware Fusion Professional 6 product page:

    VMware Fusion 6 Professional comes with IT administration tools to help you deploy VMware Fusion using Apple or a management solution third Mac as of JAMF's Casper Suite. Further reduce the cost of support of Windows desktop using the mode of single virtual machine that limits user access to the library of the Virtual Machine, the ability to create virtual machines or migrate PCs and reduces the options of the menu.

    Where can I find these IT administration tools?  I want to block my VMware users to a single virtual machine so that they can not blow by creating new virtual machines, etc.

    How can I do this?

    Thank you!

    Glitch004,

    You could follow the steps to activate the single mode of VM:

    1. turn power off all running VMS and out the merger.

    2. Add the following line to/Library/Preferences/VMware Fusion / config

    installerDefaults.simplifiedUI = 'TRUE '.

    3 restart merger and you will find:

  • Can I use the same windows on my virtual machine?

    I had windows pre-installed in my dell laptop (Latitude E6420). I did not have the cd key but I extracted using a program called Magical jelly bean key finder. Now, I have the following information on my windows installation

    Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1
    Product no.: XXXXXXXX
    Installed from media "OEM."

    Now, I want to install linux on my machine and use the current windows in a virtual machine inside the linux host. Is is possible if I completely uninstall this windows of my computer and reinstall the virtual machine with the same key?
    I'm not very familiar with this also can someone guide me what are the steps I have to take if this is possible.

    Hi Andre,

    Thank you for your answer, but this does not completely answer my question. I also read that OEM installation does not install the same windows on another machine (virtual machine is like different machine even if I do this on the same machine) and installation of the mine is OEM type.

    More important still, how install windows in the virtual environment? If I format the computer and install linux, in addition to this install virualbox and install inside windows that use the cd - key and it will work. ? I doubt it because the windows is already activated in this machine.

    The extract of the contract (EULA) for Windows 7 and applies to the retail and OEM of Windows 7 versions. So, Yes, you can reinstall it in a Virtual Machine.

    Yes, you will need to format the machine under Linux, then reinstall Windows 7 in a computer program virtual suitable as Oracle Virtual Box 4.2, VMWare Player 5.0 or VMWare Workstation. You can then use the product key located on the COA sticker to reactivate the license.

  • Apply the Base Coat in a virtual machine

    Is it possible to apply a base layer (base layer of provisioning) to a virtual machine? I created the virtual machine and he joined our field, he has an image of Windows 7 on it. The Mirage client has been installed to it by group policy, and it appeared in Pending Devices. I select Base Layer commissioning and it passes the validation and first appears, but then nothing happens. I am connected to the virtual machine as an administrative user. The window of the notification on the VM area said that the status of the connection is "connected", but the current Action is "rest". A pop up sometimes appears saying that a new base layer is applied, but the status bar does not move, and it really seems as if nothing is happening. Is it possible to apply a base coat to another virtual machine?

    Thank you.

    It is possible. A virtual machine is treated as a physical machine with Mirage.

  • Disable the clichés for individual virtual machines?

    Hi all

    Is it possible to disable support for snapshot for individual virtual machines, perhaps via a parameter for it?  Or is the closest answer you to put all its virtual disks in independent mode?  Try to see how to better meet the requirements that certain suppliers impose that the VM/device does not catch instant and thought that the best solution is to disable the feature for the specific VM (s) only.  Thank you!

    You can watch the snapshot.maxSnapshots configuration setting. See KB 1031280 for more information.

  • Deleting the same files of many virtual machines remotely

    Hi all

    I tried to delete the same file several virtual machines remotely using the following script PowerCLI:

    $a = Get - VM | %{

    foreach ($nic as $_.) Guest.Nics) {}
    Write-output $nic. IPAddress
    }
    }
    foreach ($i in $a)
    {$b = get-WmiOBJECT-query "SELECT * from CIM_DataFile where Name='C:\\test\\deleteme.exe'"-computername $i}
    $b.delete)

    }

    It works perfectly when I run the script on the host virtual machines while I am running the script PowerCLI. When I Connect-viserver to another host however and try to run the script, I get the dreaded "RPC server is unavailable error (HRESULT: 0x800706BA)" for Get-WmiObject.  Virtual machines don't have Windows Firewall and have all TCP/IP, RPC and WMI services started, so who could eliminate any possibility.

    I am also able to run other scripts that use the Get-wmiobject across all virtual machines such as scripts to change the DNS or Netbios name across many machines on different hosts.

    Any comments would be greatly appreciated and please feel free to comment if you know maybe other ways which can delete files on multiple virtual machines in any other way.  Installation PowerCLI to run the script locally on each host would be a laborious process to do.

    Thank you very much!

    To solve the problem with the quotes, you can use double quotes inside the string. Like this:

    «del "«c:\documents and settings\text.exe»»»

    Or you can use for the string single quotes and double quotes inside:

    "del"c:\documents and settings\text.exe"

  • Set the priority of restarting a virtual machine

    Hello

    I'm trying to set the priority of restarting a virtual machine in a cluster. I worked along THIS DISCUSSION to create this script:

    var myVcClusterDasConfigInfo = new VcClusterDasConfigInfo() ; 
    var myVcClusterDasVmConfigSpec = new VcClusterDasVmConfigSpec() ; 
    myVcClusterDasVmConfigSpec.operation = VcArrayUpdateOperation.add; 
    var myVcClusterDasVmConfigInfo = new VcClusterDasVmConfigInfo() ;
    myVcClusterDasVmConfigInfo.key = VM;
    myVcClusterDasVmConfigInfo.restartPriority =  VcDasVmPriority.high;
    myVcClusterDasVmConfigSpec.info = myVcClusterDasVmConfigInfo;
    var myVcClusterDasVmConfigSpecArray = new Array() ; 
    myVcClusterDasVmConfigSpecArray.push( myVcClusterDasVmConfigSpec ); 
    var myVcClusterConfigSpecEx = new VcClusterConfigSpecEx() ; 
    myVcClusterConfigSpecEx.dasConfig = myVcClusterDasConfigInfo; 
    myVcClusterConfigSpecEx.dasVmConfigSpec = myVcClusterDasVmConfigSpecArray; 
    Cluster.reconfigureComputeResource_Task( myVcClusterConfigSpecEx, true );
    

    Where Cluster and VM are objects of the WF input.

    Executions of thoughts scripts, however, in the CR, I get the error «the parameter of {entry.@enum.» InvalidDasConfigArgument.EntryForInvalidArgument} is not valid for the cluster.

    It's simple... but I just can't cope.

    Thank you guys

    Also I just realized... that the method I used is deprecated... grrr

    Here's the correct one:

    var myVcClusterDasVmSettings = new VcClusterDasVmSettings();
    myVcClusterDasVmSettings.restartPriority=VcClusterDasVmSettingsRestartPriority.fromString(priority);
    
    var myVcClusterDasVmConfigInfo = new VcClusterDasVmConfigInfo();
    myVcClusterDasVmConfigInfo.key=VM;
    myVcClusterDasVmConfigInfo.dasSettings=myVcClusterDasVmSettings;
    
    var myVcClusterDasVmConfigSpec = new VcClusterDasVmConfigSpec() ;
    myVcClusterDasVmConfigSpec.operation = VcArrayUpdateOperation.add;
    myVcClusterDasVmConfigSpec.info = myVcClusterDasVmConfigInfo;
    
    var myVcClusterDasVmConfigSpecArray = new Array() ;
    myVcClusterDasVmConfigSpecArray.push( myVcClusterDasVmConfigSpec );

  • What is the advantage to affect multiple virtual machines in a data store?

    Hello

    Quite a question stupid and basic, but I can't answer . What is the advantage of having multiple virtual machines in a store of VMFS data instead of having each VM in another VMFS data store? (eg. 3 VMs in 1 data store or 3 data warehouses and each virtual machine in one of them). I can only think about the ease of management for storage administrator because it creates only a single large LUN.

    Thank you

    By allowing multiple virtual machines in a data store, you can run more than 256 virtual machines in a DRS cluster.

    As a host has a limit of 256 scsi identification numbers, which means that it accesses no more than 255 LUNS shared. 1 scsi ID is used for local storage.

    In a DRS cluster as each host must be mapped to the same data warehouses to ensure that virtual machines can be moved on the cluster and run on any of the hosts.

    Now in my life as an architect VMware PSO I saw that a lot of virtual machines that require a single data store. The main reason to isolate a virtual machine on a data store must provide sufficient i/o performance. This can be achieved with other solutions than to isolate a virtual machine on a data store. Having a properly architected storage subsystem is crucial, vSphere can get out of a very large number of the IOPS / s. With technologies such as SIOC and DRS for storage, you can check that the virtual machines receive IO performance according to the needs.

  • 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

    Hey BC Community!

    Well, I may have missed in the docs (and if I have, please do not hesitate to show it to me) but I was curious to know if it was possible to change the default javascript alert popup that says "1 item added to cart" to something more pleasant as perhaps a green bar that temporarily shows downstairs which said "added to shopping cart." I would create a jquery script to intercept the default alert?
