It is better to install vMA 5 if I already use PowerCli to do a lot of my script?

I have been using PowerCLI for awhile now and love it.  I have the vMA 5 installed in my lab at home and I use it a little.  The main reason I used the vMA is to collect some syslogs.  I can also run some scripts perl at the VMAs as well.

I can't do with PowerCLI from the administrative point of view I can do with the vMA 5?  Thanks for your comments!

As everyone has already mentioned, if you are familiar and prefer PowerCLI and more importantly if your management platform is Windows, then you must continue using them. vMA is just a device for Linux with installed vCLI which includes vSphere SDK for Perl for convenience, vCLI can be installed on other Windows systems or taken Linux support. Out of vSphere 5, there is not a collector of syslog for Windows or you can use the syslog collector that is in the VCSA, it is no longer supported in vMA 5.

If you want to run syslog (which the syslog collector is just syslog-ng), you may do so on vMA 5.0 but it would be unsupported. Here are the steps if you haven't seen this already - http://www.virtuallyghetto.com/2011/07/free-linux-windows-syslog-alternatives.html

At the end of the day, all the features of vSphere are exposed through the vSphere API, this is true if it is consumed as a PowerCLI, vSphere SDK for Perl or any other vSphere SDK. So everything you can do a SDK development kit, you can do in the other. Depends on the platform of choice and what you are comfortable with

    If you have Windows XP, Windows 8 might be bit overwhelming, though, you can familiarise yourself with it. Personally, I'd go with Windows 7 If you can get it.

    5. in case I choose Windows 8, MS will support not me, technically, by phone,

    That's right, you will get support from the manufacturer, because its their equipment. In addition, you can get support here in the forums.

    6 but if I install, first of all, windows 7 (legally) and subsequently UPGRADE to Windows 8.

    Yes, you will have 90 days of free technical support through Microsoft.

  • Software re - install requires XP SP2 but I am already using SP3

    My PC crashed several weeks ago and I sent him to recover as much as possible. I was already working with WINDOW XP Pro SP3 update when the incident happened and everything worked very well. Unfortunately, I lost a few programs (Pinnacle's video editing software - Studio Plus Version 11) in the process.

    While trying to load, I get an error message that says I have to have SP2 installed upgrading to continue.  As I said, I had already used SP3 is how to reset my system after the crash.  Microsoft does support SP2 and has no practical solution.  Software is also is no longer supported and all the world wants upgrade me to the most recent (WINDOWS 7 or VISTA, new video, new hardware for video capture, editing software, etc.)

    Is it possible that I can get everything working properly (as it was previously)? The obvious answer is that SP3 should take care of it, but having the SP3 (instead of SP2) upgrade is what prevents the installation. How can I overcome the requirement for SP2 to SP3 is already there?

    Does this solve the problem you are having?

  • I'll be able to install Windows 10 from scratch and use my Vista license to activate Windows 10?

    Original title: 10 free for Vista Windows?

    Hello

    I know that Windows 10 will be a free Windows 7 upgrade or 8/8.1 for the first year.  I run Vista Ultimate, and I would like to upgrade to Windows 10 as well.  I'm not interested in upgrading my Vista installation - it's almost 10 years and it's time to start over.  I'll be able to install Windows 10 from scratch and use my Vista license to activate Windows 10?  I totally understand don't want not to support an upgrade of a system of directly to 10 Microsoft Windows Vista, but Vista licenses will be able to 'upgrade' to Windows 10 licenses?  I have not found information on it online.  Everything speaks to us (ameioration) for Windows 7/8/8.1 for Windows 10.  It would be a shame for Microsoft to extend an olive branch to some legitimate users of Windows and others do not.

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media.

More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.
