Join the host ESX to Virtual Center via the command line script

Question for the guru-, we are spinning up to our servers ESX 3.5 using HP OpsWare. It would be very helpful if someone could point me in the direction of a function/command line script that I could launch the ESX Server, allowing him to join a server VC.

Thanks in advance

Caisse hostops.pl included in the VIMA/vMA or the VIPerl Toolkit.  Does exactly this.

  • Is there a way to generate a report via the command-line script or groovy?

    I would like the option to generate a report (for example, model "Host physical load summary") from the command line, where I will provide the settings he needs.   Is there a way to do in groovy?

  • Run the command line script AfterFX

    Hi all

    I'm trying to run a script from the command line AfterFX.exe and I get the message: "unable to run the script at line 1. Syntax error.

    If I run the same Script AE editor script file, it works perfectly

    Here is the command line that I use:

    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe after effects CS6\Support Files\AfterFX.exe" indefinite display - noui s 'D:\Product\Watermark\Rendering\WatermarkedSecuritySample.jsx '.

    Someone has an idea of what may cause this error? I tried to run the script directly from the command line like

    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe after effects CS6\Support Files\AfterFX.exe" indefinite display - noui s 'alert('1') '.

    and it works very well for small script but mine is way big to do

    As you can probably guess with the 'watermark' and 'Security' in the name of the file, I can't post here, the script file, all I can say is that line 1 is:

    {

    projectName = "D:\\Product\\WatermarkTemplate.aep"; var

    I tried to replace the entire script 'alert('1')'; and it causes the same error when running it from the command line

    Also, if anyone knows where I can find the command line arguments AfterFX.exe description, I'd be very happy... everybody talks about aerender.exe, but I need these options to AfterFX.exe

    Thanks for your help

    Have you tried using "-r" instead of "-s"?

    ("-s" argument is a script; and to "-r" argument is a path to the script)

  • How can I register a virtual machine in the command line?

    I want to automate the registration of virtual machines in my VMWare Fusion.

    I have the vmx file. I can do this by using the command line?

    If not, how can I do it automatically?

    Thanks in advance.

    There are two main methods you can interact with the Virtual Machines outside user of VMware Fusion, the VIX API and vmrun interface and with the registration of these two commands are not supported with VMware Fusion (or VMware Workstation.* (* Non-exclussive VM)}.)  Recording controls are used primarily with vSphere.  VMware Server also supported recording orders.

    BTW, from a Machine virtual Finder by double-clicking on the file of configuration of Machine virtual package or .vmx if it is already running and is not created through the interface user of VMware Fusion, for example created in VMware Workstation VM and copied on a Mac, created manually or via a script solution.  Although she will then have to be manually recorded.  Registered/not registered in this context the Virtual Machine appears in the library of virtual machines VMware Fusion.

  • Access iCloud drive via the command line

    I wanted to write a small script to access iCloud by car via the command line, and to my surprise, this seems to be a very special place that is not displayed in /Volumes or even in my home directory is Dropbox.

    Veterinarians here know the way, if not to enlightenment, then to iCloud drive?

    Thanks in advance.

    It is actually a rather interesting problem. I did research I should have done before I came here and found that iCloud Drive is accessible here:

    ~/Library/Mobile\ Documents

    What is interesting is that the many, many interesting things found in this directory when you reveal all the files through ls - al, is that custom directories seem to appear. Even more interesting, in the Finder, select go > go to folder... and that type path and it does not recognize the path. Type ~/Library/, and then of course that's fine and see you the directory of Documents Mobile...

  • Creation of files via the command line

    I'm trying to create a file of access database via a command line similar to right-click, click New and then click Microsoft Access database not only from a window (unless I can call this command line window).  Does anyone know how to do this?

    The Right-click/New command is really just make a copy of a file stored in your templates folder.  So to do the same thing from the command line, you would simply use the command COPY and make a copy of your template file (an access database empty).

  • How to upgrade an ESXi host from the command line

    Sorry for bumping an old thread. I'm new to ESXi. I'm under ESXi 5.5 build 1331820 and I am at a loss how to apply patches.

    Preferably, I would like to apply all the relevant patches through console (SSH). Can someone give me pointers how to do this? Thank you

    Moderator note (a.p.): branched to a new discussion of software patch to version 1331820?

    Welcome to the community,

    on how to patch a ESXi host from the command line, please see for example http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2008939

    Basically download you the latest hotfix package and install it using the command esxcli . That said, please make sure that your hardware is supported by the patch that you want to apply (see http://www.vmware.com/go/hcl). You can also do before installing the patch, is to do a "dry - run" to know what . VIBS are removed and which are installed by the patch. To do this add -dry - run to the esxcli command line.

    In the case where something goes wrong, you can revert to the previous state by pressing SHIFT-R , while the ESXi hosts begins the start-up.

  • [Solved] Possible to enroll the workstation via the command line (Linux)?

    Hi all:

    Under Linux Mint or Ubuntu, the ToolTip that should allow me to save the product key just won't display, making me unable to use the program. Normally, the system should ask me a root password after I click to enter, but nothing happens here, and I can't find a problem in any log file (by clicking on the option adds nothing in the newspaper at all). I try this on a new brand operating system installation and using the installer to update from the Web site.

    Is it possible that I could fix this, or as asking the question, save the product via the command line key instead?

    Thank you!

    Is it possible that I could fix this, or as asking the question, save the product via the command line key instead?

    In a Terminal, use the following command and use your real serial number instead of the fake one which is indicated.

    / usr/lib/VMware/bin/vmware-vmx-new-sn 1A2B3-C4D5E-6F7G8-H9I0J-1K2L3M

  • Is it possible to disable hardware acceleration via the registry or the command line?

    We manage a large number of computers used for the display of information - no keyboard/mouse interaction. We have encountered a problem with some SWF files and I'd like to test if it's resolved by disabling hardware acceleration. Is it possible to change this setting remotely (via the registry or the command line or other means)?

    Hello

    Yes, you can disable hardware acceleration on machines using the mms.cfg file.  Information on the use of the file mms.cfg to control the behavior of Flash Player is in Chapter 4 of the Guide Administration of Adobe Flash Player for Flash Player 14 | Adobe Developer Connection.
