License key for development in

Hi all

IM in the process of creating a powershell script that will define the common settings for the quick recovery of ESXi hosts. One of the things I want to do is enter the ESXi license key and set it via a powershell script. I guess it's pretty simple, but I don't know what method to use as a noob to powershell. Can anyone recommend a way to do this?

Dilpz

The following script will allow you to set the license key.

$licMgr = Get-View LicenseManager
$esx = Get-VMHost  | Get-View

$licKey = New-Object VMware.Vim.LocalLicenseSource
$licKey.licenseKeys = 
$licMgr.ConfigureLicenseSource($esx.MoRef, $licKey)

If your ESXi server is managed by a CV, you will probably need to set on/off functions as well.

Let me know if you need this part of the script as well.

  • HP 14 - n018us: license key for Windows 8

    Once I have replace the hard drive in my laptop, I have a Windows 10 ISO DVD to install Windows. Microsoft requires that I have the license key for Windows 8 that came with the laptop to provide the free update for Windows 10. Where can I find the license key for the Windows 8 that came with the HP laptop. It is currently being upgraded to Windows 10 and current hard drive works fine. I want to replace it with a SSD and clean install of Windows 10

    Hello:

    If you have already upgraded to W10, and it has been successfully activated, everything you need to do is clean the W10 installation media with installation you have created.

    When you get to the Setup screen, you will be prompted to enter a product key or the choice to click on "I don't have a product key."

    You select the option "I don't have a product key" and W10 install and reactivate automatically, because it has already been legally installed on your laptop.

    I had to do it on a couple of PC where I reinstalled it W10 - both when I changed the mechanical drives to SSD.

  • I've been doing a series of phone calls telling me that my license key for my Windows is about to expire. Is it a reality or just somone trying to rip me off?

    Last week to 10 days, I received lots of calls from someone called PC Support (which sound as if they come from the India) telling me that they want to access my PC to show me the problems that are reported to them from my ISP about something and real operating system Windows on the license key is about to expire.

    I suspect that it is a new scam to try to sell the product, anti-virus/malware any... but it got me wondering whether or not it is a real-world scenario.

    Can someone me one way or another?

    Thank you.

  • Is there a way to get a copy of Windows Media Center 2005 french as I have a valid license key for a version of MC in XP

    Original title: media library

    I have a HP M7330 Media Center with a dead MB machine. Changed the MB & learned, too late, "Mo tattoo" as fact by HP & cannot use the recovery partition to reinstall. I'm looking for a way to get a copy of Windows Media Center 2005 french as I have a valid license key for a version of XP MC, this license does not work with my XP Pro drive & my better half - would like to get this machine in order for the moment.

    Thanks for any help before the machine answers my sledgehammer.

    Luke

    Hello

    Windows XP Media Center is available for OEM only and if you don't have a motherboard the OEM valid, it will not activate.

    The only option would be to get a newer version of Windows if your system supports or get an OEM motherboard (HP) that you can use the recovery on.

  • I have reset my laptop and I don't have the set up cd, I have the license key for vista ultimate can I download

    I have reset my laptop and I don't have the set up cd, I have the license key for vista ultimate can I download

    Hello

    "I reset my laptop."

    What do you mean by that?

    There are several methods to reinstall Vista.

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

    Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

    If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

    Used only legitimate license key for windows 7. But I could not activate. I get the message, "the key you typed cot allows to avtivate windows on this computer".

    Can I get a configuration of single language somewhere? How can I find the license key for my installation.

    Hi Mohammed'metwally,.

    Please answer this question to get more clarity on this issue.

    • The application or program that you use the partition of the drive?

    This problem may occur if the partition table is damaged or altered. As a result, the recovery partition does not work. I'm sorry to know that you are facing this problem.

    You will not get the unique language anywhere to download setting. You have an OEM computer that comes with the product key integrated into the BIOS. The product key of Windows 8 on new machines is now integrated in the machine. It uses the Secure Boot technology. When you perform a new installation of Windows 8, the installation program ask a product key and will be automatically get it from your system and proceed with the installation.

    As Windows 8 came pre-installed, you must contact the manufacturer of the computer with this problem for more help.

  • Does anyone have a license key for first Elements 8?

    Archiving of videos of my family, I started and I am transferring my old mini DV cassettes on my computer. I own a license for first elements 13 and 11, but none of them recognizes my video camera. I downloaded from Adobe first Elements 8 and use it in a mode of assessment at the moment. This version works well with my camera. However, trial period expires soon and I contacted Adobe support for a free key but the couldn't help.

    Does someone of you could share a license key for first Elements 8 with me? He could be the guy who was the owner of this version, but didn't need any longer and it would be a great for me help.
