Many "channels ATA" listed under "eject the material safely on the virtual machine.
Hello world:
Just create a new VM WIndows 7 Pro (clean install) as a guest in 10 Workstation running on a host windows system 7 Pro. When copying a large number of files over the network to a drive on data for the virtual machine, I noticed the noise of tale tell us to what looked like a point USB port being ejected and then reconnected. When I checked the icon 'Remove hardware safely' on the virtual machine there is a huge list indicating "Eject ATA channel 0" through channel 29? There don't seem to be valid items associated with these elements. There are also various other items that seem to be standard items for the virtual machine. I don't have it under other VM, although most of those that have been created in earlier versions of VMware Workstation and then upgraded to Workstation 10. Is this normal? Or something is running wild on this virtual machine?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards, Dave Melnyk
Hi Dave,.
It is "normal" that the majority of our virtual PCI/PCIe and SATA devices are hot pluggable. Another explanation (and workarounds, if you find it distracting) are in this thread: 10 Workstation: Windows 'Remove' Gone Wild
We had a few questions about this lately, and we have had discussions on the question of whether we could eventually add a checkbox to control if these devices are default hot pluggable.
In the meantime, feel free to ignore them or use the workarounds in the first thread I linked above.
See you soon,.

The list of all the virtual machines of an organization
Hi all
I use .net api for vcloud. I need the list of all virtual machines of an organization. How I do that?
Kamal
Hello
A paralytic can contain several virtual machines. Once, you get the use of vApp, the GetChildrenVms() for the confined list of the VM.
VAPP vapp = Vapp.GetVappByReference (customer, vAppRef);
foreach (VAPP vm in VAPP. {GetChildrenVms()})
Console.WriteLine ("" + vm.) Reference.Name);
Console.WriteLine ("" + vm.) Reference.href);
}
Creating a paralyzed man from a vAppTemplate will contain the same number of VM contained in a vAppTempalte.
If the vAppTemplate contains 3 VM inside. VApp created using the vAppTempalte would also contain the same 3 VM.
Ex: If the Ex vAppTempalte: WebApplication-vAppTemplate contains a DatabaseVM and AppServerVM.
VApp created from the Ex vAppTemplate: WebApplication-VAPP will also contain a DatabaseVM and AppServerVM.
Kind regards
Rajesh Kamal.

List of Cluster and the virtual machines running on this group
Hello
I am looking for a way to discover all of the virtual machines that belong to a cluster. In other words, I want a list that maps a cluster to all virtual machines running on it.
In the documentation of the API, I find that "ClousterComputeResouce"has a managed object to "HostSystem" reference. "
And "HostSystem" is a reference to managed object to the 'VirtualMachine'.
So I can do it like this: ClusterComputeResource-> ManagedObjectRefence-> ManagedObjectRefence (VirtualMachine)-> whatever_properties_I_need_from_the_VM (HostSystem).
However, this would cause a lot of ' Vim::get_views"calls within a"foreach"loop." It would be a deterrent to performance as the vCetner in question has ~ 50 clusters and has ~ 3500 running VMs.
I think this was going to literally kill the VirtualCenter with so many API calls.
My Question: is there an effective way to find Cluster and their respective VMs in vSphere SDK Perl.
In vSphere client, we get the tab 'Virtual Machine' when we click on the Cluster and you can see all the virtual machines that belong to this cluster. So I hope that there must be an easier way.
Thank you.
Hello
You don't need the host_view for this action. Why don't you use begin_entity for views of the vm?
my $cluster = 'cluster1. "
My $cluster_view = Vim::find_entity_view (view_type-online 'ClusterComputeResource',
filter => {"name"-online qr / ^ $cluster / I});
{if ($cluster_view)}
My $vm_views = Vim::find_entity_views (view_type-online 'VirtualMachine',begin_entity => $cluster_view.
Properties-online ['name']);
foreach {$vm_ref(@$vm_views) my
print $vm_ref--> name. » \n » ;
}
}Hope that helps!

Lists the names of all the virtual machines
I want to display a list for the name of all the virtual machines.
Get - VM export to much information, how to filter the info I need?
With the Select-Object cmdlet, like this
Get - VM | Select name
The Get - VM product objects that you pass through the pipeline ('|) ') to the Select-Object cmdlet.
The Select-Object cmdlet allows you to select one or more of the properties of the objects it receives.

My vSphere infrastructure 5 uses several data stores.
Two data warehouses are associated with NFS on different NAS shares.
I migrate VM to a data to another store.
The navigation data store, I see that the files are moved from the old data store to the new and that no file belonging to the migrated VM still does exist on the old data store.
If I look at the list of VMs on the old data store, I still see the old VM.
I see it in the list of the virtual machine on the new data store as well.
I checked that no .iso no pagefile is in the old data store.
How can I update the list of the virtual machine on the old data store?
Above all, how can I safely delete the old data store by ensuring that the virtual machine works very well on the new data store and I don't lose anything?
Concerning
Marius
This use of data store 'Phantom' is usually observed, if the current configuration of the virtual computer points to the 'old' data store (diskette, CD-ROM) or the virtual machine contains snapshots where - at the time where tone have been created - the VM has had these references. Once the snapshots are deleted from data store 'ghost' will go away from summary of the virtual machine.

List of the files in the data store for the virtual machine

If you have installed vCLI and vSphere SDK for Perl, you have extra utilities on top of what is there with the vCLI, take a look at this list: http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/viperltoolkit/viperl40/doc/vsperl_util_index.html

List of IP address and name of the virtual machine in a virtual
Hello world
Nice to be back on this forum. Actually, I'm trying to get all the Vm name and corresponding virtual center using VI SDk2.5 ipadress. Also is it possible to enumerate all ESX under Virtal Center - & gt; and all (Vm + ip) under ESX.
BTW, you must have installed VMware tool to get the IP address since that information is available of OS and not the VM itself. The property path for the IP address is guest.ipAddress.
Once you get the reference of the virtual machine, you can get it easily:
vm.getGuest () .getIpAddress)
Note: getGuest() may be null, so should be checked before calling getIpAddress().

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

Report by the virtual machine with tools obsolete and/or material email
Hi all
The subject of this thread pretty much says all this, but just to remind I want to generate a report of computer virtual tools with just e-mail and or equipment outdated, I have searched around a bit but don't seem to find all the vm where I try to exclude the VMs to date of this report, also I prefer in a format of e-mail if possible. I'd appreciate any help or links to help meet this goal.
Yes, that's what makes the - or in the condition of the Where clause.
If one of the two conditions is not met, the virtual machine will be in the report.

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
