Migration of vm to another folder using powercli

Hi guys,.

I'm migrating some hosts between 2 different virtual centers and will have all the entrants of the virtual machine on the new virtual Center placed by default in the folder "Discovered virtual machine."  I'm trying to use powercli to move the virtual machine linux to a specific folder and windows of the virtual machine to a different folder.  However, I was unable to do so and was hoping that someone here can help.  I am new to using powercli.  Here is what I tried:

Get-Datacenter "XXX" | Get folder "Discovered virtual machine | Get - vm | Where-Object {$_.} PowerState - eq "Receptor"} | Get-vmguest | Where-Object {$_.} {OSFullName-like "* Linux *"} | Move-VM-Destination 'Linux '.

Looks like that move-vm does not like the input it receives from get-vmguest.  However, it is as the input to get - vm, but I can't seem to get a list of virtual machines linux just by using the get - vm command.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

-Simran

Get-Datacenter "XXX" | Get folder "Discovered virtual machine | Get - vm | Where-Object {$_.} PowerState - eq "Receptor" - and $_. {ExtensionData.Config.GuestFullName - like ' * Linux * "} | Move-VM-Destination 'Linux '.

    The first shot must also have a data store setting.

    Move-VM -VM $vm -Destination $NewHost -Datastore $ds -Confirm:$falseMove-VM -VM $vm -Destination $ResourcePool -Confirm:$false
    

    Unless your data warehouses are shared between the 2 groups and you intend to keep these warehouses of data with the new cluster.

    Hello

    I copied the .thunderbird folder to another folder on my computer (Ubuntu on Dell Laptop) for back up, re-open Thunderbird: accounts all parties; asking me to set up an e-mail account. I deleted the duplicate folder, but Auditors have always disappeared when I restart (.thunderbird original file still in the original location).

  • How copy/paste or copy/move a file to another folder in Windows XP

    I need to copy/paste or copy/move the files from one folder to program existing to another folder.

    Use the movement commands to copy do?

    Hi Jimmyjack1941,

    I suggest you to read the following articles for more information.

    These are the items if you use the Windows Explorer to perform operations:

    To copy a file or folder

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/windows_fcab_copy_file.mspx?mfr=true

    To move a file or folder

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/windows_fcab_move_files.mspx?mfr=true

    You can follow these commands to move and rename the file or folder using the command prompt:

    Moves files and renames files and directories.

    To move one or more files:
    MOVE [/Y | /-Y] [drive:] [path] file1 [,...] destination

    To rename a directory:
    MOVE [/Y | /-Y] [drive:] [path] dirname1 repert2

    [drive:] [path] file1

    Specifies the location and name of the file or files you want to move.

    destination

    Specifies the new location of the file. Destination can consist of a drive letter and colon, a directory name, or a combination. If you move a single file, you can also include a file name if you want to rename the file when you move it.

    [drive:] [path] dirname1

    Specifies the directory you want to rename.

    repert2

    Specifies the new name of the directory.

    /Y

    Deletes the request for confirmation that you want to replace an existing destination file.

    Y

    Causes of request for confirmation that you want to replace an existing destination file.

    The switch /Y may be present in the COPYCMD environment variable. This can be derived with / y on the command line. Default value is quick to replace unless is running of command MOVE within a command script.

    Example:

    move c:\windows\temp\*.* c:\temp

    Move the temporary directory c:\windows\temp files in the root, this is of course assuming you have the windows\temp folder.

    Note: Microsoft does not move the files/folders installed application.

    Hope this information helps.

    I am using Windows XP SP3, just before I drag and drop the file into another folder in my windows explore. Suddenly, he is creating shortcuts for moving file. I'm not able to move the file by drag / move the mouse, it is possible that by cutting and Paste(Ctrl+X) using the keyboard. Why?

    Maybe your 'Alt' key is stuck.

    This will apply even if I change the file existing on the record 1 (i.e. If I change an exixting file in folder 1, this change should reflect by creating a new file with timstamp)

  • Cannot copy files and folders to another folder

    Whenever I try to COPY a group of files and folders 1 folder to another folder, Vista wants only to allow me to MOVE them.  What is my problem?

    Select the files to copy (using the command CTRL to select more than one non sequential order) and once they are all chosen type CTRL-C.  Then move to the folder where you want to copy and click header file and type CTRL-V.  Perhaps this method of copying files won't work where others do not.

    I hope this helps.

    OK, I seem to have bypassed the error.

    Although the CIM server on host Service showed the execution, I have restarted using the following

    CIMService = Get-VMHostService - VMHost $item | Where {$_.} Label - match "CIM Server"}

    Restart VMHostService - $CIMService HostService - confirm: $false


    After that, the previous code worked

    I found the following handy KB VMware http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1025757
