• Script to stop and remove the list of virtual machines?

  Hello

  I would use powercli to stop and delete a list of virtual machines to a .csv file.  Although not quite clear on how to do it, can someone help out me?

  Hello, max08-

  Simply use this CSV as a list of names of virtual machine to stop and delete permanently, you can do something like:

  Import-Csv remove.csv | %{Stop-VM $_."Server Name" -Confirm:$false | Remove-VM -DeletePermanently -Confirm:$false -RunAsync}
  

  Note, it is non-interactive once you run - he doesn't want to stop the virtual machines or remove the disc, it does just.  So, make sure that the .csv file is only virtual computer names you really want to kill.

  How does do for you?

• Can I force it to use more vMemory and less vCPU in a virtual machine?

  Hello guys,.

  I have a virtual machine that uses vCPU more than a vMemory, when I select the Task Manager, I noticed that the memory is less than 5% and the cpu is greater than 50% when no application is running when the application run the vcpu go high and the vmem remains low. If there is any way to force it to use more vmemory and less vcpu in a virtual machine? can I use the list of resources for this?

  Thank you

  No, you can not force the VM to use more memory and less CPU. In fact you can force the VM to use less CPU by limiting the use of the processor, but it will affect performance. The only thing you can do with forcing more use - is to guarantee the physical resources for VM (reserve), but if the virtual machine has no more physical memory or CPU it don't use them.

• Can I upgrade to Windows 7 and keep Vista in a virtual machine environment or a dual boot?

  I use Vista Home Premium and I want to upgrade to windows 7. I love Vista and do not want to abandon it. After the upgrade I can install Vista (same drive, same NR) in a virtual machine in tha same computer.

  N ° if this Vista product key has been used to make the upgrade to Windows7, she is technically still in use and can not be installed on any computer (or even the same machine in VM).  You must either complete a version of installation of Window7 - and you must change the product key or do a clean install (so it no longer an upgrade that will release the Vista product) or you need a copy of the complete installation of Vista with its own product key.

  Sorry if this isn't what you wanted to hear, but it's like that.

  Good luck!

• Local and remote to the same virtual machine replication?

  Is it possible to configure replication for a virtual machine to replicate locally and remotely?

  For example:

  ServerA is my server I need to replicate.

  I set up replication for this VM ServerA to storage replicated in the same site (local)

  I opened the replication again for ServerA VM and I can only see/manage this replication.

  I would like to reproduce ServerA VM offisite in a remote cluster of VCenter for DR purposes.

  
  

  Is this possible? What I am doing wrong?

  same source VM cannot be replicated on the two sites with vSphere replication targets.

  If you use replication level storage table between the source to the target and the second replication, you use the replication of vSphere, it would be a different story.

• vCenter Server and Manager on the same virtual machine and on the same host ESXi update that they manage

  Hi all

  I have a question to which I did not respond.

  I have an ESXi 5 on Proliant DL380 G7 server host. I want to install vCenter Server and Manager Update on one of the Server 2008 R2 VM on the same host. I know it's possible, but my question is how Update manager will provide updates to the same ESXi host it will run on? The update is applied every time host must spend in maintenance mode and power off the virtual computer running on this subject which means he'll kill VM where vCenter Server and Update Manager is running and the update will fail right?

  Is that possible at all or the VCS and UM such as a virtual computer operating point is updated to other guests if you have them or vMotion as VM to another host when you want to update the VCS and UM host is running?

  Thanks in advance.

  It will not work.  You will need at least two hosts.  This way you can vMotion the vCenter VM to another host.  From there, you can use VUM.  Otherwise, you will need to patch the host as a stand-alone host.

  See below for patching a standalone host

• VShield Configuration Manager 4.1 (and how to protect a virtual machine?)

  I have 2 ESXi hosts currently configured in vCenter 4.1.  Before vShield installation Manager, he had 3 vSwitches present on each server; a regular and two distributed.

  • vSwitch0 - connected to vmnic0 - has management and production of network 1 10.168.90.x

  • VLAN 10.1 - VMFN connected to vmnic1 on each host - connects to the private physical network 10.1.x.x

  • VLAN 10.2 - VMFN connected to vmnic2 on each host - connects to the private physical network 10.2.x.x

  After you install vShield Manager in a new virtual machine and then to deploy vShield Zones to each ESXi host, develops a new vSwitch

  vmservice-vswitch - again group of ports in Virtual Machine vmservice-vshield-pg - not connected to any physical cards

  VMS individual vShield-FW created for each host have connected network cards as below

  • Production network normal 1 - VM Network adapter (attached to vSwitch 0).

  • Production network normal 2 - VM Network adapter (attached to vSwitch 0).

  • Adapter 3 - vmservice-vshield-pg network

  I tried to connect my VMs to the network vmservice-vshield-pg in order

  to protect them and place them behiind the firewall.  However, who has

  seem to work, and my VM has lost network connectivity.

  How to protect a virtual machine that needs to connect to the normal production

  Network (on vSwitch0)?  Is there any configuration steps I'm missing?

  What happens if I want to connect a virtual machine or one of its network cards to one of the 10.1.xx

  or 10.2.x.x networks rather than the normal 10.168.90.x network?  What

  additional steps should I make?  The new 4.1 documentation is not

  helped at all, and it seems that the old vShield Zones 1.0 docs are not

  applies to all.

  There is no need to change the virtual computer is connected to the network.

  Just activate/install vShield zones on your hosts and add rules to the vSwitch or data center.

  The virtual machine will be becomes protected if no error is displayed.

• Hyperthreading and Intel VT for ESX virtual machine

  Hello

  I installed ESXi4.1 in VMware workstation as a virtual machine. My physical CPU on my workstation box is Intel Core i7 730 with HT enabled with 4GB DD3 1333 MHZ RAM. However, when I try to create a Server 2003 64-bit VM inside this ESX host. and try to turn it on, it says, "THIS HOST is not taken in CHARGE VT". Above this showed hyperthreading is inactive.

  VMware Workstation 7.0 Release notes

• VMware workstation and ReadyNAS to store the virtual machine

  Hello

  I just bought a Netgear Readynas box for home (Readnas RND2000 XRAID SIN) and it seems like a big box to keep a backup of my critical data and flow data and video music.

  Now that will take about 100 GB in space and I'll always have weird to play with 400 GB and it made me think if I host all my test VM I created using VMware workstation, for the moment I use a local computer, but its lack of disk space, I tried to put the virtual computer on an external drive and performance is ok on it as well but for me , it would be ideal if I could store them on the readynas and open them through VM workstation.

  Of course put it on a NAS box could be problematic, has anyone tried this on one of these boxes ReadyNAS? its probably not designed for this type of data and traffic, but if anyone has got, it works, I would be interested to hear comments.

  One of the potential problems in my view is I'll be going through a wireless router with a 4 port 100 mb go and see that as a problem, it replaces a gigabit switch would make a huge difference, or would it still slow?

  I would appreciate any advice on this.

  Thank you

  I'll guess that your external hard drives are USB.  In this case my answer is Firewire.  I run several of my virtual machines to external Firewire drives very good success.  While I ran a few virtual machines from USB, USB just isn't the sustained performance of Firewire.  This is the case on my Macbook Pro and my HP Pavilion (with built-in Firewire.)

  That said, even if I don't have any experience with the ReadyNAS, I use a Windows Server as NFS storage to an ESX Server.  The gigabit switch is almost a necessity.  Possible about 100 MB, but significantly better on gigabit.  In addition, the link of the ESX to Windows NFS is on a physically separate local network segment, so I don't have any problems with the network traffic slows down the virtual machine.  I have not tried Workstation with storage NFS, as I always got Firewire on all my machines so I kept for most of the virtual machine from the network.  YMMV, of course, but I suspect that you will have to keep the rest of the traffic network in mind if you can not create a separate network for NFS storage.  (for example: no internet surfing on the host while the virtual machine is running.)

• Script to list all the warehouses of data in a cluster, the virtual machines on the data store and the host of the virtual machine is on

  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
