Need to remove the advanced values in VMX file

Former Director elected to harden all VMs VMX files in order to avoid interruptions in service unwanted individuals manual installation of the VMware tools upgrades.

I agree with him and understand in previous versions, it was a good idea to disable these but now with 5.1 with the fact that we have more to restart for the modernization of the tools happen my life has become much more complicated and we constantly have problems with VM with mounted tools and no way forced to disassemble the tools.

I am looking for PowerCLI script to remove these advanced values in the VMX file for all the virtual machines attached to a vCenter. I guess these are the following values:

isolation.tools.autoInstall.disable = true

isolation.tools.guestInitiatedUpgrade.disable = false

insulation. Tools.connectable.Disable =true

If there are other values that I should check, please let me know and I will review the VMX file.

This is another option, but lines will remain in the VMX, albeit with different values

You can do it with this script

$vm = Get-VM -Name MyVM

$spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec$spec.tools = New-Object VMware.Vim.ToolsConfigInfo

$extra1 = New-Object VMware.Vim.OptionValue$extra1.Key = "isolation.tools.autoInstall.disable"$extra1.Value = "false"$spec.ExtraConfig += $extra1$extra2 = New-Object VMware.Vim.OptionValue$extra2.Key = "isolation.tools.guestInitiatedUpgrade.disable"$extra2.Value = "true"$spec.ExtraConfig += $extra2$extra3 = New-Object VMware.Vim.OptionValue$extra3.Key = "isolation.tools.connectable.disable"$extra3.Value = "flase"$spec.ExtraConfig += $extra3

$vm.ExtensionData.ReconfigVM($spec)

  • Remove the default value drop-down list

    I am currently working with Acrobat Pro XI version. I want to know if it is possible to remove the default value in a drop-down list.

    When the list less than 4 elements, it is possible to deselect the default value by pressing the spaces below. However, when there are no more elements, it is more possible.

    I read that you need to include white space as a component in the list of elements, however, then you will see an empty list item when people work with the pdf that is not preferable.

    So, nobody how to remove the default value in a drop-down list?

    Thank you!

    OK, I found a perfect solution to my problem by using FormsCentral for Acrobat. Here's what you need to do:

    Step 1:

    -Open FormsCentral

    -Create new form (choose the blank form)

    -Click the drop-down menu to create a new drop-down list

    -Fill out the items in the list by clicking on the timeline (you can also add a label if you want)

    -Click on: file > save as PDF form...

    Step 2:

    -Open the PDF saved (you will now see a blank pdf with a menu drop-down)

    -Click on: Tools > forms > Edit Form (when a pop-up window indicates that you should save a copy of the document in order to make changes, press 'Save a copy' and open the file with Acrobat pdf copy)

    -Select the drop-down list, the drop-down list to copy and paste it into the desired document

    Now you have a drop down without a default choice. Remember that you can not change the items in the drop-down list, because we will choose a default choice and you must use the copy pdf file once again. As long as you do not click on a list item, it is not choose a default choice.

    It is not a perfect solution, but it works for me.

    Good luck and thanks!

  • PowerCLI Remove-NetworkAdapter questions - need to remove the single card

    I need to remove a single adapter via PowerCLI:

    "Get-NetworkAdapter - VM myvm" returns:

    I want to only remove the NIC 2, so I tried:

    "Remove-NetworkAdapter - networkadapter"Network adapter 2"which returns:

    Remove-NetworkAdapter: cannot bind parameter "NetworkAdapter". Could not be converted
    the value of 'Network adapter 2' to type 'System.String' to type 'VMware.VimAutoma '.

    So I tried:

    Who wants to delete the two network adapters:

    Confirm

    So I tried

    $network = get-networkadapter VM - myvm

    Remove-NetworkAdapter NetworkAdapter - $network.networkadapter [2]

    Which returns:

    Cannot perform indexing in a null table.

    + CategoryInfo: InvalidOperation: (2:Int32)], RuntimeException

    So, what don't get me?  I need to remove the 2 network adapter only.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    -stephen

    You can do

    Get-NetworkAdapter VM - myvm | where {$_.} Name - eq 'Network adapter 2'} | Remove-NIC

    Note that a table of PS starts indexing at 0.

    If your last attempt should be

    $network = get-networkadapter VM - myvm

    Remove-NetworkAdapter NetworkAdapter - $network.networkadapter [1]

    Hello

    1. how exactly you are trying to remove it?
    2 have you connected the administrator account?

    Step 1: Check if the problem persists in the clean boot state.

    From your computer by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine if a background program is interfering with your game or program. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot".

    Reference:

    How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" State

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    1. click on start and then click Run.

    2. type msconfig and click OK.

    The System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.

    3. click on the tab general, click Normal Startup - load all services and device drivers and then click OK.

    4. When prompted, click on restart to restart the computer.

    Step 2: Take possession of these program at the following location folder, and then check the issue. C:\Program Files\

  • Remove the NULL values and update the value according to the logic

    Hello

    The problem data

    CREATE TABLE VOLA (SRNO, NUMBER, zeroNUMBER, ANUMBER);

    INSERTION of REM in VOLA

    TOGETHER TO DEFINE

    Insert in VOLA (SRNO, ONE) values (1,237.94);

    Insert in VOLA (SRNO, ONE) values (2, null);

    Insert in VOLA (SRNO, ONE) values (3,203.565);

    Insert in VOLA (SRNO, ONE) values (4,170.69);

    Insert in VOLA (SRNO, ONE) values (5,113.67);

    Insert in VOLA (SRNO, ONE) values (6,93.6);

    Insert in VOLA (SRNO, ONE) values (7,82.03);

    Insert in VOLA (SRNO, ONE) values (8,66.675);

    Insert in VOLA (SRNO, ONE) values (15, null);

    Insert in VOLA (SRNO, ONE) values (16, null);

    I have to remove the NULL values in column 1, the problem is that the position of the NULL values are not fixed, and it can be any position. If all the lines of the columns are null, then throw it away.

    If multiple NULL values are here so I have to do the math as follows to update null with the eigenvalues

    1. If the first line is null then take the 2nd value in row and update it.

    2. If the lines between both is null then take avg of prev and next value not null and refresh it.

    3. If the last value in the column is null, then then take prev and update, in this case last two are null, so I have to take value of prev 14 value line update in

    15th and 16th ranks.

    I want to put this pl/sql logic, somehow, that I thought have loop and counter aapproach and loops through the elements and check and update.

    But always looking for something better before looking to write code. No idea or help will be useful for me.

    I * think * you are looking for something like:

    WITH VOLA (SRNO, ONE)

    If it's an array you want to deduplicate then here is a script [for use in the Script Processor] I prepared earlier:

    var result = new Array();

    var added = new Object();

    If (input1 [0]! = null)

    {

    for (var i = 0; i)< input1[0].length;="">

    {

    var point = input1 [0] [i];

    If (! added [item])

    {

    added [item] = 1;
