• Unable to choose the host when you deploy a virtual machine template

  Good Morning-

  I feel that the answer to this is with myself; However, I would ask - I try to deploy a virtual machine model for test purposes and I want the virtual machine must be created on a specific host.  When I start the Wizard "deploy the virtual machine of model", I am only able to select the cluster and not a specific host.   Is it possible for me to be able to select the host to which the virtual machine will be deployed without disabling DRS?

  Thank you very much in advance for the help.

  Steve

  What happens if you right click on the host that you want to deploy on the virtual machine to and select deploy from model - but don't forget if you have a DRS activated with anything other that Manuel DRS will select the host on which the virtual machine starts on and it would not be that you deply to--

• Get the name of the cluster which is on a virtual machine by using the virtual machine name

  Hello

  I wrote a code to get the various bits of information about our machines virtual for use in the capacity planning, we have 5 virtual centers, each has at least two clusters.

  My code already gets a handle to the virtual computer object (using the code snippet below) I can get the hostname.  Is there anyway to determine which cluster this host resides on, for example, is there a property of the virtual computer object that can be used to get this info?

  Public Sub connectVC()

  {

  string URI = " " https:// "+ Server +" / sdk "; "

  customer. Connect (Uri);

  customer. Login (username, password);

  }

  Public Sub get_vms()

  {

  NameValueCollection filter = new NameValueCollection();

  filter. Add ("name", "^ wks");

  IList & lt; EntityViewBase & gt; vmList = customer. FindEntityViews (typeof (VirtualMachine), null, filter, null);

  foreach (VirtualMachine vm in vmList)

  {

  "Do things

  }

  Thank you

  Take a look at this Perl script that gets what you are looking for, you may need to translate this into another language if you are not using Perl bindings: whichClusterIsMyVMIn.pl - Find that your VM clustered belongs (requires a vCenter)

• My Clickfree automatic backup drive has stopped working, with my iMac, what is the best replacement to use with Time machine

  My Clickfree automatic backup drive I had for many years stopped working with my iMac, what is the best replacement to use with Time Machine.

  I can't even reformat the drive to try to start over, then think its time I invested in a high today but don't know where start looking so any advise would be a great help.

  Thank you guys

  A lot of users on these forums recommend OWC (www.macsales.com) Mercury Elite Pro series JEP due to their durability, affordability and quality of construction. I have about 6 of them connected to my iMac and have never had a speaker to fail. When a hard drive fails, substitute is a 5-minute process to re - use the box. To help you get started, you can find the line to: https://eshop.macsales.com/shop/firewire/1394/USB/EliteAL/eSATA_FW800_FW400_USB

  You can find them in various ways and with a variety of configurations of connection so you can find the one that best fits your needs.

• What is the type of object to use for virtual machine model in the Points of Extension?

  Hello

  I added my plugin point of extension vsphere.core. ${objectType} .monitorViews. My plugin is for all types of objects (vm, file, vApp, resourcePool, etc) except the model of the virtual machine. My understanding is that the vm object type would be required for the virtual machine template, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Am I missing something here? Should the plugin appear for the model of the virtual machine when I use the vsphere.core.vm.monitorViews extension point?

  Thanks in advance.

  Kind regards

  Ashutosh

  Sorry, I got confused by your original question. ExtensionPoint id you are looking for is the one for adding views a model virtual machine monitor tab:

  model.monitorViews vSphere.Core.

• How to pass the start settings in starting a virtual machine?

  How can I use PowerCLI to start a new Linux VM and the nucleus of some startup parameters?

  What would be more simple: (a) to make and use a virtual machine model, or (b) to boot from an ISO image, or (c) start with a Linux VM and the clone who?

  The basic Linux is RedHat on an ISO on the network (ISO can be on a local path running the PowerCLI script if necessary).  If a model would be easier then a diagram how to make one of my ISO would be great!

  RedHat Linux can be configured by passing parameters of the kernel startup, so kickstart configures the system, something like

  KS=/my/path/KS.cfg otherparams

  where KS.cfg says kickstart what to do.

  How to pass the start settings in the new virtual machine?

  (It is probably completely irrelevant, but I work with Xen using bash scripting and)

  $UUID = xe model vm-install = "RedHatLinux64bit."

  XE vm-param-set uuid = $UUID PV-args="ks=/my/path/ks.cfg '.

  XE-vm-beginning uuid = $UUID

  now, it must be implemented on ESX. To determine when the new VM is fuly configured, my scripts from kickstart wrote a semaphore to be detected by the bash script.)

  I know very little about ESX and PowerCLI details will be particularly useful if you please!

  Thank you!

  Enjoy your break

Note: However: you have no other choice if the Virtual Machine does not suspend/resume/stop/start correctly.

• How can I pay for the reservation of memory on all virtual machines to "0"?

  I am trying to write a script that will pay for the reservation of memory on all virtual machines that are invited in a cluster to '0 '.  We have book too much memory, and this setting should allow VMWare facilities manage reserves memory for me.  I have hundreds of virtual machines to update, so I can't do it by hand.  I hope that it is possible via the CLI.

  Can someone help me with this please?

  Matt example work certainly, and I'm sure that he was going to follow up with something similar to this after having confirmed if it worked or not because it is much more serious on the optimization of code for speed, but I'll (try to) save the effort. To test its extract on a cluster of 45 VMS, it took more than four minutes to complete.  The excerpt below took about 25 seconds.  The difference is of course to use the cmdlet "Get-View" and that it can run asynchronously so (it begins a vCenter task and immediately passes the following).  Of course, this will also put more of a strain to your vCenter server, so keep that in mind.

  $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec
  $spec.memoryAllocation = New-Object VMware.Vim.ResourceAllocationInfo
  $spec.memoryAllocation.Reservation = 0
  Get-Cluster "YOUR_CLUSTER" | Get-VM | Get-View -Property Config.MemoryAllocation | %{$_.ReconfigVM_Task($spec)}
  

• What is the best way to backup of virtual machines on a standalone ESX with the data store local

  Hello

  I want to save the virtual machines on a host ESX autonomous. and all of these virtual machines is the local data store.  What is the best way to save these virtual machines in this situation?

  And probably we don't provision VTL on the local data center, so it is possible to use VCB to backup? And VCB is a good choice compared to the traditional method that installs the backup client in each virtual machine?   Because I think that in this situation with the data store local, it cannot not reduced the load on ESX hosts and network overhead can be avoided.

  Thank you!

  LAN

  > 1. VCB usable remote tape library? I mean it's not local library and uses the tape library to another network data center.

  VCB is completely unrelated to the tape library, it is a framework, not a backup solution. If your standard backup software can work with the remote tape library you can try it to ungrateful with VCB.

  > 2. what the difference bwteen hot - added NBD and modes if there is that an ESX host with store data local and want to use a virtual machine like VCB proxy? I think that they are the same: the VCB proxy read data through the I/O of the ESX host stack in this situation.

  NBD works on network and the backup traffic goes through the service console connection. Hot add uses special machine for assistance to connect vmdk to and uses of e/s disk stack instead of e/s network.

  > 3. Veeam Backup is free software?

  No, it isn't.

• How can I get the number of disks for a virtual machine and PAHO are / s of a disc?

  Hi all

  I would like to know if there is a command that returns the number of disks having a virtual machine.

  and also if there is no command to obtain and change the number of the IOPS / disk s.

  Thanks in advance

  Carlos

  It will give you hard drives attached

  Get - VM | Hard drive

  
  

  It will give you count
  

  Get - vm | Select name, @{N = "TotalHDD"; E={($_ | (Get-harddisk).count}}

  
  

  It is possible to retrieve the number of the IOPS / disk s, but what do you mean by editing.
  

• Change the default options for a NEW virtual machine in ESXI 5.1

  Hello

  I am looking for a solution change the 'default' options for a new virtual machine created in ESXI 5.1

  I want to have parameters such as 'cpu/memory HOT-add' default to enabled instead of disabled.

  There may be more options to change to a new virtual machine.

  All those who have an option to change the 'default' options for new virtual machines?

  THX

  You can change the/etc/vmware/config of vSphere host file and add the lines mem.hotadd = 'TRUE' and vcpu.hotadd = 'TRUE '.
  The settings then apply to any VM on this host when virtual machines are turned on...

  I just tried this on a 5.1 ESXi host and it seems to work perfectly...
