• Virtual Center stops all the virtual machines in a cluster HA

  Hello.

  I have a question about vCenter machine. We have deployed

  VMware ESX 4.0 HA cluster on Server Blade IBM 3. VCenter machine resides

  on a virtual machine on the same cluster. When we tried to recharge a physical switch (in the)

  IBM Blade Center), all our virtual machines on the cluster have been turned off automatically.

  If the vCenter VM is turned off, then everything is fine - the reloading of the

  Switch is not turning off the virtual machines (and the net is ok - start machines

  work through another switch in IBM bladecenter). If the machine vCenter

  powers (manually), all the other machines, which have been put off, are powered

  on too (automatically, of course, with the help of the machine of vCenter). How

  is that what I can adjust the machine vCenter, so it could not power power machines by

  itself automatically?

  Hello

  Right-click in your cluster, change the settings. Select 'Virtual Machine Options' under 'Vmware HA' and choose the host response of insulation desired for the entire cluster or individual VM. If you do not have network connections redundant between your ESX machines, you probably want the virtual machine for when you need to do maintenance or your network switch died. You should probably also disable HA while doing maintenance. You should consider to build network redundancy in the case of a production environment.

  I hope that helps!

• Is it possible to recover all the virtual machines in a cluster in a single web service call?

  I tried to retrieve the list of all virtual machines in a cluster to a single web service call, but to no avail. It seems that there is no direct web service API to achieve this goal. Alternative options must first recover the hosts or data warehouses in the cluster and then recover virtual machines from there. But still, if anyone has an idea how we can do this please let me know. All help information will be greatly appreciated.

  It is possible, if you use the PropertyCollector.

  (It is usually the answer to questions of the form "Is it possible to retrieve the X in a single web service call").

  Call"propertycollector.retrievecontents:

  http://www.VMware.com/support/developer/VC-SDK/visdk41pubs/ApiReference/vmodl.query.PropertyCollector.html#retrieveContents

  allows you to retrieve a whole bunch of stuff in a single call, which you then have to go through and interpret.

• 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.

• Utility to display all the virtual machines that have ISO attached to CD

  Someone at - it a utility that will list all the virtual machines on a host or a cluster, indicating the State of the virtual CD drive?  I am trying to remove one of my nfs stores, and of course, he's busy.  It's a real pain to point and click through all the virtual machines to find one or two that have a CD with ISO attached.

  Obviously, free is better!

  Thanks for your suggestions,

• script to remove all the virtual machines in a folder or a group resource

  Someone at - it a script that will find all the virtual machines within a file or a group of resources and then delete the virtual machines?

  If you're dealing with a specific resource pool or a folder, you can use these.

  $vmlist = get-folder -name "TEST2"  | get-vm
  $vmlist = get-resourcepool -name TestServers | get-vm
  

  And then send it to something like this

  $vmlist | ForEach {
       If ($_.PowerState  -eq "PoweredOn")
            {
            Stop-VM -VM $_.Name -Confirm:$False
            }
       Remove-VM -VM $_.Name -Confirm:$False      }
  

  Also to find files of type VM

  get-folder -name | where {$_.IsChildTypeVM -eq "True"}
  

  Do you need to search the children files or resource pools as well?

• How to move the virtual machine from one cluster to another cluster

  How to move the virtual machine from one cluster to another cluster

  If two Clusters are in the same data center, you could do a 'live' migration or vMotion, if that's the case.   If the virtual machine is turned off, it may be migrated regardless of the data center.

• Activation of CBT for all ESX virtual machines?

  Hello

  This favourable CBT for all of the Virtual Machine that is managed by my Virtual Center is a good idea or not supposed to be due to General files CBT?

  I have to restart all virtual machine once I activate the option of CBT manually one by one but the vSphere Console modify settings for each virtual computer?

  Your help and your help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Avamar, not sure but I am sure that it provides an option to activate the CBT. NetWorker offers a script to activate the CBT. However, IIRC there is a problem with the file level restore when using CBT with version 7.6.

• Optimal code to retrieve all the virtual machines in a ResourcePool

  Hi all

  What is optimum (fastest) encode during extraction of all virtual machines in a Resource Pool?

  I have this:

  $myVMs = get - vm | where {$_.} ResourcePool - eq "MYRP"}

  [1]

  Is this actually retrieve ALL virtual machines first and then filter on the second resource pool (in which case it would be 'slow')?

  I also have this:

  $myRP = get-resourcepool "MYRP".

  $myRP.extensiondata.vm

  This generates the MoRef VM.

  [2]

  How do I use get - view then pull only information on those specific MoRefs and has this method might be considerably better than the get - vm method detailed above?

  Notice-EEG - viewtype property VirtualMachine MoRef does not work

  Kind regards

  marc0

  Hi Marco,.

  (1) Yes, this call will be all first retrieve all virtual machines and then filter on the resource pool property.

  I suggest using the following call which retrieves only the virtual machines in the desired resource pool. This will give you better performance:

  $resourcePool = get-ResourcePool "MYRP".

  Get-VM-location $resourcePool

  # Or you can use this:

  Get-VM-location "MYRP".

  (2) you can use Get-View to retrieve objects by MoRef like this:

  $vmViews = get-view-Id $myRP.extensiondata.vm

  # If you need VM objects rather than their point of view, then you must also do the following:

  $vms = $vmViews | Get-VIObjectByVIView

  Kind regards

• I can run all the virtual machines (created with workstation) in VMWare player?

  Suppose I created a virtual machine in a Vmware Workstation 7.1 installation.

  Can I take all of this a virtual machine and run it on a VMware player installation?

  Or Vmware Workstation offers specific features that are required by the virtual machine to run successfully?

  Matt

  If,

  If you are using vmware player 3.x, you should have no problem.

  Do not forget that the workstation and vmware player share much of its architecture.

• Need a script to the list of all the virtual machines in CSV

  I want to record a list of virtual machines from one host in a csv file so that I can add to their return with

  New-VM - VMFilePath $VMXFile - $vmhost $ESXHost - $VMFolder location

  I started with that, but am struggling with the name of the folder of the virtual machine (can be used in New-VM-map)

  }

  $report

• Creation of the virtual machine on a cluster using the vmcreate.pl script

  Hello

  I checked a few posts on this forum on how to create the virtual machine through vmcreate.pl, but responses was not so clear to me...

  These are the topics I've read:

  Create a VM on the Cluster instance

  How to configure the managed object HostSystem

  So, I would like to create a virtual machine on a Cluster, and not on a specific host. The vmcreate.pl script would have done the job? Or should I change it?

  In the topic = > VM create instance on Cluster I did not quite get, what I need to change...

  That's what I do:

  vmcreate.pl - server 'ESX NAME' - username "LOGIN" - password 'PASS' filename - vmcreate.xml - schema vmcreate.xsd

  
  

  Result:

  Creation of the 'myTestMachine ': VM error

  SOAP fault:

  -----------

  Error string: InvalidArgument

  The fault detail: InvalidArgument

  Here are the values of the XML file:

  < name > myTestMachine < / name >

  blah < Home > < / Host >

  blah < Center > < / Center >

  > Guest Id < Linioch < / comment-Id >

  blah < Datastore > < / Datastore >

  < > 2048 Disksize < / Disksize >

  > 256 MB memory < < / memory >

  < processor number > 1 < / number processor >

  < Nic-network > < / Nic-network >

  < Nic-Poweron > 1 < / Nic-Poweron >

  The values are correct the cause I checked the other perl scripts.

  Thanks in advance for your help

  Thanks to xyz222 for the user and post Re: instance of VM to create the Cluster

  I was able at the end of the problem. So simple... The value of the in the xml file should be for example "rhel6_64Guest" and not a random word... that's all!

• 10-key Windows product exactly the same for all my virtual machines?

  I have a dozen of VMS I thought I should go to WIN10 and then continue to use as WIN7/WIN8 until I have enough time to deal with possible issues. I have the latest version of everything (less than a week old 12.x).

  Problem is, I get the same product key for machines that are totally different (all on the same host, however). Product ID Windows (!) stands, MAC is different, is different from the amount of memory, 32/64-bit is different... I even created a new virtual machine from scratch with a product key, I have never really used before... and the product key for WIN10 is the same as for everything else. HUH?

  Yes, I thought that my method to get the product key is bad, but when a virtual machine is created from scratch, there is no way that vm could 'know' anything a VM I just deleted.

  I thought it might be I use NAT for all virtual machines and it would affect anything, but as they have different MAC that would be foolish. So I would not be able to update one of my basic machinery is .

  Summer try a lot of things during this time to understand, like making a copy, by selecting "I copied it" but once I went to the deepest that create a new virtual machine and always get the same product key I have to say I am confused.

  Maybe I do not understand how Microsoft does these days. Maybe a different product id and a different product key = another activation and I would have no problem. I want to test it with 10 + vm that could start the Microsoft Genuine tests to fail, and all of a sudden I have to rebuild my entire network or sit in the management of queues for a week? Not really.

  If I understand Windows 10 facilities that are updated to Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 the activaion is a digital entitlement which is linked to a unique material ID online in the Windows store. The generic product key is only for compatibility with things that do not include digital rights.

  Wwhat you see with the same generic product key in each installation is normal behavior for upgrades of Windows 10.

• Orchestrator 5.1 REPORT-all the virtual machines in the data center and create a CSV file

  Hello

  What I basically want to do is create a report CSV of all virtual machines in the data center with various information (VMname, domain name FULL, IPaddress, status, data warehouses, tools etc...).  The export list in the client feature is insufficient (especially for any KPI report).

  Problem: (workflow is still under construction so real email send does not not and need to clean the code)

  I am stuck at the part of the creation of a table that can be parsed correctly in the CSV file.  2 ways I've tried will produce a report of single object or combine all of the table into a single string (where I am now).  I think the main problem I have is that I have to create a 2D within my service to push toward the final table that is written to the CSV format.  Basically, I do not understand how to push my variables in a loop of a table.

  Any help or assistance?

  Thank you

  BOOM!

  Added some comments, removed the hardcoded in the csv temp file, deleted path the hardcoded port 25 for SMTP - mail settings should come from the configuration of the MAIL plug-in. And fixed / confirmed that the workflow now includes the attachment for e-mail and ends with success!
