• PowerCLI datastore report

  Hello

  could you please provide me with the script to report data format below store

  Name	Capacity GB	GB provisioned	%(Provisined/capacity) capacity	Use GB	GB free	% Free
  datastore1	129	0.94921875	0.74	0.94921875	128	99

  You can redirect the result of the Select-Object cmdlet to the Export-Csv cmdlet.

  Like this

  Get-Datastore.

  Select Name, CapacityGB, FreeSpaceGB,

  @{N = "% free"; E = {'{0:p1}' f ($_.)} FreeSpaceGB / $_. CapacityGB)}}.

  @{N = "ProvisionedGB"; E = {'{0:N1}' f ($_.)} CapacityGB - $_. FreeSpaceGB)}}.

  @{N = 'Provisioned %'; E = {'{0:p1}' f (($_.))} CapacityGB - $_. FreeSpaceGB) / $_. CapacityGB)}}.

  @{N = "use GB"; E = {'{0:N1}' f ($_.)} CapacityGB - $_. FreeSpaceGB + $_. ExtensionData.Summary.Uncommitted/1GB)}}.

• PowerCli for audit information

  Hi folks can anyone help with this, I need to get the information below are virtual environment (each esxi and esx host) and was wondering if someone has a script to complete?

  Vpshere product name

  Version 4.1 etc.

  Enterprise edition etc.

  Name of the computer ESX1 etc.

  Number of cores

  Number of physical processes

  I can get the name of carrots and physics by the GET-vmhost | selection version, name, Numcpu etc, but I'm not sure there is a better way to get it?

  Also Vcentre info - information about the license if anyone can help with this.

  Thanks to all who responded.

  Hello

  regarding the licensing stuff feel free to throw a look my solution

  http://psvmware.WordPress.com/2012/08/13/get-licensereport-to-obtain-informations-regarding-licenses-within-virtual-Center/

  And for the properties that you are looking for here, you were doing ok

  Get-vmhost | {select version,name,@{n='total CPU; e = {$_.numcpu}}, @{n = 'number of sockets'; e = {$_.extensiondata.hardware.cpuinfo.numcpupackages}}

  for guests, it will choose its version, the host name, the number of cpu, the number of sockets

  The rest you will earn on top of link

• List NETWORK adapter physical autonegotiation setting

  Hello all I hope someone can help me here.  I'm trying to find out if there is a way using powercli for audit/list all the parameters of NETWORK card physical hosts.  Specifically, I need to know if the NETWORK card is hard codes at a particular speed or if it is set to auto negotiate.  And also its current speed / duplex or if it is broken.

  I have reviewed the results of get-display of a host, but were not able to determine exactly what says the Iftar NIC physical real parameters - v it runs to the.

  Thanks for the help.

  Hey Joe,

  I should have been reading yesterday.

  You are right about the auto-negotiation. You can find in the documentation of PhysicalNicSpec . It says on the LinkSpeed property:

  The link speed and duplex mode this physical network adapter is currently configured to use. If this property is not set, the physical network adapter autonegotiates its settings.

  According to PhysicalNic documentation if the LinkSpeed property in this object is not set, then the link is down.

  This brings me to the next new version of my script:

  Get-VMHostNetworkAdapter |
  Where-Object {$_.GetType().Name -eq "PhysicalNicImpl"} |
  Select-Object -Property VMHost,Name,BitRatePerSec,FullDuplex,
    @{Name="AutoNegotiate";Expression={
      if ($_.ExtensionData.Spec.LinkSpeed)
        {$false} else {$true}
    }},
    @{Name="LinkState";Expression={
      if ($_.ExtensionData.LinkSpeed)
       {"Up"} else {"Down"}
    }}
  

• PowerCLI script for VMFS datastore list with ID NAA and latency?

  Hi all

  Can anyone here please share a script, or help me to change the PowerCLI to display the store name of VMFS data, capacity and NAA.ID and latency in the past 24 hours?

  So far I can only use the WHowe script below:

  $esxName = "PRODESXi10".

  SE PRODVCENTER01-connect-VIServer-Server "VM".

  New-VIProperty-name lunDatastoreName - ObjectType ScsiLun-Value {}

  Param ($LUN)

  $ds = $lun. VMHost.ExtensionData.Datastore | % {Get-view $_} | `

  where {$_.} Summary.Type - eq "VMFS" - and

  (_.Info.Vmfs.Extent $ |) where {$_.} DiskName - eq $lun. CanonicalName})}

  {if ($DS)}

  $ds. Name

  }

  } - Force | Out-Null

  Get-VMHost-name $esxName | Get-ScsiLun | Select CanonicalName, CapacityMB, lunDatastoreName

  Thanks in advance,

  But you easily add a timestamp.

  Get-Datastore.

  Select Name,

  @{N = "DateTime"; E = {Get-DateTime}},

  @{N = "CanonicalName"; E = {$_.ExtensionData.Info.Vmfs.Extent [0].} DiskName}},

  @{N = 'Latency'; E = {}

• How to calculate the IOPS datastore / s and latency via Powercli?

  Hi all!

  I want to calculate the IOPS / s (RO/RW) and the latency of the data via Powercli store, but I cant' find this metric in Vcenter (in the data store tab) and see no metric for data via the cmdlet Get-Stat store.

  How can we measure IOPS / s and latency of data store?  For example I know veeam monitor this information - http://cdn.swcdn.net/creative/v16.8/images/screenshots/products/VM/Lg/EN/VMan60-Orion-Datastore-Top_Lg_960x540.jpg

  I know, I can get this VM or vmhost metric, but I need information on the data store.

  How to measure for IOPS / s and latency of data properly store?

  Thanks in advance!

  These measures are collected on ESXi nodes, entity would need to have the ESXi nodes where these data warehouses are connected.

  You can use the Instance property to filter.

  Under the PerformanceManager , you see all the measures for each indicator it indicates under which entity this metric is collected.

  

  And Yes, the cmdlet Get-inventory returns no data warehouses.

  There is a little, aggregated metric for data warehouses, I'll have to find an alternative for those.

  Nice catch!

• PowerCLI - using script VM + Datastore + Annotations?

  Can someone help me get this script to extract the field of annotations of the virtual machine please?

  A virtual machine can have several annotations. I don't know if you want to combine in the same output as data warehouses. The following script lists all the names and values of the annotations of the virtual machine:

• What VM is including LUN via PowerCli

  Hello

  I have a SAN storage BOX connected to a SAN switch blade chassis. I have configured Powercli and get the details of the VMs and LUNS all connected on each VMware host. I want to get a list which LUN is the host that VM. I have the very large number of LUNS configured and I donot have any option instead of going through the LUN to see what virtual machines are there on this LUN. So is there a command that will give me the details what is a VM hosted on a particular LUN.

  Thank you

  Amit

  Try this.

  Get - vm | % {$_: select '}

  @{n = "VMname"; e = {$_.name}},

  @{n = "Datastore"; e = {($__|_get-datastore).name}},

  @{n = "LUN ID"; e = {($__|_get-datastore).extensiondata.info.vmfs.extent.diskname}}

  In one, I run, I changed the "Connect-VIServer-menu" to simply plug the vCenter Server I use. I also changed line 16 to 'Get-ResourcePool' since there's not enough pools to make this work. Using the PowerCLI utility, I don't have the option that indicates on line 25. I used the export feature to create csv files in other scripts, but I can't make it work in this case. I know it's probably something simple that I'm just missing.

  I like the length of time that this script uses the information. If anything, I don't want to go back to the suite to get a better idea of what the actual maximum number what is / was. It is also necessary to have the columns for information (as he shows). If we are to refine for which metric is present, I would be ok with just having the IOPS numbers / s max in the table.

  Any guru PowerCLI have an idea?

  Try like this

  Add-pssnapin VMware.VimAutomation.Core - ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

  Yet once, this problem does not migrate this virtual machine via the Web Client.  I checked the data store, and the file is present and correctly named.  I'm not sure of what could be the issue.
  

  All the info/help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you.
  

  This problem has been resolved by specifying the data store of the destination-side as well as the source host: "PowerCLI > x.x.x.y Get-VMHost | Get - VM jcarroll-NAV-3501-server-move | Move-VM-Destination x.x.x.x - Datastore ' datastore1 (3).

• How to - migrate VM through the vCenters using PowerCLI - bypass the validation of network

  Hello

  I'm working on an automation project, which requires that we have a VM of 1 vCenter to another.
  Each vCenter is a stand-alone instance, they are not related.

  The problem we have is that cmdlets Import-vAPP and export-VAPP are 'too' data validation.

  VAPP export works very well, however, our problems are on the part of import-vapp.

  Each vCenter uses a distributed switch, so when we run this command, we get the below error

  Import-vApp -VMHost $targetEsxhost -Source $importpath -Name $hostname -Datastore $targetDatastore -Location $targetCluster -DiskStorageFormat "THICK" -Force -ErrorAction Stop
  

  Import-TIME: 28/03/2016-09:18:29 Import-TIME host lacked any defined virtual network.

  Online: 8 char: 1

  I'm guessing that the import fails because the switches names and IDs are different on the target as on the source vCenter vCenter

  We use vCenter 5.1 and 5.5 PowerCLI for execution of our automation tools.

  What other options do I import to be successful, somehow bypassing validation of network?

  We can reconfigure our VM subsequently, but we want to just that import of fill.

  Is there any other cmdlets, that we can use, or go on the road to the API and something like Onyx allows you to spy on the vSphere Client to "make our own import-function"?

  All I know, you cannot ignore the validation, but you might take away the network.

  What I mean, check out the network configuration and store it outdoors, then try to remove the adapters for virtual machines.

  Now you should be able to migrate the virtual computer.

  During the migration, restore the vNIC and from the saved data, you have the network configuration.

• PowerCLI - deploy VM-models from CSV

  Problems with a script.  According to me, I'm close, but still miss me something...  I don't know if PowerCLI is a matter or my knowledge lack of PowerShell.

  My PowerCLI 6 script seems to work but only at a low level.  It creates virtual machines, but does not assign the IP address or the host name to the newly created virtual computer.  Then, when it is time to apply the customization specifications, it times out or simply is not fully applied; I don't know who, as no error is spit me.  It creates the virtual machine with the correct name & changes the Group of port on which the NETWORK card will sit but that seems to be about it.  I manually tested the customization specification and model are used in the text, and it seems fine after a manual inspection.  For some reason, some information from the CSV are not used properly or at all.

  The script I have is quite long and I didn't want to ruin the page with her so I he dumped on PasteBin; hope that's ok...

  Script: http://pastebin.com/XwFHLHER

  CSV: http://pastebin.com/u59TwBu4

  Found my problem.  Everything was fine except for the line of New-VM ; He had the wrong variable for the switch -OSCustomizationSpec .  Feeling a little stupid, but it's been a long week.

  Incorrect line:

  New-VM-name $GuestVM - model $Template - location $VMFolder - OSCustomizationSpec $CustSpec - ResourcePool $Cluster - data $Datastore store

  Good line:
