PowerCLI equivalent to vSphere client "Detach" memory card?

I'm trying to find the PowerCLI equirvelent to disconnect an adapter of the ESX host storage device. Preferably using the LUN ID.

For reference, in the vSphere client GUI I have run the command by selecting a host configuration tab, then select adapters and storage in detail looking at the peripheral view, I can right click on a device and have the ability to "unpin".

I've been watching the cmdlets Get-ScsiLun and Set-ScsiLun.

I have also been watching the ScsiLunPath together and wonder if Active the parameter false, that's what I'm looking for?

I am also looking to hard drive Set and remove hard drive but these commands seem to be relevant to VM and hosts no.

Any help or hints would be appreciated.

This new feature in the vSphere client 5 is not taken in charge by a cmdlet PowerCLI AFAIK.

But you can get the same result by using the DetachScsiLun method.

2 following functions (I added a function to fix as well) will allow you to detach and attach the lun.

I chose to spend the LUN target via its canonicalname, but you can easily adapt the functiosn to use another LUN property.

function Detach-Disk{
    param(
        [VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Impl.V1.Inventory.VMHostImpl]$VMHost,
        [string]$CanonicalName    )

    $storSys = Get-View $VMHost.Extensiondata.ConfigManager.StorageSystem
    $lunUuid = (Get-ScsiLun -VmHost $VMHost | where {$_.CanonicalName -eq $CanonicalName}).ExtensionData.Uuid

    $storSys.DetachScsiLun($lunUuid)
}

function Attach-Disk{
    param(
        [VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Impl.V1.Inventory.VMHostImpl]$VMHost,
        [string]$CanonicalName    )

    $storSys = Get-View $VMHost.Extensiondata.ConfigManager.StorageSystem
    $lunUuid = (Get-ScsiLun -VmHost $VMHost | where {$_.CanonicalName -eq $CanonicalName}).ExtensionData.Uuid

    $storSys.AttachScsiLun($lunUuid)
}

You can call the function like this

$esx = Get-VMHost MyEsx $name = "The-canonical-name-of-the-target-LUN"

Detach-Disk -VMHost $esx -CanonicalName $name

  • My Handspring Visor/Palm has a memory card?

    Hello

    I have an old Handspring Visor (I'm guessing it's 3-4 years) and I was wondering if it has a memory card which can be downloaded? I mainly use this device Handspring read my blood sugar and store customer contact information. However, I recently gave up and it no longer works. All regular backups were performed on a PC to my work, but I'm no longer with this company and I have no access to this information either. Does anyone know if there is a memory card from your Palm device and if so, how can I get the "contact information" of him (it has all my clients in the database of the address)? If she doesn't have a memory card device, does anyone have an idea where I could possible take/send my Handspring for help with this problem?

  • vSphere Client: bad user name or password

    Hello

    I'm new on the vSphere server and it seems that I made my first big mistake.

    I installed a 6 of VMware ESXi server and I am not able to connect to the admin with the vSphere Client account more.

    If I use the same credentials to log in via ssh or PowerCLI, I can connect and everything works. But when I use the vSphere client it says that the user name or password is incorrect.

    I tried to add a new user in the shell but when I try to connect with this user via the vSphere Client, I get the message that the account does not have permission to open a session.

    I also tried to use "pam_tally2 - user = root - reset" to reset the counter of failed connections, but it always says 0 failures and doesn't change anything for me.

    Change the admin password (in the shell via passwd) doesn't help either.

    Is it possible to grant permissions for connection the Client vSphere for users outside of the shell or the PowerCLI?

    Or is it possible to "wake-up" or "unlock" my admin account?

    Thanks in advance,

  • Cannot connect my vsphere client to manage my host... pls help!

    Thank you for reading... I'm new to esxi 5.1 and inherit a T110 Dell running a HD-250 GB for the OS (Esxi and Server 2008 r2) and 2-1 TB H.D for mirrow to SHARE DATA with the Microsoft software... (what a waste ah)

    everything was fine until about 2 weeks that I'm unable to connect to manage the server, it gives me the error:

    VSphere client could not connect to "IP address"

    A unknown connection error has occurred. (The client may not send a request to the server. (La connexion sous-jacente a été fermée: une erreur inattendue s'est produite sur un envoi.))

    If I point the browser to the IP Address of the host as: https://hostip (the page cannot be display)

    -Windows server is running

    -i can ping the Esxi

    Problem is that I have to update the memory and I'm afraid that after I have does not connect... and then I'm in big trouble... because I hand turned on inside the Esxi server.

    I did not backup, but the person in front of me was not do backups with veeam... instead they used a regular backup of windows on a USB software... I tried to create a re-usable collection and of course does not work... He was asking for a driver... I think it was for the hard drive... I free veeam now... but I can't connect it either... the box of Esxi.

    I would be grateful for any suggestion... Thanks in advance.

  • Cannot connect to the ESXi 5.5 with VSphere client

    I have a new Dell server. I installed ESXi 5.5. I can ping and SSH in the host, but I can not connect with the vsphere client. I captured the vmkernel and host agent log management. I'm confused now as to what is the cause. I installed ESXi 5.5 on an SD card in the server. And like I said I can ping and SSH in the host.

    OK, I found that it was associated with MTU, MTU under voltage has been set at 1500. These are Dell switches if it matters. I removed the MTU setting for the management ports and then I was able to connect to vsphere with no problems.

  • Unable to connect to esxi using the vsphere client

    Hello friends,

    I need a little help.

    a 2 5.0 esxi host and a vcenter than VM.

    My laboratory worked well for days, but all of a sudden do not know why I am not able to connect to ESXi hosts with vSphere Client.

    Error: The request failed because the remote server has taken too long to respond.

    Call "ServiceInstance.RetrieveContent" to "ServiceInstance' server '192.168.1.101' object failed.

    Yes, I am able to connect to vCenter server, when it is connected to vCenter and open the console of the virtual computer, nothing shows up, it's a black screen, as if the virtual machine is turned off. It is with all the virtual machines on both hosts.

    1. I thought that it might have to do something with vCenter and I tried connecting to Host individually which I wasn't able to.

    After completing a few KBs on vmware and some articles, I checked the status of the firewall on both hosts. (attached screenshot)

    8-7-2013 2-11-16 AM.png

    Checked if my computer can talk to esxi host on port 80, 443, 902. all ports are accessible.

    Disabled the Symantec endpoint protection and checked. no positive results.

    Finally, I tried the ESXi web navigation browser host http://ESXi-IP-address which redirects me to HTTPS connection with Certificate error, when I continue with the cert error, loading of the URL guard and the host page doesn't appear as it should.

    This questions are on both hosts. :-(

    You guys can point me in the right direction to solve this problem.

    Thank you.

    Finally things started working now.

    The problem was with the configuration of the workstation's NETWORK adapter.

    The link on the NETWORK adapter speed was set to Auto negotiate (default), but the speed was detected as 100 Mbps instead of 1 Gbps and MTU has been set at 9014 which I defined manually long back.

    Things use to operate in this configuration that I have configured hosts with MTU 9000 and cisco SMB switch default Jumbo.

    the LinkSpeed of 100 Mbps is bugging me, after changing to 1 Gbps (manual setting) the card NETWORK has deactivated, and it reminded me to switch!

    So I put the LinkSpeed Auto negotiation, MTU 9014, stop the two hosts, restart the switch. restarted my computer.

    Since it uses for things were in a normal state.

    Even the question of the console (black screen) disappeared. :-)

  • Unable to connect to vSphere vSphere Client via

    In the hypervisor, network cards, the static IP address that I have is related to the vmnic0 list below.

    Please let me know if this is incorrect.

    And in the DNS Configuration, I put the primary and auxiliary DNS server to match ours. Then the hostname is replaced by CompanyHost.

    IP-setting.JPG

    Again, please let me know if my setup is incorrect. If it's any good, I wonder why connect to this host does not work. Any suggestion is appreciated.

    1. as long as a single port is plugged in, you're fine. In any case, I suggest that you check the connections to ensure a proper wiring. The network ports on the DL380G7 count right on the left! (see HP product Bulletin)

    2-3. DNS resolution is not critical at all for a single host, but should be in place in case you want to add the host to vCenter server environment.

  • Avoid or prevent mirroring of the console in vSphere Client

    I'm looking for more information on how to avoid and prevent the mirroring of the console in vSphere Client. As default the console could be perceived by several users at the same time. All those who have access to vSphere Client and server could connect and watch the console.

    Is it possible to configure how the Console should behave?

    Cordially Jens

    You can add the RemoteDisplay.maxConnections setting in the advanced configuration of the virtual machine settings and set it to 1. If you want to do it without interruption of service, add the following line to each of the. VMX files:

    RemoteDisplay.maxConnections = 1

    After editing the VMX file, vMotion, the machine to re-read the config (otherwise the changes do not take effect until the reboot), and who should do it. There is a script PowerCLI here that will try to change this setting on all of your virtual machines.

    More questions than one. Run any software protection AV or endpoint on the host? In this case, make sure that these applications do not block installation. Even if this was not a problem with the vSphere Client - but only with VMware Workstation/Player - looking for a process of "fixcamera.exe". If this is the case, you can try to kill him before starting the installation.
