• Recovery of vSphere PowerCLI with alarms

  Hello

  Can you please help me write a PowerCLI script that would recover the vSphere alarms?

  I want the script to show only alarms last 24 hours only if not acknowledged or deleted.

  If the alarm was not recognized and authorized, it should still show.

  You can see these alarms with

• PowerCLI - clear alarm

  Hi all

  Recently, we found that our guests have been sensitive to this issue.  After you apply update vCenter to address this going forward, we went through all affected with script PowerCLI from VMware virtual machines.  The result is that each unique VM fixed by this script now has an alarm "vSphere HA machine virtual failover impossible" triggered.

  I thought it would be pretty easy to write a script to run through all our virtual machines and turn off the alarm if the date of call or alarm type matching certain criteria.

  I highly recommend to expose this functionality via PowerCLI.  I am quite surprised that we will need to manually clear these alarms - was trying to force me to not to use the GUI.

  Thank you!

  On a side note, it might be interesting to update the post found here:

  http://communities.VMware.com/message/1869541

  The code lacks a line break:

  $alarmMgr = Get-View AlarmManager Get-VM | where {$_.ExtensionData.TriggeredAlarmState} | %{
      $vm = $_
      $vm.ExtensionData.TriggeredAlarmState | %{
          $alarmMgr.AcknowledgeAlarm($_.Alarm,$vm.ExtensionData.MoRef)
      }
  }
  

  Should be

  $alarmMgr = Get-View AlarmManager #note the previous code missed a line break here
  
  Get-VM | where {$_.ExtensionData.TriggeredAlarmState} | %{
      $vm = $_
      $vm.ExtensionData.TriggeredAlarmState | %{
          $alarmMgr.AcknowledgeAlarm($_.Alarm,$vm.ExtensionData.MoRef)
      }
  }
  
  

  I updated the code, thanks for finding this.

  The clearing of the triggered alarms unfortunately use private API.

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

  I need to remove a single adapter via PowerCLI:

  "Get-NetworkAdapter - VM myvm" returns:

  Name Type NetworkName MacAddress WakeOnLan

  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

  Remove-NIC - NIC $network

  Who wants to delete the two network adapters:

  Confirm
  Are you sure you want to perform this action?
  Operation 'Remove network adapter' target 'NIC 1,

  Which returns:

  Cannot perform indexing in a null table.

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

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  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]

• PowerCLI script alarms

  Hello.

  I am trying to create a script that can take all the vm that triggered a specific alarm as "the processor of the virtual machine using" with an alert and put the machine names to a csv file. so far, I found a lot of information how to do that on all the alarms but not how I define one type of alarm. Is there a simple solution to this?

  BR jorber

  -Very well, so basically you want to filter anything that contains 'use of the virtual machine CPU' in AlarmInfo attribute.

  The simple way to do this is to add a Where clause clause before heading to Export-CSV, as follows (see the changes in bold):

  $ignoreAlarms = @("Virtual machine cpu usage")
  $vm_all = Get-View -ViewType VirtualMachine
  $Report=@()
  foreach ($vm in $vm_all){
    foreach($triggered in $vm.TriggeredAlarmState){
      If ($triggered.OverallStatus -like "red" ){
        $lineitem={} | Select Name, AlarmInfo
        $alarmDef = Get-View -Id $triggered.Alarm
        $lineitem.Name = $vm.Name
        $lineitem.AlarmInfo = $alarmDef.Info.Name
        $Report+=$lineitem
      }
    }
  }
  $Report |Sort Name | Where {$ignoreAlarms -notcontains $_.AlarmInfo } | export-csv "c:\temp\VM-Red-Alarms.csv" -notypeinformation -useculture
  Invoke-item "c:\temp\VM-Red-Alarms.csv"
  

  I also added a table of alarms to ignore, this way if you have several types of alarms that you want to ignore, you can add it to the table.

  Change to 'Get-View - ViewType VirtualMachine' should give you a bit of a speed improvement as well

• Restore default alarm / problem with 2 of them

  Hello everyone!

  I create a script to restore vCenter alarm on the default state.

  In fact, it's almost over because it works for 35 of them,

  but I am having problems with 2 of them who do not want to create.

  you can find the current version of my script here: http://ghostus.free.fr/Projet/PowerCLI/default-alarm.ps1

  (I commented the alarm two that do not work, then the rest of the code works)

  the part of the code that do not work is:

  Use of #Datastore to disk

  New 'or' 'Use of data to drive store' 'default alarm to monitor the datastore disk usage"

  7500 0 8500 metexpr 0 "Datastore" 147

  $global: alarmMgr.CreateAlarm ($entity. MoRef, $global: alarm)

  and:

  #Host State of connection and power supply

  New 'and' 'connection host and power status' "default alarm to monitor connection status and power.

  statexpr «isEqual"«notResponding" «runtime.connectionState"«HostSystem ' «»

  statexpr «isUnequal"«standBy" «runtime.powerState"«HostSystem ' «»

  $global: alarmMgr.CreateAlarm ($entity. MoRef, $global: alarm)

  but as it is the function of myself I'm not someone to see any error in there, except

  However, I wonder if some of you guys still managed create specially one of these 2 alarm using a script?

  And if yes, can you tell me, what type of event counter/expression/etc... have you used?

  Any thoughts on that would be appreciated = D

  I think I found the problem.

  It's in the way that the system will wait for the red and yellow conditions to be specified.

  If you don't want to test a specific condition, you must leave it as he got out of the constructor.

  If you change your statexpr like that function, it works.

  function statexpr([string]$operator,[string]$red,[string]$path,[string]$type,[string]$yellow){
  #Ajout d'un moniteur(expression) d'état(state) à une alarme
       $global:expr = New-Object VMware.Vim.StateAlarmExpression
       $global:expr.Operator = $operator
       if($red -ne ""){
            $global:expr.Red = $red
       }
       $global:expr.StatePath = $path
       $global:expr.Type = $type
       if($yellow -ne ""){
            $global:expr.Yellow = $yellow
       }
       $global:alarm.expression.expression += $global:expr
  }

• Clear recognized as alarms

  Does anyone know the trick to clear alarm States that get 'stuck' for a virtual machine? I have a number of VMs who have launched alarms in the last two months, and even after the virtual machine goes out of the State of the alarm AND the alarm has been recognized (there is no other options, i.e. Remove alarm), the virtual machine continues to show in VCenter as being in a State not nominative.

  Of course, this kind of 'false positive' is pretty boring, causing waste of time trying to figure out if it's a real question or "crying wolf".

  Hello.

  I was able to clear these by disabling the alarm and then the reactivation.

  Good luck!

• Create alarm "Network redundancy lost" by the script?

  Hello:

  I'm trying to write a script that will create the alarm in order to monitor the redundancy of the lost network (I know manually there) on the host.

  I know how to create alarm for additional exhibit the ' basic' event (LucD - thank you for your help) and I know that I have for alarm 'Lost network redundancy' to use 'vprob.net.redundancy.lost' instead of 'EnteringMaintenanceModeEvent' (as in my example); but I still struggle to combine...

  Can someone help me please?

  Thank you

  qwert

  I don't have a particular script fantasy with the settings and all the rest, but I can show you the steps to filter alarms by name and remove the desired one.

  alarm #retrieve Manager

  $alarmManager = get-view-Id "AlarmManager-AlarmManager.

  #Get the entity that contains the alarm that you want to remove. I'll do it for a virtual machine

  $entityView = get-Vm-name MyVm | Get-View

  #get all MoRefs alarm

  $alarmMoRefList = $alarmManager.GetAlarm($entityView.MoRef)

  #Retrieve tha alarm views from the MoRefs

  $alarmViewList = $alarmMoRefList | foreach (Get-view $_)

  #Now filter the name alrams

  $alarmToDelete = $alarmViewList | where {$_.Info.Name - eq "AlarmToDelete"}

  #Finally remove alarms

  $alarmToDelete.RemoveAlarm)

  It shouldn't be hard to put this in a script or function reussable. If you have problems with this, I'll be happy to help you again!

  Hi CroManiac13,

  You could also try the clock application in the parameters of compensation.

  This will remove alarms and no matter what parameter added in section alarms/clocks.

• BlackBerry Smartphones keeping old calendar events in Outlook and Storm2

  Is there a way to keep all appointments, regardless of age on Outlook and my Storm2?

  Just got my Storm2.  Downloaded/installed the latest office software.  Allowed to update the Storm2 OS via USB, the desktop software.  Desktop software configured to synchronize my Outlook 2003 (no Exchange involved, only local server).  I tried all the dates on the calendar (including former appointments, etc) to be both Outlook and the Storm2. On the first synchronization, all the calendar events appeared to transfer fine from Outlook to the Storm2.  However, on subsequent synchronizations, the desktop software apparently wants to delete all appointments of old (about 2 200) in Outlook.

  Here are the details:

  Phone: Storm2 9550
  OS phone: V 5.0.0.71 3

  BlackBerry Desktop Software: 6.0.0.40 (Bundle 42)
  BlackBerry Device Manager: 6.0.0.11
  BBDevMgr: 4.1.0.14
  RIM USB driver: 4.1.0.4
  RIM USB Serial Driver: 2.2.0.3
  Application loader: 6.0.0.36

  PC:
  Windows XP Pro SP3
  MS Outlook: 2003 SP3

  P.S. I'm new in these here.  Should I post this question in another forum?

  For good measure, I did a hard reset on the Storm2 after changing the option «forever» you described. Then I did a synchronization one-way calendar to recover older events calendar on the Storm2.  When I've reconfigured the synchronization two-way calendar, I also did "Remove alarm for items being passed" has not been checked.   So far so good

  Thank you very much.

• Can't change ringtone on Centro

  This problem started a few days ago.  I can set the ringer on my Centro what in the list and it saves the day, but no matter what I choose, the ringtone I get when a call comes in is the ringing of the alarm.  If I go back to the preferences of his that he still has my chosen ringtone settings - the settings are apparently just ignored.  Initially, he played a few other ringtone (that I forgot it) and I deleted this ringtone to try to solve the problem, but then it just took alarm.  I could remove alarm too, but it will most likely just choose another ring to get stuck on.  Removing the battery does not solve the problem.  Thanks for any help.

  Hello carrion and welcome to the forums.

  When was the last time you hotsynced your device? The reason why I ask this is I want to suggest a hard reset as the first step to solve this problem.

  After HotSync to back up all of your PIM data, follow the directions for a Hard Reset here:

  http://KB.Palm.com/wps/portal/KB/na/Centro/Centro/Verizon/solutions/article/887_en.html

  After the Hard Reset, try to set ringtones before HotSync and restoring the information on your device. If the problem is resolved, hotsync and restore your device, and then try again. If after the restoration of your data that you have this probem again, then probably there is a problem with a program that you have installed on your device.

  Hope this helps,

• no response from get-stat

  Hello list,

  I have a strange problem with a script for performance:

  I want to get the mem.usage.average / cpu.usage.average counters of all my servers esxi (4.1.1)

  to connect-ViServer 'vcenter.server.local '.

  $esxHost = get-vmhost 'server.esx.local '.

  Get-stat - $esxHost - stat mem.usage.average entity

  ...

  On seven servers, it works very well. On a server, I have no answer. No data, without exception no failure. just nothing.

  Can someone help me with this?

  Kind regards

  Andreas

  OK, this seems to indicate that performance data are for one reason or the other not to be transferred between the host and vCenter.

  If possible, you can remove/add for the specific host.

  You can do this from the vSphere client or use the PowerCLI Remove-VMHost and Add-VMHost cmdlets.

  Real-time statistical data are cached on the server ESX (i) for about 1 hour, after the aggregation of vCenter should launch.

  Then you should start to see performance, in the vSphere client or Get-Stat data, after about 1 hour.

  BTW, guests running on this host will normally not be affected by the Remove/Add.
