• Add inventory tab in the left Nav of BCC

  Hello
  
  We have a requirement where business users can play with the BCC inventory itself, we need to create a stock management tab in the left Nav of BCC (where the other tabs such as Administration, Merchandising, personalization content are displayed).
  
  We want this tab to open the JSP (on the right panel), using which user can set the SKU inventory directly.
  
  Pointers to above solution will be appreciated.
  
  Thank you and best regards,

• Running PowerCLI connect VIServer & Get - VM as a single command

  I'm trying to create a script that allows me to generate the results of the cmdlet 'get - vm | Get-snapshot | format-list' in a file

  
  

  I use a piece of software that allows us to run scripts remotely via commands or PowerShell prompt

  
  

  How can I create a single command line that would Connect-VIServer vCenterServerName order & the get - vm | get-snapshot | format-list?

  
  

  I add variables via our software for the name of user and password & vmware server IP. These variables must be part of the command, for example:

  
  

  SE connect-VIServer-Server @VMwareHostIP @ - protocol https - User @Username @ - Password @Password @.

  
  

  Is there a way I could call the PowerCLI from the Windows command prompt?
  

  You can try below to the command prompt

  PowerShell "add-pssnapin vmware.vimautomation.core"; ' Connect-VIServer-Server @VMwareHostIP @ - protocol https - User @Username @ - Password @Password @; ' get - vm | Get-snapshot | format-list.

  Separate each command with ';' and best practices is Quote unquote each order.

  That is right.

• Move the vCenters SQL Server to different hardware

  I have two clusters.  An AMD and another is Intel.  We are trying to remove the blades from AMD, but I get to a point where I must pass the SQL VM that hosts the vCenter DB.

  How would I be able to do it from vcenter will be down, because SQL server needs to be powered off to move from AMD to Intel? I guess I have to remove the inventory then just connect to a host of Intel directly and re - add inventory?

  A better way?

  This is probably the simplest and fastest approach

• Cannot launch PowerCLI view view 4.5

  Hello

  I have two server running on View 4.5.
  I need to use the view command, but whenever I try to run the VMware View PowerCLI, I got the same error on these two server.

  Add-PSSnapin: Windows PowerShell "VMware.View.Broker" snap-in is not installed on this computer.

  D:\apps\VMware\VMware View\Server\extras\PowerShell\add-snapin.ps1:30 tank: 14

  I try to install it manually.

  In the 45 view integration guide: the script for the view PowerCLI cmdlets configuration file is named InitViewCmdlets.ps1.

  I can't find this script.

  Made several resettlement.

  If someone has an idea

  OK, it seems as if the script is the choice the InstallUtil 32-bit rather than 64-bit.

  Can you try to run the following command to install the snap?

  C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\installutil \bin\PowershellServiceCmdlets.dll

  Where is where you installed your connection to the server.

  If this works, run the script should work, because it will not try again to install the snap and just load using Add-PSSnapin.

• Cannot run script .pl in ESXi 4.1

  Hi all

  I want to install Nagios in VMware ESXi. But I found the problem when running the script.

  /vmfs/volumes/4d418fae-5f542615-60d7-e41f13452b96/VMware-vSphere-CLI-distrib #./vmware-install.pl
  -Ash:. / vmware - install.pl: not found

  So please suggesst me, how to install perl on it?

  My ESXi version is 4.1 build 260247

  Thanking you in advance!

  If you do an Internet search for 'orders with ESXi console' you will find many sample documentation.  The preferred method of scripting for ESXi is to use the vCLI (vSphere Command Line Interface) or PowerCLI PowerShell Add-on.  Access your host a console is more for troubleshooting purposes.

• Add a PowerShell host workflow question

  Hello people,

  I ran into a problem when I tried to run the add a workflow host Powershell.

  Here's what I've done so now...

  Installed PowerShell plugin in the system of the vCO.

  WinRM service that is configured according to the doc in my vCO server... I want to use the same vCO as a powershell host server too...

  I created the krb5.conf file in the installation of vCO location mentioned in the doc.

  Ran the workflow manage SSL certificates which was a success.

  Now I have to add this as a host of powershell to see in the inventory which fails with the error below.

  Connection timed out: connect (name of the dynamic Script Module: addPowerShellHost #16)

  Your help is very appreciated!

  Kind regards

  VMSavvy

  1. I suggest to add "-a: option of the Kerberos test to connect to the winrm service" This will ensure that the mechanisym of Kerberos authentication is used.

  > winrm identity-r:https:// host_name : port_number -was: Kerberos-sup: user_name Pei:password

  2. try to connect vCO PowerShell plugin using shared session and providing user specifiv credentials (but be sure first that this user has enough privileges to connect to the WinRm service using winrm client)

  > winrm identity-r:https:// host_name : port_number -was: Kerberos-sup: user_name Pei:password

  3. could you give the error reported in vCO?

• Add to the inventory of a vm.vmtx through PowerCLI template file

  Correct me if I'm wrong, but there seems to be NO WAY to 'add to the inventory' template file (e.g., vm.vmtx) through PowerCLI? This can be done with a VIrtualMachine (e.g., vm.vmx) with the command New - VM, but not with a template file.

  A workaround that I tried was to copy the VMTX to a VMX file, but the problem is that it does not keep the snapshots that are shipped on the model and is not 100% reliable.

  Thanks in advance!

  There used to be a problem with the call to RegisterVM_Task of PowerShell. But I don't know if this is always the case in PowerCLI 5.

  You can find a way to workaround (lines 88-95) in my post, the adventurers of the lost VMX , which also allows you to save files vmtx btw.

  If the name parameter is $null, the model will be saved with the vmtx file from DisplayName

  He is listed as Windows Powershell. Maybe you just looked for Powershell. You were just to check the brand of show updates.

• Script to add the virtual computer to the inventory of different data warehouses

  I need a script that will go through all available databases and add the virtual machine inside of them in inventory.

  
  

  I know how to do this with:

  New-VM - VMFilePath ' [DATASTORE] vmfolder/vmname.vmx "-VMHost (Get-Cluster"NOMCLUSTER"|) Get-VMHost | Get - Random) - place (Get-folder folder_name) - RunAsync

  But we have hundreds of data stores and thousands of virtual machines. I suck at writing scripts in a loop, but it looks like that's what I need. I tried using wildcards for the VMFilePath - but it does not work. Must be another way.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  Oh, I fixed it. I had a host that was plundered with partial connectivity to storage. The script was repeatedly tries to connect to this host jacked up.

  I managed to work around the problem by changing "Get-VMHost | Select - first 1 "to" Get-VMHost | Get-Random.

  Works fine now... as do all things Luke and Lam

• Add VM for inventory does not

  Hello

  I try to use PowerCLI to add a virtual machine to inventory.  I know the exact location and I am not having any questions see the file, I even checked the location using ls:

  LS vmstores:\srmvc2. MYDOMAIN.ca@443\DR\NASG_SVM1_ESX_Templates\PICOB_NEW1\PICOB_NEW1.vmx

  The data store path: [NASG_SVM1_ESX_Templates] PICOB_NEW1

  LastWriteTime length name Type
  -------------            ----       ------ ----
  2016/04/18 11:35 VmConfigFile 3554 PICOB_NEW1.vmx

  This result seems to indicate that the vmx file path is correct, I try to add the file to the inventory using the following command:

  New-VM - VMHost srmesxi62. MYDOMAIN.ca - location migration - VMFilePath 'vmstores:\srmvc2. MYDOMAIN.ca@443\DR\NASG_SVM1_ESX_Templates\PICOB_NEW1\PICOB_NEW1.vmx ".

  This property returns an invalid path error.  This should be simple to fix, but I do not see where I am going wrong.  Any ideas?

  Your formatting of path is incorrect, try this:

  New-VM -VMHost srmesxi62.MYDOMAIN.ca -Location Migrating -VMFilePath "[NASG_SVM1_ESX_Templates] PICOB_NEW1/PICOB_NEW1.vmx"
  

• vSphere Client Web - VM not found after add to the inventory

  Hello!

  We use device and Web Client Version 5.5.0 Build 1750785 vSphere vCenter.

  Machine virtual VM1 in the resource POOL1 pool configured on cluster1. DRS on in manual mode.

  I create user USER1 in AD with no privileges and allow it to turn on VM1. (User1 is a member of the Group GROUP1 and power on permission set GROUP1 POOL1 level.)

  Everything works very well.

  After I have remove the inventory VM1 and add to the inventory again.

  Then I login to vSphere Web Client with the User1 credentials and try to power on VM1, but get error not found "VM".

  I relog to vSphere Web Client with administrative rights and try to turn on VM1. VM1 on successfully.

  I check the permission for User1 on VM1. Everything was ok.

  Can I use vSphere Client Version 5.5.0 build 1746248 (not web) to USER1 qualifications and try to turn on VM1. VM1 lit with success!

  But I need User1 to power on VM1 from WebClient.

  Do you have any suggestions?

  Thank you

  later I try to adjust the power on the authorization of USER1 (VM1), level of the virtual computer object. VM1 on WEB Client successfully!

  But I have put on leave at POOL1

  Yes, you are right.

  I solved the problrem. Thank you.

  After re - add to the discovered inventory updated VM1 on virtual machine file.

  I put read-only role in GROUP1 without spread on discovered virtual machine folder.

  VM1 powered with success on the web client and the vSphere Client.
