Pull on the Notes field

What would be the best way to shoot just a single word of the section notes.

Assuming that there are a lot of things in the section notes and I wanted to just get out if he says 'Production '.

Notes:

Windows XP

ABC rental

Date: 090909

Owner: scoobydoo

Status: Production

I want only the word 'Production' that I can send to another exit.

I tried split and select-object but I am not having too much luck.

Something like this should do the trick

$mask = [regex]"(?Production|QA|Test|Dev)"
$result = $vm.notes | Select-String -Pattern $mask
$reportedvm.PatchSched = $result.Matches[0].Groups["status"].Value

  • Find everyday odd or a string in the Notes field.

    In our environment, we are looking for a way to make sure some VMS are on the correct storage node.  I've got code working now, but like all things, I would like to make it that much better.

    Most of the time, we want our odd number VMs to stay on our 'A-Side' storage and our even number VMs to stay on storage of 'b-side '.  A virtual machine is even or odd by the number given in the Notes field.

    For example Notes for would look like this for a SINGLE virtual machine.  "Prod - payments - TC #02 ticket.

    It is the line that I am looking to clean.

    $VMs = get-data center < Center >. Get-DatastoreCluster | where {$_.} Name.Contains('-A-Side')} | Get - VM | where {$_.} Notes.Contains ('2') - or $_. Notes.Contains('#4') - or $_. Notes.Contains('#6') - or $_. Notes.Contains('#8') - or $_. Notes.Contains('#10') - or $_. Notes.Contains('#12') - or $_. Notes.Contains('#14') - or $_. Notes.Contains('#16') - or $_. Notes.Contains('#18') - or $_. Notes.Contains('#20') - or $_. Notes.Contains('#22') - or $_. Notes.Contains('#24') - or $_. Notes.Contains('#26') - or $_. Notes.Contains('#04') - or $_. Notes.Contains('#06') - or $_. Notes.Contains ('#08')} | Select Name, Notes

    Yes, this is WAAAAY too long, but it do the job.  I also have a space after '#2' to make sure that it isn't catching #20 virtual machines etc..

    Now, I know you can use %2 - eq 0 to find the odd or even days, but I don't know how to look at the field notes of powershell, remove the #XX and then check whether it is even or odd.

    Ideas?

    Try with a RegEx expression and the modulo function.

    Something like that

    $VMs = get-datacenter  |     Get-DatastoreCluster |     where {$_.Name.Contains('-A-Side')} |     Get-VM |     where {([regex]::Match($_.Notes,"#(\d*)").Groups[1].Value % 2) -eq 0) |    Select Name, Notes
    
  • pulling the Notes field

    Excuse the greenery in my powercli skills so I'm not even sure, is that I can explain what I'm missing so I'll give you an example of what I'm looking for

    I would like to shoot the "field notes" - If POSSIBLE like this

    $vms = "" | Select-Object VMName, OS, (Notes

    $vms. VMName = $vm. Name
    $vms. OS = $vm. Config.GuestFullName

    $vms. Notes =?

    but I do not know what to ask that by querying for the vmname ($vm. Name)

    Or am I just WAYYYYY in left field and not even on the right track?

    Thus, one, I can do it and I have question with

    two, is there an easy way for a dummy like me to know what I mark from virtual machines... I would like to collect information so I don't know that I have the same question about something else.

    Thank you!!!

    Drivera, you do it very well! No need to be frustrated

    Let me know what is not clear, because I see only the "main" question In regards to IP addresses, you can check how I did in some post me

    http://psvmware.WordPress.com/2012/10/24/report-for-all-VMs-regarding-network-card-MACAddress-IPAddress-network-card-type-e1000vmxnet-in-a-CSV/

    You can test this part of the code that describes the intellectual property and put to yourscript.

    Let me know if you have any other questions.

    I used this code and it works, ip is pressed:

    $Report = @)

    {foreach ($vm in get - vm)

    $vms = "" | Select-Object VMName, Notes, Hostname, IPAddress
    $vms. VMName = $vm. Name
    $vms. Host name = $vm.guest.hostname
    $vms. Notes = $vm.notes
    $vms. IPAddress = $vm.guest.ipAddress

    $Report += $vms
    }

    PowerCLI C:\ > $report | Select vmname, ipaddress

    VMName IPAddress
    ------                                  ---------
    testVM1 {192.168.0.9
    testvm4                          {}
    testx                               {}
    vmtest1 {192.168.0.4, fe80..:}

    It's just that the IP address can have several elements, when it has, it becomes an object array. So what to do

    .IPAddress $report [3] is an array that keeps 2 ips, 1 ip which is ipv4, and then which is ipv6.

    So basically to get first this virtual machine ip address you must use:

    $report [3] .ipaddress [0]-> this will be ip ipv4

    .IPAddress $report [3] [1]-> it will be the second ip address which is in this case some ipv6.

    IF you don't want to have ipv6 included ips you can filter

    $Report = @)

    foreach ($vm to {$x [0.10])}

    $vms = "" | Select-Object VMName, Notes, Hostname, IPAddress
    $vms. VMName = $vm. Name
    $vms. Host name = $vm.guest.hostname
    $vms. Notes = $vm.notes
    $vms. IPAddress = $vm.guest.ipAddress |? {$_ - like "*."} * "}-> This will make ipv6 went as they have: instead of."

    $Report += $vms
    }

    Let me know what does not work for you with these ips.

  • BlackBerry smartphone data truncated during synchronization - the note field size can be increased?

    I find that some data is truncated on the "BOLD" when my "BOLD" with Outlook synchronization. This is a problem for some of my bigger contact and entries of calendar notes.

    Is it possible to increase the size of these fields on the device must match which allows Outlook (or at all)?

    ... Thank you!

    It turned out that only some 200 entries truncated calendar had an atttachment, but some appeared to have a symbol (small rectangle) character that seems to replace a in the subject line. In my opinion, that they were introduced during a synchronized using an earlier version of Desktop Manager when I was with a Blackberry 8700.

    Re: problem of truncation: when syncing with the "BOLD", I discovered that in each case that a few words at most have been lost from the entries, regardless of the initial term. When I took the time to check them individually, most were not serious for me.

    Then... I still don't understand why it happened, but I was able to fix the problem for now.

  • Organizer of PES, 13, is the field "notes" a real field of IPTC data or a data only to the organizer field?

  • Change the Notes to custom for guests attributes field

    People,

    I need a way via Powershell (I know I could probably do via SQL, but I would avoid editing the VC DB directly) to go through a server cluster and be able to edit any guest VM that has a custom attribute defined in the Notes field. Our problem is that we use Platespin for all of our P2V and he puts this long text string after each conversion in the Notes field:

    "Virtual Machine created by PowerConvert 7.0.0.5157 08/08/2008 23:47:46.

    We want to shorten the chain to a something simple, since it appears on reports and causes problems with the formatting, something like "P2V 08/08/2008 23:47:46.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thank you.

    You can use the - operator replace like this

    $text = "Virtual Machine created by PowerConvert 7.0.0.5157 on 8/8/2008 11:47:46 PM"
    $pattern = "Virtual Machine created by PowerConvert 7.0.0.5157"
    $newtext = $text -replace $pattern, "P2V"
    $newtext
    

    If the model is not constant, then we use a regular expression for the matching process.

  • Update custom attributes - additional Note fields

    I tear my head off with getting a script works, maybe

    You can help

    I'm looking to see if a custom on all machines attribute is

    populated. If not then I would like to fill

    I can't seem to find the way out of the value of the

    attribute.

    The idea of the script would be to review all the VMS on a daily basis - see

    If they are populated with the field "date installation" – if not.

    means that they have been created in the past day. I would check if this field is

    filled, if not, get the date of creation of AD and fill and if the

    the machine is not windows, fill in the date of the day.

    This way I can also follow the old VM's to see if they are still

    necessary.

    Of course also allows to add to a report of all VM

    created by day and many other uses.

    I think it's in the note field

    Thanks a bunch

    The script below should do what you want.

    A few notes:

    • the logic to get the date of installation for Windows and Linux clients has been moved to a separate function

    • to cover all possibilities that I used 2 flags ($tgt and $found). According to these flags the custom attribute will be left alone, created or updated to date.

    • using the cmdlet Get-QADComputer requires the presence of the snap of the Quest.ActiveRoles.ADManagement.

    function Get-DateInstalled($VMname){
         $ADcomp = Get-QADComputer -Name $_.Name
         if($ADcomp -ne $null){
              $convertDate = $ADcomp.whencreated.ToShortDateString()
              return $convertDate
         }
         else{
              $today = Get-Date -uformat "%d/%m/%Y"
              return $today
         }
    }
    
    $folder = "POC"
    $tgtName = "Date Installed"
    $today = Get-Date -uformat "%d/%m/%Y"
    
    Get-Datacenter "ENG" | Get-Folder $folder | Get-VM | ForEach-Object {
         $vmid = (Get-View $_.ID)
         $tgt = (-1)

  • Where to find the Notes of the PES in Lightroom?

    Until recently, I used Photoshop elements (PSE) to scan family photos and save them as TIFF. All the information that I found the hand on the back of the photos, I copied in the 'Notes' 'Properties - general' field of the PES. I did some tests and confirmed that this information is written to the file.

    Now, I use Lightroom - and very happy with it - but I can't find those Notes in the same files. I looked everywhere in the metadata, but just can't find them.

    I guess that the information added to the post-secondary studies should be visible in Lightroom, so no idea on where they could be?

    Thanks for your help!

    Hello

    Thanks a lot to you both for your help on this!

    For now, I have about 600 TIFF in my PSE catalog. Maybe a third party data are entered in the field "Notes" of PSE7. Basically, as I understand it, what I do is transfer these information in the 'Notes' field to another field of PES that can be 'seen' by LR (perhaps "Caption"?).

    When I'm back home, I'll send a message with one of my attached files, so that you can see where the data is.

    I had a look at Exiftool, but I'm not sure that I am able to work with guests from orders. And in the standard, it is unclear if it can do what I want.

    You could manually transfer all PSE notes on legend.

    You can use SQLite to achieve this. (PSE7 catalogue is a SQLite database)

    You can certainly use ExifTool to do that as well.

    And, of course, you might be able to find someone who can do these things.

    These are your choices, I can say.

    Hello

    I'm having a problem with the accessor get and setters of my grain of support not pulling on the second visit to the page. When I visit the page for the first time, it works very well and the calculations are complete but when I revisit the page it doesn't work. Any help would be great. I have setup a custom but phaselistener do not think that is the problem as I tried it on a test page with only field based on him and it works very well.

    Thank you.

    "Revisit" a page can mean many things. Are you you speak by using the back button on your browser, or by using the in-application links to access the page? In 10.1.3 ADF is not really compatible back-button navigation. I've seen full button back-support for 10.1.3 House, but it is not easy (basically, it's doing things fantasies with frames, makuing sure that back button always navigates actually a hidden frame and Javascript in this context which submits to having again the previous page request). It's one of these things "I hope 11g coming out soon.

    If you actually go back to the page by using the links on the page, it's a little more surpsising. It is certainly the getter which is not put to fire, and not, say, code in the constructor of the Get accessor is dependent on? If the latter, make sure your scope of bean; It must be set to 'request', or you will be reusing an old bean rather than make a new. Otherwise, I'm at a bit of a loss.

    Hi robmm76. I looked at the link you provided. It seems that the reason why AutoFill does not work for the address field is because of the way this field has been programmed on the site. It has been programmed to make type you part of your address and click on the right pair and it would then fill in city, State and zip code. If this field is just a special case.
