Question APC UPS - using documents lamw and j.holland - VIMA ESXi 4.0

Hi guys,.

I've implemented our UPS with our ESXi server according to document (revision 4)

http://VIOPS.VMware.com/home/docs/doc-1341/version/4

Note

that revision 4 of the document is not that scripted lamw,

but using the ssh hack. Everything works beautifully when I invoke the

script ups_shutdown manually from the console for ESXi does not support:

#!/bin/bash
VMID=$(/usr/bin/vim-cmd vmsvc/getallvms | grep -v Vmid | awk '{print $1}')

for i in $VMID
do
  STATE=$(/usr/bin/vim-cmd vmsvc/power.getstate $i | tail -1 | awk '{print $2}')
 
  if [ $STATE == on ]
  then
  
    /usr/bin/vim-cmd vmsvc/power.shutdown $i

  fi

done

sleep 30

/sbin/shutdown.sh
/sbin/poweroff

First of all, to the right of the bat in the first line of the script throws and error (-file of ashes not found error). So I had to remove that (no idea why?).

When I run this script from the (unsupported) ESXi console, all right, all the computers shut down virtual and, in the end, therefore the ESXi.

When I run this script to VIMA (ssh to the console, remote script execution), only the VIMA machine stops. If I modify the above script does not close the VIMA, all virtual machines (except of course VIMA) stops and made the ESXi...

VIMA is the first machine that gets shutdown - it has the Vmid lowest. It seems that this causes the rest of the script to stop running... How is that possible when in fact it is running on the ESXi Server?

I'm pulling my hair out on this one (or what's left of them). Does anyone have an idea why it does not work...? lamw?

Thanks in advance guys.

Andrzej

The reason why you should delete/bin/bash because ESXi 4.0 not supported console Busybox has more a symbolic link to/bin/Ash bash that resembles the bash environment, so that would make error if you try to specify the path that does not exist.

About the scheduling of the production of vmsvc/getallvms, you can always do a grep - v on VIMA VM is not part of the list and have a separate condition which which will close at the end.

  • A few questions about the use of data and Cliq

    I have the cliq, however I chose to not get 3G (so I bought full fare). So I have a few questions about the phone and the use of 3G / 2 G/Edge:

    1 - is possible to disable completely the 2G / 3 G/Edge? I know you can switch between them, but are anyway just tell the phone to stop using them altogether since I'm not subbed to the service?

    2. when the update takes place, I guess we'll have to reconnect motoblur and etc, but if I don't have 3 G will I have motoblur connection problems after the update? Or he keeps the latest wifi settings so that it would connect to wifi to connect. When I first got my phone it was not a problem b/c I had 3G for the first month.

    I hope that makes sense, thanks!

    To stop all the data, I would like to download an application called APNDroid. He cut them all down. When you log on to blur you have 3G or WIFI doe this without getting a timeout error. During the process of setting up your Blur account, you can press the menu button and set up your wifi to work, this will connect you to Blur and your phone will be connected to the blur. If I were you I would be rethinking to do a data plan since you are really losing out on most of your main features of phones. It's your choice, however.

  • Legal question on the use of PwDump and utilities inject NT hashes in an ad

    Hello, I want to be able to inject actually stored in an OpenLDAP in a Drectory Active NT hashes.
    However, I have not found any solution without knowing the user to clear the password (which is not an acceptable solution for me).

    I intend to use the sources of PwDump6 and his ability to inject code through 'lsass.exe' to be able to import NT hashes in Active Directory using the method "SamrSetInformationUser".
    My question is not on the virtue of technique, but the legality of this.

    If I managed to do, - is it legal to use Microsoft point of view? And distribute the source publicly?

    It is a forum for peer to peer, not Microsoft. You will need to contact them directly. Look for the coordinates on the microsoft.com site

  • Question on the use of expressions and aliases in the FROM clause

    Hello

    I have the following query
     select substr(e.ename, iter.pos, 1) as C
       from (select 'KING' as ename from dual) e,
            (select rownum as pos from dictionary where rownum <= 100) iter
      where iter.pos <= length(e.ename);
    outputs (of your choice):
    C
    -
    K
    I
    N
    G
    For the purposes of hardcode 'KING' was made for the test, IRL would be a column from other tables. Is the other piece that is hardcoded "where rownum < = 100 ' and it's the one I would like to find a way to remove.

    I tried the following:
     select substr(e.ename, iter.pos, 1) as C
       from (select 'KING' as ename from dual) e,
            (select rownum as pos from dictionary where rownum <= length(e.ename)) iter
      where iter.pos <= length(e.ename);
    Unfortunately this does not work because the SQL parser has not analyzed enough of the FROM clause to know e.ename causing the length (e.ename) expression return a message identifier unknown.

    I tried to restructure the query above to make the SQL parser aware of the e.ename early enough and therefore accept it. My efforts have failed.

    I would like to know if there is a way to restructure the statement length (e.ename) can be used instead of Hardcoding an artificial upper limit (for example 100 as in the first statement).

    Thank you

    John.

    Use CONNECT BY LEVEL:

    SQL> select substr(ename, level, 1)
      2  from ( select 'KING' ename
      3         from   dual
      4       )

  • Using Windows Xp and Windows 7 in dual boot

    Hi all

    I'm new here because I like your forum for quick answers.

    Yesterday, I installed windows 7 on my laptop and Windows Xp added today.
    I want to have a dual operating system, so I can choose where I want to work.

    The problem is that Windows 7 is not available but only windows xp.
    I read it beter to install xp before 7.

    How can I manage now?
    Should I do a fresh install for Win 7?

    First of all it of Nice to hear that you like this forum, I love him too ;)

    Back to your question;
    You can use Win 7 and Win XP together!

    First of all, you need to install Win XP.
    You then create a second partition for Win XP.
    Then, you need to install Win XP on the second partition.
    But it could damage the Win 7 Startup Manager and you will be able to choose only to Win XP.

    This can be repaired. You take a disc of Windows 7 (not recovery disc! Win 7 disc should be) and have to boot from that disk it will repair Windows 7 boot disk

    Now, you might start in Win 7.
    Here you need to install a tool called EasyBCD. It s a Boot Manager tool that helps you to the entrance of Win XP to Windows 7 Boot Manager

    After that two BONES; Win 7 and Win XP will appear in the Boot Manager.

  • Using iCloud Drive on iPad as a backup documents, music and photos

    Hi all

    With my trusty laptop Windows now 6 years old, that I am looking to replace that with an iPad Pro I feel this will do everything (and more), I would need a laptop.

    My question is about the storage and backup of my documents, music and video files and so on.

    With my laptop, I use an external hard drive to create a backup copy of these files.

    I understand the main purpose of iCloud drive is to access your documents from any device, but this Act also as a method for creating a backup of my files? If not, is there another way to do this?

    Thank you very much

    Assuming that you are dealing with a PDF file provided by the IRS, you will not be able to e-sign. but you can fill the fields using Adobe Reader or Acrobat. The version of form W-9 that I have does not include a date field, but you can use the feedback tool add text to add a date. You can also digitally sign or use the annotation of pencil tool to draw a signature.

  • Problem configuring APC UPS and VMA

    I recently bought an APC Smart UPS 1500 and the Network Management Card so that I can gracefully shutdown my ESXi 5 guests and guests when the UPS is on battery. I'm just following the instructions here http://nam-en.apc.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/11588/~/install-pcns-3.0.1-on-esxi-5.0-with-vma-5.0 . I have gotten stuck on page 55 where I check the communication. When I run the command 'vicfg-NIC - l' he asks me a username and password. I tried to use admin, root and vi-admin passwords possible, nothing helps. I always "error connecting to Server"https://localhost/sdk/webService': Connection refused ""

    Now if I plan a stop of the inverter, the agent of the APC on VMA shows he knows a stop that happening, but it does not stop is ESXi guests or hosts.

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Andrew

    You must ensure that your server has been successfully added to vifp.

    sudo addserver vifp

    Make sure it is added:

    vifp mailing lists

    Then, run vifptarget s

    Then only the command 'vicfg-NIC-l' will work without additional options required.

  • Newbie question: how to use forms and collect signatures?

    Hello

    I could use some help on how to perform a task, I have been set.

    What we need to do:

    • Provide forms online for new recruits to view and electronically sign
    • Must be able to let people easily sign electronically forms without having to do a lot of work
    • Forms must contain a checksum to indicate that they have not been tampered after signing
    • Forms must be printable by newly hired staff to allow them to keep their information

    Can someone tell me what to do and buy so that we can do this?

    Sorry for the beginners question, but I tried to search for this and did not have a lot of luck to get a clear answer on how to do what we are looking for.

    Thank you!

    PEI

    The number of forms you'll be colecting will be a problem then. When you enable a document signed and recorded with Acrobat Pro and you distribute the form to more than 500 recipients, you are limited by the license agreement Acrobat from not more than 500 cases of the form data that was provided to you, including paper copies.

    You can avoid this limitation by allowing the reader to the document using Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions Server product, but this can be expensive. There used to be an Adobe authorized third party (FormRouter.com) which could compatible reader of individual documents so that you wouldn't have to license Reader Extensions yourself. I heard that they are is no longer allowed, but you might want to contact them to make sure.

    It is not difficult to set up a new digital ID. You can try it yourself to see what it is.

    Adobe also has the new EchoSign service available, then you might wish to consider to see if it can meet your needs: http://www.echosign.com/

  • Exchange server and Surface RT, can I use Mail app to connect to the Exchange Server for email (the same question is for contacts or people and calendar)?

    Hello

    Our company uses an Exchange Server for email, contacts and calendar.

    Can I use Mail app to connect to the Exchange Server for email (the same question is for contacts or people and calendar)?

    Kind regards

    Matej

    You must install the SSL certificate before connect you to the Regional service, the easiest way is to go to "desktop" IE10 open, go to the exchange server web access page, click on the notification of "certificate error" red and view / install the store "certificate authorities roots of trust." Then, make sure that your surface RT complies with the minimum requirements of security then connect to the exchange via the mail application server.

  • I want to open two different pdf documents and view them at the same time so I can read about everything by watching the other document.  I use Acrobat DC and whenever I open a document it creates a tab and I can only examine a document at a time.
