Replace SCSI with PowerCLI paravirtual adapater

Hi all

I have people on my site that Canoe follow documentation, so I'm trying a little easier, but not having not much of chance.  After I install my servers ESX 1 update, I would like to automate the update of the comment tools and replace disk paravirtual cards.  The upgrade of the tools is easy because I see the cmdlet to do, but nobody knows how to determine the type of scsi adapter a virtual machine use and replace it with VMware paravirtual on Windows 2003 / 2008 Windows guests using powershell.

Thank you

Mike

Take a look at my script in the section failover to the Paravirtual SCSI controller.

  • Help with - replace in powershell/powercli

    I'm working on a material report for my ESX hosts. This issue is more a question of a matter of powercli powershell, but I know that people smart here will be able to help!

    I have a file which contains some output. The output is a host name and a model of my ESX Server.

    It looks like this:

    host1.domain1PowerEdgeM610

    host2.domainxyzPowerEdgeM710

    I want to look like this:

    host1.Domain1, PowerEdgeM610

    host2.domainxyz, PowerEdgeM710

    but account for any host name or the model (using wildcards)

    I try to use the command replace to enter a comma between the host name and server type. All types of servers are something PowerEdge.

    I can't understand the syntax to do this... Anyone has any suggestions on a command replace to replace * power * with *, * power while retaining the name and model?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello, sdionsw-

    You can use the - replace to do such a replacement, such as:

    "host1.domain1PowerEdgeM610" -replace "(.*)(PowerEdge.*)", "`$1,`$2"
    

    However, it might be better to focus less on string manipulation and use some of the power of PowerShell using simply the properties of objects which you retrieved strings.  So, rather than create a string that is hostnameHostModel then having to divide with some regex, you could simply select 'Name' and 'Model' properties of the given VMHosts:

    PS C:\> Get-VMHost | Select-Object Name,Model
    
    Name             Model----             -----vmhost0.dom.com  HP DL580 G8vmhost1.dom.com  HP DL580 G8
    

    So, if you need a CSV data file, you can then export the information to CSV, via Export-Csv:

    PS C:\> Get-VMHost | Select-Object Name,Model | Export-Csv c:\temp\myVMHostInfo.csv -UseCulture
    

    Make sense?

  • in bulk license with PowerCLI 6.0 Release 2 broken?

    Hello

    I upgraded successfully to PowerCLI 6.0 Release 1 to PowerCLI 6.0 Release 2.

    After that, I wanted to add a new license to the license in bulk newly deployed ESXi Hosts with Auto deploy but encountered the following error:

    $licenseData = new-Object VMware.VimAutomation.License.Types.LicenseData

    New-Object: cannot find type [VMware.VimAutomation.License.Types.LicenseData]: check that the assembly containing this type is loaded.

    + CategoryInfo: InvalidType: (:)) [New-Object], PSArgumentException)

    + FullyQualifiedErrorId: TypeNotFound, Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.NewObjectCommand

    I'm sure that it worked with PowerCLI 6.0 Release 1.

    Did someone else run into it as well? Perhaps no work around?

    I appreciate your help.

    see you soon,

    Ronny

    Hello

    It is a backward compatibility problem that was introduced in PowerCLI 6.0R2. It will be addressed in a version of the next patch very soon, but until then, you can work around

    replacement of

    'VMware.VimAutomation.License.Types.LicenseData '.

    with

    'VMware.VimAutomation.License.Types.V1.LicenseData '.

    Keep in mind that if you do the above to make your script works and later upgrade your PowerCLI to a version more recent that you should check back this change in scripts.

  • Satellite U840W - replacement SSD with current hybrid HARD drive

    I have this model U840W with a hybrid HARD drive (500 GB + 32 GB SSD cache), I would like to replace it with an mSATA SSD. My warranty is left about 2 months... I understand that if I open the bottom cover, the guarantee may be cancelled.

    Read the following thread:

    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=68779

    What I don't understand is the "live in the mid under foot rubber", what is the best way to remove it? This seems to be the real challenge. A directive (preferably with photos)?

    Thanks in adv!

    Hello

    I wouldn't recommend allows you to replace the hybrid HARD drive on your own even if hand warranty isn't valid anymore.
    Why?
    Because the after replacing a drive HARD or SSD, RAID and TSRI (quick start of Intel technology) mode will not be available.

    To rebuild the factory RAID mode and allow the TSRI, special tools are needed and this can be done by the authorized Toshiba maintainer.

    So even if you would be able to remove the bottom cover and hybrids of HARD drive, the new inserted SSD would not be able to achieve the best performance.

  • Satellite M30: Replace DVD with additional HARD disk?

    Hello!

    As my Satellite M30-642 does not offer a modular Bay for the installed switches and I have a DVD burner for USB that I can use I think try an experiment: withdrawal of the DVD drive and replace it with an extra HDD/SSD.

    As SSDS are very light, have no moving parts and does not necessarily need screws to be installed and the slot DVD brings the IDE and this could work to power connector. The DSS must be placed inside an old and updated the slimline cd-rom so that the change is not visible and the laptop is safe from dust etc.

    Has anyone tried something like this before? Are there solutions to buy for Sat M30 (2004 vintage)?

    Cheers, obreitfelder

    Hello

    As far as I know the Sat M30 doesn t support the slim select Bay and, therefore you cannot use this adapter instead of the CD/DVD drive.

    Sorry, it is not possible

    Good bye

  • HP dv6 envy: want to know on the best internal hard drive to replace it with

    Hi friends... I return my hp dv6 want 3 years and it has worked well for me so far, but since last month, everytime I turn on my laptop, a message is popping indicating that YOUR HARD DISK has FOUND YEAR IMMINENT FAILURE AND there NEED TO BE REPLACED and I studied a lot of posts here regarding this problem and everyone was asked to replace it with a new one. I don't know what drive should I replace it with. Could someone please help me in this regard. I need the following details:

    1. where can I find new internal hard drive HP ENVY DV6 1 to buy?

    2. can we replace this hard drive with the hard drive to other companies? (such as seaggate)... If so, so, please let me know

    3. can I replace the hard drive with a hard drive of 1 to solid state?

    4. links to vendors who sell internal hard drive?

    Please help me friends...

    The answer is Yes in all areas. The laptop will accept any 2.5 inch wide disk SATA 9.5 or 7 mm thick and which includes mechanical hard drives and Solid State drives. Where are you located (one country)? Hard drives and SSDS for laptops are a part of the goods. You can pick them up at a Best Buy or Frys if you live where there are no Frys or you can use amazon.com or newegg.com or similar online service. The prices vary a lot, so it is useful to get a good deal. A 1 to SSD can run more than $300, you know. Need instructions for installing and/or migrating software? We are a bit like McDonalds here in the Forum... served billion regarding replace drive hard/updates to level. One of the specialties of the House, so to speak.

  • How to get rid of Windows 8 and replace it with Windows 7

    I bought my HP Pavilion laptop G6 in December 2012, when all the they had was Windows 8 machines.  So I thought I would give it a try.  Well, I have 8 months now and I still hate Windows 8 .  I want to replace it with Windows 7, the latest stable known operating system launched by Microsoft.  But I heard that recent material doesn't have even a device to support Win7 drivers.

    Is there something I can do?

    Thank you

    -ken

    Hi Ken,

    There is no reason that you should not be able to install and run Windows 7 on your laptop.

    While it is true that HP provide no Windows 7 drivers for machines shipped with Windows 8, you should always be able to find all the relevant Win 7 drivers, you will need.

    What is the complete model number and your notebook series g6 Nr? -See here for a guide to the location of such information.

    Kind regards
