Running Powershell as remote command

• Run remote commands like gpuvm and pcoip-ctrl

  Hi, I am a total beginner powercli, so please tell me if this is the wrong direction completely. I run a few servers ESXi 5 with Nvidia grid K1 and Teradici Apex 2800 cards in them. There are a few commands that I can run when you are connected to the host via putty that I would like to be able to remotely run instead. I have connected to my hosts via powercli and it seems that it is set only to run the specific commands that are embedded in the program. Is it possible to run these other remote controls that would work from the console for ESXi?

  Maybe this plugin can be useful:

• Remote command fails when cross Foglight, but ok using command line

  Try to perform an action simple remote command when a rule triggers the file /sharedScripts of monitoring system.  When the alarm is triggered, an email is sent and action of remote command to find and remove the logs more than 10 days is supposed to work.

  The command to run is:

  find/sharedScripts/set - name "* .log" \ (-type f-mtime + 10 \)-exec rm {} \;) ""

  This command works well from the command line on the server, but when it is run by a remote control action, we get the following exception:

  2015-07-20 19:04:30.556 WARN [Action-4-wire-3856] com.quest.nitro.service.action.impl.command.RemoteCommandAction - the remote execution failed on the host prod - 108.llbean.com for the command "find/sharedScripts/set - name" * .log "------(-type f-mtime + 10 \)-exec rm {}------;)" "with the following error: 1.»

  I tried many iterations of escape characters, single/double quotes, etc...

  Has anyone else tried something like this?  I understand that I could create a script that has this command in it, but if I can avoid that I would because a similar process will be implemented through a hundred servers with different commands according to the system of files in place. In this regard, I would like to manage everything centrally if I can.

  Hi Golan-

  Thanks for the reply.  I got a response back from support today and it turns out that some avoidance that is required to run the command from the command line has been the cause of the problem running like a remote control action.

  This command works well on the command line:

  find/sharedScripts/set - name "* .log" \ (-type f-mtime + 10 \)-exec rm {} \;) ""

  but the avoidance of parentheses problem in Foglight. The following seems to work as a remote command:

  find/sharedScripts/set - name "* .log"(-type f-mtime+10)-exec rm {} \; "."

• See Planner 3.0.1 - test questions running simple-VM-remote-RDP

  Hello

  I am trying to run the remote RDP Single-VM test according to the instructions of Installation and user's Guide.

  When I start this test, the client virtual machine console turns off completely and I'm unable to see if any operation is going on.

  Also 'viewplanner.log' shows "connection started from the client: fe80::457f:815 c: a8b6:317% 13" message and I see no progress after that. "

  Everyone met such a problem? Any ideas?

• Struggling to run Powershell scripts / commands

  Hi all!

  I'm fighting to get the Powershell vCO workflow.  I think I missed something really obvious, but I can't see it...

  I did the set Kerberos in place on the line of my vCO 5.5.2 machine.  I added a Powershell v2 host using VMWare provided Powershell 1.0.4 workflows plugin install, Kerberos authentication and using a shared account (mine, I know that I am an admin on Windows Server).  I assured the Kerberos authentication and unencrypted traffic is accepted on the Powershell host.  If I validate the object created at the CVO, he says it's fine.

  When I come to run another VMware provided workflow, I get responses to error because the workflow doesn't seem to be properly trained, or I get a null response.  When I run a workflow, I can see my account by logging in the Windows Server 2008 security log, so I'm pretty confident that the basic connection and portions of Kerberos are all ok.

  I just tried to simplify a VMware provided workflow, to make it as a possible base (code below).  I always get a Null response.  Anyone have any ideas why?  Or did someone is able to provide the code for a very simple Powershell-based workflow that they know works so I can test it on my set up?

  The VMWare-based simple powershell script provided one to get the contents of some directories and the values that I use - it returns null:

  the hostentry, type: PowerShell:PowerShellHost, value: < myPowershellHostSelectedFromPluginManually >

  Directoryentry, type: String, value: I manually enter $home.  Or C:.  Or C:\Windows.  Or any other directory I know there is that my user account has no light problem.

  output of the result, type: string, value: regardless of the ("DIR" + directory) output >

  var Sess;

  connect to the host

  Sess = host.openSession)

  Send the command in powershell

  sess.addCommandFromString ("dir" + directory)

  invoke the command

  invResult = sess.invokePipeline ();

  get the result

  Result = invResult.getResults)

  Send to open a session

  System.log ("Result is" + result)

  Thank you very much in advance!

  And there we go...  Who sets: powershell.exe wasn't in the path of the Windows host!

  Thanks for the help everyone, especially igaydajiev for giving me the pointer of the final to my answer!

• Running Powershell script with ESXCLI commands via a scheduled task in Windows 2012 does not work.

  I'm trying to run a powershell script of a scheduled task in Windows 2012. The script calls the commands ESXCLI and ends with success (exporting to a CSV file) but the file has no data inside.  If I run the script manually without the scheduled task file has all the I expect to exit.

  I wonder if there is a framework with Powershell or a PSSnapin I need to add to the script for it to run via a scheduled task.  Has anyone done this before with the ESXCLI commands?

  panhvr - you may to something.  The process account that I use to run this script has only read-only access in vCenter.  I logged on the server I am running these reports with the process ID and tried to run the script.  He gave me errors indicating permission to perform the operations of esxcli was denied.

  I think we found the culprit!  I'll have this process ID in vCenter rights upward.

  Thank you all!

• Run a remote command on a virtual machine

  I have a remote application that generated virtual machines by request. After that each machine is generated and custom, I need to run a command-line on this machine (machine all have Windows OS installed) of the application itself.

  Is there a way to do it through the java/vsphere API?  (The machine is running on)

  Thank you

  the vSphere API does not provide capabilities to execute commands within the guestOS which is what uses the SDK for Java (VMware Tech Preview of Java SDK) and VI (Version of Steve Jin).

  However, VMware has an another API that is available for the management of comments called VIX API. This API allows you to perform operations within the guest, transfer files to/from host, etc. There is even a project open source similar to that of VI Java API called Toolkit Java VIX you could look in - http://sourceforge.net/projects/vixjava/

• Question about the use of OdiOSCommand to run remote commands

  Hi all
  
  I have a query on OdiOSCommand
  
  
  I have two following servers.
  A server running and odi agent
  Server B agent running odi - but no a pots to odi - and odiparams.sh set up correctly.
  
  Now I regularly invoke scripts on server B (using startscen.sh) that use the agent on the server. It works fine - once odiparams.sh is correctly set up for standards etc.
  
  Now I have a new scenario that has an order of OdiOSCommand. Yet once again, I invoke the script from Server B, to use the agent on the server. The OdiOSCommand passes just a shell script, and there is no problem of permission.
  I expect the command to execute on the server where the agent is running (e.g., Server A) - but its execution on the server where I invoke the script (IE Server B). I can prove it by temporarily replacing the calling script with a mkdir test_dir schell.
  
  Is it possible in odi to invoke a command on a remote linux server - when the remote server is running an odi agent. I know there are other ways to do this - ssh etc. - but I try to keep this reality to a package of odi of maintainability.
  
  Thanks for the research!

  This thread responds to what you are looking for:
  Re: Startscen using an existing running agent could process

  Basically, startscen.sh branches off to a local agent on server B, and so the script also runs on server B.
  You must use startcmd.sh instead.
