Script to determine the versions of ESX hosts

Hi all

I ran a few basic using Power CLi reports & a few gui based ones, but im findning it is difficult to determine the versions of the host. That is to say, I have some hosts ESX and ESXi on the same number of version 4.0.0 is there a way to filter hosts that are running on ESX as im going through a process of upgrading all hosts to ESXi 4.1.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, use

Get-VMHost | Select Name,@{N="Product; E={$_. Extensiondata.Config.Product.Name}}

  • determine the Version of ESX (3.5 and 4.0)

    In the old days, we can determine the esx version from a file xml on/etc/vmware/patchdb

    ESXver ='cat /etc/vmware/patchdb/3*.xml | grep "| Cut - c12 - 16'

    But this file is no longer available on vsphere 4.0

    Is there an easy way (a command) or a file I can analyse that will tell my script if the current esx host is 3.0, 3.5, or 4.0?

    something like that?

    [root@ ~]# vmware -v
    VMware ESX 4.0.0 build-208167

  • Script to determine the type of OS related

    Hello

    I am trying to determine the version or the name of the operating system used by the Client of the view for use in a Powershell script. I know that in the variables view / volatile environment that ViewClient_Type stores Windows, but I would like to get more detailed, then just information Windows. I was wondering if anyone had come across similar scenarios and might be able to provide assistance or suggestions on ways to circumvent this. The environment is running VMWare View 5.0.

    I tried to use a remote WMI query - that works fine for a user admin, but the majority of users is an admin rather than on the local client, and I'm a little reluctant to the idea of having to change the WMI security on each client to make it work.

    Any help would be great.

  • Using Script to check the version of Adobe Reader software

    Hello. I am now currently using LiveCycle Designer to create a form that allows users to attach attachments. We found that if a user uses Adobe Reader 7.0 or below, there is a problem on fixing attachments. Accordingly, we would like to add a script to check the version of the Adobe Reader client in a ready state of the form. If a user uses Adobe 7.0 or below, the message box opens and suggests the user to download a more recent version of the Adobe Reader software. I would like to know is possible to do so. Thank you very much

    Hello

    the script might look like:

    If (typeof (app.viewerVersion)! = "undefined")

    If (app.viewerVersion<>

    {

    xfa.host.messageBox ("your Version of Adobe Reader is old...");

    }

    }

    You can use it in the docReady:Event of your form to inform users.

  • How can I determine the version UEFI implemented by the firmware of a PC?

    I found several ways to determine the version of the firmware/BIOS on a PC – for example mine is FRIEND v8.15 (05/02/2013).

    But is there anyway to determine which version of the UEFI is implemented by this firmware?

    I tried to find a description of the FRIEND v8.15 which maybe provided this information, but has not been successful.

    As a last resort, I considered as written to the company - but before that, any other ideas you have are appreciated.

    Hello

    Windows 7 doesn't support secure boot.  A lot of settings in the BIOS to do still get Windows 7 to boot UEFI mode as well as the support of compatibility (CSM) model in the BIOS offers the correct BIOS options.

    Frankly, I wouldn't buy a W7 PC delivered these days here as W10 is a great OS. If you have an application that proved not to be compatible with W10 then run it in compatibility mode.

    I've not seen many cases where different levels of BIOS are available for W7 or W8 and W10.  However, you might find instances where the BIOS runs only in UEFI mode.

  • Essbase calc script to determine the number of occurrence

    Hello

    is it possible within a calc script to determine the number of occurrence of a value in the account dimension?

    I have an account called ranks which can contain any value between 1 and 10.  I would like to know how many times each value is repeated for a specific cost center.  It's in a database of planning BSO.

    Thanks in advance for your contributions...

    CL

    This isn't the typical calculation you would do in an OLAP architecture, but yes it is certainly possible.

    you will need to create 10 accounts such as occurrence_of_1, occurrence_of_2 etc.

    Then you increment them according to the value of the 5th year.

    Don't forget to put in your calculation!

    I suspect you could use PowerShell v1, in this version that the Export-Csv has not had the UseCulture parameter.

    Try to run the script without this parameter.

    But I would strongly suggest to upgrade your version of PowerShell (v3 is available)

  • Determine the version of Orchestrator from code?

    Thanks to some environments inherited, that we support, we have several versions of Orchestrator running in our environment. We run a common code base for all versions, so our workflows are the same on all instances of Orchestrator, but sometimes we need to run slightly different code on different versions of Orchestrator.

    The question is, is there a way I can tell from Orchestrator which version is running? Right now we run a local "hostname" command to get the name of the server Orchestrator and our decisions around that, but I wanted to know if there was a more graceful way / Dynamics to determine which versions. Is there something in the API or any object script that I can use for this information?

    Thank you!

  • Determine the Version of InDesign (for equivalent javascript applescript)

    I have next to no knowledge of javascript, or where to go for help? I have an Applescript easy I want to convert it to javascript.

    For starters, anyone knows the equivalent following javascript code for this line of code:

    the version of the application 'com.adobe.InDesign' myVersion id value as string

    The other part of the script, I might be able to understand mine. Unless at some point given I have to find a PC user to provide the path to the folder 'en_US' of the InDesign preferences folder.

    With the help of a File.openDialog (); would get around not knowing the path hard-coded, but defeats the purpose and effectiveness of the script. I want the end user to be able to assign a shortcut to this script, which would open so all their files in InDesign library with a simple keyboard command.

    -Determine what version of InDesign, running as a string

    Tell application id "com.adobe.InDesign".

    activate

    the version of the application 'com.adobe.InDesign' myVersion id value as string

    -Display dialog myVersion

    If myVersion begins with '6' then

    myVersion set to "version 6.0".

    Otherwise, if myVersion begins with "7.0" then

    myVersion set to "Version 7.0".

    Otherwise, if myVersion begins with "7.5" then

    myVersion set to "Version 7.5.

    Otherwise, if myVersion begins with '8.' then

    myVersion set to "Version 8.0".

    Otherwise, if myVersion begins with '9.' then

    Otherwise, if myVersion begins with "10.0" then

    myVersion set to "version 10.0.

    Otherwise, if myVersion begins with "11.0" then

    myVersion set to "version 11.0.

    Hi Jeff,

    for ExtendScript (JavaScript), you can search for properties, values and functions etc.pp. here:

    Excellent documentation of DOM of Jongware. Go for chm files, if you want to search in offline mode:

    InDesign JavaScript help

    And by Gregor Fellenz DOM documentation:

    InDesign ExtendScript API (8.0)

    InDesign ExtendScript API (10.0)

    InDesign ExtendScript API (11.0)

    If you search for 'application', you'll notice, this is a 'version' "app" object property

    var myVersion = "version"+" "+parseFloat(app.version);
    alert(myVersion);
    

    No ifs and ifs remains necessary.
