Script to list the information under Configuration/Storage/datastore details
Hello, I'm trying to create a script that returns the details data Configuration/Storage/Datastore/store info. The thing I want the script to do is list my ESX:s, data of list store names, list mpathpolicy and the details of the data store paths section in the VI client.
Is it possible to get this in a script? Or if anyone knows how I can get information from the info of paths in Details of the data store to the VI client
Thanks in advance
This is possible if you use the SDK.
The following script lists the name of host, name of DS, political path and the number of paths.
If you need other information on the page of details in the report let me know.
$report = @() Get-VMHost | Get-View | %{ $esx = $_ $esx.Datastore | %{Get-View $_} | where {$_.SUmmary.Type -eq "VMFS"} | %{ $ds = $_ $ds.Info.Vmfs.Extent | %{ $ext = $_ $extKey = ($esx.Config.StorageDevice.ScsiLun | where {$_.CanonicalName -eq $ext.DiskName}).Key $lun = $esx.Config.StorageDevice.MultipathInfo.Lun | where {$_.Lun -eq $extKey} $row = "" | Select ESXname, DSname, "Path Selection","Paths Total" $row.ESXname = $esx.Name $row.DSname = $ds.Name $row."Path Selection" = &{ switch($lun.Policy.Policy){ "VMW_PSP_FIXED"{"Fixed"} "VMW_PSP_RR"{"Round Robin"} "VMW_PSP_MRU"{"Most Recently Used"} } } $row."Paths Total" = $lun.Path.Count $report += $row } } } $report

I need a script to list all PO numbers within a specific range of accounting code. The script is used for the assessment of the stock.

Change the PowerCLI Script to use the DRS and DRS storage
Hello
I have a PowerCLI script that specifies a host and a data store to create a new virtual machine, which has served us well. Now we have activated the DRS and DRS storage and I wonder what to change in order to take advantage of these features. Are there commands to specify a cluster and the cluster data store and let the DRS to decide the initial investment for a new virtual machine? At the moment we put all hosts and the warehouses of data as variables and use them in the line below.
Thank you.
$newVM = New-VM-name $NewVMname - VM $TemplateName Datastore - $datastore - VMHost $vHost - confirm: $false - location $myName
You set a Datastorecluster?
If Yes, then you can replace the value of parameter data with the datastorecluster object store.
Replacing a VMHost with a cluster is not taken in charge I'm afraid.
But you can use something like this
New-VM-name TestVM Datastore - DSC - ResourcePool (Get-Cluster-name mycluster |) Get - Resourcepool - name of resources)
This will automatically select the VMHost.
The virtual machine appears in the root of the cluster.
DSC is the name of a datastorecluster in the cluster mycluster

Are you allowed to enable SSH on servers ESX (i)?
And are you allowed to establish a SSH session on each ESX (i) Server?
You have an account and a password on each ESX (i) server that can run the command 'df '?
If it is Yes, then you can use something like plink.exe in consequence of PuTTY to connect to each ESX (i) server, run the command "df" and retrieve the output.
There are several available examples to use plink.
And don't forget that you will need a fingerprint for each server ESX (i) will be stored on the client from which you are running the script.

Newbie question: show all files under Configuration == >; storage?
Hello
I have been using VMware workstation for awhile, but at work, we have been 'given' an ESX instance for development which access us via Vcenter.
From the workstation, I am not so familiar with this environment, so I hope I write at least in an appropriate place ...
Anyway, my question is that when I'm in Vcenter and go to the Configuration tab, then storage (left) to see what is different volumes, I * think * that it shows all files. For example, if I have a VMDK, it is to show only the VMDK root and not the flat file. I know that because we've created a guest with a 50 GB disc, and when we downloaded "the VMDK", we ended up with the smallest hard, as well as the largest flat hard-xxx.
As I said I'm more use on my computer, where I have full access to the underlying files, so it takes some time to get used to this environment.
The reason for the question is that I'm used to things like manually copying my base VMDK files when I create my own clones, but since with Vcenter, I can't 'see' all the vmdk, I kind of don't know what I'm doing deal with.
I hope this makes sense?
Thank you
Jim
Difference between VMDK and Flat.VMDK.
VMDK is a discriptor file mapped to raw disk (flat.vmdk).
Flat.VMDK is a raw disk where all system data is backed up.
For example, you create any disk on a virtual machine you will get 2 files one is vmdk and another is flat.vmdk.
VMDK are visible when you go to the configuration and storage tab and browse the data store and will not be displayed it default flat.vmdk.
But a raw disk, you can see when you connect console esxi ot via putty and go to vmfs\volumes\VM name\ flat.vmdk.
When you download, you will be able to download vmdk and flat.vmdk. If you download only vmdk on the navigation data store.

Need a script that lists the VM with a snapshot
Hello
I am relatively new to powershell scripting and even newer to the vSphere CLI. I have no problem reading and understanding scripts, but what makes one is another story. In any case, I'm looking for help to create a script that will check that all the vm's on all ESX hosts, if they have a snapshot and if they echo the name of the virtual machine to the screen.
That's what I have so far but I'm stuck and probably on the wrong track. Any help/suggestions are welcome!
$user = "< removed >.
$passw = "< removed >.
$VIServers = "< IP ESXi host >", "< IP ESX Host1 >', '< IP ESX Host2 >', '< IP ESX Host3 >', '< IP ESX Host4 >', '< IP ESX Host5 >', '< IP ESX Host6 >.{foreach ($VIServer to $ViServers)
SE connect-VIServer-Server $VIServer - user $user-password $passw
$vms = get-vmhost $VIServer | Get - vm{foreach ($vm to $vms)
< code that checks to see if there is a snapshot and echo is the name of the virtual machine to the screen. Clueless >}
}
}Forward thanks!
Kind regards

Why directly to the ESX: you?... To connect to vCenter instead and then it s very easy...

Hello
I would like to know if there is a microsoft tool or a suggested list of Microsoft that could help me restore the system and the system configuration files in the appropriate State. is not the restoration of the system. I don't know of retoring my computer to an earlier time, nor on the restoration of computer purchase.
I thought that my computer has been compromised in some way, and the intruder was accessing my unit via some sort of connection distance.
I received the support of the malicious software company, and I think that my computer is fine now.
And so the question with which I opened this post: I would like to know if there is a Microsoft tool or a suggested list of Microsoft that would help me to restore the system and the system configuration files in the appropriate State. I'm not taling about system restore. I speak not of retoring my computer to an earlier time.
Whenever I start to notice the strange behaviour of my computer, I would like to launch this program and follow this procedure to reset all the settings and files to a suitable State. The reason why run alone to detect malware problems, and that if there is remote access to my computer inadvertently, the intruder can do a lot of editing of files which is not identified by the malware. and I believe that if I was able to run a program like this, all the changes took place, which expose my device, but the rules of behavior systems can be reversed for a proper state.
I read an article on how to repair my operating system, but it forced me to get a copy of it; However, given that the supplied operating system with preinstalled on this computer, I could not follow the instructions. Article I read to all system and configuration files that meet the standards of the manufacturer, without losing files and installed programs.
Thank you

For the information of the BIOS and Firmware. of PowerCLI
Hi all
Can anyone please share a PowerCLI script to get the information on all hosts in vCenter below?
1 version of the BIOS
2. date of the BIOS
3 the firmware version
4. date of the firmware
I have this but it shows that for a single server and only the details of the BIOS. I want to all hosts in the vCenter.
$VMHost = Get-VMHost 'Server01' | Get-View $VMHost.Hardware.BiosInfo
Thank you
Nick
To run this for multiple ESX (i) servers you can do
Get-view ViewType - HostSystem | Select the Name,@{N="BIOS version"; E={$_. Hardware.BiosInfo.BiosVersion}},
@{N = "Date of the BIOS"; E={$_. Hardware.BiosInfo.releaseDate}}Note that the presence of these values depends on the HW you use.
There are several types of HW from different vendors who do not properly fulfill these values.
Not sure what you mean with the properties of the firmware.
These appear in the vSphere Client?
