The list of all virtual machines with more than 2 virtual disks

Hello.

I want to list all virtual machines in a data center vCenter, who got more than 2 virtual disks. Here's the workflow, I am working on that:

1 get the view of data center

2. get the Cluster Data Center view like the 'begine_entity '.

3. for each view cluster overview the VirtualMachine bit cluster seen as 'begin_entity '.

4. for each VM view, this information: VirtualMachine-> config-> hardware-> device of

Above information is a table.

I need help in order to extract information from this table disk, then run an if condition where the VM who got more than 2 discs should print.

Could help you. I wrote the script to the point 4. just need advice for the posterior.

Thank you.

You can try one of the following values-

1 If ($vm-> {'summary.config.numVirtualDisks'} > 2) {...}

2 $diskCnt = grep {$_-> isa ('VirtualDisk')} @{$vm-> {'config.hardware.device'}};

The above assumes that you've got your $vm with a filter property as follows:

$vms = Vim::find_entity_views (view_type-online 'VirtualMachine'), the properties-online ['summary.config.numVirtualDisks', 'name', 'config.hardware.device'];

my $vm foreach (@{$vms}) {}

...

}

  • Cannot start a virtual machine with more than 1 CPU socket added

    I've set up a few boxes of ESXi 5.5 with the free license in recent weeks, they have all been without problems so far. All 4 servers have the same exact hardware

    Environment:

    Dell Poweredge T620

    E5-2630 2 Intel CPU

    40 GB OF DDR3 ECC RAM

    ESXi is installed on 2 x 146 GB 15 K SAS drives RAID-1

    Data for virtual machines store are 8 x 600 GB 10 K SAS RAID-10 disc

    Guest operating system is Server2012r2 on all virtual machines

    Installed it on ESXi 3 previous were conducted with custom ESXi 5.5 Dell without problem.

    The 4th is where I will have questions. I used the following ESXi installed just in case there is a bug somewhere

    5.5 of VMware ESXi

    ESXi 5.5 customized by Dell

    5.5 U1 of VMware ESXi

    Any version of the ESXi I use I can't have a virtual machine to begin with more than 1 CPU socket added to it. The virtual machine does not start even the VMWare BIOS. I tried the Bios EFI as well with no luck. The error message I get in the events is ' fatal error VMware ESX: vcpu (vcpu-X)-X:VM - entry failed; Valid VMCS (error code 8). The vcpu-X is always another. I have attached the log file is created. If I give the VM 1 single processor TI starts very well. I'm at a loss as to what could be the issue.

    Problem is solved. I caught another server with identical hardware, verified it worked properly, then started to swap parts between them. Turned out to be CPU1. Once this has been replaced from a working server I have not had any problems. Warranty has been appealed.

    Thanks for all the help!

  • Cannot create a virtual machine with more than 256 GB

    I thought that the max capacity 2 TB vm. but I can't create a virtual machine more than 256 GB. what I am doing wrong?

    Thank you

    You probably use a block size of 1 MB, which limits a single HDD 256 GB.  You will need a larger block size

    1 MB = 256 GB

    2 512 GB

    4 MB = 1024 GB

    8 MB = 2048 GB

  • The list of all virtual machines to a host group in Virtual Machine port group

    Ladies and gentlemen,

    I would like to create a powershell script to list all my virtual machines to a host, but a group of Machine virtual PortGroup... It is possible...? I see only found Internet see the VirtualPortGroup of the host...

    Thanks in advance & looks

    All your VMS have a mapping single portgroup or it not with multiple NICs on different port groups?

    If they are all the same, then the following should work:

  • The list of all the virtual machines of an organization

    Hi all

    I use .net api for vcloud. I need the list of all virtual machines of an organization. How I do that?

    Kamal

    Hello

    A paralytic can contain several virtual machines. Once, you get the use of vApp, the GetChildrenVms() for the confined list of the VM.

    VAPP vapp = Vapp.GetVappByReference (customer, vAppRef);

    foreach (VAPP vm in VAPP. {GetChildrenVms()})

    Console.WriteLine ("" + vm.) Reference.Name);

    Console.WriteLine ("" + vm.) Reference.href);

    }

    Creating a paralyzed man from a vAppTemplate will contain the same number of VM contained in a vAppTempalte.

    If the vAppTemplate contains 3 VM inside. VApp created using the vAppTempalte would also contain the same 3 VM.

    Ex: If the Ex vAppTempalte: WebApplication-vAppTemplate contains a DatabaseVM and AppServerVM.

    VApp created from the Ex vAppTemplate: WebApplication-VAPP will also contain a DatabaseVM and AppServerVM.

    Kind regards

  • Licenses to create a virtual machine is second with more than 8 cores?

    So, we have a machine with 4 physical Sockets with 16 cores on each. We bought 4 licenses of vmware's standard. Now, we saw early on that the number max of hearts that we assign to a virtual machine was 32, which isn't really a big problem, 32 is a lot for our needs. So we have a 32 core virtual machine running and some other smaller, but now when I try to create another virtual machine with more than 8 cores it tells me that I have insufficient licenses.

    Can anyone provide more information on that? If I can create a virtual machine with more than 8 cores, why I can't create a new one?

    He said authorized to 4 physical processors, so it's ok, it's using your Standard licenses.

    During the 60-day trial, you could create more large virtual machines, because the 60 days run with Enterprise Plus features. Now that you are using the standard license, you can create only 8 vCPU VMs.

    Solution:

    You should spend 5.5 ESXi. Your license will also work for 5.5 and you'll be able to create virtual machines with up to 64 vCPUs.

  • need to vmdk with more than size of 2 TB

    Hello

    I install ESXi5 on 2 x 72 > RAID 5 and create VMs on it (2008), now I have to create vmdk and assign it to this virtual machine with more than 2.5 TB of size.

    I creat new RAID set and now I have data store with 3 TB space, but I can't to creat 2.5 or more to vmdk

    How can I create?  How can I activate the RAW Disk Mapping on the local storage?...

    you will not see local hard drives, it is already in the RAID, then only you can see the raid volume. Which is given below

    MPX.vmhba2:C0:t0:l0<-- disk="">

    MPX.vmhba2:C0:t0:l0:1<-- partition="">

    MPX.vmhba2:C0:t0:l0:2<-- partition="">

    It is not recommended to violate the recommended settings and rules given by vmware, it will raise many problems and if it is in production you will be screwed. On the thing you can do, is to create dynamic disks and create a split volume.

    http://www.Techotopia.com/index.php/Creating_and_Managing_Simple_and_Spanned_Volumes_on_Windows_Server_2008

    If you still want to go for RDM local pause, the RAID and see if it detects the ESX or not and if you can see the individual disks and if you are able to make RDM with these discs, then back to the VM will intervene only individual HDD so no raid and protection? So it is very risky

    You use SQL * more your front end?

    SQL * Plus has a fixed width to display all columns. The default for numbers is 10 characters. If necessary, SQL * Plus will be round a number or the use of scientific notation, to represent the number of the expected number of characters.
    You can use the SQL * more "SET NUMLARGEUR" to change the default view for all the numbers of orders, or "COLUMN" to set a sepcific format in an individual column.
    If you explicitly convert your channel numbers in a query, SQL * Plus adjusts the column width to whatever is needed. For example

    SELECT  TO_CHAR (fee_amt, 'TM')     AS fee_amt_d
    

    "TM" is the default format; You can call TO_CHAR with a single argument, if you prefer.

  • How to list all the vm with more than one network card?

    Hello

    Is it possible to only list all my s vm in my environment with more than one network card?

    I tried using the Get-NetowrkAdapter cmdlet, but could not get the desired results.

    Get - VM | Get-NetworkAdapter | Select-Object Name. ConvertTo-HTML-head $a - body "Virtual Machines < H2 > < / H2 > ' | Out-file D:\vms.htm

    Thank you

    Hello, AGFlora-

    Of course, you can do this with the standard as cmdlets:

    ## using standard cmdletsGet-VM | Select Name, @{n="NumNICs"; e={(Get-NetworkAdapter -VM $_ | Measure-Object).Count}} | ?{$_.NumNICs -gt 1}
    

    Or, if you want to get the results a little (or a lot) more quickly, you can use the cmdlet Get-view as:

    ## fast-like, using Get-ViewGet-View -ViewType VirtualMachine -Property Name,Config.Hardware.Device | Select Name,@{n="NumNICs"; e={($_.Config.Hardware.Device | ?{$_ -is [VMware.Vim.VirtualEthernetCard]} | Measure-Object).Count}} | ?{$_.NumNICs -gt 1}
    

    Those are both by selecting the names of virtual machines and their number of network cards.  Then you can direct this output to Export-Csv, ConvertTo-HTML, what you like.  What to do for you?

  • Gwetting a list of all virtual machines and used space


    I apologize for my very basic question.

    I need to make a file (better if an Excel file) with a list of all virtual machines in a simple 5.x vSphere infrastructure including 2 VMare ESXi 5.x servers and the disk space used (allocated, used) of each virtual computer.

    The easiest way seems to list the virtual machines from the vSphere client and export the list as a .xls file.

    It seems simple, but when I look at the file I see a lot of missing VMs or a large number of missing values for several virtual machines (just the Runts).

    Is this a problem with my vSphere client?

    I tried to create a PowerCli script using the "Get - VM|" Select-object Name"command, but my limited skills will let me extract the value of the used space.»

    Can someone please provide a sample of PowerCli I can just copy and use?

    Is there another way to get the information I need?

    I just got a new computer with Windows 7.  I accidentally dragged a folder in the "all programs" list in the start menu on the desktop.  I just wanted to create a shortcut, but accidentally moved the folder instead.  How do I restore the folder to the list of "all programs"?

    Hello

    That is not a problem and it is easy to retrieve.  You are going to want to go where the files and folders are stored in your Start menu and the best way to do this is to open your Start menu, go to all programs and on another folder with the right mouse button and choose explore.  This will put you in the location wherever the folders and shortcuts are stored.  From there, just move up a level and move the backrest to the workstation and you should be good.

    For more information, there are 2 folders that make up what you see in the menu start, a common (or public) and a private.  Both get merged to give a smooth.

    The common (public), one is to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start start\program

    and the private sector, one is C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs

    Files above are below hidden folders so you will need to first enable the option to view hidden folders and files, but the right click Explore method is the best way to get there anyway.

    Finally, if you want to create a shortcut to a folder on the start menu, find it and then right click and choose "send to".  Under this menu, you will see an option to create a shortcut on the desktop.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck & enjoy Windows 7
