The script to stop the guest OS

Hello:

I have three machine installed on a server VMware ESX 4.0 vmware: redhat5, windows2003, vSphere Management Assistant (vMA).

When I run the script to stop redhat5, windows2003 can be stopped gracefully, but the vSphere Management Assistant (vMA) cannot be stop

I think that virtual machines with spaces in names, so do not successfully stopped.

For example the default name of the unit of VMware vMA

vmfs/volumes / * / vSphere Management Assistant (vMA) / vSphere Management Assistant (vMA) .vmx

Produces the following output from the script:

vim.fault.NotFound: no virtual machine has name: vmfs/volumes / * / vSphere

vim.fault.NotFound: no virtual machine has name: management

vim.fault.NotFound: no virtual machine has name: Assistant

vim.fault.NotFound: no virtual machine has a name: (vM/vSphere

vim.fault.NotFound: no virtual machine has name: management

vim.fault.NotFound: no virtual machine has name: Assistant

vim.fault.NotFound: no virtual machine has a name: (vM.vmx

The script below:

# The list of VMS
"VMLIST ='/ usr/bin/vmware-cmd - l"
for a virtual machine in $VMLIST
do
/ usr/bin/VMware-cmd '$VM' stop trysoft
sleep 2
fact

Can someone help to solve my problem?

Thank you very much

Yes, correct. u can do than this by putting "echo $VM" inside the foreach loop. and a more I think, it will be like cmd 7:

VMware-cmd "/ vmfs/volumes/4 c * / vSphere stop trysoft".

VMware-cmd 'Management' stop trysoft

VMware-cmd "Assistant" stop trysoft

VMware-cmd "(vMA) / vSphere" stop trysoft

VMware-cmd 'Management' stop trysoft

VMware-cmd "Assistant" stop trysoft

VMware-cmd "(vMA) .vmx" stop trysoft

Thank you

  • How do you keep the guests on their hosts (no migration) by making the food stops.

    I apologize in advance for the length of this post.

    In general do not much poster, but a lot of reading.  First of all, let me tell you that I'm not a GURU PowerCLI, never written one in my life, but there is always a first time.

    Background:

    Under VMWare 4.1, that us did not run with HA, for whatever the reason why I don't know.  We had (our UPS manufacturer) Liebert software called MultiLink that when there was a power outage after 15 minutes would run a .bat file on the server vCenter for windows that would log on to the vmware host and run a file .sh that accumulate all the machines on the host and start making judgments on them.  Once completed the host itself would make a stop.

    Currently:

    Improved 5.5 VMWare vCenter, have HA and followed now host active in the configuration. We find that we can follow is no longer the practice that we have done less than 4.1.

    I got a new version 4.2.4 and that it contains, there is provision in interface with VMWare through the PowerCLI and it stops all guests on the host computer. The host then stops.

    I suspect STRONGLY that when the command is issued to stop the host itself, HA or monitoring kick and migrates customers and/or models out of the machine, before the machine shutsdown.  In the first tests, I had a host with 5 models, 1 windows machine and a Virtual Appliance on it.  Everything was arrested, as was that it was supposed to, but the host was brought back to the top he had nothing on it.  Models and machines had been moved (spread) for the two other machines.

    This has been confirmed in another test on 01/05/2015 through vCenter client connection, the guests have been stop, the by refreshing the screen you could see the machines leave the test machine, then the server itself, stop.  In a subsequent test, I commented on the "Shutdown the ESX hosts" part and the machine down and remained where they were.  So I'm guessing that it has something to do with HA, surveillance or other thing that needs to be defined differently for him to stop guests from the host, stop the host, BUT not to migrate comments to others running machines.  Do I need to enter the maintenance or standby mode before making the shutdown command?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You can avoid the confirmation prompt by adding the -confirm: $false pass.

    What follows will check all clusters and those where the priority of restarting is not disabled, is set to disabled.

    Get-Cluster |

    where {'ClusterRestartPriority', 'High', 'Medium', 'Low' - contains $_.} HARestartPriority} |

    HARestartPriority-set off Cluster - confirm: $false

    In this way, HA will continue to function (for ESXi other nodes in the cluster), but virtual machines will remain on the crux of ESXi, you stop.

    How should be written the script for the use of the maximum memory of the guest operating system ever?

    Please teach the name of the object and the type and order, etc.

    You should be able to do it with the cmdlet Get-Stat .

    Something like that

    Get-Stat -Entity (Get-VM $vmName) -Stat mem.usage.maximum -Start (Get-Date).AddDays(-7) | Measure-Object -Property value -Maximum | Select Maximum
    

    This will return the maximum percentage in the last 7 days for the guests, whose name is stored in the variable $vmName.

  • script to stop the virtual machine

    I am writing a script to stop all the virtual machine as follows:

  • How can I disable the guest user to close the PC while the Admin is connected?

    I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate. I found out how to disable the guest user closing at all via the local security policy, but then they can't stop even if the Admin account is offline.

    To clarify a bit, say I want to give my PC to someone, I usually click on change user and connect using the guest account. In this way, they can't access my account because it asks for a password. I want that in such a case, they should not be able to stop the PC as my admin account is always logged.

    However, if someone booted the PC themselves and use the guest account, then they should be able to close too, as my Admin account has not been connected.

    I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate. I discovered how to disable the guest user closing all through local security policy.

    It is the correct method. It is as robust as it is unconditional.

    If you want to have your cake and eat it the guest account must use a powerful "agent" to perform the functions of judgment. A scheduled task would be such an agent. It might work as follows:

    1. Create a scheduled task that runs Script1 to perform these tasks:
      -Check if the C:\Shutdown\Shutdown.txt file exists.
      -If not, the output of the script.
      -If this is the case, delete Shutdown.txt.
      -Check if there is an administrator session. If so, the output of the script.
      S ' there is no live administrator session, shut down the computer by using shutdown.exe.
      The task must run under an administrator account once every 3 minutes.
    2. Create a shortcut on the desktop for the Guest user calling Script2 for these tasks:
      -Check if there is an administrator session.
      -If this is the case, create a pop-up to inform the user that the machine cannot be stopped.
      -If it is not, create the C:\Shutdown\Shutdown.txt file. The scheduled task will 'see' this file and will stop the machine.

    Hello

    Here is a very good explanation by Malkeleah and others in the linked Thread that explains that it is virtually impossible to stop a person access to your computer, if they really want.

    "(N'importe quel ordinateur exécutant un système d'exploitation est accessible par une personne avec 1) access physical;" (2) time; (3) jurisdiction; (4) tools. There are a few things you can do to make it a little more difficult but:

    1. define a password in the BIOS that must be entered before starting the operating system. Also to set the supervisor password in the BIOS so the BIOS configuration cannot be entered without it.

    2. starting at the BIOS, change the order of boot to hard drive first.

    3. set strong passwords on all accounts, including the built-in XP administrator account (it is disabled by default in Vista).

    4. If you leave your own account connected, use Windows key + L to lock the computer (or set the screen/power economy saver) when you step away from the computer and require a password to use.

    5. do the other accounts of users limited in XP Home, regular user accounts in XP Pro. All users must be on a Standard account in Vista with an administrator account used only for purposes of elevation.

    Please understand that these are technical answers to what is essentially a technical problem and there are ways around these precautions. It is a problem of family / interpersonal which cannot be solved by technical means.

    The host restarting does not solve the problem, but I don't want to restart every time when I take the guest.

    I tried the Tech Preview version and got the same result

    wwwjfy,

    After encountering this problem, he persisted even after uninstalling (fully) and reinstalling. I could not even make new virtual machines without the error. After almost giving up, I decided to try the Technical Preview of 2015. After that, this issue seems to be fixed.

  • Get the guest OS unusable slow after a few hours / after restoring a snapshot

    Running an early 2009 Mac Pro with 10 GB of RAM, 2.66 Quad-Core Intel Xeon CPU, OS X 10.10.2. 7.1.1 the merger.

    I have a question where a guest OS I am running under Fusion will get inevitably unusably slow after that it worked for a while. Usually what happens is when I start the system, everything works well, and then after an hour or two, it will start running very slowly. Very basic operations like moving a window all about take a few seconds to complete, and I can see the screen slowly updated the window moves. Another example is by clicking on a menu in the menu bar might take several seconds for the menu even start drawing, and then a few seconds more for what it ends and during this time where the BONE is otherwise unresponsive. Essentially, the interaction of basic with the operating system is very difficult. If I stop the operating system and then start it back up again, it will resume performing normally for another hour or two.

    If I record a snapshot of a system and restore later, usually (but not always) will trigger to poor performance and I have to completely farm the guest operating system and start again it upward to fix.

    This happens regardless of which is the guest operating system. I did experience in OS X 10.6 - 10.9, Windows XP and Windows 7 32 - bit and 64 - bit.

    So far, I tried affecting versions material of these VMs to 10, as was recommended in other threads I've found to fix this exact problem. However, it is not fix things for me.

    Does anyone have an idea, what the problem? I'm quite like merger so far, more Parallels, but with this question, it is very difficult for me to get work done. I hope it can be resolved.

    Thanks in advance!

    I had the same problem since V7 came out.   At one point, from 1 hour to 7 days, all my virtual machines would slow to a crawl.   The only solution was to close all, vmware close and restart.   I spent months to fine-tune different settings.

    I did a few manual tweaks after searching on the net and see some common parameters which have been recommended.   After 4 to 6 weeks, my problem has not reappeared.   I don't know which of these parameters has solved my problem, but you can give them a try.   I don't have an SSD if you may or may not want to use the virtualSSD parameter according to your configuration.

    The settings that I have added are:

    mainMem.backing = 'swap '.

    scsi0:0.virtualSSD = 1

    MemTrimRate = '0 '.

    sched.mem.pshare.Enable = "FALSE".

    MemAllowAutoScaleDown = "FALSE".

    As usual, save your vm and use at your own risk.  They have worked very well for me so far, but each installation is different.

  • Cannot run the program in the guest operating system

    Hello

    I'm trying to run a program file (an .exe) in a virtual machine via vCO using executeCommandInGuest.

    The thing is that the .exe file starts a user interface to display the status (do not ask for entry) when it runs locally. When I call the script of vCO, I get the following error:

    Error while executing command (can not run the command: InternalError: a general error occurred: a program could not run on the guest operating system (name of the dynamic Script Module: executeCommandInGuest #40) (name of the dynamic Script Module: executeCommandInGuest #46))


    If I try to call a .bat file in the VM that starts the program of the WF works but the .exe file is never started in the virtual machine.

    If I specify to run another .exe for example ping.exe only complete control of WF and if I specify a .bat file that call ping.exe he also successfully complete.

    There is no silent mode for the .exe I need performed.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Magnus

    The problem was caused by the user access control. Put forever does not resolve the problem, disable it through the user interface, restart the virtual machine, and then continue with my script.

  • Performance problem with the guest operating system

    Hello gurus - I have one of the most unusual questions, I ran into a few time.   Here it is:

    I have a guest w2008R2 OS - installed in a 5.1 version of VM 7 vSpherer - which has an Emulex LPe 12002-E 8 GB dual HBA port is assigned to the as 2 PCI (1 device per port) via DirectPath devices

    The guest operating system has an application that performs backup tests.   WWPN of the HBA is zoned in the fabric and declared in the interface of Compellent Storage Center and everything is good here. the application creates a replay of a volume, mount it as a drive, read all the blocks, then dismantles and moves then repeat the process with what ever additional volumes should be safeguarded.   It is so cool I have do this with a VM right and not a physical host?  (would be cool if I had work NPIV but that's another story, not with technology HBA vendor support...)

    So, what's the problem?   Well, the bed the mounted disk backup will work extremely slow as slow as 5MB\sec flow, then during any other activity takes place on the system the flow jumps up to 150MB\sec all of a sudden and will continue to run fast for a long time and finish jobs on time with each work taking a little more than an hour.  But when the slow going the same work (all jobs are the same, they are simply by reading all the blocks of a bunch of 200 GB volumes and wrote a set of NULL value, do not forget this is just test) takes up to 10 hours to complete.

    I think that what is the culprit?   POWER MANAGEMENT.

    I have just about each performance counter and the journal of events known to man and I don't see anything abnormal on the table, ESXi virtual machine, nothing.  But what I see in the newspapers is any kind of activity that could happen in a transparent manner to save energy.

    FACTS on this case:

    -Reservation of memory is defined (it must be for directpath otherwise, you can't power on the virtual machine)

    -Booking CPU - has not been defined before an hour ago, I gave her just a small reserve for this rule, so I do not know if this will help alleviate the slow flow, or have an effect on what I think is a question of power (unit linked) management

    -windows power management is set to high performance never-ever - but not until an hour there doesn't I changed advanced settings for USB Disabled------turned off.  PCI peripheral energy saving setting was already off.  Which is in contradiction with my theory.  But maybe, just maybe, something is broken somewhere, or could be a bug... blah blah blah

    -the HBA, Emulex, as it appears in Device Manager in the guest OS doesn't have a power management tab to disable the feature, I don't see that the adapter VMXNET3 had this tab, and I turn off the power save setting to be conservative, do not think that it was the culprit, but as there is no real data running through the NIC.  The data is simply to be read from the disk mounted, not copied on any wire Ethernet.  never the less, in the Emulex properties is a Details tab and a selection of power data, and performance data indicate you what power mode, the device is, as well as feeding supported systems.  D0: full power, but D3, which shows as supported by the device, is an energy saving mode.   I could not yet attend the setting at the time of slow activity, my good intention as soon as possible. He is currently shooting in D0, full power.

    This is so what I have to offer on this, I hope that its just...   If I'm missing something, or if others have experienced this massive loss of unknown flow without reason and have resolutions, please share.

    If there is a way for me to disable power on the Emulex HBA management inform you please, I don't mind if I stop to enter the firmware, if that was even possible.  But if possible I would disable it immediately before any new tests are executed.

    The root cause of this issue has never been identified by VMware support which for me is a question of ugly.  Reservation of CPU for the VM using directpath IO with HBA installed in it corrected the problem.  I'd be leary with direct path IO.

  • Snapshot of the guest

    Using VMware 8 is there a way I can create a snapshot within the guest OS?  Scripted preferably.

    Hello and welcome to the communities.

    Discover the VIX API 1.11 and the document "Using vmrun to control Virtual Machines" referenced here. The vmrun command can issue commands of snapshot in the prompt.

    Good luck!

  • VMware tools on the guest OS FreeBSD 7.1

    Hello, everyone,

    I am running a VMware player 4.0 on my Windows 7 Professional. My guest OS is a FreeBSD 7.1 to measure.

    The image of comments came with installed Xorg, but I had to run the configure script before you can properly run. Then, I compiled and installed Gnome as my office.

    The problem is, I can not install the VMware tools. Usually there is an option "Install VMware Tools", if you click on the button 'Virtual Machine' on top of the VMware window. You can select and it will put the VMware Tools in your virtual CD. You can mount and install then from there. But now it shows 'VMware Tools unavailable' for me.

    There is a "VMware Tools" folder in my root directory. I don't know if it came with the image of comments or put there my VMware player (seems unlikely...). I ran the install script in this folder. He told me that "driver not found Xorg", but the installation go all the way to the end and you say Setup is complete.

    I love the conveniece VMware Tools give you, copy between the host and the guest, swing your mouse in and out of the window, VMware etc. So please someone tell me what are tools of WMware really not available for my custom FreeBSD7.1? Thank you!

    The line in your vmx "guestOS ="xxx"" file

    The iso image is the installation of VMware Tools for FreeBSD customers support.  He (and many others, for other types of families of guest operating system) should be in your record player.  If not, then download them... Player menu--> File--> Preferences of the player.  Click on 'download all components '.
