• Update boot entry automatic using vmware-vim-cmd (or vmware-vimsh)

  Hello

  Is there an example of how update the automatic start-up using vmware-vim-cmd input.

  The problem that I am running is

  1. when I type

  VMware-vim-cmd hostsvc/autostartmanager/update_autostartentry 16 powerOn-1 1-1 systemDefault systemDefault

  When 16 is one of my VMIds, I get the following

  Invalid option '1'

  Use: update_autostartentry VMId StartAction StartDelay StopAction StopDelay WaitForHeartbeat Strafpkt

  I can't understand what the invalid option '1'.

  Here's what I've done so now

  1. research in the communities for examples. There are a few messages, but none seem to provide real-world examples of work (beyond the use of message)

  2. I found this link http://pubs.vmware.com/vi-sdk/visdk250/ReferenceGuide/vim.host.AutoStartManager.AutoPowerInfo.html who talks about what type of entry it is pregnant. I tried double quoting and only citing the parameters of xsd: String, but that did not work either

  3. I tried the particular settings (including the xsd: int) doublequoting, which did not work either

  Anyone successful with this? If so could you please post a real example.

  Here's what I'm trying to accomplish

  1 activate Autostart - I did that using

  / usr/bin/VMware-vim-cmd hostsvc/autostartmanager/enableautostart true

  2. get all VMIds in the system

  I did it with the following command and awk script

  / * Awk script * /.

  BEGIN {}

  FS = ""

  NR 1 >

  }

  {

  If (NR == 1) {}

  #ignore header

  }

  else {}

  1. $1 has VMIds

  Print $1

  }

  }

  / * End awk script * /.

  Then run/bin/awk f /root/autostart.awk

  3. instead of printing on $1, I would like to add the virtual machines to the list using the following

  a. start-up delay = systemdefault

  start-up (b) action = poweron

  c. start order = 1, 2, 3, 4 (do not need help with AWK script), I can post once I have that.

  d. stopaction, stopdelay etc. - leave at the default system (or - 1 as the pubs suggested link)

  I'm sure that there are more effective and these ways to do this, I need to follow this approach for a specific reason.  I was wondering if someone can help me with the syntax correct for vmware-vim-cmd hostsvc/autostartmanager/enable_autostart please?

  Thanks for your help!

  It seems that the problem is with you using -1 as input for StartDelay and StopDelay,-1 is not a valid entry that I tested, and you must specify either systemDefault or a time interval.

  I created 4 VMS dummy on ESXi 4.0 host and did the following and it worked:

  Enable auto-start through vimsh (vim - cmd)

  ~ #  vim-cmd hostsvc/autostartmanager/enable_autostart 1
  Enabled AutoStart
  

  Adjustment of the 1st virtual machine:

  ~ # vim-cmd hostsvc/autostartmanager/update_autostartentry 1264 "PowerOn" "15" "1" "systemDefault" "systemDefault" "systemDefault"
  
  1Updated AutoStart order.
  

  Definition of the 2nd VM:

  ~ # vim-cmd hostsvc/autostartmanager/update_autostartentry 1232 "PowerOn" "15" "2" "systemDefault" "systemDefault" "systemDefault"
  
  2Updated AutoStart order.
  

  Definition of the 3rd VM:

  ~ # vim-cmd hostsvc/autostartmanager/update_autostartentry 1280 "PowerOn" "15" "3" "systemDefault" "systemDefault" "systemDefault"
  
  3Updated AutoStart order.
  

  Definition of the 4th VM:

  ~ # vim-cmd hostsvc/autostartmanager/update_autostartentry 1264 "PowerOn" "15" "4" "systemDefault" "systemDefault" "systemDefault"
  
  4Updated AutoStart order.
  

  You can manually set the automatic start/stop by using the vSphere Client and using the following command to retrieve the config:

  vim-cmd hostsvc/autostartmanager/get_autostartseq
  

  which can then be used as a basis to set the configuration.

• El Capitan usr bin connection running fake bin and fails

  Just upgraded from Yosemite to El Capitan, and I started with a problem of Emacs: he would not launch from the Emacs.app icon, claiming that he could not/bin/false and then fails to start Emacs. I followed this to the fact that emacs.app was trying to run/usr/bin/login. When I run/usr/bin/login of "Terminal", it closes with a return code of failure. If I put "Terminal" to run the default connection (/ usr/bin/login), "Terminal" windows dead with the completed product, so it's really bad. I can spend "Terminal" to run/bin/bash, but it does not solve the Emacs.app problem or similar problems for all the other apps that try to run/usr/bin/login.

  I dug deeper and found that/bin/false moved to the operation. It seems that I need to fix/usr/bin/login to run the operation and not/bin/false, but I do not know how.

  I tried to cheat the system backwards by a stand-in to/bin/false

  sudo ln -s /usr/bin/false /bin/false 

  and I get '' Operation not permitted." I never saw this error for any Unix. I am struck by a kind of bedrock refused to the superuser. I tried

  sudo cp /usr/bin/false /bin/false

  and I get "Word authorized operation."

  I'm stuck looking for "the right answer" or other workaround solutions.

  I don't know what makes this app of Emacs, but it seems you may have an invalid default shell.

• Automator action "CVS Update" could not be loaded because the file ' / usr/bin/cvs "is not found.

  Hello

  I just receive my MBA a few weeks ago to Apple and noticed my Razor mouse worked only with BluTooth but not when it is plugged into a usb port.  Other mouse usb and external drives readers work well.  Razor support told me the plug-and-play subsystem has screwed up, and errors have been associated with Automator.

  I have only a local account and I have not linked to the iCloud account.

  I don't want to reinstall my laptop because I have 300 GB of data on it, as well as some programs that I installed.

  I think that a package is not properly installed or missing, but my OSX knowledge is poor, because I have just started using a Mac!

• [ESXi 4.1] Limit the VIM - CMD vmsvc/getallvms results

  Hello

  I have a lot of virtual machines running in our environment. So when I run the command from the object, I get a lot of useless content.

  What I want is to see the VMID, name and location of data store. How can I do this?

  BTW, I installed RVTools to try to make this easier for myself and see them immediately... but the VMID is not displayed.

  Thank you

  brunofernandez1,

  Thanks for the link. I found the following one line that does this for me:

  Vim - cmd vmsvc/getallvms | SED ' 1 to EI EI /------[. * $/ /' | awk ' $1 ~ / ^ [0-9] + $/ {print $1 "substr($0,8,80)" "}"]

• Vim - cmd vmsvc/snapshot.revert goes wrong instant

  With the help of ESXI 5.0, I have a virtual machine with a single Instant top-level (ROOT) and a few snapshots to branch (CHILD).  When I ssh into host and the snapshot.revert with VMID order number and an ID snapshot of a node CHILD, the command runs without error, but virtual machine is always returned to the first CHILD node. If I run the revert command, but specify 0 as the index, it is up to the ROOT snapshot so the feature shows that she can return to other snapshots, but not other snapshots of the CHILD.

  The hostd.log shows the order received with invalid snapshot ID.  These same steps will work with another host running 5.1 but I think it is specific to this machine virtual and not the ESXi version.

  Get the virtual machine ID:

  ~ # vim - cmd vmsvc/getallvms | grep Wireless_Testbed_2 | AWK '{print $1} '.

  140

  Get the ID VM 140 names and snapshot ID:

  ~ # vim - cmd vmsvc/get.snapshotinfo 140 | grep "name\ | ID ".

  name = "BASE."

  ID = 1,

  name = "2.4.0.12."

  ID = 5,

  name = "2.5.1.07"

  ID = 3,

  name = "2.6.0.08"

  ID = 4,

  name = "2.6.0.05"

  ID = 6,

  To return to the 6 snapshot with the command

  ~ # vim - cmd vmsvc/snapshot.revert 140 6 1

  Data store could not be inaccessible I was runnig commnad inside and managed to the list. I can not restart VM or host in the near future. No idea how to commit snapshots, please?

  Host reboot has solved the problem in the end. Snapshots became visible and I can remove them. I don't know what caused this situation.

  Thanks to opvizor for support and kind help.

• VMware-vim-cmd check vmwaretools available

  Hello!

  I want to make a script (with bash) to stop my VMs.

  with vmware-vim-cmd vmsvc/power.shutdown ID, I can stop my VM.

  But if vmware-Tools are noticed running I want to turn off the coast of the VM hard.

  How can I check if vmware-tools are available and how can disable VM without vmware-tools?

  THX.

  Hansi

  The vim - cmd, you can use the vmsvc/get.guest allows to check if the tools are running:

  # vim - cmd vmsvc/get.guest 28 | grep toolsRunningStatus
  toolsRunningStatus = "guestToolsRunning"
  # vim - cmd vmsvc/get.guest 18 | grep toolsRunningStatus
  toolsRunningStatus = "guestToolsNotRunning".

  You can also include a vim - cmd vmsvc/power.getstate in your script to see if the VM is actually powered-on, since the status of tools will be guestToolsNotRunning on a virtual computer off of course.

  Hard power off mV, use vmsvc/power.off.

• use of vim - cmd

  Hi guys,.

  I try to update a software advanced on an ESXi4.1 update 3 host option, but think that my syntax is incorrect.

  I use:

  Vim - cmd hostsvc/advopt/updated updated Disk.DiskMaxIOSize int 512

  I don't know if my 'int' type is correct?

  The error message I see, it's "a specified parameter is incorrect."

  If I run vim - cmd hostsvc/advopt/settings, I find my Advanced setting and can see that I have not typo etc...

  See you soon,.

  
  Dan

  Try:

  Vim - cmd hostsvc/advopt/update Disk.DiskMaxIOSize long 512

  Possible values are string, int, long, and bool

• Allow non-root Admin user run the vim - cmd commands

  Hi all

  I created a new user who belongs to the root group and appears in the roles of Admin when I run vim - cmd vimsvc/auth/role_permissions admin.

  However when I ssh to the server as the new user and trying to run vim - cmd, the following error is generated:

  The version check error: could not get the version vmkernel: operation not permitted (running as non-root?)
  

  Anyone knows how I can allow a user nonroot administrator run the commands in vim - cmd via ssh?

  TIA,

  
  Kind regards

  It is the nature of ESXi - kb.vmware.com/kb/2005299.  You can use managed to move to the root connection. 

  You can configure it with ESX sudo, but is not available with ESXi (at least not yet - http://communities.vmware.com/thread/344466).
