vCLI and vCenter shutdown options

I use vCLI 4.0 u1, trying to find the command used to turn off all ESX hosts that vCenter handles gracefully. (if that is even possible)

I can see where we can use vmware-cmd stop closing comments and then shut down the virtual machine.  However I do not see to shutdown gracefully power management functions the ESX hosts themselves?

If I'm not 'all the ESX host managed by this vCenter' at least can we this ESX host?

Yes this is possible, you'll want to watch using hostops.pl , which are extra vSphere SDK for Perl utilities: http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/viperltoolkit/viperl40/doc/vsperl_util_index.html

  • vCenter Essentials 4 and vCenter Converter Plugin?

    We bought vSphere 4 Essentials Bundle with vCenter 4 Essentials for a client, have installed ESX, a Windows 2008 Server and vCenter on this server.  I'm not ready to test migrating from physical to virtual, but can't find the vCenter Converter plugin in the vSphere client.  I was on the phone with VMWare for 30 minutes this afternoon and they could not help me?

    So either vCenter Converter is not allowed with all (which would be a disappointment) OR I'm missing something.

    Does anyone have any ideas or advice?

    Thanks in advance,

    Bill

    This is a separate option. When you "autorun" installation of vCenter DVD, there is a selection for vCenter Converter.

  • languages in vSphere and vCenter

    Hello people,

    I installed the vCenter and vSphere Client so I had to find out there is no prompt for languages. I am of the Germany, and when I finished to install vShpere on German Windows 2003 Server OS everything was in German (terrible). How these products recognize install in German? Local version of the OS, locale (those which exactly)?

    However, now I've read in the description for und vSphere ESX 4.0 there is a command line option to change this:

    vpxClient -locale en_US

    First of all, how to run this command, because I have no experience with CLI?

    Secondly, it sets the language settings for each client that will connect in the future and vCenter itself?

    Thirdly, this fix, the language setting in the Client vSphere for each text, because I also saw phenomena, that most of the text is in English, but the description of the task and vSphere lLogonscreen is in German.

    Hello.

    First of all, how to run this command, because I have no experience with CLI?

    In Windows, you can start-> run the following command:

    vpxClient.exe - local-en - U .S.

    VpxClient.exe running in Start menu-> Run would be the equivalent of the double click on the shortcut on the desktop or the Start Menu.  You can also create a shortcut with these included switches, or changing the text already there.

    Secondly, it sets the language settings for each client that will connect in the future and vCenter itself?

    Each customer must launch the application with the above switches.

    Thirdly, this fix, the language setting in the Client vSphere for each text, because I also saw phenomena, that most of the text is in English, but the description of the task and vSphere lLogonscreen is in German.

    It probably won't fix everything.  Plugins and other items may present as expected.

    Good luck!

    Please notify.

    The two suggested solutions were things that I had already tried without success.

    Finally, what works after much trial and error:
    1 back up all my favorites.
    2 uninstall Firefox.
    3 reinstall Firefox but important! not begin immediately after installation!
    4. run firefox.exe Pei from the command window.
    5. in the Profile Manager, delete all the existing profiles and create a new.
    6. start Firefox, import bookmarks and set the options.

  • Analyze both sides (front and back) missing option

    I have an e-all-in-one printer HP Officejet Pro 8600 - N911a (CM749A).

    On Windows 7, the HP scanning software has an option to scan both sides (duplex), when you use the automatic document feeder.

    But I am a Mac user and in the scanner HP for Mac software, this option is missing. Why?

    It is really useful. I wish I had this option on Mac. Or is it there? Thank you.

    Hello

    Duplex (two sided) is compatible with OS X using the scanner HP for OSX software

    If you haven't done so already, download the full driver HP package for the HP Officjet 8600-hp.com

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=MP-107214-1&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en&OS=219&product=4323648&sw_lang=

    When you install, in the first few install screens and the Installation Options screen, be sure to select "Software recommended by HP" - then the HP scanning software will settle.

    (Note - Minimum install is the default, and this only installs the utility driver printing and files to support ICA scanning Preview/ImageCapture, that do not support the two faces of scanning).

    After installing sw, go to Applications / Hewlett Packard folder and launch application from HP.
