VI connections in several tabs in PowerShellISE possible?

I like to keep my vCenters multiple connections in different console windows. I started to rename the WindowTitle console to the challenge of keeping straight which console is connected to the server. This works, but the consoles still lacks the functionality and flexibility of the ISE (copy/paste, syntax highlighting, debugging commands, variables accessible script in the console, etc.). So I started to use the tabs within the ISE - each tab another server of VI - and I like much easier and more efficient, it's... except. Whenever I go to a new tab/server, I have to sign in again. Because of the way that ISE manages scope global variables vs consoles, whenever I have Connect-VIServer, the other tabs/servers lose their minds and will error with:

You have changed the world: DefaultVIServer and global: DefaultVIServers system variables. This is not allowed. Please reset them to $null and reconnect the server vSphere.

I think it has something to do with the difference in scope between individual PS consoles vs EHT - if I'm not exactly positive what/why. Global variables don't seem to be truly accessible through tabs, yet Connect-VIServer does not seem to break something with regard to global variables: DefaultVIServer (s).

So it is even possible to have different connections in different tabs of ISE or PowerCLI use variables DefaultVIServers made impossible?

Some things I've tried:

Definition of PowerCLI for multiple server mode

-Set-PowerCLIConfiguration - multiple DefaultVIServerMode - worn AllUsers

Definition of ISE run in multi-threaded Apartment mode

-PowerShell_ISE.exe - mta [launch]

Doesn't seem to work. Any help would be appreciated.

Just an update for this. I opened a case with VMware, which was fast enough in confirming that it is a problem (if "bug" may be a misnomer). It is due to the fact that PowerCLI (and more precisely the connection manager) are intentionally designed to assume a single "AppDomain" by PowerCLI instance. This works fine most of the time, as each individual Powershell console is its own AppDomain. However, ISE uses a single AppDomain for any application, even if it creates instances of different performance for each PowerShell tab. For this reason, there are collisions between the Powershell tabs in ISE for VIServer connections.

They recommend that if you want to use ISE, then do so, just for the script development. Then use multiple instances of ISE to different vCenters or really test/run individual Powershell scripts with the consoles.

VMware said they will mark this as a problem, even if a low priority (thus not requiring a fix or update older versions of PowerCLI) and will seek to rework this field to resolve the issue in a future release.

Thank you for helping me to confirm this matter LucD .

  • I want to open several tabs for the same Web site. 9.0 will allow me to do this?

    I keep getting pop up windows to update to Firefox 9.0 because its faster etc. I look round and he tells me he asks me if I already have one open. I WANT THE SAME SITE OPENED IN SEVERAL TABS according to what I'm working on. Is it still possible with the updated version. IF this isn't the case, I don't want it, but none of the FAQ questions even thought my question.

    When you enter a site in the URL/address bar and see the section "Switch to tab" in the drop-down menu, you can

    • use ALT + ENTER to open the new tab (duplicate) anyway
    • Use CTRL (CMD on OSX) + left click on the original tab and drag until you see an arrow under the point of rupture between the two tabs upward, then release the left button, then release the CTRL/CMD key to obtain a duplicate of the tab with all of its history (front/rear)
    • Press the SHIFT key while an entry in the drop-down list is highlighted to disable 'Switch to the tab' and see the URL.
    • Use the right arrow to select an element marked as switch to tab in the menu drop-down and copy the URL in the address bar.
    • Open the URL in the current tab by using shift + enter on the highlighted entry.
    • ALT + Enter open the URL highlighted in a new tab.
    • Shift + enter opens the URL highlighted in the current tab.
    • Cursor right copies the URL highlighted in the address bar where you want to change it.

    You can install this add-on to completely disable "switch to tab": https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/switch-to-tab-no-more/

    Then far,.../firefox.exe-nouveau-fenetre followed by the two URL in quotes will open two new windows.

  • Whenever I try to open a new tab in Safari, it closes in on my previous page. How should I do so that I can have several tabs open?

    Whenever I try to open a new tab in Safari, it closes in on my previous page. How should I do so that I can have several tabs open?

    What version of OS/Safari do you use?

    Try a reboot.

    Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.

    Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in system preferences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

    Isolate a problem by using a different user account

    If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account.  Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

  • Several tabs using frames with scroll

    I am creating the effect of tabs in my DPS document with two or more tabs sliding in from the right side of the screen. I used the floating framework that works for one tab. When I place several tabs only tab at the top of the stacking order can be selected. I saw in a publication of DPS so I know its possible but I can't understand what I'm doing wrong.

  • Is there a way / shortcut so that you can open more than one message into several tabs?

  • Unable to convince Firefox close several tabs without asking confirmation

    Using Linux Mint 13 Maya with Firefox 35.0.1. If I try to close firefox after having several tabs open, I get the message "do you want Firefox to save your tabs for the next time it starts? Check "do not ask next time" has no effect. Next time, he will do the same boring. Went to preferences, tabs and found the box checked to "warn me when closing multiple tabs". Not checked the box, it remains unchecked, but I always get the same annoying message whenever I try to close several tabs. I really don't understand why this might be a desirable feature. I hate a computer program trying to do my thinking for me! Yes hell I want to close all tabs, I clicked on the 'X', I don't? I despise also semi-automatic and almost all the other annoying features trying to do my thinking for me - especially those that I can't turn it OFF. I want my PC to do exactly what I said, LOL!
