VM and their data store
I am trying to find a way to write a script that translates into 2 columns, the name and the data store. The Name column contains the name of the virtual machine and the data store is the normal name of data store. I am new to PowerCLI and just get frustrated trying to figure this on my own. Help, please.
Try it like this
{foreach ($vm in Get - VM)
Get-Datastore - vm $vm | Select @{N = "VM"; E = {$vm. Name}}, name
}

The HARD drive that was my OS (Windows XP Pro SP3) failed and lost quite a few areas which are essential for the operating system running. Other data is still readable. A got another HARD drive and installed Windows XP SP2, Firefox and other programs. I was able to retrieve the bookmarks, security certificates, and other profile information using the information found in bandages.
None of them addressed how do to recover the modules or their data. Specifically, there are several large, elegant scripts that took months to develop and customize.
Articles related to migration and other do not work for me because they require the old copy of FF is functional, that is not because the OS on this HARD drive is damaged. Is it possible to recover these data, similar (or not) about how I could get the other profile info?
Have you copied the entire folder C:\Documents and Settings\username \Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\ on the old drive?
If this is not the case, can you?
If so, make a copy and save this folder just in case.If so, you could replace this folder on the new facility by \Profiles\ [with your profiles inside] folder and the profiles.ini file [delete all other files / folders that may also be in the folder "Firefox"] -and then replace with the same folder named from the old failed drive. Note that you will lose what you already have with the new installation / profile!
Your profile folder contains all your personal data and customizations, including looking for plugins, themes, extensions and their data / customizations - but no plugins.
But if the user logon name is different on the new facility that the former, any extension that uses an absolute path to the file in its prefs will be problems. Easily rectified, by changing the path to the file in the file prefs, js - keep the brake line formatting intact. The extensions created after the era of Firefox 2.0 or 3.0, due to changes in the 'rules' for creating extensions usually are not a problem, but some real old extensions that need only "minor" since that time can still use absolute paths - even though I have not seen myself since Firefox Firefox 3.6 or 4.0.View instead of 'Modules' I mentioned the 4 types of 'Modules' separately - Plugins are seen as 'Add-ons', but they are not installed in the profile [except those mislabelled as a "plugin", when they are installed via an XPI file], but rather in the operating system where Firefox 'find' through the registry.
Note: Migration articles can tell you do not re - use the prefs.js file, due to an issue that I feel is easily fixed with a little inspection and editing. I think you can manage that my perception is that you have a small shovel in your tool box, if you encounter a problem you are able to do a little digging and fixing problems with the paths to files - once you have been warned.
Overall, if you go Firefox 35 35 or even Firefox 34 to 35, I don't think you will run in all the problems that you can not handle [that I cross my fingers and "hope" that I'm not on what it is obvious].
With regard to the recovery of the 'data' for individual extensions - there are many ways that extension developers used to store their data and pref. The original way should save in prefs.js or their own file RDF in the profile folder. While Firefox has been developed more, developers started using their own files in the profile folder. And because Mozilla has started using sqlite database files in Firefox 3.0, Mozilla extended their own use of sqlite, as have extension developers.
Elegant uses the file stylish.sqlite to store 'styles', but something in the back of my mine tells me that 'the index' maybe not in this file with the data. But then again, I can be confusing myself a question I had with GreaseMonkey awhile back where I copied the gm_scripts folder in a new profile and with already installed GreaseMonkey but with no script. These GM scripts worked, but I could not see them or modify them - they do not appear in the user GM extension interface window in Firefox. -
install esxi 4.1 and the data store on the same server
Hello
I want to install esxi 4.1 and the data store on the same server.
My problem is that I can't make partitions to really separate them and I would reinstall esxi without wiping the data store.
Y at - it another way to put a record out of the raid only to install esxi.
I also do not install on a USB key.
Thank you

Thank you
AZEL,
Can you give us more details about your current environment? What is the size and the data store space used? Do you have any storage of additional network attached to the host (for backup purposes)?
My assumptions of your post do you have 1 stand-alone host with ESXi 4.1 aready installed and you also have a local data store on the same host, but you want to re - install ESXi 4.1 while keeping the contents fo the data store. Is this correct?

List virtual machines and their data warehouses
I took a dagger to the list of all virtual machines in my VC with data warehouses where their VMDK:
$report = @)
$allvms = Get-VM
{foreach ($vm to $allvms)
$row = "" | Select VMNAME, DATASTORE
$row. VMNAME = $vm.name
{color: #ff0000} $row. DATA store = (Get - VM | get-data store)
$report += $row
}
$report | Export-Csv "C:\vm_ds.csv" -NoTypeInformation
No luck. I know that the problem is with the cndlet of get-data store, the file indicates the VMNAME column filled with virtual machines, as expected, but the column of report DATA store System.Object [].
Any help would be appreciated.
You are already in a loop through all the guests (the loop foreach in line 3), there is no need to get all customers with the cmdlet Get - VM (again) in the 6th line.
You can just pass (i $vm) invites him to the cmdlet Get-data store on line
System.Object [] entry in the CSV file is caused by the fact that the Export-CSV cmdlet does not know how to handle objects or arrays of objects.
One solution is to loop through all the data store names that are returned.
And keep the data store name in the property of the DATA store.
The result is that there will be several rows in the CSV file to people with more than 1 data store.
$report = @() $allvms = Get-VM foreach ($vm in $allvms) { $dstores = $vm | Get-Datastore foreach($ds in $dstores){ $row = "" | select VMNAME, DATASTORE $row.VMNAME = $vm.name $row.DATASTORE = $ds.Name $report += $row } } $report | Export-Csv "C:\vm_ds.csv" -NoTypeInformation

No network traffic VM being withdrawn and any data store Info
I am running a trial of Foglight Enterprise visualization and upward and running things and an agent installed to my VMWare vCenter server infrustructure. He shoots a lot of info, but none of the basic data store info is pulled (not the stuff that requires the Foglight for integration of storage) and none of the information network is taken for the individual virtual machine. Guests and parents have netowrk showing traffic, but nothing on the side of the virtual machine. The environment is configured with dvswitches for data, iscsi, vmotion, etc.. Any idea of what might happen, or I can look at?
I see some errors in the agent log if I pull it down on data warehouses... Here's a sample:
ERROR [Quartz [0] - 6] com.quest.agent.esx.task.HardwareTask - DatastoreInfo is missing for Datastore:datastore - 162

Hey Jake,
I don't know what could cause this problem, it's a bit you added the role of travel data store for the Foglight service account in vCenter. Could you please create a Service request with support?
https://support.software.Dell.com/Could you also attach a support package for FglAM to the case? Please put the number of file here, or send it to me via private message.
Thank you.
Gaston.

Source and target data store mapping query
I have to get the source and mapping target in ODI interface.
Which table will I hit to get mapping information.
E.g.
Interface: INT_SAMPLE
Data store: Source_DataStore with columns (cola, colb, teachers) Target_DataStore with columns (cola, colb, cold)
Well mapping cover the QuickEdit tab and expand the field of mapping mapping is so
Source_DataStore.Cola = Target_DataStore.Cola
Source_DataStore.colB = Target_DataStore.colB
Now, I want to get mapping information above as well as the name of the interface and the rest of the column that are not mapped using SQL (is it possible to trick ODI for mapping).
Are you looking for an application to run on the repository?
If so, it can help:
select I.POP_NAME INTERFACE_NAME, ds.ds_name DATA_SET , s.lschema_name SOURCE_SCHEMA, NVL(S.TABLE_NAME, S.SRC_TAB_ALIAS) SOURCE_TABLE , mt.lschema_name TARGET_SCHEMA, I.TABLE_NAME TARGET_TABLE, c.col_name TARGET_COLUMN, t.FULL_TEXT MAPPING_CRITERIA from SNP_POP i, SNP_DATA_SET ds, SNP_SOURCE_TAB s, SNP_TXT_HEADER t, SNP_POP_MAPPING m, SNP_POP_COL c, SNP_TABLE trg, snp_model mt where I.I_POP = DS.I_POP (+) and DS.I_DATA_SET = S.I_DATA_SET (+) and T.I_TXT (+) = M.I_TXT_MAP and M.I_POP_COL (+) = C.I_POP_COL and M.I_DATA_SET = DS.I_DATA_SET (+) and C.I_POP (+) = I.I_POP and I.i_table = trg.i_table (+) and trg.i_mod = mt.i_mod (+);
Just add a filter on UPPER (I.POP_NAME) = UPPER ('
'). Kind regards

Script in time of latency list vm e/s and the data store the virtual machine is on
Hello. We have a vsphere 5.0 environment and we live a latency of IO heavy. I'm looking for powercli script will get the latency of i/o for each virtual machine and get the data store name, to what it is now. We will access our storage on optical fiber. I'm trying to get a good overview of the latency of IO in a nice view in a csv file. I found what could be a good basis to https://communities.vmware.com/thread/304827?start=0 & tstart = 0 , but I'm not sure how to get the name of the data store in the table and I think that it is written to the nfs in any case storage. Thanks in advance for any info\advice!
Try the next version, it includes the average latency time read/write for the virtual machine and PAHO are / s average for the virtual machine.
Since the CSV has a row for each data store, the values for the virtual machine are repeated.
I also added the host name
$vmName = "VM*" $stat = "datastore.totalReadLatency.average","datastore.totalWriteLatency.average", "datastore.numberReadAveraged.average","datastore.numberWriteAveraged.average"$entity = Get-VM -Name $vmName$start = (Get-Date).AddHours(-1) $dsTab = @{}Get-Datastore | Where {$_.Type -eq "VMFS"} | %{ $key = $_.ExtensionData.Info.Vmfs.Uuid if(!$dsTab.ContainsKey($key)){ $dsTab.Add($key,$_.Name) } else{ "Datastore $($_.Name) with UUID $key already in hash table" }} Get-Stat -Entity $entity -Stat $stat -Start $start |Group-Object -Property {$_.Entity.Name} | %{ $vmName = $_.Values[0] $VMReadLatency = $_.Group | where {$_.MetricId -eq "datastore.totalReadLatency.average"} | Measure-Object -Property Value -Average | Select -ExpandProperty Average $VMWriteLatency = $_.Group | where {$_.MetricId -eq "datastore.totalWriteLatency.average"} | Measure-Object -Property Value -Average | Select -ExpandProperty Average $VMReadIOPSAverage = $_.Group | where {$_.MetricId -eq "datastore.numberReadAveraged.average"} | Measure-Object -Property Value -Average | Select -ExpandProperty Average $VMWriteIOPSAverage = $_.Group | where {$_.MetricId -eq "datastore.numberWriteAveraged.average"} | Measure-Object -Property Value -Average | Select -ExpandProperty Average $_.Group | Group-Object -Property Instance | %{ New-Object PSObject -Property @{ VM = $vmName Host = $_.Group[0].Entity.Host.Name Datastore = $dsTab[$($_.Values[0])] Start = $start DSReadLatencyAvg = [math]::Round(($_.Group | where {$_.MetricId -eq "datastore.totalReadLatency.average"} | Measure-Object -Property Value -Average | Select -ExpandProperty Average),2) DSWriteLatencyAvg = [math]::Round(($_.Group | where {$_.MetricId -eq "datastore.totalWriteLatency.average"} | Measure-Object -Property Value -Average | Select -ExpandProperty Average),2) VMReadLatencyAvg = [math]::Round($VMReadLatency,2) VMWriteLatencyAvg = [math]::Round($VMWriteLatency,2) VMReadIOPSAvg = [math]::Round($VMReadIOPSAverage,2) VMWriteIOPSAvg = [math]::Round($VMWriteIOPSAverage,2) } }} | Export-Csv c:\report.csv -NoTypeInformation -UseCulture

How to download the file on the Esxi Server using c# and SCP data store
Hi I want to connect to 6.0 Esxi hypervisor and download a file.
I write code to connect with esxi:
using (var scp = new ScpClient("10.8.58.26", 22, "root", "MyPasword"))
{
scp.Connect();
}
But I'm getting exception "no suitable authentication method proven to complete authentication.". SSH on the hypervisor is now and manually I can connect using PuTTY or winscp.
I tried with linux and it works. Is it possible to perform this action? How should I authenticate properly to esxi?
Thanks for the replays, but I understand it on my own. I use winscp library instead of the scp. Code looks like this:
SessionOptions sessionOptions = new SessionOptions
{
Protocol = Protocol.Sftp,
Hostname = "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
UserName = "root."
Password = "MyPasword"
SshHostKeyFingerprint = "ssh - rsa 2048 xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx"
};
' Private Sub WinScp (SessionOptions sessionOptions, string Cheminaccesfichiersource, string Cheminaccesfichierdestination)
{
using (session = Session()) new
{
Connect
session. Open (sessionOptions);
Download files
TransferOptions transferOptions = new TransferOptions();
transferOptions.TransferMode = TransferMode.Binary;
TransferOperationResult transferResult;
transferResult = session. PutFiles (transferOptions, Cheminaccesfichiersource, Cheminaccesfichierdestination, true);
Throw on any error
transferResult.Check ();
}
}
SshHostKeyFingerprint can be found in "Customize the Logs to view system"-> "Show Support information" of ESXi.

Script for the content data store
Hello
I'm new in the world of Vmware of scripts.
I used powercli and real working examples of scripts to find my way.
I am trying to create an inventory of the existing infrastructure of vmware.
I have a list of all the VMS and their data store, but I also need a data store content.
As:
a list of all the stores of data in a data center.
Download all the contents of the data store (folders, files vmdk, iso files, other files)
A list of all the folders / files with VMservers still known in the inventory.
The goal is to know if there are any files/VMservers on the data store, which are no longer in use and to check if we have duplicate in other data stores files
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Best regards
Dany

Try something like
dir vmstore: \-recurse

Help with script from beginner to the data store and hard drives
Hello
I am quite new to scripting, and recently, I created a monstrosity below.
The problem is with the results. I have no idea why in the results I get the name of the virtual machine and its data store over and over again until all disks are highlighted.
Any help will be very very much appreciated.
The script:
$raport = @)
Foreach ($i in (Get-Content "Y:\vms.txt"))
{
$rekord = «»
$vm = get-vm-name '$i '.
$dysk1 = $vm | Get-hard drive | where {$_.} Name - eq 'Disk 1'}
$datastore1 = $dysk1.filename.split("]") [0].split("[") [1]
$disks = $vm | Get-hard drive
{foreach ($disk in $disks)
$hd = «»
$disksize = ($disk. CapacityGB)
$hd += $disksize
{$rekord += $vm.name + ";" + $datastore1 + ";" + $hd}
$raport += $rekord
}
$raport | out-file 'Y:\dyski.csv '.
The results in csv:
VM1Name; datastoreName; 60; VM1Name:datastoreName; 50; VM1Name; datastoreName; 40
VM2Name; datastoreName; 45; VM2Name; datastoreName; 40
The results of dream in csv:

How can we maintain access to the presented LUNS and VMFS data store after we improve the ESX in ESXi with the new naming convention and the new model of IP addressing?
My back-end SAN EMC Clariion is VNX
Thanks in advance.
How are the hosts connected to storage systems. With FC HBA for example, there is basically nothing you need to do since the WWN will remain the same and so LUN presentation of the zoning on the switch and storage system does not need to be reconfigured.
