vSphere command-line Interface (vCLI)

Hello

first of all, sorry for my English...

I'm new here and I have a question for VMWARE vSphere Hypervisor.

I have donwloaded VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi) and installed the server component and the Client.

Now, I want to use my client "vSphere command-line Interface (vCLI)", but I can't find it on my client.

Can someone help me?

Greetings

Markus

Hello

I think you should download the bundle separately. Please download the version of your esxi version.

    I was looking at the order for the vCLI reference and have two questions:

    There are orders for the export of ovfs?  I looked good enough and could not find.  orders for the export of .vmdks could there be to make offline backups?

    I noticed there was an option for vmotion using the vCLI... which requires a license full vsphere, or is - this can be used on just the free version of ESXi with the vCLI?

    Thank you.

    The ovftool does not come with vCLI, but is available for windows, mac & linux VMware:

    http://communities.VMware.com/community/VMTN/vSphere/automationtools/OVF

    For export VMDK, you can modify the file browser scripts to catch them from the data store, or watch William Lam ghettoVCB scripts.

    For vMotion, the script works only with a vCenter vMotion-enabled - no way to get there with raw ESXi.

  • Command line interface

    How do I access the command line interface so I can set up my series of cisco router 2600. I don't seem to know where that on my netbook. What port also can connect the cable to the internet router.

    Hello

    You must Access the port console of the router using a cable from the console. Your netbook probably doesn't have a serial port to do this, so you will need a USB-serial adapter.

    Once you have, you need terminal software. PuTTy is a good lightweight program that you can download for free.

    If you want to give the internet router, you must choose a WAN port. Assuming that you don't have a HWIC-ESW in the router, any port will do.

    There is here a guide that can be useful for:

  • Essential support for creating custom reports on "Openmanage" using "Essentials" command line Interface

    Good afternoon

    Please can you help to create custom reports in "Essential Openmanage" using "Essentials" command line Interface

    The default reports are not feasible.

    Hi there Oswaldo and thank you for the question.

    Currently, OME 1.3 doesn't have a custom report generator.  I don't think that the CLI help as it is mainly used to set up from the beaches of discovery and things like that.

    There is a REST API that _may_ allow to return by the data of the database of the MEO program.  The REST API guide is in the section of the Documentation on the Dell TechCenter for OME page.

  • How to create a 'command-line interface' for a game?

    Hey people,

    For a game that I have to make a similar command-line interface where the user has at least 3 options to respond with, anyone know how to on this subject?

    I hope someone here can help me out!

    Kind regards

    Angela

    I don't know what part of it, you are having trouble with. Imagine for a moment that instead of asking for your end user typing something into a text input field and monitor what they type (maybe), who instead of you provide 3 buttons on your stage. Answering a press of button in this scenario as respondent to typed user input - your film something is based on the interaction of the user. Enter the user entered text scenario, a text or field sprite can detect the key ENTER and examine the string that the user entered, something like:

    on keyDown me
      if _key.keyCode = 36 then
        stopEvent
        sText = sprite(me.spriteNum).member.text
        case sText of
          "hack": -- do whatever you need to here
          "research":
          "wait":
          otherwise:
        end case
      else
        pass
      end if
    end
    
  • Control CMD (command line interface) using Labview 2011.

    Hello

    I'm trying to control software that has an interface to command line using LabView 2011 but I have problems when reading the information.

    Is attached the VI I created so far, but it is not working properly.

    Problems so far:

    1 - if I use ReadLine(), it blocks showing no error and nothing else.

    2 - ReadToEnd () same problem as the previous line, the software hangs just at this stage.

    3 - if I compare the response of the "peek" in waiting for the - 1 indicating there is not more character, the hook of software as the previous steps.

    You have some clues as to what might be wrong or another way to 'control' the CMD to send messages, read and send messages, etc...

    Thank you very much for your help.

    I've done it before - I posted about this on the forum here: https://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/How-to-open-close-and-monitor-a-application-xyz-exe-using/m-p/32511...

  • Java command line interfaces seem to have limits?

    Hello

    The code I use normally use stuff 'old-school' process (Runtime.getRuntime () .exec ("...")) when I noticed this problem, but I have since moved to the 'new school' ProcessBuilder class (ProcessBuilder.start ()).

    Basically, what I do is to dynamically generate an order of command line based on some user input. It is be a netezza command ("nzload"), but I don't think it's really too important.

    The command that has been generated is:

    nzload-host 'ipaddress' u 'username' - pw "password" - db "databasename" t "tablename" securityLevel - preferredSecured - df "/ pretty/long/path/to/data/file.csv"-logFileSize 2000 - delim, - quotedValue No.
    (P.S. I got this NZLOAD command by adding an 'echo' in front of 'nzload' in my processbuilder. Output, then the published standard my order that I could copy and paste in a test outside Java shell.)

    If I copy/paste this line in the shell on the computer, on that copy the following code executes, it works perfectly. However (and don't forget, this line has been generated by my code), it runs using ProcessBuilder.Start () gives me weird errors. From the beginning, it seemed that errors had something to do with the quotes. I tried single quotes, double quotes, and finally I took the quotes on. So far my experience with this is that if I have even a set of quotes in there, the NZLOAD utility return strange errors like "can't connect" or something on the level of security is not wrong. It seems that maybe the quotes are somehow If incompatible in Java so it tries to take 'more' than I want only it for, say, the "hostname" parameter However, these errors are B.S. since I can run the same exact command in the command line with success (no copy and paste nonsense).

    For reference, my code processbuilder is something like this:

    ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder();

    PB.Command (). Add ("nzload");
    String hn = this. Host;
    * if (hn! = null & & hn.trim () .length () > 0) {*}
    PB.Command (). Add("-Host");
    PB.Command (). Add (HN);
    *}*

    * if (user.trim () .length () > 0) {*}
    PB.Command (). Add ("u");
    PB.Command (). Add (User.Trim ());
    PB.Command (). Add("-PW");
    PB.Command (). Add (Pass.Trim ());
    *}*
    *//...*
    Process p = pb.start ();
    RV = p.waitFor ();
    * //grab deviation / entry and displays TI *.
    (Obviously it's an extract without any quote either. A_le_prealable, I got the quotes around all of these areas, such as pb.command () .add ("------" "+ hn +" \ "");.)

    (1) how can I debug this problem so that it is more generic and easy to understand (rather than use orders nzload that none of you guys probably know anything)?

    (2) are there any limitations/known issues with using Java shell command execution?

    Thank you guys!

    Where "certain limits" == "huge PITA? Can't disagree with that.

    I would not spend more time trying to debug that. I would just pass to the ProcessBuilder constructor that takes a list or an array of strings and let him deal with the problems of scoring. Or at least start with that and see if there are still citing questions yet.

    Hello

    Try vmware-vim-cmd.

    As in:

    vmware-vim-cmd /hostsvc/datastore/refresh
    

    You may need to add the store of data as a parameter.

    See also:

    http://www.VI-Toolkit.com/wiki/index.php/hostsvc/datastore/refresh

    Beware that your username must have good credentials to run the command.

    Hope this helps

  • ESXi 4.0 command line upgrade to ESXi 4.0 U1

    I know there is a method in ESX using "esxupdate", but is there a simple process similar to ESXi commandline? Can someone post a step by step method and let me know which download install? I downloaded this...

    Upgrade the ESXi Server 4.0 package to ESXi Server 4.0 Update 1

    This package provides experienced users with the possibility to upgrade remotely, without head of ESXi Server 4.0 to ESXi Server 4.0 Update 1. Use this package with the Remote Command Line Interface 'vihostupdate '.

    Or is it not available for ESXi?

    Probably because you do not pass in the right syntax params and by default, it will use localhost. All orders of vCLI has always the default value - server, username - and - password (or you can let the password off and you will be asked)

    Try this:

    vihostupdate.pl --server 10.4.75.230 -user user -i -b C:\ESXi-4.0.0-update01.zip
    

    and assuming that the IP is your ESXi host, you will be asked your password

    Note: Also, if you use the vCLI to automate all the tasks, to ensure that you are on an eval edition or duly authorized of ESXi, as you can't use the vCLI with the free version of ESXi else, you will get an error.

  • Command line to deploy the project database in offline mode

    Y at - it a there command-line tool that will allow me to deploy database objects that I defined in a project database offline in a target database?

    I want to integrate continues an Oracle DB so I will need to:

    • Compare a target DB with DB objects defined in a project database offline
    • Generate a DIFF of this comparison script
    • Run the DIFF script on the target DB

    My goal is to automate these steps through some sort of command line tool.

    No data is involved. Just DB objects like tables (structure only), types, procedures, etc.

    On the past (2011) they said it was not possible (https://community.oracle.com/message/9840162)

    If this is not possible, is there another continuously integrate Oracle DB of a predefined template? Something like DACPAC for MSSQL, but for Oracle DB?
