Re: How to Query Multiple vCenter’s 6.x for licenses usage using powercli

You are initialising the array $vSphereLicInfo for each vCenter in the loop.
Try something like this instead.

 

$VCArray=("VC1","VC2")

Connect-VIServer-Server $VCArray-User  'user1@test.com'-Password 'test'|Out-Null


$global:defaultviservers|

   ForEach-Object-Process {

   $vc=$_

   $ServiceInstance=Get-View ServiceInstance -Server $vc

   $LicenseMan=Get-View-Id $ServiceInstanceContent.LicenseManager-Server $vc

   $LicenseMan.Licenses|

   ForEach-Object-Process {

   New-Object PSObject -Property @{

   VC=([Uri]$vc.ServiceUri.AbsoluteUri).Host

   Name=$_.Name

   Key=$_.LicenseKey

   Total=$_.Total

   Used=$_.Used

   }

   }

}|Export-Csv-Path '.\report.csv'-UseCulture -NoTypeInformation

You should ask your VMware Partner or VMware sales so they can provide a time limited license key.

Re: Outlook .OST file problem using AppVolumes (writable) when Windows Search service is active

Outlook ost and Search Index and Writeable Volumes

 

 

This thread helped me if you haven't solved it.

 

Basically you create an OST outside of the users\ path

You include the custom OST path, ex c:\outlookdata in the snapvol.cfg

You exclude everything else (except windows search)

 

the two articles mentioned in the thread above might help.

Try the attached script.

When the VM is powered off, instead of the individual guest OS partitions, you will see 'All' in MountPoint column.

Are there then only 2 such rules on the cluster?

If yes, then the script could be quite simple.

Something like this for example

 

$clusterName='MyCluster'

$cluster=Get-Cluster-Name $clusterName


$vmInRule=@()


Get-DrsVMToVMHostRule-Cluster $cluster|

   ForEach-Object-Process {

   $vm=(Get-DrsClusterGroup-Cluster $cluster-Name $_.VmGroupName).Member.Name

   $vmInRule+=$vm

   $obj=[ordered]@{

   RuleName=$_.Name

   VM=$vm-join'|'

   }

   New-Object psobject -Property $obj

}


$obj=[ordered]@{

   RuleName='Not in a rule'

   VM=(Get-VM-Location $cluster|where{$vmInRule-notcontains$_.Name}).Name -join'|'

}

New-Object psobject -Property $obj

Re: MAC learning in non Enterprise Plus with VMware 6.7

You already gave a great overview of workarounds of the vSwitch dfficiencies in ESXi (which is a vHub, not a vSwitch).

Unfortunately I can only confirm that the binary of the 6.5.0 dvfilter-maclearn vib doesn't work with ESXi 6.7

(Log: Load of <dvfilter-maclearn> failed : missing required namespace <com.vmware.vmkapi.incompat#v2_4_0_0>, although there's "vmkapi_v2_4_0_0_dvfilter_shim").

 

No idea why Learnswitch requires a distributed vSwitch – in my case, I don't want to utilze DVS, even where I do have the licenses.

 

So the lack of real switching-capability fixes for standard vSwitch in ESXi 6.7 is a severe regression, independent of the purchased license.

I had to roll back to 6.5 in many environments, where I have machines with virtual guest tagging (VGT).  Not very satisfying situation.

Hopefully VMware releases esx-dvfilter-maclearn-6.7.0.vib very soon.  Shouldn't be much more effort than a new compiler run and maybe some struct adaptions...

It's getting to be 10 years since the answer to the question but this deserves more up votes. It's really annoying how some setting adjustments for VM are needed to be done in vmx file itself.

Many thanks to epowell , that's the answer to a question OP was asking.

Re: Yosemite virtual machine freezes with a black screen after changing Compatibility settings

Hi,

 

I think Sven might be right.

 

On the Yosemite VM of mine that works OK I had no problems.

Enabled the login screen for trying to reproduce... still no problems.

Shut it down again and changed from USB2 in the VM Settings -> USB & Blue tooth -> Advanced USB settings into USB3 and I could no longer login.

The login screen displays, but it won't let me login.

 

Not exactly the problem you described, but close enough that I recommend changing the USB guest virtual hardware from USB3 to USB2.

I really didn't have time to go through the VMware tech support ( at work we use ESXs as may corporations do -- it was hell and in the end they didn't help at all ). And we pay lots of money there.

With single user license my hopes are really small to none for them to solve this issue (which is probably more complex).

 

This is why I chose to rollback both OSX to High Sierra (10.13.6) and VMware fusion (10.1.5) and I have no problems.

For anyone who really needs VMware@osx it's really the path of least resistance.

i need to say that i don't have Cisco Hardware.  but just saw kinda similar pain issues with Ibm/supermicro once used nativ driver or older legacys.

 

i have currently this legacy driver in use: Version 6.612.07.00

 

also i installed storcli. as its very helpfully

 

i also disabled /etc/init.d/smartd  .    as it makes no sense for an Raid Device.  only make sense if it takes straight to disks.

 

you're using lsi providers?

Best regards

Hi

There's no way to "reset" the evaluation period without reinstalling. If you are working with a partner, they have access to quarterly keys used for PoC and other functionalities.

Re: windows 10 1809 slow

Out of interest guys - How are you finding the performance once the VM's have booted up? - I'm finding both Server 2019 and Windows 1809 (with the latest updates) are sluggish opening up explorer, settings menu etc.

 

Also - seamless apps published through a Citrix Server 2019 VDA are also a lot more sluggish in comparison with my 2012 R2 VDA's.

What Guest type to select for Windows ME

It seems that Windows ME is no longer an available option as a guest operating system in the vSphere menu. There is no documentation on this.

 

Will selecting "Windows 98" be adequate?

Service account - Appstack

Hi ,

 

Hope you all are doing great ...

 

We doing a published application using RDSH farm. We use RDSH host for OS Delivery and App Volumes for application delivery.

 

I have a capture machine which also an RDSH host very similar to my farm setup.

 

We want to start our application using a domain account rather than the local system account due to the admin previleges.

 

During the capture process we installed our application and set the start up type of the application as automatic and the start up account as the domain account.

 

We ended our capture and attached the appstack to our farm, then when I go to services to see whether my application is starting using the domain account which I had configured during capture. I could only find that my app is using local system account to start. There is a difference between capture and current setup.

 

Also If I try to start it using the domain account directly on my RDSH host , everything works fine until i reboot my RDSH host then everything switches back to local system account.

 

please suggest how could I tackle this scenario.
