Re: VEM install issue- URGENT
I found dump on one of our internal file share servers. I wish I could share the dump, but I don't have access to it now.
It's strange that we can't find that particular version anywhere.

На вашем месте я бы не заморачивался, а создал бы новую vm средствами esxi и dump\restore на нее "кривую систему"
Так и сделал - создал новую вирт. машину и откопировал на нее данные. Все работает. Спасибо.
Re: New VM on a Datastore Cluster
Hi Joerg,
thanks a lot for your feedback.
I already read your mentioned thread. But I'm not that scripting guru.
So I'm not able to modify the scripts to build up a new VM.
Does someone have a ready to use Workflow for deploying a VM on a Datastore Cluster?
It might be great if someone can share this workflow.

Re: extraction of request attachments
As far as I know VSM attachment (object) files are stored only in the database.
To retrieve the object you have to read the binary column HDS_IMAGE value (table HD_OBJECT) and save it to a file with name specified in the column HDS_TITLE. Bear in mind that you may get many objects with the same name so it could be helpful to attach REF_NO suffix to a file name.
Unable to use FCoE on Intel X540 cards
Hello.
I have a ESXi host (5.1.0 build 1021289, latest) with intel 82599EB-based cards (3.14.3 ixgbe driver, latest).
The cards are working fine, but... the "Add software FCoE adapter" option is greyed out for me.
Maybe the NIC should be in a separate vSwitch with no portgroups? Or maybe any other suggestions?
Thank you in advance.

"Есть ложь, есть наглая ложь, а есть статистика"
А что вы хотели получить используя Usage (%) Stacked per VM? Вполне возможна ситуация когда какое то количество ваших VM может иметь 100% CPU в сумме будет больше 100 точно
Хотите более понятную картинку возьмите Usage (MHz) Stacked per VM

Re: VEM install issue- URGENT
Got the answer from Cisco:
The VIB file is downloadable as part of a package from http://www.vmware.com/patch/download
The following link shows which VEM bundle has the corresponding VIB file.
For example, VEM500-201108271.zip has cross_cisco-vem-v131-4.2.1.1.4.1.0-3.0.4.vib. The bundle can be downloaded from vmware website.

Re: Remove detached device using powershell scripts.
1) All the LUNs in the text file
$luns = Get-Content luns.txt
$luns | %{ $e01.storage.core.device.detached.remove($_) }
This one works fine.
VCP Cloud Certification
Hello Experts,
I am new to VMware and planning to perceive the VCP Cloud Certification, hence wants to get some information with regards to that.
I dont have any VMware Certification currently, Can i directly go for VCP Cloud Certification ?
Does it matter if i am not a VCP4 certified or do i have to be one ?
Is there any traning center in India Bangalore for VCP Cloud ? If any name of registered centers will be helpful ?
Awaiting for the reply.
Thanks

Re: Remove detached device using powershell scripts.
2) The first 5 LUNs
$e01.storage.core.device.detached.list()|
Select-First5|%{ $e01.storage.core.device.detached.remove($_) }
3) The last 5 LUNs
$e01.storage.core.device.detached.list()|
Select-Last5|%{ $e01.storage.core.device.detached.remove($_) }
4) 5 randomly selected LUNs
$e01.storage.core.device.detached.list()|
Get-Random-Count5|%{ $e01.storage.core.device.detached.remove($_) }
This passes without any error, but luns are not removed.
Re: vCO Presentation/User Interaction Resources
Hi,
see the discussion here: http://communities.vmware.com/message/2064922
You can change the behavior with a configuration setting, mentioned in this thread.
I am not aware of any more documentation about it though .

monitor Vm using vcloud director sdk
Hi,
I have to monitor performances of VirtualMachines configured in a Vapp in vcloud director (i.e cpu, RAM and disk usage).
Can you suggest me some examples using vcloud director sdk?

Setting the boot order does not work
Hi all,
I'm trying to set the boot order of a VM with the help of a perl script. (VSphere 5.0.0) What I would like to achive is, that the VM tries to boot from network first and then from the first harddisk. (So that I can PXE boot it....)
I'm using the same method like mentioned in this community post: http://communities.vmware.com/message/1889377, so I'm actually setting new boot options with a ReconfigureVM task. At the end, the VM configuration looks like this:
'bootOptions' => bless( {
'bootDelay' => '3000',
'bootOrder' => [
bless( {}, 'VirtualMachineBootOptionsBootableCdromDevice' ),
bless( {
'deviceKey' => '4000'
}, 'VirtualMachineBootOptionsBootableEthernetDevice' ),
bless( {
'deviceKey' => '2000'
}, 'VirtualMachineBootOptionsBootableDiskDevice' )
],
'bootRetryDelay' => '20000',
'bootRetryEnabled' => '1',
'enterBIOSSetup' => '0'
}, 'VirtualMachineBootOptions' ),
So the boot order seems to be CDROM, network, hard disk, which is what I want it to be.
However, on the BIOS screen, the boot order is different and it also does not boot from network. So instead of “CDROM, Network, Disk” as the supposed config, it is using the displayed boot order in the BIOS, so “CDROM, Disk, Network”.
Does anybody know how to solve this? Is this propably a known bug?

Help: Troubles downloading English documentation
Hi! I can’t download the English documentation of vSphere 5.1 from the vmware.com website.
I’m connected to the US version of the website, the web site itself is English, but when I download for example http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-51/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-51-installation-setup-guide.pdf, than I get the German document.
Has anybody an idea?
