PowerCLI VM Disk Usage
I have this script that I borrowed from another post. I would like to add what Cluster the VMs reside in as well....Having a hard time since I'm fairly new to this
$report = @()
foreach($vm in Get-VM){
Get-HardDisk -VM $vm | ForEach-Object {
$HardDisk = $_
$row = "" | Select Hostname, VM, GuestName, Datastore, VMXpath, HardDisk, DiskType, CapacityGB, DiskFreespace, TotalVMFSConsumed, ProvisionType
$row.Hostname = $vm.VMHost.Name
$row.VM = $VM.Name
$row.GuestName = $vm.Guest.HostName
$row.Datastore = $HardDisk.Filename.Split("]")[0].TrimStart("[")
$row.VMXpath = $HardDisk.FileName
$row.HardDisk = $HardDisk.Name
$row.CapacityGB = ("{0:f1}" -f ($HardDisk.CapacityKB/1MB))
$row.DiskFreespace = $vm.Guest.Disks | Measure-Object FreeSpaceGB -Sum | Select -ExpandProperty Sum
$row.DiskType = $HardDisk.get_DiskType()
$row.TotalVMFSConsumed = $vm.get_UsedSpaceGB()

Horizon Agent Ubuntu 16.04 - Resolution
Hi Guys,
I am running a pool of Ubuntu 16.04 full clone VMs that are being used for development.
After recent OS updates the View client connects, displays a black screen, then closes. The console is able to display the OS fine but the Agent wont fully connect.
The VM appears as Available in Horizon View, so the Blast agent appears to be running.
Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Is anyone seeing the same problem on Fusion 11 on Mojave?

vra catalog request submit --inputfile results in request with custom machine properties created but not populated. (CloudClient 4.5)
First I create a JSON file for my catalog request like so:
vra catalog request generate template --groupid <businessGroupName> --id RHEL --reason "" --export d:\myVraRequest.json
Then I edit this file to populate the various machine properties with the necessary values just the same as if submitting using the web console. Next I submit the edited JSON file:
vra catalog request submit --groupid <businessGroupName> --inputfile 'd:\myVraRequest_modified.json'
The request is successfully submitted and vRA does its thing. The problem is that the first EBS subscription reveals that that the majority of the custom machine properties do not have values populated. The only custom machine values with values populated are those that came from the request template above plus a couple more. There doesn't seem to be a pattern on which are getting values and those that are not.
What is even more strange is if I look at the request in the web console I see the same values for the corresponding input fields as I entered in the JSON file. If I submit the same catalog item and populate the input fields with the same values in the JSON file the request completes successfully, i.e. the custom machine property values are populated correctly. I have triple-checked the spelling and syntax.
Any ideas on what to try next or why this is happening?
Thanks in advance.

PowerCLI, use $ovfpath to point to a datastore instead of local storage
Hello all,
I am new to PowerCLI so looking for help here.
I have a virtual appliance from Fortinet (FortiVM) that I am trying to deploy using PowerCLI. The reason is I may need to bring up a large number of them at a time (around 2000) and scripting this would make more sense.
Through internet searching it appears that I can do this using a script invoking $ovfpath. The issue is that all of the examples I find are using local machine storage which I don't want to do.
Also, I am using NetApp for storage so I know that I may need to log in there as well to find out the folder in which the ovf is contained since the datastore tab.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Creating a scheduled task to migrate a VM to a different host
I need to create a scheduled task to move VMs to different hosts while remaining powered on.
I started from the excellent document in Scheduled Tasks - MethodAction - LucD notes and I was abie to create tasks to change the datastore for given VMs.
I am in trouble while creating tasks to change the host and ensuring that the VMs remain powered on while changing the host.
Is there any sample I can start from?

Update Manager errors after upgrade to VCSA 6.7
So after we upgrade to 6.7 the only thing that doesn't look like it's working is the update manager.
After doing some research, I've come across some who have had the same issues and said to follow this article to reset the Update Manager Database.
I'm having an issue running this part -> /usr/lib/vmware-updatemgr/bin/updatemgr-util reset-db
bash: /usr/lib/vmware-updatemgr/bin/updatemgr-util: No such file or directory
Am I missing something or did I do something wrong?

vSphere6.7 NFS datastore mkdir fail with "File exists" after delete VM from disk and recreate VM in same datastore with same name
Some of my 6.7 ESXi hosts got into this situation frequently after I run some automated tests. I have a few VMs in a NFS datastore, I powered all of them off, delete them from disk, go the ESXi console, checked the VM folder are gone, but if I try to create new VM with same name in same datastore, it complains "File exists", same problem if I run mkdir directly.
[root@houh10-0745:~] cd /vmfs/volumes/ds1
[root@houh10-0745:/vmfs/volumes/e1974343-ed7fe9e2] ls
[root@houh10-0745:/vmfs/volumes/e1974343-ed7fe9e2] mkdir win2k8_dtw_01rg_200_ATF_1
mkdir: can't create directory 'win2k8_dtw_01rg_200_ATF_1': File exists
I have not figure out how to get the ESXi into this state, other than run the long automated test so far.
When the ESXi is in this state, I tried restart vCenter, restart the services running on the ESXi host, or restart the NFS storage server for the datastore, neither will fix this problem. We checked from the NFS storage server side, there appear to be no mkdir command come in to the NFS server.
What is strange is, if I run mkdir with a new VM name, it will succeeded, and after that, I will be able to create the VM or mkdir with the VM name which was failing before.
Wonder if anyone have experience similar problem in 6.7, we have not seen this in 6.5 setups. Thanks.

Rollback Plan while upgrading from vcenter 5.5.U3 to 6.5 U2 VCSA
I want to know the exact measures that I need to take while migrating from vcenter server from 5.5 U3 to 6.5 U2. How can I take backup of the current vcenter server? Do i need to take backup of the current vcenter database server? Just taking a snapshot of the vcenter will ensure full backup? What are the steps that I need to do if my migration from vcenter server on windows to the appliance fails?

esxi 6.7 - how to boot guest in uefi?
Ok so I have a freshly created vm in esxi 6.7 that I went into the boot options and changed to efi.
Now I have attempted to boot off of the windows 10 1803 iso created from the Microsoft media creation tool and figured... maybe it isn't able to be setup as uefi.
Our imaging process we have on our physical boxes, we boot off of a thumb drive and launch booting a uefi_boot.iso through a custom menu and it does allow us to build a windows 10 box with uefi so I know this works.
Typically we copy the iso to our datastore and can mount and boot but I cant get the uefi vm to boot off of it.
trying to see what I am not doing correctly..
thanks as any help is greatly appreciated.

Issues - Installing vCenter Appliance 6.5
Hi everyone,
I've installed a vCenter Virtual Appliance 6.5 in my environment, and I've added two ESXI 6.0 to this vCenter. But, since I've installed the vCenter, some issues happened (take a look the picture attached on this discussion), such as: I can't make vMotion between ESXi, the VM creation isn't working, etc. What can I do to fix that?
Question: Should I deactivate Virtual San?
Obs.: When I've created the Cluster, I've activate some features. These configurations are attached.
Thanks in advance

Average IOPS View
Hey all,
I am looking for a way to get a list of the top 5 highest average read/write IOPS and Latency per VM view in VRNI. I am not finding a way to do this so far. I can see the VMs peak IOPS but not average. I just am looking for a way to pin point VMs running hot in these areas over a long period of time, because some peaks are to be expected.
Thanks,

Error: The assigned desktop source for this desktop is not currently availble
Since we switched our virtual desktop pool to suspend mode (to save on resources) users have been periodiacally receiving this message when they first try to connect to the desktop
The desktop has failed to open (name of pool). The assigned desktop source for this desktop is not currently available. Please try connecting to this desktop again later, or contact
your system administrator.
If they click on OK to close the error message and try again, most of the time the desktop will launch immediately. On rare occasions the users will need to logout of Portal, log back in, and launch the desktop again.
Does anyone know of any timers, retry values, or other settings that might assist in supressing this message and have the desktops launch without the user having to take these extra steps?
Thanks.
