A quick one :
Trying to find which vms are residing on datastore :”datastore_name” and are located in cluster “your_cluster”
|
1 2 3 |
Get-Cluster "your_cluster"|Get-vm |?{($_.extensiondata.config.datastoreurl|%{$_.name}) -contains "datastore_name"} #or Get-Cluster "your_cluster"|Get-vm |?{($_.extensiondata.config.datastoreurl|?{$_.name -eq "datastore_name"})} |
It’s easier if the vms reside on particular datastore and you do not care in which cluster they are:
|
1 |
(Get-Datastore -Name 'datastore_name').Extensiondata.Vm|%{(Get-View -Id $_.toString()).name} |
|
1 2 |
get-vmhost -Location "Cluster_01"|get-datastore|%{$ds=$_; $ds.Extensiondata.Vm|%{$_|select @{n='vm name';e={(Get-View -property name -Id $_.toString()).name}},@{n='ds name';e={$ds.name}} }} Get-Datastore -Name (get-content c:\dsfile.txt) | %{$temp=$_; $temp.extensiondata.vm | % { $_ | select @{n='VMName';e={(get-view -property name -id $_).Name}},@{n='ds';e={$temp.name}}}} |
