This time I will present a very short powercli that I use to mass change ESXi hosts vSwitches. First, it retrieves a specific cluster, then all hosts in the
cluster and for each host it starts configuration. There are 2
vSwitches on each host. Next, on each vSwitch it creates a new portgroup, it
retrieves teaming policy, disables inherit failover and reverses the
active and stanby vmnics.
get-cluster CLTEST01 | get-vmhost | foreach {
get-virtualswitch -VMHost $_
-Name vSwitch0 | New-VirtualPortGroup -Name pg_QLF_A_91 -VLanID 91 |
Get-NicTeamingPolicy | Set-NicTeamingPolicy -InheritFailoverOrder:$false
| Set-NicTeamingPolicy -MakeNicActive vmnic1 -MakeNicStandby
vmnic0
get-virtualswitch -VMHost $_
-Name vSwitch1 | New-VirtualPortGroup -Name pg_QLF_I_92 -VLanID 92 |
Get-NicTeamingPolicy | Set-NicTeamingPolicy -InheritFailoverOrder:$false
| Set-NicTeamingPolicy -MakeNicActive vmnic3 -MakeNicStandby
vmnic2
}
What I really enjoyed is the simplicity of PowerCLI.
