Author : Pierre-Henri Symoneaux ( pierre-henri.symoneaux@gmail.com ) The script "configure_esx.ps1" lets you automate ESX hosts configuration and Virtual Machines deployment without Virtual Center. The settings are stored in an XML file (named "config.xml" by default). You can also define new permission roles in the "Permission_for_roles.xml" file. The script is suitable for VMware Infrastructure 4.0 but also works for 4.0i, 3.5 and 3.5i Some features could work on Virtual Center but it is not recommended to launch the script on a Virtual Center. For more details about features, check the "Using the XML file" pdf and the readme.txt
Ideal tool to secure / reproduce the ESX configuration from scratch.
The implementation is clean.
Like the xml level abstraction.
Good work !
