Install Windows Feature from vRO

Hi

I'm pretty new to vRealize Orchestrator.

I planed to clone a windows server and then install a windows feature to this cloned Windows VM.

Do I have to do this with a powershell host or how it works?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Andi,

You can install a windows feature by running a PowerShell script using Guest script manager package for vRO available here - Guest script manager package

Another option would be to use vRO PowerShell plug-in.

As for the the exact syntax/arguments of Install-WindowsFeature PowerShell cmdlet - just google for it, there are a lot of samples online eg Install or Uninstall Roles, Role Services, or Features

Hi Ilian

Thanks for your reply.

I was able to use PowerShell with the vRO PowerShell plug-in.
