Configuring Update Manager via PowerCLI

[MarcBouchard]

I have multiple environments to build and configure and I'm trying to automate as much as possible. Current step is "Update Manager".

What I need to do is this: 

- Add a repository (HPE)

- Create a baseline using specific Extensions from this repository

- Create a baseline group combining this new baseline and the default Non-Critical and Critical baselines

- Apply this baseline to my cluster

I've found this https://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-6-0/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.vmware.powercli.ug.doc%2FGUID-BCD266EC-2A...

which covers most steps except the "Add a repository".

Anyone has a script similar to this that they are willing to share, or if you can help me with the repository addition that would be great.

Thanks!

I'm afraid that cmdlet/functionality is missing.
And afaik, there are no public API that would allow one to code it.

That also explains the several PowerCLI ideas asking something similar.

Thanks Luc. That's fairly basic though, hopefully it will be added soon! (too late for me but still 🙂 )
