Hi Luc,
i have been trying to implement vsphere best practices and new features on vmware environment using powercli .
i am in process of checking following and thought of discussing with you if we can add additional features in following list.
1:content Library
2:vcenter high availability
3:virtual machines encryption (that need KMS server i think that incur cost to customer)
4:file based backup(needs location of ftp server)
5:per vm evc
6:enhanced link mode
7:i am planning to do this with powercli 11.5 and posh ssh module .
2012 R2 control center on powercli lab as suggested by yu.
See Install and configure an FTP server with PowerShell

I'm afraid I can't see that the attached file points to your vCenter.
Which I can't resolve of course.

above is backup location .this is from the complete backup wizard .
all i want to know if i navigate to c:\backuo directory,am i supposed to get backup file??
That is where the FTP file(s) should be located

well i dont see anything inside this folder .where shud i navigate eo check backupfile?
Do you have write access to that folder?
Can you try FTP-ing a file in there from the CMD prompt?

i think i can see now .
And can you see the backup folders and files with the File Explorer?

i a cm checking this .however i just found that this lab sso soamin is
regionA.local
so now iam able to connect to cisserver with
administrator@regionA.local.
it shud be coorected in readme.txt file /
Part of the screenshots in the Lab Guide are from a previous version.
And so is apparently the readme.txt file on the desktop.
There is a Survey when you end the lab, I would suggest providing your comments there.
On the HOL homepage there is also an Any Questions or Feedback? link.

yes i will.i m going to check this with rest apis .
if you could check below for configuring ftp on control center on powercli lab .
if it is working for you ??
$ip='192.168.110.10'
Get-WindowsFeature|?{$_.installstate -eq "installed"}
install-WindowsFeature Web-FTP-Server -IncludeAllSubFeature
Install-WindowsFeature web-server -IncludeAllSubFeature -IncludeManagementTools
Import-Module WebAdministration
# Create the FTP site
$FTPSiteName = 'Default FTP Site'
$FTPRootDir = 'C:\FTPRoot'
$FTPPort = 21
New-WebFtpSite -Name $FTPSiteName -Port $FTPPort -PhysicalPath $FTPRootDir -Force
That is only part of the setup.
You will need to create a user/group, assign permissions....
The article I pointed to earlier is rather complete, have a look at the additional steps.

i was expecting default site under iis manger after running this part of code only .
somehow i dont see that .
that post is for 2016 server may be thats the reson it does not work onn 2012 r2
Just tried the exact same lines you have posted, and for me it works.
But I repeat, that is only part of the setup for an FTP server.
