About Use PowerCli Migration VMKernel Question

[YanSi]

Hi Guys

I use the following script to execute, although it is successful, but there are some questions

PS C:\> $csv = Import-Csv C:\C01-A-Migration-VMK0.csv -UseCulture
PS C:\> ForEach ($line in $csv){
>>     $vmhost = $line.Host
>>     $VDSName = $line.dvSwitch
>>     $VLANMGTPortgroup = $line.dvMGMTPG
>>     # Migrating VMkernel port (vmk0) on vSwitch to VDS
>>     $vmk = Get-VMHostNetworkAdapter -Name "vmk0" -VMHost $vmhost
>>     Write-Host "Migrate MGMT to" $VLANMGTPortgroup -fo Yellow
>>     $vdPortgroup = Get-VDPortGroup -VDSwitch (Get-VDSwitch -Name $VDSName) -Name $VLANMGTPortgroup
>>     Set-VMHostNetworkAdapter -PortGroup $vdPortgroup -VirtualNic $vmk -Confirm:$false
>> }
Migrate MGMT to C01-A-MGMT-V995

Why is the prompt as follows when I use the following command, and how to solve it?

These are just "warnings".
If you don't want to see them, turn them off with the Set-PowerCLIConfiguration cmdlet and the DisplayDeprecationWarnings switch.

Normally these warning messages include a line number where the deprecated parameter was discovered.

Thank you for your answer

You are the god of powercli    🙂

I have one more question, How to delete vSwitch0 of all hosts in a cluster?

[LucD]

Thanks.
Just a small remark, next time raise new questions in a new thread.
That makes it easier for others to find resolved questions.

Provided there is nothing left on vSwitch0 (no vmk nor PG), you could do something like this

Get-Cluster -Name <MyCluster> |
Get-VMHost -PipelineVariable esx |
ForEach-Object -Process {
    Get-VirtualSwitch -Name vSwitch0 -VMHost $esx |
    Remove-VirtualSwitch -Confirm:$false
}
