Attach baseline group

Hi Guys.

I have created a base line group that contains the VMware tools and hardware updates. I can attach to individual guests easy enough but there does not seem to be a way to add this base line group to all VM's on mass.

Now i have had a look in the PowerCLI and yes i can add baselines easy enough. What seems to be missing is Baseline groups?

Am i missing something here? A) I cant add on mass in the VCSA GUI and B) cant do it via PowerCLI?

Thanks in advance.

The Add-EntityBaseline cmdlet only allows one entity, but that is where the pipeline comes in handy.

Get-VM | Add-EntityBaseline -Baseline (Get-Baseline -TargetType VM -Name MyBaseline)

Thanks. But is this for adding baseline groups?

As i say baselines add fine. Baseline groups dont show up as something to use in PowerCLI

Oops, overlooked that.

No, I'm afraid the current PowerCLI build doesn't provide options for working with Baseline Groups.
