Automation

Hi Everyone, 

We have bunch of vm's which are failing for vMotion as some the of vmware tools installation were stuck. I am able to resolve the issue by following the below KB Article. 

https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/1038542 

Now, I am trying to write a script to automate the above process mentioned in the article.

I am trying to ssh into the host using posh-ssh module to find the vmid so we can cancel the tools installation task.

$session=New-SSHSession -ComputerName "hostname" -Credential $esxcred

$streamssh = New-SSHShellStream -SSHSession $session

$streamsshoutput=Invoke-SSHStreamShellCommand -ShellStream $streamssh -Command "vim-cmd vmsvc/getallvms"

I get the output 

$streamsshoutput
vim-cmd vmsvc/getallvms
Vmid Name File Guest OS Version Annotation
1 TESTVM [Local-testhost01] TESTVM/TESTVM.vmx windows8_64Guest vmx-10
2 TESTVM2 [Local-testhost02] TESTVM2/TESTVM2.vmx windows8Server64Guest vmx-14

Now I need to filter only the VMID of the TESTVM2 so I can go ahead and cancel the task. I am not sure how to approach further on this.

Can someone help me in this process?
