Powecli Script SRM recovery Plan IP Customization

[jooshilaig]

Hello Friends 

Just looking for automating  the addition  of  IP Customization Settings on the Recovery Plans using powercli , found a API for the IP customization , anyone have any idea how we can set the values for these Objects 

I am trying to Create  the Recovery setting object , with IP Customizations  , while setting the IpCustomizationSpec its throws an error

But if I create that as a standalone object it getting success ,

$testRS= New-Object  VMware.VimAutomation.Srm.Views.SrmRecoverySettings

$testRS.VmIpCustomizationData = New-Object VMware.VimAutomation.Srm.Views.SrmVmIpCustomization

$testRS.VmIpCustomizationData.IpCustomizationMappings = New-Object VMware.VimAutomation.Srm.Views.SrmVmIpCustomizationIpCustomizationSpecMapping

$testRS.VmIpCustomizationData.IpCustomizationMappings.IpCustomizationSpec = New-Object VMware.VimAutomation.Srm.Views.SrmVmIpCustomizationIpCustomizationSpec

PS C:\Scripts> $testRS.VmIpCustomizationData.IpCustomizationMappings.IpCustomizationSpec = New-Object VMware.VimAutomation.Srm.Views.SrmVmIpCustomizationIpCustomizationSpec

InvalidOperation: The property 'IpCustomizationSpec' cannot be found on this object. Verify that the property exists and can be set.

PS C:\Scripts> New-Object VMware.VimAutomation.Srm.Views.SrmVmIpCustomizationIpCustomizationSpec

DnsSuffixes HostName NicCustomizationSpecs

Hi,

Due to it being a complex object must do like this:

NOTE - have to use actual SiteUuid for your recovery site ... this one is just an example.

$testRS.IpCustomizationMappings = [pscustomobject]@{
IpCustomizationSpec = New-Object VMware.VimAutomation.Srm.Views.SrmVmIpCustomizationIpCustomizationSpec;
SiteUuid="323tyc10-f4c0-9m9z-v585-47474747try9";
}

Also note that some fields are arrays such as DnsSuffixes and DnsServerList:

$testRS.IpCustomizationMappings.IpCustomizationSpec.DnsSuffixes = @("mydomain1.com", "mydomain2.com")

ETC

$testRS.IpCustomizationMappings.IpCustomizationSpec.NicCustomizationSpecs.IpV4AddressSpecs.StaticAddressInfo.Address = "10.20.30.111"

You can create/populate the full object and then write it back to SRM config (thanks to Ben Meadowcraft's work):

i.e. partial snippets here after connecting to protected site and srmserver

$rp = Get-SrmRecoveryPlan -Name "my_srm_plan"

$vm = Get-Vm -Name "my_vmname"

$pvm = $rp | Get-SrmProtectedVM | Where-Object {($_.VmName -EQ $vm.Name )}

$recoverySettings = $pvm | Get-SrmRecoverySetting -RecoveryPlan $rp

$recoverySettings.VmIpCustomizationData.IpCustomizationMappings = $testRS.IpCustomizationMappings

Set-SrmRecoverySetting -RecoveryPlan $rp -Vm $vm -RecoverySettings $recoverySettings

Hope this helps.

cheers

Has anyone figured this out? I am having the hardest time with this

$SrmRecoverySettings = New-Object -TypeName vmware.vimautomation.srm.views.SRMVmIpCustomization

$SrmRecoverySettings.IpCustomizationMappings = [pscustomobject]@{
IpCustomizationSpec = New-Object VMware.VimAutomation.Srm.Views.SrmVmIpCustomizationIpCustomizationSpec;
SiteUuid="323tyc10-f4c0-9m9z-v585-47474747try9";
}

$SrmRecoverySettings.IpCustomizationMappings.IpCustomizationSpec.NicCustomizationSpecs.IpV4AddressSpecs.StaticAddressInfo.Address = "127.0.0.1"
