Powershell script for ESXI

[ITandIT]

HI,

We have huge number of ESXI physical servers with many VMs hosted. We are planing to change existing network adapter with alternate adapter in all VMs. All ESXI hosts does not have similar local login credentials. Can anyone help me with powershell scripts to automate?

(Alternate network adapters available in all our ESXI hosts)

Instead of manually go on each virtual machine properties and change network adapter, looking for solution with powershell scripts.

Please move to PowerCLI.

Are all these under 1 vCenter?

Do you have an account that has administrator access to all these VMs?

What exactly are you planning?

A new vNIC on each VM?

And do you need to connect that to a new portgroup?

Have a look at How to change VM NIC to VMXNET3 without replacing MAC Address?
