Hello All,
I'm looking for a script which will help me do interim audit while upgrading the
1)VM tool version status
2)VM Hardware version
3)VMFS version upgrade. ( E.g. 5.60, 5.81,6.81 etc
4)ESXi Firmware Upgrade (HPE HW - I have the script)
5)ESXi host version 5.5 & 6.5
Note :- 1)We need to extract report only for the Microsoft OS 2008,2008R2,2012,2012R2 & 2016 only.
ii) EXclude powered off VM's
thanks

Try like this
Get-VM |
Select @{N='VMHost';E={$esx.Name}},
@{N='VM';E={$_.Name}},
@{N='VMHost Version';E={$esx.Version}},
@{N='VMHost Firmware';E={'???'}},
@{N='Datastore';E={(Get-Datastore -RelatedObject $_ | where{$_.ExtensionData.Summary.MultipleHostAccess}).Name -join '|'}},
@{N='Datastore Version';E={(Get-Datastore -RelatedObject $_ | where{$_.ExtensionData.Summary.MultipleHostAccess}).FileSystemVersion -join '|'}},
@{N='VMware Tools';E={$_.Guest.ToolsVersion}},
@{N='HW';E={$_.Version}}

Try like this.
I left the ESXi firmware open, since I don't have HP HW to test.
You should plug in the code you have.
Get-VM |
Select @{N='VMHost';E={$esx.Name}},
@{N='VM';E={$_.Name}},
@{N='VMHost Version';E={$esx.Version}},
@{N='VMHost Firmware';E={'???'}},
@{N='Datastore';E={(Get-Datastore -RelatedObject $_).Name -join '|'}},
@{N='Datastore Version';E={(Get-Datastore -RelatedObject $_).FileSystemVersion -join '|'}},
@{N='VMware Tools';E={$_.Guest.ToolsVersion}},
@{N='HW';E={$_.Version}}

LucD,
Firmware version also possible through your script, I guess not. if possible then include for HPE HW.
VMHost Firmware';E={'???'}}''
thanks

What script do you have?
I can try to inject that code into this one.

$cmdSub = '/usr/lib/vmware/vmkmgmt_keyval/vmkmgmt_keyval -a'
shared by you in earlier mail thread. I'm only looking for host firmware
That command produces a lot more output, not just the firmware version.
So you would have to extract the firmware version from the returned text.
Since I don't have HP HW I don't know how the ouputlooks like and what exactly to extract.
If you can show me what an ESXi node returns and which field you want, I can give it a shot to extract the firmware version.

Ok , let me check. Meanwhile, Can we exclude local data store VMFS version from the output?
Try like this
Get-VM |
Select @{N='VMHost';E={$esx.Name}},
@{N='VM';E={$_.Name}},
@{N='VMHost Version';E={$esx.Version}},
@{N='VMHost Firmware';E={'???'}},
@{N='Datastore';E={(Get-Datastore -RelatedObject $_ | where{$_.ExtensionData.Summary.MultipleHostAccess}).Name -join '|'}},
@{N='Datastore Version';E={(Get-Datastore -RelatedObject $_ | where{$_.ExtensionData.Summary.MultipleHostAccess}).FileSystemVersion -join '|'}},
@{N='VMware Tools';E={$_.Guest.ToolsVersion}},
@{N='HW';E={$_.Version}}

LucD,
It worked, if you can inject the below information using the previous thread

Is this returned from the command?
Is that 1 long string or separate lines?
And which number in there is the firmware version?
Blog: lucd.info Twitter: @LucD22 Co-author PowerCLI Reference
Sorry, not from this command. It was an example only and extracted from ESXCLI.
/usr/lib/vmware/vmkmgmt_keyval/vmkmgmt_keyval -a
will perform a detailed dump
LucD,
Is this returned from the command? /usr/lib/vmware/vmkmgmt_keyval/vmkmgmt_keyval -a
Is that 1 long string or separate lines? It's column wise.
And which number in there is the firmware version? from text file. Let me know if you want to see the output.
In case not feasible then i'm fine LucD. I appreciate your help here.
Yes please, show some sample output.
Perhaps I can find a way to extract the required data.
Blog: lucd.info Twitter: @LucD22 Co-author PowerCLI Reference
Thanks.
Which field in there is the actual firmware version you want to see?
I find 2 HBA adapters, FC ports and 2 drivers, but no server node info.
Blog: lucd.info Twitter: @LucD22 Co-author PowerCLI Reference
LucD,
Yes, it seems node info is missing here. I'll check with the team and find out how they did pull out below info. I'm exactly looking the below info. sorry for the confusion.

LucD,
I did check from the team, firmware info was extracted from HP oneview.
That's what I suspected.
Any other way of getting the info?
Or do you leave if out from the report?
If you have that OneView report in a file, we could extract the info from there.
But I would need a sample report to determine how to extract the info.
