Regarding SDK for Perl

nagarajkoti · ‎02-02-2010

Hi,

I am very new to VmWare , i am trying to run the perl script getHostHardwareHelathInfo.pl on the VMware ESX 4.1.0 build-223214, it throwing the error mentioned below.

Can't locate VMware/VIRuntime.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.7/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.6/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.7 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.6 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8 .) at ./getHostHardwareHealthInfo.pl line 9.

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./getHostHardwareHealthInfo.pl line 9

Please provide me the solution for my issue. is it required to install any Vmware perl module if this is the case from where i have to download the perl module how to install the perl module, please suggest me.

The script is not supposed to be executing on an ESX(i) host but on a separate management system running vCLI OR you can run it by default on VMware vMA. Please carefully go over the documentation as this is stated.

I would also reconsider updating your post if you don't want to violate any NDAs.

Hi,

i am using VMware ESX 4.1.0 build-223214 machine not "ESX(i) machine". i hope the earlier reply i received for ESX(i) machine.

Thanks
