HI Lucd, If i manually enable SSH and run the below script to verify the SLP status, SSH gets disabled. So it's not able open new SSH session   $cmdsub1 = @' /etc/init.d/slpd status; '@ $cmdsub2 = @' chkconfig --list | grep slpd; '@ $secPswd = ConvertTo-SecureString -String $pswd -AsPlainText -Force $cred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential ($user, $secPswd) Get-VMHost -PipelineVariable esx | ForEach-Object -Process { Get-VMHostService -VMHost $esx | Where-Object { $_.Key -eq 'TSM-SSH' } | Start-VMHostService -Confirm:$false | Out-Null $session = New-SSHSession -ComputerName $esx.Name -Credential $cred -AcceptKey $current = Invoke-SSHCommand -SSHSession $session -Command $cmdSub1 $persistent = Invoke-SSHCommand -SSHSession $session -Command $cmdSub2 New-Object -TypeName PSObject -Property ([ordered]@{ VMHost = $esx.Name Current = $current.Output[0] Persistent = $persistent.Output[0] }) Remove-SSHSession -SSHSession $session | Out-Null Get-VMHostService -VMHost $esx | Where-Object { $_.Key -eq 'TSM-SSH' } | Stop-VMHostService -Confirm:$false | Out-Null } Regards, Kumar

Hi Norris, One more help. Instead of cluster name...can I change to one Single ESXI HOST there ..?? $ToolsAutoSettingsVMs = Get-Host "ESXIHOST NAME HERE" | Get-VM | Sort | Get-View -Property @("Name", "Config.GuestFullName", "Guest.GuestFullName", "Config.Tools.ToolsUpgradePolicy") | Select -Property Name, @{N="Configured OS";E={$_.Config.GuestFullName}}, @{N="Running OS";E={$_.Guest.GuestFullName}}, @{N='ToolsUpgradePolicy';E={$_.Config.Tools.ToolsUpgradePolicy }} Whether this works..?? Regards, Kumar.

Thanks for your reply .. I have to verify with Windows team whether UAC is enabled or disabled. If it's enabled , than i don't know whether i can disable it. When i checked in the system I'm running it's "enabled to notify" There is any way i can bypass this notify one & run automatically other than disabling (UAC) manually in all VM's  Regards, Kumar

Hi Lucd, I'm able to copy the .EXE to remote VM on C:\TEMP, but it's not executing the exe automatically. no error, But stuck her from past 20 min or any other way I can execute VM tools instead of doing it manually on Multiple Server's. Regards, Kumar  

Hi, Below is changes made for only ( Free Memory & CPU ) as per your instructions, $time = Get-Date Get-Cluster -PipelineVariable cluster | Get-VMHost| Select @{N='Cluster';E={$cluster.Name}},     @{N='VMHost';E={$_.Name}},     @{N='CPU GHz Capacity';E={[math]::Round($_.CpuTotalMhz/1000,2)}},     @{N='CPU GHz Used';E={[math]::Round($_.CpuUsageMhz/1000,2)}},     @{N='CPU GHz Free %';E={[math]::Round(($_.CpuTotalMhz - $_.CpuUsageMhz)/1000,2)/100}},     @{N='Memory Capacity GB';E={[math]::Round($_.MemoryTotalGB,2)}},     @{N='Memory Used GB';E={[math]::Round($_.MemoryUsageGB,2)}},     @{N='Memory Free %';E={[math]::Round(($_.MemoryTotalGB - $_.MemoryUsageGB),2)/100}},     @{N='Timestamp';E={$time}}| Export-Csv -Path c:\temp\ramdisk\Utilisationreport3.csv -NoTypeInformation -UseCulture Below is the Ooutput.
