ESXi Hard ware Infrastructure

harish sarvaLurker

Hello All,

I have a question for you guys, How can I automate the ESXi infrastructure and they should be updated for every two weeks. I am wondering do we have to run any scripts for updates. I have been told to automate the H/W infrastructure as

Rack location

Make/Model/SerialNo.

CPU/Memory/Disks

Operating System

All IP addresses

Login method (local users/ldap/AD)

Can you please help me out guys if you have an Idea about this,

Thanks

Assuming that you are trying to collect that information programatically, your best option is to use PowerCLI and export the information into CSV. Running that script on a scheduled task would then ensure the data is kept up to date.

This post is probably a good start: https://www.vmadmin.co.uk/resources/48-vspherepowercli/251-powerclinetworkoutputcsv
