VMINFO.PL: Powerstatus of the VM?

[Noman0118]

Hello all,

I have downloaded and compiled the VMware Infrastructure (VI) Perl Toolkit Packages (Latest Version: 1.5.0 | 1/17/2008 | Build: 67153). I am trying to get the

power state of the VM by executing the below script, but i cant get the output to do so. It simply prints out the help menu instead. When i use the powerstatus as a switch, do i pass anything as a argument? Please, help.

vminfo.pl --username XXXX --password XXXX --url XXXX --vmname XXXX --powerstatus ????

Thanks in advance!

You may have more look posting the "Management APIs" forum, which includes discussions about the VI Perl Toolkit (although, technically I think some moderator is supposed to move your post instead of you reposting).

Thanks, then this thread should be moved to "Management APIs" forum. Moderator please move this to the requested forum.
