PowerCLI - Install VmTools without Rebooting

Hits: 475

The below script installs vmtools on Vms by using a csv file and it prevents the reboot. The installation for the VMs will start at the same time (not one by one)

#Connect to vcenter server
connect-viserver  <YourVCenterIPAddress>
Import-Csv deploy.csv |
foreach {
    $strNewVMName = $_.name
    #Update VMtools without reboot
    Get-Cluster <YourClusterName> | Get-VM $strNewVMName | Update-Tools -NoReboot -RunAsync
   write-host "WmTools Update Initiated $strNewVMName"
}

 

deploy.csv:

name
vm1
vm2
vm3
vm4
