VMWare Usage Meter going bonky
I have a Usage Meter instance that insists that one of our vCenter servers is unlicensed for vRealize Operations Manager and doesn't have the extension installed, and is alerting every hour. Of course, it isn't licensed for it and doesn't have the extension installed, because it doesn't have vRealize Operations Manager installed in the first place. I don't know what it is detecting, but it's essentially complaining about nothing. Know any way to get it to shut up about it? It keeps generating false alarm tickets every hour since 3PM.

Re: Using the get-inventoryplus function getting error....
Did you try by using the Server parameter?
You could do for example
Get-InventoryPlus-Server $global:DefaultVIServers[0]

Re: Find linux box
Try something like this
Get-VM|
where{$_.ExtensionData.GuestFamily-ne'windowsGuest'}|
Select Name,
@{N='OS';E={$_.ExtensionData.Guest.GuestFullName}},
@{N='vNICType';E={(Get-NetworkAdapter-VM $_).Type -join'|'}}
If you don't want to rely on the VMware Tools and you are sure that all your VMs were configured with the correct GuestId, you could do
Get-VM|
where{$_.GuestId-notmatch'windows'}|
Select Name,
@{N='OS';E={$_.GuestId}},
@{N='vNICType';E={(Get-NetworkAdapter-VM $_).Type -join'|'}}

Re: Different Installers Not Working w/PXE Boot of UEFI Hosts
jburen - You sir, are a genius!
I first went down the route of trying another TFTP server. This actually was a good exercise to do. I was using the QNAP for both TFTP and DHCP, and that was due to the convenience of the solution but my intention was to always move those onto a Raspberry Pi eventually and have the QNAP be dedicated to just iSCSI storage needs. I just moved that project ahead of schedule, and now have the TFTP and DHCP services running off of the RPi with no problems.
Except I still could not load a different installer based upon the MAC address of the ESXi host. I was about to call it quits for the day, and logged onto here to post an update that it was still not working with a completely different TFTP server. Then I saw your post and gave it a shot. Adding the "01-" prefix is exactly what was missing. I edited the directory names, and now everything works as expected.
This is stated in the VMware documentation that I used:
"Create a subdirectory of /tftpboot named after the MAC address of the target host machine (01-mac_address_of_target_ESXi_host), for example, 01-23-45-67-89-0a-bc."
I just completely missed this step. I am going to suggest to the VMware staff that a change be made to the documentation though. I'd like to see the instruction changed to the following:
"Create a subdirectory of /tftpboot named "01-" followed by the MAC address of the target host machine (01-mac_address_of_target_ESXi_host), for example, 01-23-45-67-89-0a-bc"
Hopefully that will prevent others from making the same mistake that I did. Serves me right for working on the home lab well past a reasonable hour! I'm glad I turned to others for a second set of fresh eyes to take a look at the problem. Now I'm back on track for fully automating my home lab being built from scratch whenever I need to.

Re: NSX-T north-south traffic not working due to dropped ingress packets on Tier-0 router uplink
I spent lot more time but still no luck. I now started using fp-eth1 as well on the edge vm (nsxtedge02) with Tier-0 router and mapped it to a different VLAN than the transport VLAN. I'm sharing some info below from my own debugging - hopefully that will expose something for someone to help me.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 64-bit (in VMWare) does not allow setting native host resolution and saving screen settings.
Hello.
I just downloaded Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 64-bit ISO and installed in a VMware Workstation (15.1.0) VM. VM has the default settings, host screen resolution: 3840x2160 (latest Intel drvs). RH is updated, open-vm-tools installed. For some reason I can't set 3840x2160 (native host) resolution in RH. On top of that, RH does not remember screen settings. Host is W10Pro 1809.

Enabling PCI passthrough (Radeon HD 6770) and enabling VT-X on ESXi 6.7 U2
Hi, I am currently using ESXi 6.7 U2 (free) to run a Windows 10 guest OS. I am able to add a PCI device to my VM and enable the passthrough. This works as fine. Also, if I disable the PCI passthrough and enable the "expose hardware assisted virtualization" flag in the CPU settings for the VM, this also works fine.
However, when I try to enable both the PCI passthrough and the hardware assisted virtualization flag, I get the following error.
"PCI passthrough devices cannot be added when Nested Hardware-Assisted Virtualization is enabled."
This seems odd to me because I am not sure how those two are related. Doesn't the passthrough use VT-D and the hardware assisted virtualization use VT-X?
Is it possible to enable these at the same time?
Thanks!

Re: Clone VM has same IP address
I encountered this question as well～
I'm wondering did you find the solution？～
I found that the mac-address of the VMs are displayed differently,
and is also confirmed from ipconfig in the VM.
However, somehow the IPs are assigned as the same.
But the IPs are assigned as different if I create a new VM from scratch instead of cloning a VM.
