- Hi Steve, Seems interesting!!!! I am trying to run “ipconfig” on “cmd” i.e. I tried the following code: GuestProgramSpec spec = new GuestProgramSpec(); spec.programPath = “C:\\Windows.
- Windows file sharing often doesn't work across machines. Our expert describes classic Windows file sharing problems and Windows HomeGroup issues, as well as potential solutions.
- Repairing Damaged Winsock2. The symptoms when Winsock2 is damaged shows when you try to release and renew the IP address using IPCONFIG. And you get the following error message: An error occurred while renewing.

Run Program in Guest Operating System on VMware. Integrating VIX API into v. Sphere API is a great decision VMware made for its v. Sphere 5. 0 release. Instead of working on two separate APIs, you now have one to deal with.
It also solves the portability issue of VIX APIs which is tied to a specific platform – VIX has three versions for Windows, 3. Linux, and 6. 4- bit Linux. In the same week of v. Sphere 5. 0 release, I added the support of v.
Sphere 5 in v. Sphere Java API. Later on, I wrote an article on how VIX is implemented in the open source API. The article did not include any sample but high level introduction, design decisions, and a few API signatures. Bothered by SLOW Web UI to manage v. Sphere? Want to manage ALL your VMware v.
Centers, AWS, Azure, Openstack, container behind a SINGLE pane of glass? Want to search, analyze, report, visualize VMs, hosts, networks, datastores, events as easily as Google the Web? Here is the first of a few samples I write to illustrate the usage of the APIs. In the future, I will create a higher level abstraction as part of the API, like what you can get from Power. CLI’s Invoke- Vm.
Script cmdlet. Check out the sample using the higher level API)The follow sample is a simple VI Java code that runs a Power. Shell script in a Windows guest OS. Note that the path of the Power.
Shell on your machine could be different. Please verify it and the Power. Shell script file before you run the program.
To find it out, you can go to the guest OS and click on the VMware Tools icon on the taskbar. It should tell you the versions and build number. In my case, the version is 8. Alternatively, you can right click on the virtual machine and select “Install/Upgrade VMware Tools.” The wizard will guide you through the installation or upgrading. Now you’ve seen the code and hopefully have run the program. You may ask, “Wait a second, how can I get the standard output of the command I run remotely?”A great question indeed!
Unfortunately there is no direct support for you to get back the output other than the process ID. But we techies are creative at problem solving. The workaround is to redirect the output of the command to a file, and then download the file. Please stay tuned for next sample on how to download a file from a guest OS.
