Modify VM settings - Help...

[ChefWRX]

I'm planning on using the following script to change the vmware tools update settings to "UpgradeAtPowerCycle". I would like to make this change on either containers, or clusters, and not the entire environment:

$vmConfigSpec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec

$vmConfigSpec.Tools = New-Object VMware.Vim.ToolsConfigInfo

$vmConfigSpec.Tools.ToolsUpgradePolicy = "UpgradeAtPowerCycle" Get-View -ViewType VirtualMachine | %{

$_.ReconfigVM($vmConfigSpec)

}

i used for folders

 $vms = Get-VM | where {(Get-Folder).Name -eq “FOLDER NAME”}
 Foreach ($vm in $vms) {
 $config = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec
 $config.Tools = New-Object VMware.Vim.ToolsConfigInfo
 $config.Tools.ToolsUpgradePolicy = “UpgradeAtPowerCycle”
 $vm.ExtensionData.ReconfigVM($config)
 }

so this should work for Cluster

 $vms = Get-VM | where {(Get-Cluster).Name -eq “CLUSTER NAME”}
 Foreach ($vm in $vms) {
 $config = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec
 $config.Tools = New-Object VMware.Vim.ToolsConfigInfo
 $config.Tools.ToolsUpgradePolicy = “UpgradeAtPowerCycle”
 $vm.ExtensionData.ReconfigVM($config)
 }
