基于VMware vSphere 5.0的服务器虚拟化实践(8)

【VMware vSphere 5.0服务器虚拟化实践系列(8) ：使用脚本PowerCLI部署虚拟机】

在上一篇博文中我使用克隆及模板的方式来部署虚拟机，但不管是从模板部署还是对虚拟机进行克隆，都只能一对一，不能一对多。如果需要部署N台虚拟机的话，两种方法都不是那么有效。那么是否有更快捷的方法呢？当然有，用脚本PowerCLI。接下来我就用PowerCLI来同时部署多台虚拟机。

Step1：自定义虚拟机模板

Registration information: name company Computer name: Use the virtual machine name (important) Product key: Didn’t need it because I’ve configured KMS Password: Company default local administrator password, selected: Automatically login as the Administrator: 2 Timezone: GMT+0100 (Amsterdam) Runonce: none Network: Typical settings Workgroup or Domain: selected to auto join the domain with domain administrator credentials + domain name (important) Operation System Options: Selected: Generate New Security ID (SID)

Step2：VM模板设置

Hard disk: 40 GB with only OS configured with company standard policy VMware tools: Latest, this must be installed for Specification Template and NIC Network: VMXNET3 (needed VMware Tools for driver)

Step3：脚本保存(saved as: FileserverDeploy.ps1)

-vmhost = Target host;
-Name = Name of new VM;
-Template: From wich template you want to deploy the new VM;
-Datastore: Target datastore to place the new VM;
-OSCustomizationspec = Wich “prep” template you want to deploy the new VM;
