Function New-UnityvCenter { <# .SYNOPSIS Adds the vCenter credentials and optionally discovers any ESXi host managed by that vCenter. .DESCRIPTION Discover vCenter servers on the network and optionnaly create a host configuration for multiple ESXi hosts managed by a single vCenter server. For any discovered vCenters, you can enable or disable access for any ESXi host managed by the vCenter. After you associate a vCenter server configuration with a VMware datastore, the datastore is available to any ESXi hosts associated with the vCenter host configuration. The vCenter credentials are stored in the storage system. You need to have an active session with the array. .NOTES Written by Erwan Quelin under MIT licence - https://github.com/equelin/Unity-Powershell/blob/master/LICENSE .LINK https://github.com/equelin/Unity-Powershell .PARAMETER Session Specify an UnitySession Object. .PARAMETER Address FQDN or IP address of the VMware vCenter. .PARAMETER Username Specifies the username used to access the VMware vCenter. .PARAMETER Password Specifies the password used to access the VMware vCenter. .PARAMETER Description Specifies the description of the VMware vCenter server. .PARAMETER ImportHosts Specifies if hosts are automatically imported. .EXAMPLE New-UnityvCenter -Address 'vcenter.example.com' -Username 'admin' -Password 'Password123#' -ImportHosts Import a vCenter and all the associated hosts. #> [CmdletBinding(SupportsShouldProcess = $True,ConfirmImpact = 'High')] Param ( #Default Parameters [Parameter(Mandatory = $false,HelpMessage = 'EMC Unity Session')] $session = ($global:DefaultUnitySession | where-object {$_.IsConnected -eq $true}), #vCenter [Parameter(Mandatory = $true,Position = 0,ValueFromPipeline=$True,ValueFromPipelinebyPropertyName=$True,HelpMessage = 'The IP address of the vCenter server')] [String[]]$Address, [Parameter(Mandatory = $true,HelpMessage = 'The user name to access vCenter server')] [string]$Username, [Parameter(Mandatory = $true,HelpMessage = 'The password to connect to vCenter server')] [String]$Password, [Parameter(Mandatory = $false,HelpMessage = 'Description of the vCenter server')] [String]$Description, [Parameter(Mandatory = $false,HelpMessage = 'Specifies if hosts are automatically imported')] [Switch]$ImportHosts ) Begin { Write-Verbose "Executing function: $($MyInvocation.MyCommand)" } Process { Foreach ($sess in $session) { Write-Verbose "Processing Session: $($sess.Server) with SessionId: $($sess.SessionId)" Foreach ($a in $Address) { $recommendation = Get-UnityHostContainerReco -Session $Sess -Address $a -Username $Username -Password $Password # Creation of the body hash $body = @{} # serviceType parameter $body["serviceType"] = "$($recommendation.type)" # targetName parameter $body["targetName"] = "$($recommendation.containerName)" # targetAddress parameter $body["targetAddress"] = "$a" # username parameter $body["username"] = "$Username" # password parameter $body["password"] = "$Password" If ($PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('description')) { $body["description"] = $Description } If ($PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('ImportHosts')) { $body["potentialHosts"] = $recommendation.potentialHosts | Where-Object {$_.importOption -ne 2} } #Displaying request's body $Json = $body | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 10 Write-Verbose $Json If ($Sess.TestConnection()) { #Building the URI $URI = 'https://'+$sess.Server+'/api/types/hostContainer/instances' Write-Verbose "URI: $URI" if ($pscmdlet.ShouldProcess($a,"Add vCenter Server")) { #Sending the request $request = Send-UnityRequest -uri $URI -Session $Sess -Method 'POST' -Body $Body } Write-Verbose "Request status code: $($request.StatusCode)" If ($request.StatusCode -eq '201') { #Formating the result.
