We are trying automate shutdown VM listed in hyper -v using C# &WMI?

We are trying to automate shutdown VM listed in hyper-V using C# WMI? I think there is difference between VM shutdown and VM turnoff?I got the requeststate change value for turnoff(that is 3), what is the requeststate change value to shutdown VM?
Thanks in advance.

"shut down" attempts to trigger a clean shutdown of the VM by using the Integration Components to signal the OS in the VM to cleanly shut down.  If the ICs are not available or that times out, then the VM is Powered Off.
"turn off" simply hits the power switch of the VM.  As if the power cord was pulled.  This is a hard down state, and generally one we don't want to see.

    there is no forced use of LR5 and your LR4 will remain in place and active. Should you decide to use LR5 it will try to,import your catalogs.

  • After trying to run the iTunes automatic update, I got this "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable." Click OK to try again,or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'itunes.msi"

    After trying to run the iTunes automatic update, I got this box on my pc "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'iTunes.msi" in the box below.. I ran a search for the file, and entered that into the box, to no avail. Then I launched iTunes and clicked on 'check for updates', and was told I had the latest version 11.0.1 I think it is. So, any clue on what to do? Thanks for any and all help.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Invalid data has been used to update the list item. The field you are trying to update may be read only.

    Trying to follow Serge Luca's Step by Step Tutorial. Creating Workflows for Windows Sharepoint Services and MOSS2007.  http://sergeluca.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!E8A06D5F2F585013!859.entry
    I have an onWorkflowActivated, followed by an ifElse condition and a log to history.
    In the IfElse, each branch has a code segment, that trys to update the status column in the list that the workflow is attached to.
    private void Authorize_ExecuteCode(object sender, EventArgs e)
    // tried serveral methods
    WorkflowProperties.Item["Status"] = "Automatically Approved";
    // tried all of the following (one at a time)
    item.update();
    WorkflowProperties.Item.Update();
    WorkflowProperties.Item.SystemUpdate();
    //tried this as well.
    Microsoft.SharePoint.SPListItem item = WorkflowProperties.Item;
    item["Status"] = "Automatically Approved";
    item.Update() ;
    On the update call I keep getting "Invalid data has been used to update the list item. The field you are trying to update may be read only."
    Could someone explain how to update "Status" column of the list item that the workflow is working on?
    Thank you very much.
    Bill
     

    Hi:
    you can do the following:
    add the following code to the workflow.xml file (under the MetaData section)
    Code Snippet
    <ExtendedStatusColumnValues>
    <StatusColumnValue>Branch1</StatusColumnValue>
    <StatusColumnValue>Branch2</StatusColumnValue>
    </ExtendedStatusColumnValues>
    then add 2 SetState activities one in each branch of the IfElse.
    for the code behind of setState1 (branch1) write the following code:
    Code Snippet
    state = Convert.ToInt32(SPWorkflowStatus.Max);
    for setState2 (branch2) write the following:
    Code Snippet
    state = Convert.ToInt32(SPWorkflowStatus.Max) + 1;
    where state is the variable assigned to the field State in the properties of the SetState(design lever), or instead of state u can use the following code:
    Code Snippet
    ((SetState)sender).State
    where sender is the object sent through the function parameter.
    hope this answered your question

    Try some thing like below,
    your data value that needs to be update should be in this format "ID of the lookup";#"Title of the Lookup" 
    For example,
    listItem["Product_x0020_Number"]
    = "1;#iPhone";
    listItem["Product_x0020_Number"]
    = "2;#Mobile";

  • HT1660 My itunes library has automatically started to list my songs alphabetically.  I do not want this.  How do I change it so that when albums come up, the songs are listed in the order of the imported album, NOT alphabetically.

    My itunes library has automatically started to list my songs alphabetically.  I do not want this.  How do I change it so that when albums come up, the songs are listed in the order of the imported album, NOT alphabetically.

    For the missing Artists on your iPod, make sure their tracks in iTunes are not marked as "Part of a compilation" in iTunes. You can do this by highlighting the track, right->clicking on them and choosing "Get Info" from the shortcut menu. When the window pops up, head over to the Info tab and make sure there is NO tick mark next to this option in the lower right hand corner. Lastly, sync the updated changes to your iPod.

  • What Raw camera files are supported by Aperture Ver 3.6.  I have tried to file a list of compatible camera models, but as yet can't find one.

    What Raw camera files are supported by Aperture Ver 3.6.  I have tried to file a list of compatible camera models, but as yet can't find one.  My OS is OS X Yosemite 10.10.1.  I have recently bought a Canon 7D MkII and have found Adobe Lightroom does not as yet support the 7D MkII.  So I though Aperture may support the 7D MkII because Yosemite 10.10.1 now does.

    Hi Folk,
    I just found the answer to my question.  Yes it is supported with OS X Yosemite 10.10.1.  See the link below and the ***** Note at the bottom of the list.

    I deleted my iMovie from computer and from my purchases list in AppStroe. When I'm trying to download it again from App Store a pop up window comes up and says: "These apps were already assigned to your Apple ID and are available in your Purchases list". Please help me to reinstall it.

    If new versions of iPhoto and the other iLife applications (iMovie and GarageBand) were purchased by the previous owner from the Mac App Store, then they will be locked to the previous owner's Apple ID and cannot be transferred to you. You will have to re-purchase them under your own Apple ID.
    If this is an older MBA that came with Snow Leopard or an earlier version of Mac OS X, though, the system would have come with an installation disk that included the iLife applications, a disk which the seller should have provided to you. Those iLife applications would be older versions, of course, and may or may not work in Lion depending on how old they are.

  • ILOM on X4x00 - temperature monitoring snmp, automatic shutdown

    Hello,
    we run some X4100/X4200 servers. I want to monitor temperatures via ILOM's snmp interface. Unfortunately I get all kind of information with snmpwalk like sensor typ, hysteresis, unit, .... except the current sensor readings. Did anybody succeed in reporting temperatur sensor readings via snmp with ILOM ? We run ILOM firmware 1.0, build 6464.
    Additionally I need to verify that some automatic shutdown happens once a system gets too hot. To test I would like to lower the temperature sensor threshold. How can I do this, how can I lower the temperature thresholds in ILOM?
    Any help is greatly apreciated, with kind regards,
    Heinrich

    I'm trying to get thermal shutdowns to happen, too, for a cluster of X4100s managed with N1SM. I don't use SNMP, though. I've found that the ILOMs have good support for IPMI. e.g.
    echo changeme > changeme
    ipmitool -u root -f changeme -H 192.168.1.20 sensor list
    I can set the sensor thresholds with ... sensor thresh fp.t_amb unr 33
    Thresholds set this way don't stick across power-cycling the ILOM, so I'll probably set up a cron job to set them.
    The machine does a hard shutdown a few seconds after a sensor exceeds it's non-recoverable threshold. It never seems to shut down or signal the OS with ACPI or anything when the critical or non-critical (warning) thresholds are exceeded. It does log it in the sensor log, and I think sends an IPMI alert, since N1SM configures the master machine as an alert target. (in the ILOM cli, show /SP/alerts, or something).
    ipmitool(1m) says that the soft shutdown command is done by having ACPI signal the OS that there is a "fatal overtemperature". I had assumed that that was what N1SM used to soft-power-off machines, but it seems that ipmitool ... power soft doesn't actually do anything to Solaris 10u1 amd64. So that's what I need to fix, I guess. I could try booting GNU/Linux from a CD to maybe see the ACPI events and make sure they're really being sent...
    Anyway, I'd love to hear how to get Solaris to soft shutdown on critical temps. If I don't figure it out soon, I'll just lower the "non-recoverable" thresholds, since I'm just running grid engine on nodes provisioned from a flash archive, so I don't need to worry too much about clean shutdowns.

  • The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable

    I just had to do an automatic upgrade of quicktime and now Itunes won't start at all. I tried to uninstall Itunes and it asked if I wanted to repair, so I said yes, then started to get the dreaded, "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable."...so I searched on here and went to the ad/delete prog folder and deleted Itunes and quicktime.  Then tried to download and reinstall Itunes.  Got a prompt that it needed Itunes.msi.  I found that file, but it didn't open and didn't resolve the issue.  So now I can't install quicktime, can't install Itunes.  I've got the the drive where the both were installed deleted any files I could find in the c: program files relating to quicktime and Itunes.  Downloaded the Itunes.exe file to a thumbdrive and started it from the thumbdrive thinking that it would have all the files it needed to do the install there, but still got the same message.  HELP!
    What else can I do?

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on 25 June 2010. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
    After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Set a delay for automatic shutdown of virtual machines

    Hallo,
    is there a way to set a delay for the automatic shutdown of the guests when the host is shutting down? Just like the automatic startup delay but for the shutdown. The simplest possibility would be to shutdown the guest in the opposite of the startup delay.
    I want to shutdown the Exchange Server first and then the rest - the virtual Domain Controller should be shutdown as the last server.

  • Automatic shutdown command does not show warning message

    I'm trying to automatically shutdown a computer remotely and I'm sending the following command:
    shutdown -h +2 "Shutting down in 2 minutes."
    I want users to be able to have a warning before the system shuts down.
    The machine is shutting down, but my message is not popping up.

    shutdown is a Unix shutdown command and it sends its shutdown message to terminal sessions.  Are you users using the terminal?
    Otherwise maybe you want to try getting help for an Applescript popup, or maybe using Growl which has a command line utility for generating growl messages on screen.
