Yeah, it's me. Music, fire 🔥, automation, etc. VMware vExpert 2012..2021

@nick_andreev_au @LucD22 Right -- that _could_ work in some scenarios (like hosts/VMs moved to new cluster). That case would involve add'l editing of JSON: there are vSphere managed obj. refs ("MORefs") used in the rules export, so you'd need to update MORefs for the cluster(s) in the JSON, too (whee!)

[Matt Boren @mtboren]

@SimonLong_ Noice. Seems like a fine starting place. AWS Lambda, PowerShell Core, choice PowerCLI module(s), probably some AWS Secrets Manager secrets (for securely storing/fetching creds to VMConAWS from λ), AWSLambdaPSCore for the packaging -- you go!

[Matt Boren @mtboren]

@SimonLong_ Yes and yes, to both "λ functions written in PowerShell" and "the AWS PS module for packaging λ code" (AWSLambdaPSCore). And, AWS now provides per-AWS-service PS modules (vs. a monolith), so λ pkg can be far smaller than before. What are some use cases you have so far?

[Matt Boren @mtboren]

@SimonLong_ Howdy, Simon -- there are other options, too. AWS does a fine job of providing a PS module for creating/deploying your Lambda PowerShell package 📦. See https://t.co/rUWO7FCnpQ, and particularly the "Deployment Package" section. I use that for my PS Lambda stuff. Enjoy!

[Matt Boren @mtboren]

Woo-hoo!

And, I added a visualization / demo of argument completing to the project's docs -- the .gif is worth at least a thousand words (included here). #vNugglets #rereply #enjoy https://t.co/P2GVKGY0HP

Finally! Glad to be able to easily, programmatically manage VMHost VMNIC <--> dvUplink config.

@lamw @SalilSuri It'll be _real_ nice. I gave, "VMw product ver/build info as web consumable data (JSON)" suggestion to TAM/BCS. Still waiting #RealNiceClark
