Powercli Script to update From VMware.Powercli to VCF.Powercli

I made a little script that does the following:

Check if VMware or VCF PowerCLI is installed and is outdated
Check if VCF.Powercli is the latest installed
If VMware.Powercli is installed upgrade to VCF.Powercli
If VCF Powercli is installed but not the latest version upgrade to VCF to the latest version

You can download the script on my github repository: https://github.com/WardVissers/VCF-Public/blob/main/Check%20Installed%20VCF-Powercli%20Version.ps1

Setting Up KubeDoom on Kubernetes: A Beginner’s Guide

I followed William Lam’s article about MS-A2 VCF 9.0 Lab: Configuring vSphere Kubernetes Service (VKS)

I don’t have much experience with Kubernetes but wanted to try some new things.

The only container that I have running is Home Assistant on Docker.

Got to try to get Kubedoom working. So I did with the following steps.
Maybe in the near future I’ll try to add more games: Retro DOS Games on Kubernetes

Finally having a Kubernetes cluster version 1.32, which was required for running KubeDoom.

Download kubectl

mkdir d:\kubectl

Extract the downloaded ZIP file and place both executables (kubectl.exe and kubectl-vsphere.exe) in a folder such as: d:\kubectl

.\kubectl version –client

mkdir .kube

cd .kube

New-Item config -type file

.\kubectl vsphere login –server=https://31.31.0.7 –insecure-skip-tls-verify

kubectl –kubeconfig=kubernetes-cluster-jzvx-kubeconfig.yaml get pods

kubectl –kubeconfig=kubernetes-cluster-jzvx-kubeconfig.yaml apply -f kubedoom.yaml

kubectl –kubeconfig=kubernetes-cluster-jzvx-kubeconfig.yaml -n kubedoom get svc

The password to Kubedoom is idbehold

Upgrade VCF to 9.0.1: Setting Up an Offline Depot on Ubuntu

Upgrade VMware VCF 9.0.1: Essential Setting Up an Offline Depot on Ubuntu Instructions

If you are planning to upgrade to latest release of VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) 9.0.1 and you what to install/upgrade you need to have a offline depot.

I had some struggle with the VCF Fleet upgrades. I thought the VCF installer Offline Depot was sufficient. I seems not.

William Liam did a nice explaining about the options: VCF Software Depot Structure Deep Dive for Install & Upgrade. Which confirms my struggle.

Sow I build my own offline depot

Prerequisites

First, download the required bundle files from the Broadcom VMware portal. This includes:

vcf-9.0.1.0-offline-depot-metadata.zip (mandatory)
vcf-download-tool-9.0.1.0.24962179.tar.gz (mandatory)

On the Depot Server (Ubuntu)

Sizing for the disk is minimal 100GB I used 200GB thin Provisiond

I did a Ubuntu install on a 200GB disk (Partition without lvm)

Login

Sudo passwd root

Vim /etc/ssh/sshd_config

if the following line exists, possibly commented out (with a # in front):

PermitRootLogin

Then change it to the following, uncommenting if needed (remove the # in front):

PermitRootLogin yes

sudo service ssh restart

now you can login als root

Install Apache and tools

Sudo update

sudo apt install apache2 openssl apache2-utils unzip

Create a certificate config file

nano ~/vcf-openssl.cnf

Paste the following:

[ req ]

default_bits = 2048

prompt = no

default_md = sha256

distinguished_name = dn

x509_extensions = v3_req

[ dn ]

C = US

ST = CA

L = LA

O = TS

OU = IT

CN = flt-depot.wardhomelab.nl

emailAddress = a@b.c

[ v3_req ]

basicConstraints = CA:FALSE

keyUsage = digitalSignature, keyEncipherment

extendedKeyUsage = serverAuth

subjectAltName = @alt_names

[ alt_names ]

DNS.1 = flt-depot.wardhomelab.nl

IP.1 = 192.168.150.246

Replace the values with your organization’s details.

Now u should connect VCF to you offline depot

You want you upgrade to 9.0.1 ivm Edge Issue

Special thanks to vmtechnics for putting me in the right direction

Addressing Edge Server Issues in VCF 9.0 after a Shutdown

After shutting down the VCF 9.0 environment completely, I had 2 strange things.

I followed the shutdown order for the management domain.

Edge servers lost from NIC 2 and NIC 3 the network configuration
Edge Servers did not start, not correctly

I deployed a third edge server. Two new distributed port groups were created.

These are missing for the edge01a and edge01b servers. These should not be deleted/missing after shutdown.

Create a distributed port group with a VLAN trunk

Set NIC 2 and 3 to this network.

Edge Nodes’ Edge Cluster is running fine again 😊

I found this on the Daniel Kruger Blog: https://sdn-warrior.org/posts/vcf9-ms-a2-special/

This is a known issue with VCF 9.0.0: When an edge is created by the Setup Network Connectivity UI, the system-created dvpg consumed by the edge gets deleted when the edge is powered on after 24 hrs. The port group assigned to the NSX Edge uplink has disappeared, making it impossible to use the network through NSX Edge. You can find the release notes here.

Build my lab nested, but not enough resources to do a full upgrade to 9.0.1.
So I build the lab again, but physically. More about that later!

I love testing things; you learn so much!

MS-A2: How a Ubiquity Flex 2.5G skips the 10G check in VCF 9.X

VCF 9 and 9.0.1 require 10GB nic.

I use for my homelab the MS-A2 with the 2 x 10GbE Intel X710 SFP+ (NIC 1 & 2 from the left). It is silent and fast and have enough power to run VCF 9!

So I bought also the 10GbE SFP+ to Copper Transceiver

But when you connect the MS-A2 to USW Flex 2.5G switch on the switch side is 2.5G.

But on the VMware side is 10GB 😊

No need to do the following: Disable 10GbE NIC Pre-Check in the VCF 9.0 Installer or

Enhancement in VCF 9.0.1 to bypass vSAN ESA HCL & Host Commission 10GbE NIC Check

It working great! No need to buy expensive 10GB switch!

Running VCF 9 in a Nested Lab using vSAN ESA on a single host is that not great?

For the deployment I used a server that has 16 cores en 32 cores total and a lot of ram!

Installation on Nested ESX VM’s

For the nested ESX VMs I am using the generic ESX image. In my lab I’m using 4 nested ESX nodes for vSAN ESA (Minimum is needed is 3).

Ideally add 24 vCPUs to the nested ESX, but VCF Automation is capable of being deployed with 16 vCPUs
Check Expose hardware assisted virtualization to the guest OS under CPU
Add a NVME controller and connect disks to this controller if planning to use vSAN ESA (Don’t forget to remove the old Controller)
Add at least two VMXNET3 nics connected to the same network
Choose VMware ESXi 8.0 or later as the Guest OS version.
Change the IDE CD-ROM to SATA ROM (Failed to locate kickstart on Nested ESXi VM CD-ROM in VCF 9.0)

Config the 4 Host for vSAN ESA

To config the 4 Hosts for vSAN ESA I used my own powercli script where I blogged about here: Config vSAN ESA host or VCF ESA vSAN Host the easy way with Config-VSAN-ESA-VCF-Lab-Host Script

You can download the script HERE!

Installing the Vib works still great. No problem with ESA Pre-check: ✅

If you have problems check this great blog from William Lam: vSAN ESA Disk & HCL Workaround for VCF 9.0

VCF installer.

At first you have to deploy the VMware Cloud Foundation

The name of the installer is a little off: VCF-SDDC-Manager-Appliance-9.0.0.0.24703748.ova

Download token

If you don’t have a download token from the Broadcom support then it’s a little complicated. I won’t go into this in depth now but here is a nice article if you have a Synology Nas: VCF 9.0 Offline Depot using Synology

(Note: For any vExpert reading this… You need to claim your own domain name because build your profile is not working with a @hotmail.com or @gmail accounts, Noted by Broadcom)

I looks something like this!

10GBE Nic Pre-Check Issue

Next thing to do was: Disable 10GbE NIC Pre-Check in the VCF 9.0 Installer or this should also work: How to change the vmxnet3 link speed of a VM (Not tested)

Deployment

I have deployed the beta in a earlier state. For deployment I used the same json file to start with.

VCF Automation will deployed automatically that was only the change that I changed it

It’s running!

Performance running Nested!!

Above the screenshot from the host with de Nested VCF lab deployment it’s quite cpu intensive (2 x CPU 8cores / 16 Threads)

Optimalization

After the deployment I did three things
– On the vSAN ESA Cluster (Disable Auto Disk Claim) (Keep the warning away)
– On the NSX VM reduce the cpu reservation from 6000 🡪 2000 (It helps but not enough)
– VCF automation VM 24 cores to 16 cores.

NSX en VCF automation are really CPU intensive.

I had deployed also two Edge servers but the server did not like that. Edges are also CPU intensive.

I am thinking about adding MS-01 or MS-A2 for splitting some load.

Config vSAN ESA host or VCF ESA vSAN Host the easy way with Config-VSAN-ESA-VCF-Lab-Host Script.

William Lam created the vSAN ESA HCL hardware mock VIB for Nested ESXi.
It works great for vSAN ESA or for VCF vSAN ESA Nested nodes.

You can download the needed vib here

A whale ago I found a easy way to the deployment of a VMware SDDC based on vSAN ESA: VCF automated lab deployment with vSAN ESA

It works great. I a few hours you have a working VCF management domain on vSAN ESA.

Sow what about the script

For the Workload domain domain I created de nested ESXi vm’s manually .
And I did some testing for VCF 9 which I created the nested ESXi host also manually.

Configure by hand takes a lot of time. So I did some scripting and I used some code
from: VCF automated lab deployment with vSAN ESA

So I created a script that does the following:

Login on DHCP address en configure a Fixt IP address based on DNS name
Disable IPv6
Rename the local datastore to a uniek name with the name of the host
Configure NTP
Install the vSAN ESA VIB mock en restart vSAN mgmt.
Generate new certificate for the host with the correct domain name in it.
Enable KB372309 (10GB ethernet for vSAN ESA)

It works great for ESXi Nested nodes (ESXi 8.0u3b and ESXi9.X beta)

You can find the script HERE!!

Deploying Windows VMs with Terraform and Packer

A whale ago, I started using Packer for creating Windows Templates for using in my home lab.
I blogged about it here: Windows Server 2025 “Preview” deployment with Packer

So now I want to deploy a template with Terraform, which was created earlier by Packer.

First, we need to ensure we have the Terraform downloaded and the vSphere provider Initialized.

Install Terraform: You can download it from the official Terraform website and follow the installation instructions for your operating system.

I made my life a little easier to create a PowerShell script that downloads the latest version: Download Terraform.ps1

Initialize Your Terraform Configuration: Create a directory for your Terraform configuration files. Inside this directory, create a `main.tf` file (or any `.tf` file) where you will define your provider and other configurations.
Define the vSphere Provider in Your main.tf: Add the following block to your Terraform configuration file to specify the use of the vSphere provider:

terraform {

required_providers {

vsphere = {

source = “HashiCorp/vsphere”

version = “> 2.11”

}

provider “vsphere” {

user = vcenter_username

password = vcenter_password

vsphere_server = vcenter_server

# If you have a self-signed cert

allow_unverified_ssl = true

}

Replace ”vcenter_username”, ” vcenter_password” , ”vcenter_server” with your actual vSphere credentials and server address.

Basic Terraform Commands

Terraform.ps1

# Go to the Terraform download folder

$terraformfolder = ‘d:\automation\terraform\’

Set-Location $terraformfolder

# Download Terraform plugins

.\terraform.exe init

# Test Run

.\terraform.exe plan

# Run Terraform

.\terraform.exe apply

# Clean Up what you created

.\terraform.exe Destroy

Initialize the Terraform Working Directory: Run the following command in your terminal from the directory where your Terraform configuration file is located:

terraform init

This command will download the vSphere provider and initialize your Terraform working directory. It sets up and downloads the necessary provider plugins for Terraform to interact with vSphere.

Verify the Installation: After running `terraform init`, you should see output indicating that the vSphere provider has been successfully installed. You can now proceed to create Terraform configurations to manage your vSphere resources.

Deploy a Template VM within vSphere

In this example, we are deploying a VM running Windows Server 2022.

Terraform Module Structure

variables.tf: Define the variables for the module.
main.tf: Contains the main configuration for the VM.
outputs.tf: Define the outputs for the module.

Variables.tf

variable “vsphere_user” {

default = “<your_vcenter_username_here>”

description = “vSphere username to use to connect to the environment – Default: administrator@vsphere.local”

}

variable “vsphere_password” {

default = “<your_vcenter_password_here>”

description = “vSphere vCenter password”

}

variable “vsphere_server” {

default = “<your_vcenter_here>”

description = “vSphere vCenter server”

}

variable “datacenter” {

default = “<your_datacenter_here>”

description = “vSphere datacenter”

}

variable “cluster” {

default = “<your_cluster_here>”

description = “vSphere cluster”

}

variable “network” {

default = “<vcenter_network>”

description = “vSphere network”

}

variable “datastore” {

default = “<your_destination_datastore_>”

description = “vSphere datastore”

}

variable “template” {

default = “<your_template_name_here>”

description = “Template VM”

}

variable “customization_specifications” {

default = “<vcenter_customization_specifications>”

description = “Customization Spec”

}

When you run “.\terraform plan” you do a test run to check your coding

When you run “.\terraform apply” build your virtual machine

Based on: https://vminfrastructure.com/2025/03/11/deploying-a-vm-using-terraform/

It works but it need some tweaking and fixing.
