  • 1.  kickstart and setting FT on vmk#

    Posted Nov 24, 2009 06:31 PM

    I am currently setting up a kickstart file to build/install ESX4.0u1. I am using a lot from my 3.5 builds. One aspect I use to automatically set the vMotion nic is a line similiar to:

    /usr/bin/vmware-vim-cmd hostsvc/vmotion/vnic_set vmk0

    or

    /usr/bin/vimsh -n -e "/hostsvc/vmotion/vnic_set vmk0"

    Anyone know of a similiar way to set the Fault Tolerance "check box" via command line/ESX build?

    Thank you,

    Charlie
