Hi ,
I am trying to start a vmware from a stax job .
>From the command line of a windows machine we can start a vmware by doing
a:
"C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Workstation\vmrun.exe" start
"C:\vmware\RedHat\rhel3.vmx"
Considering if i want to start the vmware "C:\vmware\RedHat\rhel3.vmx".
Now i want the same to be done from a stax job.
The machine from where i am trying to start the vmware is staf-stax active
i.e staf runs here .
Now the code i use is (I am not using the function which is there in the
STAF faq ,i am simply trying to use the command to start the vmware.)
somemachine = machine where staf and stax is running already.
<script>
vmware_name = ['"c:\\vmware\RedHat\rhel3.vmx"']
vmware_root = '"c:\\Program Files\VMware\\VMware Workstation\\vmrun.exe"'
machList = ['somemachine']
start = 'start'
</script>
<paralleliterate var="machName" in="machList" indexvar="i">
<process name="'Starting VMware on machine %s.....' % machName">
<location>machName</location>
<command mode="'shell'">'%s %s %s ' % (vmware_root, start,
vmware_name) </command>
</process>
</paralleliterate>
Kindly suggest any improvements so that i can start the vmware just by
giving the command.
Regards
Sangram
