system path to include this location.
3. The client machine used to access the remote vSphere 5.1 and updates machine must also
have the vSphere CLI esxcli command line tool installed and must be accessible through
the system path. Ensure that the client machine location is included in the path.
4. Use the following tool and associated command-line parameters to perform the creation and
retrieval of the report:
hpaduesxi --server=<server_ip_address> --user=<username>
--password=<password> <targetfile.zip>
Example Usage:
hpaduesxi --server=10.12.132.5 --user=root --password=root.123
myreport.zip
The hpaduesxi application uses the supplied parameters to remotely obtain the report from your
target vSphere 5.1 and updates machine and saves the data into the target zip file. The zip file
can then be opened with any third-party zip application or with the unzip command under Linux.
The hpaduesxi application also contains onboard help which can be obtained by typing hpaduesxi
with no parameters.
