robina80 commented 1 year ago

hi all,

ive installed the vib file and i got the below so all good

esxcli software vib install -v /vmfs/volumes/datastore1/vghetto-ghettoVCB.vib -f Installation Result Message: Operation finished successfully. Reboot Required: false VIBs Installed: virtuallyGhetto_bootbank_ghettoVCB_1.0.0-0.0.0 VIBs Removed: VIBs Skipped:

but now where do i find the ghetto vcb script to start a backup?

thanks, rob

lamw commented 1 year ago

The script is installed under /opt/ghettovcb/bin and the config is stored under /opt/ghettovcb

You shouldn't have to know full path as its already in default path

thanks @lamw

how do i uninstall ghettovcb and install again from fresh?

lamw commented 1 year ago

To list all VIB installed: esxcli software vib list and to uninstall: esxcli software vib remove -n <vibname>

@lamw how do i see if the offline bundle is installed

lamw commented 1 year ago

same command as above :) These are basic ESXi commands BTW, has nothing to do with ghettoVCB

so even installing the zip is a vib is to uninstall the zip version exactly the same command

Yes, its just packaging format but ends up in same place
