Experts,
In my solution i have some (over a 100) VMs that i need to change their harddisk type from IDE to SCSI. In order to do that, i need to go into every VM vmdk file and change ddb.adapter = “ide.” to “lsilogic.”. Then remove the old IDE harddisk and add a new SCSI harddisk. In order to do that, i will need to login into every host navigate to the VM vmdk file and manually replace the attribute and save the file. Is there a fast way to do that using powerCli that can change/replace the adapter type with a script on the fly without having to download/update all the vmdk files locally on my PC? I have been reading a lot of posts here but none seems to accomplish what i'm looking for. This was the closest but the change is not on the fly (What is the best way to change the Virtual Device Node of a HardDisk from IDE to SCSI? ) .. help is appreciated.
