Storage VMotion GUI

The Netherlands has been an apparent mecca of virtualization over the past few years, with extremely active forums and participation in the development community. Furthermore, a good percentage of visitors to this site live in the Netherlands.

Thankfully, the Dutch community has shared one of their recent solutions, a GUI for Storage VMotion.

Now why might this be useful?
Well for starters, Storage VMotion while released in VMware VI3.5, it is only available at the command line. From my own experience, the majority of VMware admins prefer GUI to CLI, so thankfully Alexander Gaiswinker has shared his creation.

Alexander Gaiswinker created a storage vmotion graphical user interface and posted it in the VMware community. Instructions: Install the VMware remote CLI (www.vmware.com/go/remotecli) on a Windows machine to the standard path (program files…) Save the file vms.pl into the C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware VI Remote CLI\bin directory. Save the svmotionGUI.exe somewhere on the machine. Double click it!
