Hi,
Trying to do the simplest task of renaming a CIvApp with PowerCLI.
$civapp = Get-CIvApp "Test" $newname = $civapp.Name + "_OLD" Set-CIVApp -vApp $civapp -Name $newname Set-CIVApp : 8/6/2013 5:50:25 PM Set-CIVApp Interrupting the reading of an HTTP request, as its body is too long: >524288 bytes At line:1 char:11 + Set-CIVApp <<<< -vApp $a -Name $ren + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Set-CIVApp], VimException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Core_BaseCmdlet_UnknownError,VMware.VimAutomation.Cloud.Commands.Cmdlets.SetCIVApp
Also tried extensiondata property:
$civapp = Get-CIvApp "Test" $civapp.ExtensionData.Name = $civapp.ExtensionData.Name + "_OLD" $civapp.ExtensionData.UpdateServerData() Exception calling "UpdateServerData" with "0" argument(s): "Interrupting the reading of an HTTP request, as its body is too long: >524288 bytes" At line:1 char:34 + $a.ExtensionData.UpdateServerData <<<< () + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [], MethodInvocationException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : DotNetMethodException
I also tried setting the description of the CIvApp as per the example but that errors too.
-------------- Example 1 -------------- C:\PS>$myVApps = Get-CIVApp -Name 'MyVApp*' $myVApps | Set-CIVApp -Description 'This is one of my VApps.' Retrieves all vApp with names starting with MyVapp and changes their descriptions to "This is one of my vApps."
Any ideas? Is my vApp too large? 26 VM's.How do I narrow down the "Update Server Data" to only update what I want and not all the networking sections etc...?
