Add-VMDependencyOnCLXEVA
SYNOPSIS:
Adds a resource of type "Cluster Extension EVA for VM Management" to the list of resources on
which a particular "Virtual Machine Configuration" type of resource depends, using AND as the
connector, within a Failover Cluster. Existing dependencies remain in the list. Dependency of VM
configuration on CLX ensures that a virtual machine comes online only after CLX resource has come
online.
SYNTAX:
Add-VMDependencyOnCLXEVA [-CSVDiskName <String>] [<CommonParameters>]
Description:
This cmdlet creates a dependency of "Virtual Machine Configuration" that is residing on a cluster
shared volume onto a resource of type "Cluster Extension EVA for VM Management."
The cmdlet first tries to find out if there is already a resource of type "Cluster Extension EVA for
VM Management" in a VM role.
If it is existing, the cmdlet verifies whether "Virtual Machine Configuration" resource in the VM
role is already dependent on the resource of type "Cluster Extension EVA for VM Management".
If the "Virtual Machine Configuration" resource is already dependent on the CLX resource, the
cmdlet moves to the next VM configuration on a CSV. In the absence of dependency on the existing
CLX resource, the cmdlet creates a dependency of "Virtual Machine Configuration" resource in
the VM role on resource of type "Cluster Extension EVA for VM Management".
If there is no resource of type "Cluster Extension EVA for VM Management" in the VM role, then
the cmdlet first creates a resource of type "Cluster Extension EVA for VM Management" in the VM
role and then makes the "Virtual Machine Configuration" resource in the VM role dependent on
the newly created resource of type "Cluster Extension EVA for VM Management".
A virtual machine configuration resource is brought online after the "Cluster Extension EVA for VM
Management" type resource that it depends on comes online. Similarly, virtual machine configuration
resource is taken offline before the "Cluster Extension EVA for VM Management" type resource
that it depends on goes offline.
PARAMETERS:
-CSVDiskName <String>
