The Repository contains Windows PowerShell Desired State Configuration (DSC) Resources for managing VC and ESXi settings.

Desired State Configuration for VMware

Overview

The Desired State Configuration for VMware project contains VMware.vSphereDSC and VMware.PSDesiredStateConfiguration PowerShell modules.

The VMware.vSphereDSC module is a collection of DSC Resources. This module includes DSC resources that simplify the management of vCenter and ESXi settings, with a simple declarative language.

The VMware.vSphereDSC module contains resources for:

• Datacenters, Folders and Clusters
• Standard and distributed switches and portgroups and network migration between them
• Host network adapters
• Datastores (VMFS and NFS) and storage adapters
• Host accounts, roles and permissions
• vCenter and Host settings

The VMware.PSDesiredStateConfiguration module provides an alternative in-language way to compile and execute DSC Configurations. It does not require the use of LCM and supports PowerShell 7.0.
