Well, I have been pretty busy lately, but wanted to share something I had done for my lab.<\/p>\n

I really liked Alan Renouf’s Local Plugin Creator<\/strong><\/a> script.\u00a0 So I had to try putting the StorCenter URL into my vSphere Client Home screen.<\/p>\n

After a little Google Image Search for Iomega<\/strong><\/a>, I found a logo.\u00a0 So I created two .PNG files to be placed on my vCenter server.<\/p>\n

\"iomega_logo_32x\"<\/a>
\niomega_logo_32x.png<\/p>\n

\"iomega_logo_16x\"<\/a> iomega_logo_16x.png<\/p>\n

I saved these files to c:Program FilesVMwareInfrastructuretomcatwebappsROOT<\/p>\n

Next, I used Alan’s Local Plugin Creator to generate the following XML:<\/p>\n

<scriptConfiguration version=”1.0.0″>
\n<key>Iomega<\/key>
\n<description>Storcenter<\/description>
\n<vendor>Iomega<\/vendor>
\n<view parent=”Inventory.Global”>
\n<title locale=”en”>Storcenter<\/title>
\n<url>http:\/\/storcenter.jasemccarty.com\/<\/url>
\n<icon>https:\/\/vcenter.jasemccarty.com:8443\/iomega_logo_32x.png<\/icon>
\n<iconSmaller>https:\/\/vcenter.jasemccarty.com:8443\/iomega_logo_16x.png<\/iconSmaller>
\n<\/view>
\n<\/scriptConfiguration><\/p>\n

I created a folder called Iomega in C:Program FilesVMwareInfrastructureVirtual Infrastructure ClientPlugins and saved the XML as Iomega.xml<\/p>\n

I then relaunched my vSphere Client, and there was my new local plugin, pointing at the web management URL for my StorCenter.
