What is Onyx?

Onyx generates code to help you solve your toughest automation challenges.

See the full demonstration with a complete explanation of how to use Onyx at VMworld -- session VM2241. Bring your business card if you want to be 1 of ten beta (maybe we should make that alpha) testers.

Getting the tool working is a bit, er, challenging shall we say at the moment. The ideal beta testers are people who are willing to work through the difficult first phases and then give the tool hell after that. Probably need a good 4-8 hours to get going in the present form (though this will get a lot better later).

This looks good Carter, is the aim of this to provide a button in vcenter so that you can see powershell behind commands. One of the things I like about Microsoft SCVMM is the fact you can see the powershell behind each command. This would be a great help to VMware CLI newbies who want to automate but cannot find the time to learn how to write scripts from scratch. Great work though, look forward to seeing more!!

This is a really cool tool. How about giving out betas to the first commenter of the video. It looks like might take Powershell admin'ing the last mile in assisting to know what to change and how to change it at least individually.
