How to edit settings of a VM using command line

$

Hi,

 

We do change the settings of a created vm by selecting the edit settings menu item of the popup menu (by right clicking on the VM). We can then modify the settings there. I was wondering whether we can change the properties of a VM with commands like vim-cmd, vihostupdate, etc. To help imagine, suppose we don't have the vsphere client. So we want to be able to do the same set of operations without the vsphere by using the commands provided by the ESX OS. Is this possible. It is for automation so we are not supposed just to go ahead and change the .vmx file using vi.

 

Thanks
