VMware Labs has released a new Fling - Power Actions
Power Actions is a remote plug-in that enables you to run PowerCLI scripts from the vSphere Client, and implement custom actions on the vSphere inventory objects.
Power Actions integrates the PowerCLI in the vSphere client to provide automation capabilities for the standard vSphere management client. Power Actions is a remote plug-in that enables you to leverage the PowerCLI capabilities from the vSphere Client.
For example, as an administrator, you can define a new action for a virtual machine object by writing a PowerCLI script that accepts a virtual machine as a parameter and saving it into a script/content library.
You can then share it with other users within your company who can execute the script as-is, without requiring PowerShell knowledge. Power Actions is available for download as a virtual appliance from the VMware Flings website and can be installed through the vSphere client plug-in installer.
