I’m in the middle of preparing for a migration from VI3 to vSphere 4 just now (hence the lack of substantial updating on this site).

As part of this process, I was just about to start writing  a script to export our customisation specifications, when Arnim van Lieshout’s post appeared in my VMware Planet V12N RSS feed.

Export and import customization profiles using Powershell | Arnim van Lieshout.

It failed on a couple of customisations, but by adding…

Write-Host Exporting $CustomizationProfile.name

…after the ForEach loop started, it was easy to see that it was customisations with “/” and “*” characters that were causing the errors.
