[one-users] OpenNebula 4.4(?)

Strange -- I updated to PS3 , and when I run their scripts in win2k7 r2 -- it states clearly it doenst understand the variables -- 

Could it be a difference between windows versions?

Hi Michael,

we did no changes to context.sh
We only enable contextualisation and use the WIn startup and powershell wrapper script from ieeta.pt

This is the context.sh from a Win8 VM (I modified the HOSTNAME to make it public):

# Context variables generated by OpenNebula DISK_ID='1'
ETH0_DNS='10.175.4.11 10.175.4.12'
ETH0_GATEWAY='10.175.16.1'
ETH0_IP='10.175.24.28'
ETH0_MASK='255.255.240.0'
ETH0_NETWORK='10.175.16.0'
FILES_DS='/var/lib/one/datastores/2/6d59d36aaac67c69f1ceb0ce48ad9e30:'\''SetupCompleteWin8.cmd'\'' /var/lib/one/datastores/2/036c86e3eb2ba86910c5494471ff743d:'\''startupWin8.vbs'\'' /var/lib/one/datastores/2/d1abbf10eda3863726d9911df4d0868c:'\''one-contextWin8.ps1'\'' '
HOSTNAME='win8martin.domain.com'
NETWORK='YES'
TARGET='hdb'

Note: our Linux systems are running in english only.

- Martin
