This directory contains samples for vCenter virtual machine APIs:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Virtual machine Create, Read and Delete operations:
|
||
|
|
* Create a virtual machine with system provided defaults - create/create_default_vm.py
|
||
|
|
* Create a basic virtual machine - create/create_basic_vm.py
|
||
|
|
* Create a exhaustive virtual machine - create/create_exhaustive_vm.py
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Virtual machine power lifecycle (requires an existing virtual machine):
|
||
|
|
* Manage virtual machine power state - power.py
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Update virtual machine hardware settings (requires an existing virtual machine):
|
||
|
|
* Configure virtual SATA adapters of a virtual machine - hardware/adapter/sata.py
|
||
|
|
* Configure virtual SCSI adapters of a virtual machine - hardware/adapter/scsi.py
|
||
|
|
* Configure the booting settings for virtual machine - hardware/boot.py
|
||
|
|
* Configure the boot devices used by a virtual machine - hardware/boot_device.py
|
||
|
|
* Configure CD-ROM devices for a virtual machine - hardware/cdrom.py
|
||
|
|
* Configure CPU settings for a virtual machine - hardware/cpu.py
|
||
|
|
* Configure disk settings for a virtual machine - hardware/disk.py
|
||
|
|
* Configure virtual ethernet adapters of a virtual machine - hardware/ethernet.py
|
||
|
|
* Configure Floppy settings for a virtual machine - hardware/floppy.py
|
||
|
|
* Configure Memory settings of a virtual machine - hardware/memory.py
|
||
|
|
* Configure Parallel ports for a virtual machine - hardware/parallel.py

You have two options to run samples inside this package:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Run the whole sample suite which contains all vcenter samples using main.py
|
||
|
|
in vsphere.samples.vcenter.setup package.
|
||
|
|
Please see the README in the setup package for detailed steps.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Run an individual sample in an existing environment.
|
||
|
|
You can either pass the testbed settings through command line
|
||
|
|
arguments or specify them in setup.py in the setup package.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example, to run the create_default_vm sample in the vsphere.samples.vcenter.vm.create package:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* $ cd /path/to/VMware-vSphere-Automation-SDK-Python-<version>/client/bin
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Run the sample with the testbed settings specified in setup.py in a Linux machine:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ ./run_sample.sh ../samples/src/vsphere/samples/vcenter/vm/create/create_default_vm.py -v
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Or specify the credentials using command line parameters:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ ./run_sample.sh ../samples/src/vsphere/samples/vcenter/vm/create/create_default_vm.py -s <server> -u <username> -p <password> -v
