Submodules

com.vmware.vcenter.compute.policies_client module

The com.vmware.vcenter.compute.policies_client module provides classes for managing compute policies.

class com.vmware.vcenter.compute.policies_client.Capabilities(config)

Bases: vmware.vapi.bindings.stub.VapiInterface

The Capabilities class provides methods to manage compute policy capabilities. The description of the capability provides information about the intent of a policy based on this capability. A capability provides a type to create a policy (see com.vmware.vcenter.compute_client.Policies.create()). A capability also provides a type that describes the information returned when retrieving information about a policy (see com.vmware.vcenter.compute_client.Policies.get()). Warning: This class is available as technical preview. It may be changed in a future release.

Parameters

config (vmware.vapi.bindings.stub.StubConfiguration) – Configuration to be used for creating the stub.

class Info(name=None, description=None, create_spec_type=None, info_type=None)

Bases: vmware.vapi.bindings.struct.VapiStruct

The Capabilities.Info class contains information about a compute policy capability. Warning: This class is available as technical preview. It may be changed in a future release.

Tip

The arguments are used to initialize data attributes with the same names.

Parameters
