GetPlaceholderDatastores
Gets the list of all configured placeholder datastores.
Synopsis
@optional PlaceholderDatastoreInfo[] getPlaceholderDatastores()
PlaceholderDatastoreInfo
has the following fields:
Field | Description |
|---|---|
fault | The list of errors for this datastore. If this
property is not empty, this datastore can not be used as a
placeholder datastore. |
PlaceholderDatastoreInfo
extends
DatastoreInfo
. It has the following fields:
Field | Description |
|---|---|
key | reference to the actual vim.Datastore object
in VC. |
capacity | The total capacity of this datastore in
bytes. |
freeSpace | The amount of free space in bytes available on
this datastore. |
reservedSpace | The amount of additional storage space in
bytes on this datastore that could potentially be used by all
virtual machines on this datastore. A non-zero value in this
field is associated with virtual machines having Thin
Provisioned disks. |
type | The type of the file system on this datastore,
such as VMFS, NFS or CIFS. @see
vim.host.FileSystemVolume#type |
@optional ComputeResourceInfo[]
visibleTo | The list of hosts and clusters that can access
this datastore. If a cluster is included in this list, it means
that this datastore is accessible to all hosts in this cluster.
In most cases this list can not be empty. The only reason for
this field to be optional is to be able to return placeholder
datastores that have become invalid because there are no
clusters or hosts that can see this datastore. This could
happen, for example, if the user were to add a host to a cluster
and this host could not see some of the datastores that were
previously visible to all hosts in the cluster. |
ComputeResourceInfo
has the following properties:
Field | Description |
|---|---|
key | The reference to the actual
vim.ComputeResource object in VC. Hosts
will be represented by vim.ComputeResource with
a single vim.HostSystem in it. Clusters will be
represented by
vim.ClusterComputeResource . |
DatastoreInfo
and
ComputeResourceInfo
extend ObjectInfo
which has the following properties:
Field | Description |
|---|---|
name | The name of the object. |
status | The status of the object, such as green, red
or yellow. @see vim.ManagedEntity.Status |
