AssociateVms

This method associates one or more virtual machines with a vSphere Replication (VR) protection group. Before you can protect a virtual machine, it must first be associated with a protection group.

Synopsis

void associateVms(vim.VirtualMachine[] vms)
vms[]
is an array of Virtual Machine objects to associate with.

Faults

  • InvalidArgument - If the list of virtual machines is empty or null.
  • InvalidState, if a specified VM was already associated with another group.
  • RuntimeFault
  • vim.fault.ConcurrentAccess, if another operation has modified the object and the change version no longer matches.
  • vmodl.fault.NotSupported, if this protection group is not a VR group.
Example for AssociateVms
srmPortType.associateVms( ManagedObjectReference _this, List < ManagedObjectReference > vms); Where ManagedObjectReference _this = _protectionGroupRef; where _protectionGroupRef can be taken from: SrmServiceInstanceContent content = _srmPortType.retrieveContent(_svcRef); ManagedObjectReference _protectionRef = content.getProtection(); List < ManagedObjectReference > groups = srmPortType.listProtectionGroups(_protectionRef); _protectionGroupRef = groups.get(0);
