Reading and Writing Remote Disk
The
DoEdit()
function is similar for remote managed virtual disk on ESXi hosts, but beforehand you must call VixDiskLib_Connect()
with authentication credentials instead of passing NULL parameters.if (appGlobals.isRemote) { cnxParams.vmxSpec = NULL; cnxParams.serverName = appGlobals.host; cnxParams.credType = VIXDISKLIB_CRED_UID; cnxParams.creds.uid.userName = appGlobals.userName; cnxParams.creds.uid.password = appGlobals.password; cnxParams.port = appGlobals.port; } VixError vixError = VixDiskLib_Init(1, 0, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL); CHECK_AND_THROW(vixError); vixError = VixDiskLib_Connect(&cnxParams, &appGlobals.connection);
