Changing object attributes in orchestrator web views

[vijay_sn821]

In orchestrator web views, Datastore object list shows attributes as shown in below screenshot; capacity/free space provide useful information.

Whereas, esx host object list shows below attributes, which are no so useful.

Is there any way to change the attributes listed in esx host object list? Is it possible to add host attributes such as used/free memory cpu?

The attributes you are seeing are so called 'finder properties'. They are defined in vCenter plug-in as part of the mapping between vCO Javascript objects (host system, datastore, etc) and the 'real' vCenter object accessible through vCenter API.

This mapping is processed at compile time and I don't think the end users are able to change/configure them later without making manual modifications to vCenter plug-in binaries (in VSO-INF\vso.xml file, to be precise). Such changes are doable, but not documented and not officially supported.
