Content Library Synchronization validation

[SteveG1836]

So this is task that maybe cannot be done without access to the vCenter logs, but I am trying to see if there is a way using PowerCli to see if Content Libraries have synced with the master (local) library. The local library is in one vCenter and the subscriber content libraries are in another vCenter.

Any hints, suggestions, or actual code would be appreciated. Please note I do not have SSH access to the hosts or the VCSA vm.

Thamk you in advance.

If you are connected to the the 'another vCenter', you can use the REST API.

Something like this for example

Connect-CisServer -Server $global:DefaultVIServer.Name | Out-Null

$sub = Get-CisService -Name 'com.vmware.content.subscribed_library'
$sub.list() | ForEach-Object -Process {
    $sub.get($_.Value) | Select name,last_sync_time,
        @{N='AutoSync';E={$_.subscription_info.automatic_sync_enabled}}
}

Disconnect-CisServer -Confirm:$false
