I need to query the IP address after auto-deploying a VM using vSphere API, in order to do some remote auto-configuration. But the VM has all NICs bonded together(see following ifconfig output).
I have the VMware tools installed, and then retrieved the GuestInfo object of the VM using the API, but seems GuestInfo only provides information of the NICs, which in my case do not show any IP address. So is there a way to query the bonding address?
My vSphere SDK version: 5.1.0
VM: CentOS 5.4
Ifconfig output of the VM:
[root@Test-VM ~]# ifconfig
bond0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:56:AC:79:C4

Any help is greatly appreciated!!
