VcFileManager.uploadFileToDatastore or how to upload vmdk file to URL in vRO/vCO

Hi,

First question.

Can I use VcFileManager.uploadFileToDatastore() to upload a vmdk file as part of deploying VM? I am trying to write a script in vRealize Orchestrator to deploy a VM.

If yes I am trying to upload and for that I did this.

...

...

var vcFileManager = host.sdkConnection.VcFileManager;

vcFileManager.uploadFileToDatastore(datacenter,datastore, vmdk_path, datastore_path);

...

When I run I get this error. I believe I am passing the right arguments. Any comments on this?

[2016-01-14 09:41:14.780] [I] TypeError: Cannot call method "uploadFileToDatastore" of undefined (Workflow:test / Scriptable task (item1)#186)

Second question

If uploadFileToDatastore() is not the right way to upload a vmdk file, then does anyone have any link which can guide me in writing a script in vRealize Orchestrator to upload a vmdk file after acquiring NFC lease?

Thanks & Regards

Sandeep
