Hi,
I am trying to add UNMAP in the vSphere web client plugin. However, it seems like there is no API call for UNMAP. You have to call through the CLI in order to UNMAP.
Is there an equivalent set of vSphere API calls that would do the same thing as UNMAP?
Thanks!
There is not an UNMAP API, you will need to either us ESXCLI within the ESXi Shell or the remote version
Yes, but doesn't UNMAP call the vSphere API through the ESXCLI? If so, there should be some equivalent set of calls that does the same thing as UNMAP....
No, it does not. ESXCLI is completely different and it does not have an API
That is disappointing, but thank you for confirming.
If you would like to DM privately with more details for this request I can forward it internally.
In the meantime, here is one option of exposing this functionality through the vSphere Web Client http://www.virtuallyghetto.com/2014/09/want-to-issue-a-vaai-unmap-operation-using-the-vsphere-web-cl...
