How to get Storage Resources, Mount Devices and Available Interfacesan of an Esxi host

[sajuptpm]

Hi,

I want to find following things from Esxi host via sdk

1)

number of sockets in an Esxi host

2)

Number of cores

I think "host.summary.hardware.numCpuCores" will give it.

Is it correct ?

3)

Storage Resources

host.datastore will return list of storages (object of class Datastore)

Is it correct ?

I need storage resources available in an Esxi host like : NFS, etc---   (with info like size, used, free, type )

4)

Virtual Networks
host.network will return list of networks (object of class Network)

Is it correct ?

5)

Mount Devices

I don't konw how get devices (eg: /dev/sda) mounted to an Esxi host

6)

Available Interfaces

I don't konw how get interfaces available in an Esxi host

I want to find interfaces like : etho, tap0, br1 (with its config details)

Hello

What i want to ask you is about Storage Resources.

I tried to get storage information by code below:

      Object cmobj  = cb.getServiceUtil().GetDynamicProperty(hostmor, "configManager");

      HostConfigManager configMgr = (HostConfigManager)cmobj;

      ManagedObjectReference ssSystem = configMgr.storageSystem;

      HostStorageDeviceInfo storageInfo = (HostStorageDeviceInfo)cb.getServiceUtil().GetDynamicProperty(ssSystem, "storageDeviceInfo");

In the storageInfo, i cannot get directely storage resources information like size, used, free, type. Could you tell me how did you get these informations?

And indeed, i tried to get these information by using code below:

_service = ecb.getServiceConnectionV25().Service;

_sic = ecb.getServiceConnectionV25().ServiceContent; 

ManagedObjectReference[] hmor = _service.FindAllByIp(_sic.searchIndex, dcmor, ecb.get_option("hostname"), true);

I can just get one disk information of total 10 disks.

Do you have any idea?

Thanks

Object cobj = cb.getServiceUtil().GetDynamicProperty(hostmor, "datastore");

                    ManagedObjectReference[] datastores = (ManagedObjectReference[])cobj;

                    for (int i = 0; i < datastores.Length; i++)

                    {

                        VimApi.DatastoreSummary storageSummaryInfo = (VimApi.DatastoreSummary)cb.getServiceUtil().GetObjectProperties(cb.getConnection().ServiceContent.propertyCollector, datastores[i], new String[] { "summary" })[0].propSet[0].val;

                        Console.WriteLine("  Id: " + storageSummaryInfo.name +

                                          " ; Peripherique: " + storageSummaryInfo.url +

                                          " ; Capacite: " + storageSummaryInfo.capacity +

                                          " ; Libre: " + storageSummaryInfo.freeSpace +

                                          " ; Type: " + storageSummaryInfo.type);

                    }
