I have succesfully used java sdk to registered my plugin into VI client. It works perfect.
However, when I open the Plug-in Manager Window. It has display error
name and description is the last part of key, verndor is empty. I have attached a screen shot of this Plugin-Manger.
When I open ->content->[extensionList["com.xsigo.xmsweb.xms_172.16.0.181_app"]|http://null/mob/?moid=ExtensionManager&doPath=extensionList%5b%22com%2exsigo%2exmsweb%2exms%5f172%2e16%2e0%2e181%5fapp%22%5d]
I found company is unset, when I open description, type is unset , dynamicProperty Unset, label an d summary is the last part of key : 181_app
here is my java grovy code:
DynamicProperty[] dynamicProperty = new DynamicProperty[0]
Description description = new Description("", dynamicProperty, "Xsigo Virtual I/O Management", "Xsigo Management System")
ExtensionServerInfo esi = new ExtensionServerInfo()
esi.url = plugInConfigureUrl
esi.setDescription(description)
esi.company = "Xsigo Systems, Inc."
esi.type = 'com.vmware.vim.viClientScripts'
esi.adminEmail =
ExtensionClientInfo eci = new ExtensionClientInfo()
eci.version ="2.1.0"
eci.setDescription(description)
eci.company = "Xsigo Systems, Inc."
eci.type = "com.vmware.vim.viClientScripts"
eci.url = ""
Extension ext = new Extension()
ext.setDescription(description)
ext.company = "Xsigo Systems, Inc."
ext.key = keyStr //key is com.xsigo.xmsweb.xms_172.16.0.181_app
ext.version = "2.1.0"
ext.subjectName = "VC Extensibility"
ext.server =
ext.client =
ext.taskList = []
ext.eventList = []
ext.faultList = []
ext.privilegeList = []
ext.resourceList = []
ext.lastHeartbeatTime = Calendar.getInstance()
// get hold of ExtensionManager reference
ManagedObjectReference extMgrMof = service.getExtensionManager();
service.registerExtension(extMgrMof, ext);
log.info "registration successful!"
Can someone tell me what I did wrong? the vim25.jar is downloaded from vspher 4.0 sdk.
