VMware CIM Storage Management API requirements

Hello,

I am new to the VMWare API access and am trying to pull information regarding RDM's and LUN's on specific virtual machines.

I believe I need to use the: VMware CIM Storage Management API

I am using a CentOS 5 server with the following installed:

- CIM_SDK_159652 (VMware-vSphere-cim-sdk-4.0.0-159652.zip)

- PYWBEM ( pywbem.svn.sourceforge.net)

I can query for some information however other queries fail, for example using VMWARE_VMComputerSystem works but when trying to use VMWARE_ESXComputerSystem the connect appears to lock up.

Do I need to setup and config: VMware vSphere Management Assistant?

I am currently accessing the ESX server directly to test out the functionality of the CIM and intend to change access so the scripts go through the VirtualCenter.

Thanks

Michael
