I'm looking for a script (or options to vidiscovery.pl that I have missed) that will simply give me the same list items that I see in the VMware Infrastructure Client under Hosts & Clusters.
vidiscovery.pl does not "discover" anything because you have to provide the name of the entity to see the entities contents. I want something that can give me the types and names of the entities under Hosts & Clusters with me only specifying the sdk host, similar to what the c# sdk sample app Browser.cs does. Currently, I have to provide a datacenter's name to see the datacenter contents, but I see no way to this script to provide me the datacenter names.
I found that "Hosts & Clusters" is an entity of type folder with name "Datacenters" using the mob browser. But a vidiscovery.pl --managedentity folder --entityname Datacenters provides all folders one level down (great) BUT also provides all sorts of other folders that I don't see in the VMware Infrastructure client and does not provide my top level datacenters (rendering the returned information useless).
So just a real simple script that given the sdk host provides the types and names of top level things I see under Hosts & Clusters in the VMware Infrastructure Client.
