Is there any ways to get drive information of each vmware in Vmware ESX via Vsphere SDK with Java?


In my vmware esx server, I have four vmware such as Window 7, Window XP, Window Server 2008 and Window Server 2012. And drive information for each vmware:

My question is:

How do I get drive detail information (for example, Drive C, used space and free space of Window 7) by vsphere sdk? And also drive information of another 3 vmware.


Solution

  • Answer:

    GuestInfo info = vm.getGuest(); //(vm means VirtualMachine object.)
    GuestDiskInfo[] dInfos = info.getDisk();
    if (dInfos != null) {
      System.out.println("Disk Info");
      for (GuestDiskInfo dInfo : dInfos) {
        System.out.println(" Capacity(GB):"+dInfo.getCapacity()/1024/1024/1024);
        System.out.println(" Free(GB):"+dInfo.getFreeSpace()/1024/1024/1024);
        System.out.println(" Disk Path:"+dInfo.getDiskPath());
        System.out.println("============");
      }
    }
    

    **Important: Firstly need to install vmware tools on each guest os machine. From this question, guest os are Window 7, Window Xp, Window Server 2008 and Window server 2012.
