How can I get list of all volumes attached with VM in vSphere using java api.

Solution

  • In the mean time, I found the answer. All courtesy to Deadline

        VirtualMachine vm = getVM(); // get the vm object

    List<VirtualDisk> virtualDiskList = new ArrayList<VirtualDisk>();
    VirtualMachineConfigInfo vmConfig = vm.getConfig();
    VirtualDevice[] vds = vmConfig.getHardware().getDevice();
    for(VirtualDevice vd : vds){
        if(vd instanceof VirtualDisk){
            virtualDiskList.add((VirtualDisk)vd);
        }
    }

    Now virtualDiskList contains all virtual disks(volumes) attached with the given instance.
