GetDistributedVirtualSwitch

The vsphere..DistributedVirtualSwitch data source can be used to discover the ID and uplink data of a of a vSphere distributed virtual switch (DVS). This can then be used with resources or data sources that require a DVS, such as the vsphere..DistributedPortGroup resource, for which an example is shown below.

NOTE: This data source requires vCenter and is not available on direct ESXi connections.

Example Usage

using Pulumi;
using VSphere = Pulumi.VSphere;

class MyStack : Stack
{
    public MyStack()
    {
        var datacenter = Output.Create(VSphere.GetDatacenter.InvokeAsync(new VSphere.GetDatacenterArgs
        {
            Name = "dc1",
        }));
        var dvs = datacenter.Apply(datacenter => Output.Create(VSphere.GetDistributedVirtualSwitch.InvokeAsync(new VSphere.GetDistributedVirtualSwitchArgs
        {
            DatacenterId = datacenter.Id,
            Name = "test-dvs",
        })));
        var pg = new VSphere.DistributedPortGroup("pg", new VSphere.DistributedPortGroupArgs
        {
            ActiveUplinks = 
            {
                dvs.Apply(dvs => dvs.Uplinks[0]),
            },
            DistributedVirtualSwitchUuid = dvs.Apply(dvs => dvs.Id),
            StandbyUplinks = 
            {
                dvs.Apply(dvs => dvs.Uplinks[1]),
            },
        });
    }

}

import pulumi
import pulumi_vsphere as vsphere

datacenter = vsphere.get_datacenter(name="dc1")
dvs = vsphere.get_distributed_virtual_switch(datacenter_id=datacenter.id,
    name="test-dvs")

    active_uplinks=[dvs.uplinks[0]],
    distributed_virtual_switch_uuid=dvs.id,
    standby_uplinks=[dvs.uplinks[1]])
import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";

const datacenter = pulumi.output(vsphere.getDatacenter({
    name: "dc1",
}, { async: true }));
const dvs = datacenter.apply(datacenter => vsphere.getDistributedVirtualSwitch({
    datacenterId: datacenter.id,

});

Using GetDistributedVirtualSwitch

function getDistributedVirtualSwitch(args: GetDistributedVirtualSwitchArgs, opts?: InvokeOptions): Promise<GetDistributedVirtualSwitchResult>
function  get_distributed_virtual_switch(datacenter_id=None, name=None, opts=None)
func LookupDistributedVirtualSwitch(ctx *Context, args *LookupDistributedVirtualSwitchArgs, opts ...InvokeOption) (*LookupDistributedVirtualSwitchResult, error)

Note: This function is named LookupDistributedVirtualSwitch in the Go SDK.

public static class GetDistributedVirtualSwitch {
    public static Task<GetDistributedVirtualSwitchResult> InvokeAsync(GetDistributedVirtualSwitchArgs args, InvokeOptions? opts = null)
}

The following arguments are supported:

Name string

The name of the distributed virtual switch. This can be a name or path.

DatacenterId string

The managed object reference ID of the datacenter the DVS is located in. This can be omitted if the search path used in name is an absolute path. For default datacenters, use the id attribute from an empty vsphere..Datacenter data source.

Name string

The name of the distributed virtual switch. This can be a name or path.

DatacenterId string

The managed object reference ID of the datacenter the DVS is located in. This can be omitted if the search path used in name is an absolute path. For default datacenters, use the id attribute from an empty vsphere..Datacenter data source.

name string

The name of the distributed virtual switch. This can be a name or path.

datacenterId string

The managed object reference ID of the datacenter the DVS is located in. This can be omitted if the search path used in name is an absolute path. For default datacenters, use the id attribute from an empty vsphere..Datacenter data source.

name str

The name of the distributed virtual switch. This can be a name or path.

datacenter_id str

The managed object reference ID of the datacenter the DVS is located in. This can be omitted if the search path used in name is an absolute path. For default datacenters, use the id attribute from an empty vsphere..Datacenter data source.
