GetVmfsDisks

The vsphere..getVmfsDisks data source can be used to discover the storage devices available on an ESXi host. This data source can be combined with the vsphere..VmfsDatastore resource to create VMFS datastores based off a set of discovered disks.

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 host = datacenter.Apply(datacenter => Output.Create(VSphere.GetHost.InvokeAsync(new VSphere.GetHostArgs
        {
            DatacenterId = datacenter.Id,
            Name = "esxi1",
        })));
        var available = host.Apply(host => Output.Create(VSphere.GetVmfsDisks.InvokeAsync(new VSphere.GetVmfsDisksArgs
        {
            Filter = "mpx.vmhba1:C0:T[12]:L0",
            HostSystemId = host.Id,
            Rescan = true,
        })));
    }

}

    name="esxi1")

Using GetVmfsDisks

function getVmfsDisks(args: GetVmfsDisksArgs, opts?: InvokeOptions): Promise<GetVmfsDisksResult>
function  get_vmfs_disks(filter=None, host_system_id=None, rescan=None, opts=None)
func GetVmfsDisks(ctx *Context, args *GetVmfsDisksArgs, opts ...InvokeOption) (*GetVmfsDisksResult, error)
public static class GetVmfsDisks {
    public static Task<GetVmfsDisksResult> InvokeAsync(GetVmfsDisksArgs args, InvokeOptions? opts = null)
}

The following arguments are supported:

HostSystemId string

The managed object ID of the host to look for disks on.

Filter string

A regular expression to filter the disks against. Only disks with canonical names that match will be included.

Rescan bool

Whether or not to rescan storage adapters before searching for disks. This may lengthen the time it takes to perform the search. Default: false.

HostSystemId string

The managed object ID of the host to look for disks on.

Filter string

A regular expression to filter the disks against. Only disks with canonical names that match will be included.

Rescan bool

Whether or not to rescan storage adapters before searching for disks. This may lengthen the time it takes to perform the search. Default: false.

hostSystemId string

The managed object ID of the host to look for disks on.

filter string

A regular expression to filter the disks against. Only disks with canonical names that match will be included.

rescan boolean

filter str

rescan bool
