Data Object - VirtualMachineFilePath(sms.storage.replication.VirtualMachineFilePath)

Extends: VirtualMachineId
Since: 6.5

Data Object Description

Identifies a virtual machine by its VMX file path.

Properties

Name	Type	Description
dsUrl	xsd:string	Datastore URL, which is globally unique (name is not).
vcUuid*	xsd:string	The vCenter UUID - this is informational only, and may not always be set.
vmxPath	xsd:string	Full path name from the URL onwards. When the vmxPath is returned after failover, the VMX file should be fixed up to contain correct target filenames for all replicated disks. For non-replicated disks, the target filenames can contain any arbitrary path. For better security, it is recommended to set these disks pointed to a random string (e.g. UUID).
