Import Config Cluster Configuration Async

Import Config Cluster Configuration Async

This API replaces the existing desired configuration of the cluster with the configuration provided in the input parameter document. The API will internally validate the input configuration against the configuration schema derived from the cluster software specification associated with the cluster. If the input configuration document passes validation, then it will be the desired configuration of the cluster. The result will specify whether the input document was import successfully. The result will also list the validation errors in case the import operation failed.

An identifier for the task created by this API invocation will be returned. If the non-async version of the operation returns a value, this id can be used with the CIS Get Task operation to fetch that value. The normal description of this operation's return value will follow if one exists. This output structure of type com.vmware.esx.settings.clusters.Configuration#ImportResult contains the result of this operation.

Stack of one or more localizable messages for human error consumers. The message at the top of the stack (first in the list) describes the error from the perspective of the operation the client invoked.

Each subsequent message in the stack describes the "cause" of the prior message.

object
data
Optional

Data to facilitate clients responding to the operation reporting a standard error to indicating that it was unable to complete successfully. Operations may provide data that clients can use when responding to errors. Since the data that clients need may be specific to the context of the operation reporting the error, different operations that report the same error may provide different data in the error. The documentation for each each operation will describe what, if any, data it provides for each error it reports.

The ArgumentLocations, FileLocations, and TransientIndication structures are intended as possible values for this field. DynamicID may also be useful as a value for this field (although that is not its primary purpose). Some services may provide their own specific structures for use as the value of this field when reporting errors from their operations.

Some operations will not set this field when reporting errors.
