Vm Hardware Parallel APIs
The Parallel service provides operations for configuring the virtual parallel ports of a virtual machine.
Operations
POST
Connect Vm Port Parallel
Connects a virtual parallel port of a powered-on virtual machine to its backing. Connecting the virtual device makes the backing accessible from the perspective of the guest operating system.
For a powered-off virtual machine, the Parallel.update operation may be used to configure the virtual parallel port to start in the connected state when the virtual machine is powered on.
POST
Create Vm Hardware Parallel
Adds a virtual parallel port to the virtual machine.
GET
List Vm Hardware Parallel
Returns commonly used information about the virtual parallel ports belonging to the virtual machine.
DELETE
Delete Vm Port Hardware Parallel
Removes a virtual parallel port from the virtual machine.
GET
Get Vm Port Hardware Parallel
Returns information about a virtual parallel port.
PATCH
Update Vm Port Hardware Parallel
Updates the configuration of a virtual parallel port.
POST
Disconnect Vm Port Parallel
Disconnects a virtual parallel port of a powered-on virtual machine from its backing. The virtual device is still present and its backing configuration is unchanged, but from the perspective of the guest operating system, the parallel port is not connected to its backing.
For a powered-off virtual machine, the Parallel.update operation may be used to configure the virtual parallel port to start in the disconnected state when the virtual machine is powered on.
