vmware获取主机、数据中心等对象ManagedObjectReference

在vmware的api中提供以下列表中的对象，称作ManagedObjectReference，包括虚拟机信息、主机、数据中心等等一些信息，我们可以通过vcenter的web api得到。

下面我们来通过它的api获取dc。

 List<String> arguments = new List<string>();
 arguments.AddRange(
     new string[]{
     "--url", "https://192.168.0.160/sdk",
     "--username", "[e-mail]",
     "--password", "P@ssw0rd",
     //"--datacentername","dc",
     //"--srcname", "",
     //"--vmname", "",
     //"--hostname","",
     //"--storagename","",
     //"--disksize","",
     //"--privateip","",
     //"--privatesubnetmask", "",
     //"--cpunums","",
     //"--memorymb","",
     "--disablesso", "true",
     "--ignorecert", "true"
 });
 try
 {
     System.Text.StringBuilder sb = new System.Text.StringBuilder();

     AppUtil.AppUtil util = AppUtil.AppUtil.initialize("SearchIndex", constructOptions(), arguments.ToArray());
     util.connect();
 　　
     ManagedObjectReference hostMor = util._svcUtil.GetDecendentMoRef(null, "HostSystem", "192.168.0.161");
     sb.AppendLine(string.Format("host is {0}<br />", hostMor.Value));
     ManagedObjectReference dcMor = util._svcUtil.getEntityByName("Datacenter", "dc");
     sb.AppendLine(string.Format("dc is {0}<br />", dcMor.Value));

     ManagedObjectReference sMor = new ManagedObjectReference();
     sMor.type = "ServiceInstance";
     sMor.Value = "ServiceInstance";
     VimService service = new VimService();
     service.Url = util.get_option("url");
     service.CookieContainer = new System.Net.CookieContainer();
     ServiceContent sc = service.RetrieveServiceContent(sMor);
     service.Login(sc.sessionManager, util.get_option("username"), util.get_option("password"), null);

     ManagedObjectReference searchMor = sc.searchIndex;
     ManagedObjectReference dcMor2 = service.FindByInventoryPath(searchMor, "dc");
     sb.AppendLine(string.Format("dc2 is {0}<br />", dcMor2.Value));

     util.disConnect();
     service.Dispose();

     Response.Write(sb.ToString());

 }
 catch (Exception ex) { Response.Write(ex.ToString()); }

上述代码中我们运用了两种不同的代码方式获取数据中心对象，下面是它的运行结果，我们可以看到vcenter在内部用了别称。

在vcenter server中封装了http://ip/sdk的api，开发者可以直接调用。

每个实体下面具有一些属性，文档可以查询Data Object ManagedObjectReference。
