Hey Michael,
I had a question about what the best way of getting all hosts within a data center was
using the oVirt Java API. Currently, we've been doing a "reverse lookup"
from all
hosts present in the oVirt Engine to see what clusters they're in and then finding
out what data center the cluster belongs to. Thanks in advance, Michael!
Almost all root collections (such as hosts in your case), supports querying using
very same engine search dialect, so actually you can go to UI, combine query,
(use auto-completion) and use it in SDK, e.g:
List<Host> hosts = api.getHosts().list("datacenter = mydatacenter", null,
null);
hope it helps.
