Subject: [Users] Python script retrieving MACs
Hi,
Im currently making a script using the Python SDK to retrieve a list
of VM names + their MAC address.
I currently came up with this
17 vm = api.vms.list()
18
19
20 for item in vm:
21 hostname = item.get_name()
22 nic = api.vms.get(name=hostname).nics.list()
23 for net in nic:
24 nicname = net.mac.get_address()
25 print "%s" % hostname
26 print "%s" % nicname
I've noticed that retrieving the nic list during the iteration does a
logon each time which slows thing down dramatically.
Is there a better way to get the NICs from a list of VMs?

##if you using > 3.1 backend, you should be using persistent authentication in api,
##this way you'll have to pass JSESSIONID and login will happen only on first
request.
Michael , please elaborate on that
Regards,
Vincent
