Hi, VM object has methods representing api actions, use them to manipulate vm state as you need (note: you can see permitted argument/s for the given method in method's __doc__) On 10/23/2012 08:40 AM, Itamar Heim wrote:

Hello ,
I am having a Rhel6.2 machine over tht i have installed ovirt-sdk using following command :
$ git clone http://gerrit.ovirt.org/ovirt-engine-sdk <http://gerrit.ovirt.org/ovirt-engine-sdk> $ yum install -y rpm-build python-devel python-setuptools $ make rpm $ yum localinstall rpmtop/RPMS/noarch/ovirt-engine-sdk-x.y-z.noarch.rpm
thn i have written python script rhevmtest.py :
from ovirtsdk.api import API from ovirtsdk.xml import params import time
rhevm_uri = "https://rhevm301.vmm.hp.com:8443/api" rhevm_username = "admin@rhevm301.vmm.hp.com <mailto:admin@rhevm301.vmm.hp.com>" rhevm_password = "iso*help"
rhevmAPI = API(url=rhevm_uri, username=rhevm_username, password=rhevm_password)
print "Connected to RHEVM Successful"
instances = rhevmAPI.vms.list() cluster = rhevmAPI.clusters.get(name='Default')
template = rhevmAPI.templates.get(name='CentOS')
param = params.VM(name= 'test_vm' ,cluster=cluster,template=template,memory=2147483648) vm6 = rhevmAPI.vms.add(param)
and its working fine :)
Now can give me some guidance to write script for following functions:
pause (Pause a running vm)
Unpause (UnPause a vm)
start (start a vm from shutdown state)
shutdown (shutdown a vm)
stop (Poweroff the vm)
*. * snapshot/ create template (take snapshot of a vm) live-migration (Migrates a running vm to a new machine)
resize (Resize a vm)
resize-confirm (Confirm a previous vm)
resize-revert Revert a previous resize (and return to the previousVM)
