[Users] Fwd: Regarding Python script for RHEVM

[Tim Hildred]

Hey Romil,

You could also check out the RHEV Developer Guide here:
https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.1-Beta/html-single/Developer_Guide/index.html

It is a beta version of the guide, but will be updated when RHEV 3.1 GAs. It is written for RHEV, but there should be enough overlap for it to be helpful to you.
