[ovirt-users] oVirt API (4.0 and 4.1) not reporting vms running on a given storage domain

[Ondra Machacek]

Hi,

As per documentation:

http://ovirt.github.io/ovirt-engine-api-model/4.1/#services/storage_domain_vms

That resource is used to list VMs on export storage domain, not on data 
domain.

If you want to find VMs using specific storage you may use following query:

   /ovirt-engine/api/vms?search=storage.name=nameofthestorage
