Shawn Hartsock 15f7be9a52 pyVmomi reStructured Text Documentation
This external documentation for pyVmomi was generated using Googly Docs
(aka Google Standard Documentation) which renders very cleanly in
GitHub. Internal documentation for a class should be done in Sphinx
format because tools like pyCharm and Eclipse can use that documentation
as a hint for code completion.

Note: External docs as Googly Docs, internal docs as Sphinx.

Attributes:

serviceURI (str):

Identifies the local host or a system on the network, depending on the value of direction .
  • If you use the virtual machine as a server, the URI identifies the host on which the virtual machine runs. In this case, the host name part of the URI should be empty, or it should specify the address of the local host.
  • If you use the virtual machine as a client, the URI identifies the remote system on the network.

direction (str):

The direction of the connection. For possible values see VirtualDeviceURIBackingOptionDirection

proxyURI (str, optional):

Identifies a proxy service that provides network access to the serviceURI . If you specify a proxy URI, the virtual machine initiates a connection with the proxy service and forwards the serviceURI and direction to the proxy.
