Inventory Object: VirtualMachine

FlexNet Manager Suite 2022 R1 (On-Premises)

VirtualMachine objects are uploaded to the ImportedVirtualMachine table in the operations (inventory) database. Multiple imports will merge updated data with existing records, and add new records as applicable.

The ImportedVirtualMachine table holds all of the virtual machines which have been retrieved from the source connections.

Attributes are listed here in alphabetical order.

Property	Attributes	Notes
AffinityEnabled	Boolean (0 or 1). Default: 0.	Set this to True if this VM is unable to move to different host computers.
CPUAffinity	Alpha-numeric text (maximum 256 characters). May be null.	Contains the CPU Affinity value for virtual machine(Host Logical Processors)
CPUUsage	Unsigned integer (int). May be null.	The maximum CPU usage of the virtual machine (MHz).
ComputerName	Alpha-numeric text (maximum 256 characters). May be null.	The computer name of the virtual machine.
CoreAffinity	Alpha-numeric text (maximum 256 characters). May be null.	Contains the Core Affinity value for virtual machine
FriendlyName	Alpha-numeric text (maximum 256 characters). May be null.	The friendly name of the virtual machine.
GuestFullName	Alpha-numeric text (maximum 256 characters). May be null.	Configured operating system for the guest.
HostComputerID	Unsigned integer (bigint). Mandatory. Database key.	The identifier used in the source connection for the virtual machine's host computer. Note: Strictly, this attribute may be null, because it forms part of a compound database key. However, null values may cause import errors (where this object does not get imported), and multiple records from the same connection having nulls may cause data loss through over-writing. It is therefore best practice to treat this field as mandatory.
InventoryAgent	Alpha-numeric text (maximum 64 characters). May be null.	The name of the person or tool that performed the last inventory.
Manufacturer	Alpha-numeric text (maximum 128 characters). May be null.	The manufacturer of the virtual machine.
MemoryUsage	Unsigned integer (bigint). May be null.	The maximum memory usage of the virtual machine (bytes).
ModelNo	Alpha-numeric text (maximum 128 characters). May be null.	The model number of the virtual machine.
NumberOfHardDrives	Unsigned integer (int). May be null.	The number of hard drives in the virtual machine.
NumberOfNetworkCards	Unsigned integer (int). May be null.	The number of network cards in the virtual machine.
NumberOfProcessors	Unsigned integer (int). May be null.	The number of processors in the virtual machine.
PartitionID	Alpha-numeric text (maximum 100 characters). May be null.	Partition ID generated and used by the managing virtualization platform
PartitionNumber	Unsigned integer (int). May be null.	Number of this partition
PoolName	Alpha-numeric text (maximum 100 characters). May be null.	The name of the pool that the virtual machine belongs to.
PoolType	An ASCII string of alphanumeric characters and punctuation (length 100 characters). May be null.	The type of the pool that the virtual machine belongs to.
ProcessorType	Alpha-numeric text (maximum 256 characters). May be null.	The type of processor in the virtual machine.
TotalMemory	Unsigned integer (bigint). May be null.	The total RAM in the computer, in bytes.
UUID	Alpha-numeric text (maximum 256 characters). May be null.	The UUID of the virtual machine.
VMComputerID	Unsigned integer (bigint). Mandatory. Database key.	The identifier used in the source connection for the virtual machine's computer. Note: Strictly, this attribute may be null, because it forms part of a compound database key. However, null values may cause import errors (where this object does not get imported), and multiple records from the same connection having nulls may cause data loss through over-writing. It is therefore best practice to treat this field as mandatory.
VMEnabledStateID	Unsigned integer (int). May be null.	The state of the machine (powered on, off, etc).
VMLocation	Alpha-numeric text (maximum 256 characters). May be null.	Location of the virtual machine on the file system.
VMName	Alpha-numeric text (maximum 256 characters). May be null.	The name of the virtual machine.
VirtualMachineType	An ASCII string of alphanumeric characters and punctuation (length 100 characters). May be null.	The type of virtual machine.
