Pyvmomi How to disable/enable vsan silent checks

I've been reading the documentation for pyvmomi but it's not clear on how to use the function VsanHealthSetVsanClusterSilentChecks from the managed object vim.cluster.VsanVcClusterHealthSystem, it doesn't say how to initialize or how to instance the object or show any example on how to use it.

i have tried code like this:

vchs = vim.cluster.VsanVcClusterHealthSystem('vsan-cluster-health-system')
check = vchs.VsanHealthSetVsanClusterSilentChecks(cluster, None, alarm_list)

The code throws an exception but it's not very descriptive:

VsanVcClusterHealthSystem

and that is all from the exception error message.

Pyvmomi documentation for VsanHealthSetVsanClusterSilentChecks

Solution

  • Turns out that pyvmomi on it's own can't do that, i needed to use vSAN Management SDK for Python
