Properties

Name	Type	Description
bootTime*	xsd:dateTime	The timestamp when the virtual machine was most recently powered on. This property is updated when the virtual machine is powered on from the poweredOff state, and is cleared when the virtual machine is powered off. This property is not updated when a virtual machine is resumed from a suspended state.
connectionState	VirtualMachineConnectionState	Indicates whether or not the virtual machine is available for management.
host*	ManagedObjectReference to a HostSystem	The host that is responsible for running a virtual machine. This property is null if the virtual machine is not running and is not assigned to run on a particular host.
maxCpuUsage*	xsd:int	Current upper-bound on CPU usage. The upper-bound is based on the host the virtual machine is current running on, as well as limits configured on the virtual machine itself or any parent resource pool. Valid while the virtual machine is running.
maxMemoryUsage*	xsd:int	Current upper-bound on memory usage. The upper-bound is based on memory configuration of the virtual machine, as well as limits configured on the virtual machine itself or any parent resource pool. Valid while the virtual machine is running.
memoryOverhead*	xsd:long	The amount of memory resource (in bytes) that will be used by the virtual machine above its guest memory requirements. This value is set if and only if the virtual machine is registered on a host that supports memory resource allocation features.
numMksConnections	xsd:int	Number of active MKS connections to this virtual machine.
powerState	VirtualMachinePowerState	The current power state of the virtual machine.
question*	VirtualMachineQuestionInfo	The current question, if any, that is blocking the virtual machine's execution.
suspendInterval*	xsd:long	The total time the virtual machine has been suspended since it was initially powered on. This time excludes the current period, if the virtual machine is currently suspended. This property is updated when the virtual machine resumes, and is reset to zero when the virtual machine is powered off.
suspendTime*	xsd:dateTime	The timestamp when the virtual machine was most recently suspended. This property is updated every time the virtual machine is suspended.
toolsInstallerMounted	xsd:boolean	Flag to indicate whether or not the VMware Tools installer is mounted as a CD-ROM.

Description

bootTime*

xsd:dateTime

The timestamp when the virtual machine was most recently powered on.

This property is updated when the virtual machine is powered on from the poweredOff state, and is cleared when the virtual machine is powered off. This property is not updated when a virtual machine is resumed from a suspended state.

connectionState

VirtualMachineConnectionState

Indicates whether or not the virtual machine is available for management.

host*

ManagedObjectReference
to a HostSystem

The host that is responsible for running a virtual machine. This property is null if the virtual machine is not running and is not assigned to run on a particular host.

maxCpuUsage*

xsd:int

Current upper-bound on CPU usage. The upper-bound is based on the host the virtual machine is current running on, as well as limits configured on the virtual machine itself or any parent resource pool. Valid while the virtual machine is running.

maxMemoryUsage*

xsd:int

Current upper-bound on memory usage. The upper-bound is based on memory configuration of the virtual machine, as well as limits configured on the virtual machine itself or any parent resource pool. Valid while the virtual machine is running.

memoryOverhead*

xsd:long

The amount of memory resource (in bytes) that will be used by the virtual machine above its guest memory requirements. This value is set if and only if the virtual machine is registered on a host that supports memory resource allocation features.

numMksConnections

xsd:int

Number of active MKS connections to this virtual machine.

powerState

VirtualMachinePowerState

The current power state of the virtual machine.

question*

VirtualMachineQuestionInfo

The current question, if any, that is blocking the virtual machine's execution.

suspendInterval*

xsd:long

The total time the virtual machine has been suspended since it was initially powered on. This time excludes the current period, if the virtual machine is currently suspended. This property is updated when the virtual machine resumes, and is reset to zero when the virtual machine is powered off.

suspendTime*

xsd:dateTime

The timestamp when the virtual machine was most recently suspended.

This property is updated every time the virtual machine is suspended.

toolsInstallerMounted

xsd:boolean

Flag to indicate whether or not the VMware Tools installer is mounted as a CD-ROM.
