vcenter_appliance

Client for vCenter appliance APIs under /api/appliance/.

Covers the VAMI-equivalent REST surface: services, system version, health summary, DNS, syslog forwarding.

Note: /api/appliance/health/system returns a JSON-encoded plain string (e.g. "green") rather than a dict. utils/vcenter.api_get returns that string verbatim; callers should not assume a dict shape.

saltext.vcf.clients.vcenter_appliance.services_list(opts, profile=None)

Return the dict of appliance services, keyed by service id.

saltext.vcf.clients.vcenter_appliance.health_system(opts, profile=None)

Return the overall health status string (e.g. "green").

saltext.vcf.clients.vcenter_appliance.dns_get(opts, profile=None)

Return {"mode": "is_static"|"dhcp", "servers": [...]}.

saltext.vcf.clients.vcenter_appliance.logging_forwarding_set(opts, servers, profile=None)

Replace the syslog forwarding destination list.

servers is a list of forwarder configs, each shaped like:

{"hostname": "collector.example.com", "port": 514, "protocol": "UDP"}
