class VMwareImage(image_id, file_size=0, os_type='otherGuest', adapter_type='lsiLogic', disk_type='preallocated', container_format='bare', file_type='vmdk', linked_clone=None, vif_model='e1000')

file_size_in_kb
-
classmethod from_image(image_id, image_meta)
Returns VMwareImage, the subset of properties the driver uses.
:param image_id - image id of image
:param image_meta - image metadata object we are working with
:return: vmware image object
:rtype: nova.virt.vmwareapi.images.VmwareImage

-
fetch_image(context, instance, host, port, dc_name, ds_name, file_path, cookies=None)
Download image from the glance image server.
-
fetch_image_ova(context, instance, session, vm_name, ds_name, vm_folder_ref, res_pool_ref)
Download the OVA image from the glance image server to the
Nova compute node.
-
fetch_image_stream_optimized(context, instance, session, vm_name, ds_name, vm_folder_ref, res_pool_ref)
Fetch image from Glance to ESX datastore.
-
get_vmdk_name_from_ovf(xmlstr)
Parse the OVA descriptor to extract the vmdk name.
-
start_transfer(context, read_file_handle, data_size, write_file_handle=None, image_id=None, image_meta=None)
Start the data transfer from the reader to the writer.
Reader writes to the pipe and the writer reads from the pipe. This means
that the total transfer time boils down to the slower of the read/write
and not the addition of the two times.
-
upload_image_stream_optimized(context, image_id, instance, session, vm, vmdk_size)
Upload the snapshotted vm disk file to Glance image server.
-
upload_iso_to_datastore(iso_path, instance, **kwargs)
