Trying to list protected VMs
-

Hi,
I’m trying complete a major procedure in which I’d like to list the ZERTO protected VMs on my VMWARE environment
I type the following command: Get-VmsReplicatingToHost -ZVMIP ZVMIP -ZVMPort 9080 -username myuser@domain -password mypwd -hostip HOSTIP but I get the following answer Error: Unknown Username or Incorrect Password , of course, I’m sure of my user and password
What did I miss?
Alex SApril 10, 2020 11:32:53 AMHi Michel,
I haven’t used the PowerShell module but here is a REST API script I have cobbled together from the REST API documentation.
Run it in the Powershell ISE from the Source ZVM and it will output you a list of Protected and Unprotected VMs for the site in CSV files.#———————————————————[Initialisations]——————————————————–
# ZVM on Production side used to create VPGs
$ZVMServer = “127.0.0.1:9669” #you can use local host if you run the script from the source ZVM.
# Get Credentials to connect to ZVM API
$Credentials = Get-Credential -Message “Please enter Username and Password for ZVM $($ZVMServer)”
$username = $Credentials.UserName
$password = $Credentials.GetNetworkCredential().Password#———————————————————–[Functions]————————————————————
function getxZertoSession ($zvm, $userName, $password) {
$xZertoSessionURL = $zvm+”session/add”
$authInfo = (“{0}:{1}” -f $userName,$password)
$authInfo = [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($authInfo)
$authInfo = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String($authInfo)
$headers = @{Authorization=(“Basic {0}” -f $authInfo)}
$body = ‘{“AuthenticationMethod”: “1”}’
$contentType = “application/json”
$xZertoSessionResponse = Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $xZertoSessionURL -Headers $headers -Method POST -Body $body -ContentType $contentType -UseBasicParsing
return @{“x-zerto-session”=$xZertoSessionResponse.headers.get_item(“x-zerto-session”)}
}
#———————————————————–[Ignore Cert]————————————————————
#-Certificates That are not trusted need to be accepted

using System.Net;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
public class TrustAllCertsPolicy : ICertificatePolicy {
public bool CheckValidationResult(
ServicePoint srvPoint, X509Certificate certificate,
WebRequest request, int certificateProblem) {
return true;
}
}

# Build Zerto REST API Url
$ZertoRestURL = “https://$($ZVMServer)/v1/”
# Get Zerto Session Header for Auth
$ZertoSession = getxZertoSession “$($ZertoRestURL)” $username $password#API calls
$VPGs = Invoke-RestMethod -Method Get -Uri ($ZertoRestURL+’vpgs’) -Headers $ZertoSession
$ProtectedVMs = Invoke-RestMethod -Method Get -Uri ($ZertoRestURL+’vms’) -Headers $ZertoSession
$UnprotectedVMs = Invoke-RestMethod -Method Get -Uri ($ZertoRestURL+’virtualizationsites/’+$SiteInfo.SiteIdentifier+’/vms’) -Headers $ZertoSession
$SiteInfo = Invoke-RestMethod -Method Get -Uri ($ZertoRestURL+’localsite’) -Headers $ZertoSession#Displaying Info
$VPGs | select VPGName,VMsCount
$ProtectedVMs | sort VPGName | Export-Csv -Path ‘C:\temp\ProtectedVMs.csv’
$UnprotectedVMs | sort VPGName | Export-Csv -Path ‘C:\temp\UnProtectedVMs.csv’
ii C:\tempJames MOctober 28, 2020 07:20:32 PMYou can use Zerto Analytics to export a list of protected and non protected VM’s to a csv file right from the web interface also.
Michel GOctober 29, 2020 05:46:31 AMThank you but Zerto Analytics needs a human action to export the file but my purpose was to be able to start a automatic collection of VM with a protected or not status through a Power Shell script for example
