Getting IP and Subnet

Hi,
I am writing a script to query Zerto for VM Source IP/Segment and also Target in DR after Fail Over same VM IP/Segment (since it might change). We didn’t find any way to do it with Zerto CLI. Can you help?
Thanks
Erez

Thanks
Shashidhar KMarch 23, 2017 05:24:27 PMHi Erez, sorry for the delay.
You should use the VC API or vSphere PowerCLI to get the source IPs.
As for the destination configs, you can get this through the VPGManagement API (there is reference for ZVM for vSphere VPGManagement API reference from the online help).
Thanks!
Harry
Follow me: www.twitter.com/HarrySiiiDrew AMarch 23, 2017 11:17:47 PMThere’s a script in the Zerto White Paper Automating Zerto Replication with PowerShell and REST APIs v2.0.pdf that does what you’re looking to do. I’ve used it to pull these settings and modify them in bulk.

I am using this api “<span class=”CodeInLine”>https://</span><span class=”CodeInLine”>zvm_ip</span><span class=”CodeInLine”>:</span><span class=”CodeInLine”>port</span><span class=”CodeInLine”>/v1/vpgSettings/{</span><span class=”Italic”>vpgSettingsIdentifier</span><span class=”CodeInLine”>}/vms/{</span><span class=”Italic”>vmIdentifier</span><span class=”CodeInLine”>}/nics/{</span><span class=”Italic”>nicIdentifier}” </span>
And I get the following information.It contains the nic setting for failover and failovertest NIC of the VM. But not the current IP and subnet of VM.
