VMOMI

Virtualization Management Object Management Infrastructure

• What is it? The VMOMI infrastructure is what backs the network services you need to talk to in order to work with vSphere products like vCenter and ESXi.

• How do I use it? pyVmomi is the Python language binding for the Virtualization Management Object Management Infrastructure's network exposed API. You may also use the WSDL bindings natively in Python.

• Where do I learn about the API? There are a few class name changes to watch for but, the best resource (as of this writing) is actually the VMware vSphere API Reference Documentation which thoroughly documents the bare SOAP bindings of these API. We hope to provide pyVmomi specific documentation in time but the majority of such documentation would be identical.
