With the workflows from the Others category, you can activate and deactivate Fault Tolerance (FT), extract virtual machine information, and find orphaned virtual machines.
To access these workflows, navigate to and enter the vcenter, virtual_machine_management and others tags in the workflow search box.
| Workflow Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Disable FT | Deactivates Fault Tolerance for a specified virtual machine. |
| Enable FT | Activates Fault Tolerance for a specified virtual machine. |
| Extract virtual machine information | Returns the virtual machine folder, host system, resource pool, compute resource, datastore, hard drive sizes, CPU and memory, network, and IP address for a given virtual machine. Might require VMware Tools. |
| Find orphaned virtual machines | Lists all virtual machines in an orphaned state in the Automation Orchestrator inventory. Lists the VMDK and VMTX files for all datastores in the Automation Orchestrator inventory that have no association with any virtual machines in the inventory. Sends the lists by email (optional). |
| Get VM by Name and BIOS UUID | Searches virtual machines by name and then filters the result with particular universally unique identifier (UUID) in order to identify a unique virtual machine.
Note: This workflow is needed when DynamicOps calls
Automation Orchestrator workflows having input parameters of
VC:VirtualMachine type in order to make the correspondence between a particular DynamicOps and
Automation Orchestrator virtual machine.
