VMware Storage Policy SDK Examples

The VMware Storage Policy SDK contains Java examples that show how to create and use VMware storage policies.

This manual describes examples from the VMware Storage Policy SDK. It also describes examples from the vCenter Single Sign-On SDK that support the client connection to the Storage Policy Server. This manual includes the following single sign-on examples:

• vCenter Single Sign-On Client Example. This example shows how to obtain a holder-of-key token from the ESXivCenter Single Sign-On Server.
• vCenter LoginByToken Example. This example shows how to use the token to login to vCenter Server.

The following table lists the sample files in the VMware Storage Policy SDK.
