Hi Guys TSM Server 7.1.1 AIX, TSM VE 7.1.1 linux X64
This shop has issues with us using the vSphere plugin as it requires too many permissions. We cannot move to later VE clients with expanded facilities because of a dependency on vCenter 5.5 So far, we have been managing by editing the dsm.sys files, but that is getting to be unsustainable. The docs describe a VMCLI interface that may suit when scripted. The idea would be to write Powershell/python scripts to query vmware for a list of vms, apply some filters that would allow includes and excludes from a database or maybe json files and generate a list of VMs to backup invoked by vmcli. Is anyone using vmcli this way? Any war stories to tell? Maybe its working well for you.
