Now I see my fallacy. Thanks again for clarification. Never mind.

Hi René,

From UI, you navigate to any VM, click Nics, then use “Add Network to VM” 
button. 

You’re basically sending the addNicToVirtualMachine API call.

Perfect! Thanks for the clarification. I still wonder how to do it but

Hi Remi

Perfect! Thanks for the clarification. I still wonder how to do it but
that is another story :)

Hi René,

I just posted some screenshots on the PR that show a VM can be part of more 
than one VPC (mail wouldn’t allow screenshots) so please have a look at Github.

I need this for the cloudstack ansible modules to fully determine VMs

they can be named identically.

(I have currently implemented a workaround to go though listnetworks for
every VM, but this is a very expensive operation, and that is why I
wanted to solve it by returning the VPC id on the VM level.)

I had a discussion with ustcweizhou which says that a VM can be part of
multiple VPCs and therefore it would not make sense to add vpcid to the
response. I disagree, a VM can not be in different VPCs.

Can anyone join the discussion? Is it possible a VM can be in different
VPCs?

Thanks for the clarification

Return VPC ID of VM

[Rene Moser]

Hi

I created https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1999 to return the
vpcid the VM belongs to in listVirtualMachines-

I need this for the cloudstack ansible modules to fully determine VMs
uniquely as listVirtualMachines returns all VMs (non-vpc and vpc) and
they can be named identically.

(I have currently implemented a workaround to go though listnetworks for
every VM, but this is a very expensive operation, and that is why I
wanted to solve it by returning the VPC id on the VM level.)

I had a discussion with ustcweizhou which says that a VM can be part of
multiple VPCs and therefore it would not make sense to add vpcid to the
response. I disagree, a VM can not be in different VPCs.

Can anyone join the discussion? Is it possible a VM can be in different
VPCs?

Thanks for the clarification

René
