2.6. Adding Resources


The following examples outline two ways to add resources to the Red Hat Virtualization Manager. In these examples, the resource to be added is a virtual machine.
Example 1

In this example, an instance of the VM class is declared to represent the new virtual machine to be added. Next, the attributes of that virtual machine set to the preferred values. Finally, the new virtual machine is added to the Manager.

org.ovirt.engine.sdk.entities.VM vmParams = new org.ovirt.engine.sdk.entities.VM();

vmParams.setName("myVm");
vmParams.setCluster(api.getClusters().get("myCluster"));
vmParams.setTemplate(api.getTemplates().get("myTemplate"));
...
VM vm = api.getVMs().add(vmParams);
Example 2

In this example, an instance of the VM class is declared in the same way as Example 1. However, rather than using the get method to reference existing objects in the Manager, each attribute is referenced by declaring an instance of that attribute. Finally, the new virtual machine is added to the Manager.

org.ovirt.engine.sdk.entities.VM vmParams = new org.ovirt.engine.sdk.entities.VM();

vmParams.setName("myVm");
org.ovirt.engine.sdk.entities.Cluster clusterParam = new Cluster();
clusterParam.setName("myCluster");
vmParams.setCluster(clusterParam);
org.ovirt.engine.sdk.entities.Template templateParam = new Template();
templateParam.setName("myTemplate");
vmParams.setTemplate(templateParam);
...
VM vm = api.getVMs().add(vmParams);
