Create Cluster
This activity creates a new cluster.
Activity Parameters
The Create Cluster activity parameters can be provided by manual inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:
Parameters:
- Cluster Name (text box editor type) (type: string): the name of the new Cluster.
- Connection (text box editor type) (type: string): VMware host connection. The output from Connect to Host activity should be used as Input here.
- Datacenter Name (text box editor type) (type: string): the name of the Datacenter.
- DRS Automation Level (combo box editor type) (type: string): the DRS automation level for the cluster (Manual, Fully Automated or Partially Automated).
- DRS Enabled (combo box editor type) (type: string): select if DRS is enabled or not for the cluster.
- Enable HA (combo box editor type) (type: string): select if HA is enabled or not for the cluster.
The Read Only Output variable are the possible output values that the activity will provide:
- Output (type: string): outputs the resulting Cluster ID. If the Cluster is not found, value is empty.
As mentioned above, the values for all the required parameters can be provided by IN arguments or variables. Below is an example of predefined arguments, ready to be used by the Create Cluster activity:
Delete Cluster
This activity deletes a cluster.
Activity Parameters
The Delete Cluster activity parameters can be provided by manual inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:
Parameters:
- Cluster ID (text box editor type) (type: string): the ID of the new Cluster. If this parameter is specified, the Datacenter Name and Cluster Name parameters are not needed.
- Cluster Name (text box editor type) (type: string): the name of the Cluster.
- Connection (text box editor type) (type: string): VMware host connection. The output from Connect to Host activity should be used as Input here.
- Datacenter Name (text box editor type) (type: string): the name of the Datacenter.
The Read Only Output variable are the possible output values that the activity will provide:
- Output (type: boolean): outputs the result of the deleting operation.
As mentioned above, the values for all the required parameters can be provided by IN arguments or variables. Below is an example of predefined arguments, ready to be used by the Delete Cluster activity:
Edit Cluster Properties
This activity edits cluster properties such as HA (enabled/disabled), DRS (enabled/disabled) and DRS Automation Level.
Activity Parameters
The Edit Cluster Properties activity parameters can be provided by manual inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:
Parameters:
- Cluster ID (text box editor type) (type: string): the ID of the cluster whose properties are being modified.
- Connection (text box editor type) (type: string): VMware host connection. The output from Connect to Host activity should be used as Input here.
- DRS Automation Level (combo box editor type) (type: string): the DRS automation level for the cluster (Manual, Fully Automated or Partially Automated).
- DRS Enabled (combo box editor type) (type: string): select if DRS is enabled or not for the cluster.
- Enable HA (combo box editor type) (type: string): select if HA is enabled or not for the cluster.
The Read Only Output variable are the possible output values that the activity will provide:
- Output (type: string): outputs the result of the execution status.
Get All Clusters
This activity all the clusters.
Activity Parameters
The Get All Clusters activity parameters can be provided by manual inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:
Parameters:
- Connection (text box editor type) (type: string): VMware host connection. The output from Connect to Host activity should be used as Input here.

The Read Only Output variable are the possible output values that the activity will provide:
- Output (type: list<string>): outputs the resulting Clusters.
- Output Details (type: collection<collection<string>>): outputs a collection containing the resulting cluster names and IDs.
Get Cluster
