The Retrieve Cluster Virtual Machines operation retrieves a list of virtual machines and virtual machine templates in the specified cluster.

The following table describes the elements for this request.

Adapter request elements for Retrieve Cluster Virtual Machines operation

Element	Definition	Required
`<operation-type>`	Defines the type of operation: `Cluster`	Yes
`<operation-name>`	Defines the name of operation: `Retrieve_Cluster_Virtual_Machines`	Yes
`<soap-url>`	Specifies the URL for the remote SOAP service running on the VMware VirtualCenter If the `<soap-url>` element is not specified, the request uses the VirtualCenter Server details specified in the adapter configuration. Default format for HTTPS: https://<hostName>:<port>/sdk/vim Default format for HTTP: http://<hostName>:<port>/sdk/vim Note If you want to use an HTTP value, you might need to change the configuration of the VMware Infrastructure application.	No
`<transport>`	Specifies the transport protocol for the message If the `<transport>` element is not provided, the request uses the VirtualCenter Server details specified in the adapter configuration. Valid values: https-rpc (default), http-rpc Note If the value of the `<transport>` element is https-rpc, you must install the security certificate for the VMware Virtual Center to the keystore of the peer on which the adapter is enabled.	No
`<user-name>`	Specifies the user name that is used for HTTP basic authentication on the VMware Virtual Center If no user name is specified, the request is executed with the user name that is specified in the configuration.	No
`<password>`	Specifies the password corresponding to `<user-name>`	Conditional; required if`<user-name>` is specified
`<parameters>`	Contains the `<cluster-compute-resource>` element required to execute the operation	Yes
`<cluster-compute-resource>`	Specifies the name of the cluster whose virtual machines you want to retrieve Valid value: Any string	Yes

Note

When you specify the <retrieve-all-vm-properties> element as true, all properties for all the virtual machines in the cluster are retrieved. If false, (by default, the <retrieve-all-vm-properties> element is not specified), the default Retrieve Cluster Virtual Machines operation is run, which retrieves only the name and type for all the virtual machines in the cluster.

The following code sample shows a sample adapter request for the Retrieve Cluster Virtual Machines operation when the <retrieve-all-vm-properties> element is set to false.

Sample adapter request for the Retrieve Cluster Virtual Machines operation

<vmware-infrastructure-request>
    <operation-type>Cluster</operation-type>
    <operation-name>Retrieve_Cluster_Virtual_Machines</operation-name>
    <parameters>
      <cluster-compute-resource>Test Cluster</cluster-compute-resource>

The following code sample shows the response for the sample Retrieve Cluster Virtual Machines operation.
