Description

Hi everyone,

I use [datastore] xxx/xxx.vmx as vm name, but a RuntimeError raised "Managed Object [xxx]xxx/xxx.vmx not found". And other question is for the parameter --unitnumber which means NIC number, where i can get it?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Inspect the script's argument parsing for vm name; trace how it resolves datastore paths to VM objects. Also, check the script documentation or pyVmomi API for the unitnumber parameter.
