研究方向
To get a list of VMs on a specific ESXi host using pyVmomi, first retrieve all hosts via the `content.viewManager.CreateContainerView()` with the `HostSystem` type. Then iterate through hosts, and for each host, access its VM property (e.g., `host.vm`) to get the list of virtual machines. Refer to existing samples like 'samples/getallvms.py' for similar patterns. Check pyVmomi documentation for the `HostSystem` managed object and its `vm` property.
