Unable to list VM details from SRM Recovery Groups

[ganapa2000]

Hi,

I am trying to list VMs details from SRM Recovery Group, and I am getting the below error.

Please help!!

# Connect to vCenter Server and SRM Server
connect-viserver "Myvcenter"

# Define API variable
$SrmConnection = Connect-SrmServer
$SrmApi = $SrmConnection.ExtensionData

# Specify the name of the recovery plan
$recoveryPlanName = "Mgmt_Recovery_plan1"

# Get the recovery plan by name
$recoveryPlan = $SrmApi.Recovery.ListPlans().GetInfo() | Where-Object {$_.Name -eq $recoveryPlanName}

if ($recoveryPlan -eq $null) {
Write-Host "Recovery plan '$recoveryPlanName' not found."
} else {
# List VMs in the recovery plan
$vmList = $SrmApi.Recovery.ListPlanItems($recoveryPlan.PlanId).GetInfo() | ForEach-Object {
$planItem = $_
$vmId = $planItem.GetLocation().VmId
$vm = Get-VM -Id $vmId
$recoveryStatus = $planItem.GetState().RecoveryStatus
$protectionGroup = $SrmApi.Protection.GetProtectionGroup($planItem.ProtectionGroupId).GetInfo()

[PSCustomObject]@{
VMName = $vm.Name
RecoveryStatus = $recoveryStatus
ProtectionGroupName = $protectionGroup.Name
Priority = $planItem.Priority
FinalPowerState = $planItem.FinalPowerState
}
}

# Display VM information
$vmList | Format-Table -AutoSize
}

# Disconnect from vCenter Server and SRM Server
Disconnect-VIServer -Server * -Confirm:$false
Disconnect-SrmServer -Server * -Confirm:$false

Where did you find that ListPlanItems method?
It doesn't exist, which is exactly what the error is telling you.
See the SRM API reference.

LucD,

After I made the changes referring to API guide, still I am getting below error

Cannot find an overload for "ListPlans" and the argument count: "1".

LucD,

could you please help me, how to get the VM details from Recovery Plan.

I do not use SRM, so I can't really test anything.
Did you already have a go with the  ?
There are a number of cmdlets in there that might help.

Download and install SRM PowerCLI Cmdlets from https://developer.vmware.com/samples/2512/srm-powercli-cmdlets

Thank you very much for your help. I was able to import the module and run using powercli 12.x 🙂
