A Python program that synchronizes NSX-T tags between VMs in a local manager with their SRM (VMware Site Recovery Manager) placeholder counterparts in another local manager. It matches VMs simply using the display name of the VM.
Run this program using a scheduler on a frequency of your choice (ex. every hour)
note this program currently only supports basic auth and only supports NSX-T
usage: sync.py [-h] -hS NSX_HOST_SOURCE -uS USER_SOURCE -pS PASSWORD_SOURCE -hD NSX_HOST_DESTINATION -uD
USER_DESTINATION -pD PASSWORD_DESTINATION
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-hS NSX_HOST_SOURCE, --nsx_host_source NSX_HOST_SOURCE
NSX host to pull tags from
-uS USER_SOURCE, --user_source USER_SOURCE
User to authenticate as to the source host
-pS PASSWORD_SOURCE, --password_source PASSWORD_SOURCE
Password to authenticate with to the source host
-hD NSX_HOST_DESTINATION, --nsx_host_destination NSX_HOST_DESTINATION
NSX host to replicate tags to
-uD USER_DESTINATION, --user_destination USER_DESTINATION
User to authenticate as to the source host
-pD PASSWORD_DESTINATION, --password_destination PASSWORD_DESTINATION
Password to authenticate with to the source host
python sync.py --nsx_host_source localmanager1.domain.local --user_source admin --password_source P@ssw0rd --nsx_host_destination localmanager2.domain.local --user_destination admin --password_destination S3cur3!
Connected to NSX manager localmanager1.domain.local.
