ModifyVirtualSystemResources method of the Msvm_VirtualSystemManagementService class

Articolo
05/31/2018

Modifies the setting data for existing resources on a virtual computer system.

Syntax

uint32 ModifyVirtualSystemResources(
  [in]  CIM_ComputerSystem REF ComputerSystem,
  [in]  string                 ResourceSettingData[],
  [out] CIM_ConcreteJob    REF Job
);

Parameters

ComputerSystem [in]

Type: CIM_ComputerSystem

A reference to the virtual computer system whose resources are to be modified.

ResourceSettingData [in]

Type: string[]

An array of embedded instances of the CIM_ResourceAllocationSettingData class that describe the resources to be modified on the virtual computer system.

Job [out]

Type: CIM_ConcreteJob

An optional reference that is returned if the operation is executed asynchronously. If present, the returned reference to an instance of CIM_ConcreteJob can be used to monitor progress and to obtain the result of the method.

Return value

Type: uint32

If this method is executed synchronously, it returns 0 if it succeeds. If this method is executed asynchronously, it returns 4096 and the Job output parameter can be used to track the progress of the asynchronous operation. Any other return value indicates an error.

Completed with No Error (0)
Method Parameters Checked - Job Started (4096)
Failed (32768)
Access Denied (32769)
Not Supported (32770)
Status is unknown (32771)

Remarks

Access to the Msvm_VirtualSystemManagementService class might be restricted by UAC Filtering. For more information, see User Account Control and WMI.

Examples

The following C# sample modifies the settings for the resources of a virtual system. The referenced utilities can be found in Common Utilities for the Virtualization Samples.

[!Important]
To function correctly, the following code must be run on the VM host server, and must be run with Administrator privileges.

using System.Management;
