Java Example of Configuring the CPU and Memory of a Virtual Machine

This example is based on the code in the CpuConfiguration.java and MemoryConfiguration.java sample files.

Note: For a complete and up-to-date version of the sample code, see the vSphere Automation SDK Java samples at GitHub.

    private String vmName;
    private String vmId;
    private Memory memoryService;
    private Cpu cpuService;

        this.memoryService = vapiAuthHelper.getStubFactory().createStub(Memory.class,
                    this.sessionStubConfig);

        this.vmId = VmHelper.getVM(vapiAuthHelper.getStubFactory(), sessionStubConfig, vmName);

        // Update the memory size of the virtual machine
        MemoryTypes.UpdateSpec memoryUpdateSpec = new MemoryTypes.UpdateSpec.Builder().setSizeMiB(8 * 1024l).build();
        memoryService.update(this.vmId, memoryUpdateSpec);
        memoryInfo = memoryService.get(this.vmId);

         // allow CPU cores to be added to the virtual machine while it is running
