2.11. Modifying Sub-Resources

The following example outlines how to modify sub-resources. In this example, the name of a disk with the name 'test_Disk1' belonging to a virtual machine with the name 'test' is changed to 'test_Disk1_updated'.

Procedure 2.7. Updating a Sub-Resource

  1. Declare an instance of the resource whose sub-resource is to be modified: 
    VM vm = api.getVMs().get("test");
  2. Declare an instance of the sub-resource to be modified: 
    VMDisk disk = vm.getDisks().get("test_Disk1");
  3. Set the new value of the attribute: 
    disk.setAlias("test_Disk1_updated");
  4. Update the sub-resource: 
    VMDisk updateDisk = disk.update();
