SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill simplifies the process of querying and understanding your cloud provider's inventory of virtual machines, networks, and storage resources.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Resource Discovery: Identify available resources (VMs, networks, storage, etc.) across different cloud providers like vSphere, oVirt, OpenStack, EC2, and OpenShift.
  • Data Formatting: Retrieve inventory data in various formats (markdown, JSON, table, YAML, planvms) suitable for different downstream uses.
  • Network and Storage Mapping: Facilitates the creation of network and storage mappings by providing structured inventory data for source and target environments.

Quick Start

Use mtv_read to get a markdown list of all available VM resources from your vSphere provider.
