getinventory error

[danilansible]

Hi,

Deployed new version 0.99g codename “Ravenholm”
Getting below error while running refresh inventory and offline inventory too shows nothing.

[2021/04/20 13:28:14] /root/getInventory.pl line249 - [INFO] Start processing vCenter myvc.mydomain.com
[2021/04/20 13:28:26] /root/getInventory.pl line160 - DIE Can't call method "value" on an undefined value at /root/getInventory.pl line 160.

160 my $cluster = $h_cluster{($h_hostcluster{$vm_view->{'runtime.host'}->value} ? $h_ hostcluster{$vm_view->{'runtime.host'}->value} : "domain-c000")};

Can someone help please

[rschitz]

do you have orphaned vms on this host?

[danilansible]

@rschitz Yes Raphael

[rschitz]

that should be filtered by the {'runtime.connectionState' => "connected"} filter but i'll add an eval arround the vm processing to fix this, thanks for your feedback. i'll let you know when you can test the new getInventory.pl script

[rschitz]

can you try this one please? https://github.com/sexibytes/sexigraf/blob/927692941e8e4a239b01f0bb5155910b38658759/root/getInventory.pl

@rschitz Thank you so much

I'm not sure if the orphan vms get deleted on a regular scheduled intervals.
So even though the error showed later inventory was fine and the error too went away.
