Hi, I'm trying to use python and the fantastic WMI module to manage Hyper-V virtual machine resources and am having problems trying to modify properties of an instance to pass back via WMI.
The following code in powershell is what I need to emulate in python: $vmms = gwmi -namespace root\virtualization Msvm_VirtualSystemManagementService $hardDisk = gwmi -namespace root\virtualization Msvm_ResourceAllocationSettingData -filter InstanceID='Microsoft:Definition\\353B3BE8-310C-4CF4-839E-4E1B14616136\\Default'" $hardDisk.Address = 0 $vmms.AddVirtualSystemResources($vm,@($hardDisk.GetText(1))) The equivalent python code below produces a COM error "Provider is not capable of the attempted operation" when trying to change object properties. import wmi c = wmi.WMI(namespace="virtualization", find_classes=False) VMMS = c.Msvm_VirtualSystemManagementService()[-1] HD = c.Msvm_ResourceAllocationSettingData(InstanceID='Microsoft:Definition\\353B3BE8-310C-4CF4-839E-4E1B14616136\\Default') HD.Address = 0 VMMS.AddVirtualSystemResources([HD.gettext_(1),], VM) I am sure that it is something simple and obvious that I am doing incorrectly so apologies in advance for my stupidity. Any help or suggestions will be gratefully received.
