SCSI disk information about each ESXi server will be returned for the given cluster.
This parameter is required if esxi_hostname is not specified.
esxi_hostname
string
Name of the host system to work with.
SCSI disk information about this ESXi server will be returned.
This parameter is required if cluster_name is not specified.
hostname
string
The hostname or IP address of the vSphere vCenter or ESXi server.
If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable VMWARE_HOST will be used instead.
Environment variable support added in Ansible 2.6.
