.... now I am at the server side, I try to control the vm using the
C#, I want to get the vm ip, I have already got the vm's name.
how can i get the ip address of a vm using virtual server com
interface?

i can only do this so far...
string name = CmdArgs[paramIndex];
VMVirtualMachine machine =
myVS.FindVirtualMachine(name);
IVMNetworkAdapterCollection adapters =
machine.NetworkAdapters;
foreach (IVMNetworkAdapter ada in adapters)
{
output("ada");
output(ada.EthernetAddress);
output(ada.VirtualMachine.Name);
output("net");
VMVirtualNetwork net = ada.virtualNetwork;
output(net.HostAdapter);
output(net.Name);
output("dhcp");
VMDHCPVirtualNetworkServer dhcp =
net.DHCPVirtualNetworkServer;
output(dhcp.DefaultGatewayAddress);
output(dhcp.DNSServers);


}

An IP-address is something an OS understands. Note that you are managing a
VM, not an OS. Compare to a physical computer. It has no understanding of
IP-addresses. It understands hardware related properties like MAC address.

so there is no way to get the ip address using virtual server com
interface?
