ESXi OS plugin

ESXi partitioning varies between versions. Generally, specific partition numbers have special meaning.

The following is a list of known partition numbers:

1: EFI boot 5: BOOTBANK1 6: BOOTBANK2 7: vmkcore (ESXi 6), OSDATA / LOCKER (ESXi 7) 8: store (ESXi 6), HDD VMFS datastore (ESXi 7) 9: vmkcore (ESXi 6)

classmethod detect(target: dissect.target.target.Target) → dissect.target.filesystem.Filesystem | None

Provide detection of this OSPlugin on a given filesystem.

Parameters:

fs – Filesystem to detect the OS on.

Returns:

The root filesystem / sysvol when found.

classmethod create(target: dissect.target.target.Target, sysvol: dissect.target.filesystem.Filesystem) → ESXiPlugin

Initiate this OSPlugin with the given target and detected filesystem.

Parameters:

  • target – The Target object.

  • sysvol – The filesystem that was detected in the detect() function.

Returns:

An instantiated version of the OSPlugin.

hostname() → str

Return the target’s hostname.

Returns:

The hostname as string.

domain() → str | None
ips() → list[str]

Return the IP addresses configured in the target.

Returns:

The IPs as list.

version() → str | None

Return the target’s OS version.

Returns:

The OS version as string.

vm_inventory() → Iterator[VirtualMachineRecord]
esxconf(path: str, as_json: bool) → None
configstore() → dict[str, Any]
