# API reconfigures VM's CPU

## <mark style="color:green;">**Overview**</mark> <a href="#overview" id="overview"></a>

In this manual, you will find detailed information on how to prepare information, get the VM’s CPU information, and Reconfigure the VM’s CPU.

{% step %}

#### **Step 1: Prepare Information**

Login IAM portal -> vCD portal: collect the information

* **{{vcd\_url}}**<br>

  <figure><img src="/files/VTufGkIpJQDSiKor1oom" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>
* **{{vm-uuid}}:** select VM -> take a look vm uuid on url<br>

  <figure><img src="/files/0ym1Jgf5AAHBLwNqZLAM" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>
* **{{Bearer Token}}:** Please follow **“Api token login”** document
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### **Step 2: Get VM’s CPU information**

* GET https\://{{vcd\_url}}/api/vApp/{{vm-uuid}}/virtualHardwareSection/cpu
* Authorization: {{Bearer Token }}
* Headers:

\- ‘Accept’: \*/\*;version=37.2

\- ‘Content-type’: application/vnd.vmware.vcloud.rasdItem+xml<br>

<figure><img src="/files/ZbEZG4ptSpnwKONHzS1P" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* SEND request.

Copy **Response Body**
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Step 3: Reconfigure VM’s CPU**

**Postman:**

* PUT https\://{{vcd\_url}}/api/vApp/{{vm-uuid}}/virtualHardwareSection/cpu
* Authorization: {{Bearer Token }}
* Headers:

\- 'Accept: \*/\*;version=37.2

\- ‘Content-type’: application/vnd.vmware.vcloud.rasdItem+xml

Body: *{{select raw -> copy and paste* *response body from Get VM’s CPU information }}*

Ex:

```
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<ns4:Item xmlns:ovf="http://schemas.dmtf.org/ovf/envelope/1" xmlns:rasd="http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-schema/2/CIM_ResourceAllocationSettingData" xmlns:common="http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/common" xmlns:ns4="http://www.vmware.com/vcloud/v1.5"
    <rasd:Reservation>0</rasd:Reservation>
    <rasd:ResourceSubType xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:nil="true"/>
    <rasd:ResourceType>3</rasd:ResourceType>
…………………………………………………………………………..
………………………………………………………………………….
    <rasd:VirtualQuantity>8</rasd:VirtualQuantity>
    <rasd:VirtualQuantityUnits xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:nil="true"/>
    <rasd:Weight>0</rasd:Weight>
    <vmw:CoresPerSocket ovf:required="false">2</vmw:CoresPerSocket>
type="application/vnd.vmware.vcloud.rasdItem+json"/>
</ns4:Item>
```

\==============================================================================

Find line “<mark style="color:blue;">\<rasd:VirtualQuantity>8\</rasd:VirtualQuantity></mark>” and edit the number, it’s the CPU number.<br>

<figure><img src="/files/L9GozXOPJj0ZUCZIJDtJ" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* SEND request.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### **Step 4: Verify**

* **Get VM’s CPU information**

GET https\://{{vcd\_url}}/api/vApp/{{vm-uuid}}/virtualHardwareSection/cpu

* **Check on vCD portal**

Login IAM -> vCD portal-> select VM-> Compute
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.higiocloud.vn/compute/4.-hi-gio-api/api-reconfigures-vms-cpu.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
