I am trying to get dynamic inventory working. I have not found much on the internet or in the docs that give a high level overview as to how the configs and files relate. Any tips? Can I get some suggestions on my dynamic inventory config? Is there a simple way to test and determine whether these two vmware python libraries are working as required? ----- From the link below ------------------- Requires ‘vSphere Automation SDK’ and ‘vCloud Suite SDK’ libraries to be installed on the given controller machine.

on the config side your indentation seems wrong (but that might just be an email issue), your main problem though is that you need the vmware sdk installed on the same python that ansible is using to execute.
