Hi Piotr,
You can directly use names to rename the object like in your case datastore
- community.vmware.vmware_object_rename:
new_name: "DS_117_1"
object_name: "ds_171_2"
object_type: Datastore
You can gather information about Managed object id for the datastore using
vmware_datastore_info as below
- name: Provide information about datastore {{ datastore_name }}
community.vmware.vmware_datastore_info:
datacenter: Asia-Datacenter1
name: "{{ datastore_name }}"
properties:
- _moId
schema: vsphere
delegate_to: localhost
register: datastore_info
- set_fact:
datastore_moid: "{{ datastore_info.datastores[0]['moid'] }}"
when: datastore_info.datastores[0]['moid'] is defined
