Use this skill whenever the user needs to manage VMware storage — datastores, iSCSI targets, and vSAN clusters. Directly handles: browse datastores, scan for deployable images (OVA/ISO), configure iSCSI adapters and targets, check vSAN health and capacity, read-only Fibre Channel HBA/WWPN inventory and multipath path state. Always use this skill for "list datastores", "add iSCSI target", "check vSAN health", "browse datastore files", "scan for OVA images", "dead paths", "FC HBA WWPN" when the…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add vmware-skills/vmware-storage/vmware-storage@sha256:4a9fc37dc3de3243

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261101.7cccd58, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
