Description
Dear William,
I using vmdkManagement.pl in share disk to the guest in vcenter 5.1. It works properly.
Recently, I migrate the vm host to vcenter 6.0 and the vmdkManagement.pl fail to share disk to the guest with following error;
Can't call method "key" on an undefined value at /usr/local/sa/vmtools/vmdkManagement.pl line 131
How can I fix this issue.
thank you.
Regards
Ken

Research direction
Start by inspecting vmdkManagement.pl around line 131 and trace the value that is undefined when the script runs against vCenter 6.0. Compare this failure with the previously working vCenter 5.1 setup. Done means the script shares the disk successfully and no longer raises the reported undefined-value error.
