VCSAgGetContainerID2

int VCSAgGetContainerID2()

This API retrieves the ID of the container.

Based on the thread that is implementing the entry point, the agent identifies the resource for which this API is invoked and returns the container ID for that resource. The container ID is the ID of the container specified in the ContainerInfo attribute as the value of the Name key.

Return Values

• -1, if the resource or container name is NULL or the container is DOWN or the container is not applicable to the OS version the agent is running on.
• Non-negative container-id, if the container name is valid and the container is UP.
