How to access the VxRail Datastore outside the web GUI.

I am in the process of migrating xenserver Windows VMs to VxRail. I managed to bring the VM in, but When I tried to boot up, it keep crashing. 

I was reading this: https://community.citrix.com/forums/topic/224286-converting-xenserver-70-vm-to-vmware-60-wo-bsod/

Likely, I need to edit the vmdk file within datastore. is there anyway to access it to edit.

Hi,

I think this depends on what you want to do :) when I moved VMs to VxRail I converted the qcow2 images on a normal linux via qemu-img and then uploaded them via curl to datastore (wanted to use the sdk or ansible but there seems to be an issue with python and uploads to vsphere). https://github.com/vmware/pyvmomi/issues/1064#issuecomment-1961377382
