In case of KVM region, the query

"curl -H "X-Auth-Token: <token-id>" http://<ip_address>:8774/v2/<tenant-id>/os-hypervisors/detail | python -m json.tool",

gives the list of hypervisors and more details, but in case of vmware, this return only repeated json of region name with various services that are running.

Appreciate all help, Thanks Bhavya.

nova.conf needs to be modified to change my_ip to vCenter Ip address and restart the services and then within a minute (since nova resource scheduler polls information every minute), the rest query will return vCenter ip in 'host_ip' attribute value and from there on vCenter rest api's can be used to figure out the details about hypervisors and datastores etc.

Thanks Bhavya

Can't accept my own answer after I found the right solution since I don't have enough repo points :D
