NOTE: When you have static assigned IP and if you have DNS

configured in template, DNS use the IP to lookup the hostname and

use it as hostname for the deployment.

OS Image Specifies the target repository where the OS image install files are

located. The default repositories are ESXi. The additional repositories are

shown if the user created them on the ASM appliance.

7, Cent OS 7 from this release.

NOTE: If you select an operating system from the OS Image drop-

down menu, the field NTP Server is displayed.. This is an optional
