Retrieve or Update Organization Settings
Organization settings define organization policies such as default lease settings for vApps and how incorrect
login attempts are handled. They also configure how the organization uses services such as email and LDAP,
and define the organization's federated identity provider if it uses one.
An AdminOrg element contains an OrgSettings element, which contains the following elements, each of which
represents a group of related organization settings. Default settings are inherited from the containing cloud.
GeneralOrgSettings
Specifies quotas for stored and deployed virtual machines owned by members
of this organization. Specifies default behaviors for virtual machines in the
organization, and controls the ability to publish catalogs.
VAppLeaseSettings
Controls storage and deployment leases for vApps.
VAppTemplateLeaseSettin
gs
Controls storage and deployment leases for vApp templates.
