Scenario: Allow Requesters to Specify Machine Host Name
As a blueprint architect, you want to allow your users to choose their own machine names when they
request your blueprints. So you edit your existing CentOS vSphere blueprint to add the Hostname custom
property and configure it to prompt users for a value during their requests.
Note If your fabric administrator creates a property group that contains the required custom properties
and you include it in your blueprint, you do not need to individually add the custom properties to the
blueprint.
