Configure Application Properties
You can define new values for node properties, such as host name or vCPU. You can also define new
values for application component and service properties that have the Overridable at Deployment check
box selected in the application blueprint.
For successful deployment, assign a value to the required node properties from the library, blueprint, or
deployment profile. The system defines node properties, such as memory allocation and number of
CPUs, but you can override them. For example, a needed service might have a JVM heap size of 512
MB. But for a large deployment, you can override that setting and change the size to 1024 MB.
You can set a host name so that the virtual machine can be easily identified in the vCloud Director or
vRealize Automation deployments. To generate unique characters you can append the ${random}
expression at the end of a host name.
The cluster size of a clustered node can also be defined with new values.
