Reservation Policy Custom Property Definition
You add a custom property denition to retrieve reservation policy names that are applicable to the
requesting users when they select the policy in the request form. The reservation policy selector custom
property denition uses a vRealize Orchestrator action to retrieve the values.
Limitations
Plan for the following limitations when you use the reservation policy selector custom property.
n
The name of the custom property must be ReservationPolicyID. This name is required. You cannot
create multiple property denitions for the reservation policy selector.
n
The action retrieves all reservation policies applicable to the requesting user without validating that it
applies to the target endpoint, for example a vCenter Server instance or some other platform. A service
catalog user might select a reservation that is not applicable to the selected blueprint target system. If
the user selects the wrong reservation, the catalog request fails.
n
The action retrieves reservation policies for the requesting user only. If you submit a request on behalf
of another user, the reservation policies are for you. For example, Reservation 1 and Reservation 3 are
associated with Business Group 1, so the BG 1 users see only Reservations 1 and 3, not 2.
