Table 1‑23. Custom Properties for Customizing Provisioned Machines with a Guest Agent
(Continued)
Custom Property Description
VirtualMachine.DiskN.Letter
Specifies the drive letter or mount point of a machine’s disk N.
The default is C. For example, to specify the letter D for Disk 1,
define the custom property as VirtualMachine.Disk1.Letter
and enter the value D. Disk numbering must be sequential.
When used in conjunction with a guest agent, this value
specifies the drive letter or mount point under which an
additional disk N is mounted by the guest agent in the guest
operating system.
VirtualMachine.DiskN.FS
For use with Windows guest agent (gugent). Specifies the file
system of the machine’s disk N. The options are NTFS (default),
FAT and FAT32. For example usage, see the
10_setupdisks.bat Windows agent script.
VirtualMachine.DiskN.FileSystem
For use with Linux guest agent (gugent). Specifies the file
system of the machine’s disk N. The options are ext3 and ext4.
The xfs value is not supported. For example usage, see the
30_DiskSetup.sh Linux agent script.
VirtualMachine.Admin.CustomizeGuestOSDelay
Specifies the time to wait after customization is complete and
before starting the guest operating system customization. The
value must be in HH:MM:SS format. If the value is not set, the
default value is one minute (00:01:00). If you choose not to
include this custom property, provisioning can fail if the virtual
machine reboots before guest agent work items are completed,
causing provisioning to fail.
VirtualMachine.Customize.WaitComplete
Set to True to prevent the provisioning workflow from sending
work items to the guest agent until all customizations are
complete.
VirtualMachine.SoftwareN.Name
Specifies the descriptive name of a software application N or
script to install or run during provisioning. This is an optional and
information-only property. It serves no real function for the
enhanced clone workflow or the guest agent but it is useful for a
custom software selection in a user interface or for software use
reporting.
