Table 1‑44. Custom Properties V Table (Continued)
Property Description
VCNS.SecurityGroup.Names.blueprint_name When using NSX, specifies the Edge Pool with which to
associate the blueprint.
VCNS.SecurityTag.Names.name Specifies the NSX security tag or tags to which the virtual
machine is associated during provisioning. The value is a security
tag name or a list of names separated by commas. Names are
case-sensitive.
Appending a name allows you to create multiple versions of the
property, which can be used separately or in combination. For
example, the following properties can list security tags intended
for general use, for the sales force, and for support:
n
VCNS.SecurityTag.Names
n
VCNS.SecurityTag.Names.sales
n
VCNS.SecurityTag.Names.support
VirtualMachine.Admin.UseGuestAgent
If the guest agent is installed as a service on a template for
cloning, set to True on the machine blueprint to enable the guest
agent service on machines cloned from that template. When the
machine is started, the guest agent service is started. Set to
False to disable the guest agent. If set to False, the enhanced
clone workfow will not use the guest agent for guest operating
system tasks, reducing its functionality to
VMwareCloneWorkflow. If not specified or set to anything other
than False, the enhanced clone workflow sends work items to the
guest agent.
VirtualMachine.Admin.NameCompletion
Specifies the domain name to include in the fully qualified domain
name of the machine that the RDP or SSH files generate for the
user interface options Connect Using RDP or Connect Using
SSH option. For example, set the value to myCompany.com to
generate the fully qualified domain name my-machine-
name.myCompany.com in the RDP or SSH file.
VirtualMachine.Admin.ConnectAddress
Specifies the RDP connection address of the machine to which
an RDP file is downloaded when the user interface option
Connect Using RDP is used or attached to automatic emails. Do
not use in a blueprint or property group unless you require the
user to be prompted and you have not supplied a default value.
VirtualMachine.Admin.ConnectAddress.Regex
Used by a vRealize Automation administrator to define a regular
expression to match an IP address for terminal connections, such
as an RDP connection. If matched, the IP address is saved under
the VirtualMachine.Admin.ConnectAddress custom property.
Otherwise, the first available IP address is designated.
For example, setting the property value to 10.10.0. allows
selection of an IP address from a 10.10.0.* subnet that is
assigned to the virtual machine. If the subnet has not been
assigned, the property is ignored.
This property is available for use with OpenStack.
