Property Description
VirtualMachine.Storage.AllocationType
Stores collected groups to a single datastore. A distributed
environment stores disks round-robin style. Specify one of the
following values:
n
Collected
Keep all disks together.
n
Distributed
Allow disks to be placed on any datastore or datastore cluster
that is available in the reservation.
For an example of how to use the
VirtualMachine.Storage.AllocationType property to create
datastore clusters, see the Keeping Multiple Disks Together blog
post.
VirtualMachine.Storage.Cluster.Automation.Enabled
If set to True, the storage cluster automation on the machine is
enabled. If set to False, then storage cluster automation is
disabled on the machine. The storage cluster automation type is
determined by the
VirtualMachine.Storage.Cluster.Automation.Behavior
custom property.
VirtualMachine.Storage.Cluster.Automation.Behavior
Specifies an SDRS behavior type when
VirtualMachine.Storage.Cluster.Automation.Enabled is
set to True.
The available behavior type values are automated or manual.
The
VirtualMachine.Storage.Cluster.Automation.Enabled
and
VirtualMachine.Storage.Cluster.Automation.Behavior
properties are set after the machine is provisioned and after
inventory data collection is finished. If automation is disabled,
VirtualMachine.Storage.Cluster.Automation.Behavior is
not present on the machine.
VirtualMachine.Storage.ReserveMemory
Set to True to manage vSwap storage allocation to ensure
availability and set allocation in the reservation. vSwap allocation
is considered when you create or reconfigure a virtual machine.
vSwap allocation checking is only available for vSphere
endpoints.
Note If you do not specify the
VirtualMachine.Storage.ReserveMemory custom property
when you create or provision the machine from
vRealize Automation, swap space availability is not ensured. If
you add the property for an already provisioned machine, and the
allocated reservation is full, the storage allocated in the
reservation might exceed the actual allocated storage.
VirtualMachine.VDI.Type
Specifies the type of virtual desktop infrastructure.
For XenDesktop provisioning, set to XenDesktop.
