Property Description
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.
VirtualMachine.Admin.ThinProvision
Determines whether thin provisioning is used on ESX compute
resources. Disk provisioning is abstracted from the underlying storage.
Set to True to use thin provisioning. Set to False to use standard
provisioning. This property is for virtual provisioning.
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.
