Property Description
VirtualMachine.Admin.Datastore.Cluster.Resourc
eLeaseDurationSec
When provisioning to multiple VMs and using SDRS, specifies a value
in seconds, in the range of 30 to 3600, for reserving storage resources
during the RecommendDataStore API call. You can add this property
to a business group or blueprint or when you request provisioning. The
lease lock is only applied to the datastore that is used by the
deployment, not all datastores in the storage cluster. The lease lock is
released when provisioning either completes or fails.
If not specified, no lock is applied to the storage resources at
provisioning time.
Because of memory size considerations, requesting more than 10
VMs simultaneously can cause provisioning failures.
VirtualMachine.Admin.NetworkInterfaceType
Indicates the network adapter type that is supported and emulated by
the guest operating system. Use to create a new virtual machine and
assign a specific adapter type for a template cloning operation. Use to
modify the network settings of a newly provisioned virtual machine.
The following options are available:

E1000 (default)

VirtualMachine.Admin.Name
Specifies the generated machine name for vSphere, for example
CodyVM01. When creating custom workflows or plug-ins for
customizing a virtual machine name, set this property to match the
name of the virtual machine. This is an internal input property for the
agent to name the virtual machine.
Note This property is for vSphere only.
The value specified in the blueprint has no effect on this property. This
property is not intended to be used to prompt the user. Use the
HostName property to prompt the user. If the property is set at runtime,
the container name that is created in the hypervisor might not match
the item record name.
VirtualMachine.Admin.UUID
Specifies the UUID of the machine. The guest agent records the value
when the machine is created. The value becomes read-only. The
value in the blueprint or property group has no effect on this property.
VirtualMachine.Admin.AgentID
Specifies the UUID of the guest agent. The guest agent recorsd the
value when the machine is created. The value becomes read-only.
The value in the blueprint or property group has no effect on this
property.
VirtualMachine.Admin.Owner
Specifies the user name of the machine owner.
VirtualMachine.Admin.Approver
Specifies the user name of the group manager who approved the
machine request.
VirtualMachine.Admin.Description
Specifies the description of the machine as entered or modified by its
owner or an administrator.
VirtualMachine.Admin.EncryptPasswords
If set to True, specifies that the administrator passwords are
encrypted.
