Table 2‑6. Custom Properties for Customizing FlexClone Machines with a Guest Agent
(Continued)
Custom Property Description
VirtualMachine.Customize.WaitComplete
Set to True to prevent the provisioning workflow from sending
work items to the guest agent until all customizations have been
completed.
VirtualMachine.SoftwareN.ScriptPath Specifies the full path to an application's install script. The path
must be a valid absolute path as seen by the guest operating
system and must include the name of the script file name.
You can pass custom property values as parameters to the
script by inserting {CustomPropertyName} in the path string. For
example, if you have a custom property named ActivationKey
whose value is 1234, the script path is D:\InstallApp.bat –
key {ActivationKey}. The guest agent runs the command
D:\InstallApp.bat –key 1234. Your script file can then be
programmed to accept and use this value.
Custom Properties for Linked Clone Blueprints
vRealize Automation includes custom properties that you can use to provide additional controls for linked
clone blueprints.
Certain vRealize Automation custom properties are required to use with linked clone blueprints.
Table 2‑7. Custom Properties for Linked Clone Blueprints
Custom Property Description
VirtualMachine.DiskN.Storage Specifies the datastore on which to place the machine disk N,
for example DATASTORE01. This property is also used to add a
single datastore to a linked clone blueprint. N is the index
(starting at 0) of the volume to assign. Enter the name of the
datastore to assign to the volume. This is the datastore name as
it appears in the Storage Path on the Edit Compute Resource
page. Disk numbering must be sequential.
VirtualMachine.DiskN.StorageReservationPolicy Specifies the storage reservation policy to use to find storage for
disk N. Also assigns the named storage reservation policy to a
volume. To use this property, substitute the volume number for N
in the property name and specify a storage reservation policy
name as the value. This property is equivalent to the storage
reservation policy name specified on the blueprint. Disk
numbering must be sequential. This property is valid for all
Virtual and vCloud reservations. This property is not valid for
Physical or Cloud reservations, other than vCloud reservations.
