Table 2‑5. Custom Properties for Customizing FlexClone Machines with a Guest Agent
(Continued)
Custom Property Description
VirtualMachine.DiskN.Label
Specifies the label for a machine’s disk N. The disk label
maximum is 32 characters. Disk numbering must be sequential.
When used in conjunction with a guest agent, specifies the label
of a machine's disk N inside the guest operating system.
VirtualMachine.DiskN.Letter
Specifies the drive letter or mount point of a machine’s disk N.
The default is C. For example, to specify the letter D for Disk 1,
define the custom property as VirtualMachine.Disk1.Letter
and enter the value D. Disk numbering must be sequential.
When used in conjunction with a guest agent, this value
specifies the drive letter or mount point under which an
additional disk N is mounted by the guest agent in the guest
operating system.
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.
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.
