Property Description
VirtualMachine.Admin.AddOwnerToAdmins
Set to True (default) to add the machine’s owner,
as specified by the
VirtualMachine.Admin.Owner property, to the
local administrators group on the machine.
This property is not available for provisioning by
cloning.
VirtualMachine.Admin.AllowLogin
Set to True (default) to add the machine owner to
the local remote desktop users group, as
specified by the VirtualMachine.Admin.Owner
property.
VirtualMachine.Admin.DiskInterfaceType
Indicates the type of disk drivers. The following
disk drivers are supported:
n
IDE (default)
n
VirtIO
This property is for virtual provisioning.
VirtualMachine.Admin.ForceHost
Specifies the name of the ESX host. The property
is only honored if
VirtualMachine.Admin.HostSelectionPolic
y is set to EXACT_MATCH.
Note This property is for vSphere only.
When provisioning against a vSphere cluster, you
can use the
VirtualMachine.Admin.ForceHost property to
specify the host on which a machine is to be
provisioned. This property is used only if DRS is
not set to automatic for the cluster. If the cluster
has DRS enabled and is set to Automatic,
vSphere relocates the provisioned machine when
the machine is restarted.
VirtualMachine.Admin.HostSelectionPolicy
Optionally set to EXACT_MATCH to require the
machine to be placed on the host specified by the
VirtualMachine.Admin.ForceHost property. If
the host is unavailable, the request results in a
failure. If a host is not specified, the next best
available host is selected. If set to
EXACT_MATCH, an error occurs if the specified
host does not have enough memory or is in
maintenance mode.
Note This property applies to vSphere only.
VirtualMachine.Agent.CopyToDisk
Set to True (default) to copy the guest agent
executable file to %System-Drive
%\VRM\Build\Bin on the machine’s disk.
VirtualMachine.Agent.GuiRunOnce
Set to True to include guest agent execution in
the SysPrep.inf run once section. Set to False
for the Linux agent to stop the provisioning
workflow.
