Custom Property Description
VirtualMachine.DiskN.StorageReservationPolicy
Species the storage reservation policy to use to nd
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 specied 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,
Amazon, or OpenStack reservations.
VirtualMachine.EULA.AcceptAll
Set to true to specify that all the EULAs for the VM
templates of the vCloud Air or vCloud Director endpoints
are accepted during provisioning.
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.Name
Species the name of the network to connect to, for
example the network device N to which a machine is
aached. This is equivalent to a network interface card
(NIC).
By default, a network is assigned from the network paths
available on the reservation on which the machine is
provisioned. Also see
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.AddressType.
You can ensure that a network device is connected to a
specic network by seing the value of this property to the
name of a network on an available reservation. For
example, if you give properties for N= 0 and 1, you get 2
NICs and their assigned value, provided the network is
selected in the associated reservation.
VirtualMachine.NetworkN custom properties are
specic to blueprints and machines. When a machine is
requested, network and IP address allocation is performed
before the machine is assigned to a reservation. Because
blueprints are not guaranteed to be allocated to a specic
reservation, do not use this property on a reservation.
You can add this property to a vCloud Air or
vCloud Director machine component in a blueprint.
For related information, see “Custom Properties for
Networking,” on page 35.
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.AddressType
Species how IP address allocation is supplied to the
network provider, where NetworkN is the network
number, starting with 0. The following values are available:
n
DHCP
n
Static
n
MANUAL (available for vCloud Air and
vCloud Director only)
This property is available for conguring vCloud Air,
vCloud Director, and vSphere machine components in the
blueprint. Also see VirtualMachine.NetworkN.Name.
