Custom Property Description
VCNS.LoadBalancerEdgePool.Names.name
Species the vCloud Networking and Security load
balancing pools to which the virtual machine is assigned
during provisioning. The virtual machine is assigned to all
service ports of all specied pools. The value is an edge/pool
name or a list of edge/pool names separated by commas.
Names are case-sensitive.
N You can add a machine IP address to an existing
load balancer by using the
VCNS.LoadBalancerEdgePool.Names custom property.
vRealize Automation and NSX use the rst member of the
specied edge load balancer pool to determine the new
member port and monitor port seings. However, NSX 6.2
does not require that the member port seing be specied.
To avoid provisioning failure when using
VCNS.LoadBalancerEdgePool.Names with NSX 6.2 to add
a machine to an existing pool, you must specify a port
value for the rst member of the load balancer pool in NSX.
Appending a name allows you to create multiple versions
of a custom property. For example, the following properties
might list load balancing pools set up for general use and
machines with high, moderate, and low performance
requirements:
n
VCNS.LoadBalancerEdgePool.Names
n
VCNS.LoadBalancerEdgePool.Names.moderate
n
VCNS.LoadBalancerEdgePool.Names.high
n
VCNS.LoadBalancerEdgePool.Names.low
VCNS.SecurityGroup.Names
.name
Species the vCloud Networking and Security security
group or groups to which the virtual machine is assigned
during provisioning. The value is a security group name or
a list of names separated by commas. Names are case-
sensitive.
Appending a name allows you to create multiple versions
of the property, which can be used separately or in
combination. For example, the following properties can list
security groups intended for general use, for the sales
force, and for support:
n
VCNS.SecurityGroup.Names
n
VCNS.SecurityGroup.Names.sales
n
VCNS.SecurityGroup.Names.support
VCNS.SecurityTag.Names.name
Species the vCloud Networking and Security security tag
or tags to which the virtual machine is associated during
provisioning. The value is a security tag name or a list of
names separated by commas. Names are case-sensitive.
Appending a name allows you to create multiple versions
of the property, which can be used separately or in
combination. For example, the following properties can list
security tags intended for general use, for the sales force,
and for support:
n
VCNS.SecurityTag.Names
n
VCNS.SecurityTag.Names.sales
n
VCNS.SecurityTag.Names.support
