Allow Requesters to Specify Machine Host Name
Tenant administrators and business group managers can use a custom property to prompt users to
specify a host name for their machines.
Note If your fabric administrator creates a build profile that contains the required custom properties and
you include it in your blueprint, you do not need to individually add the required custom properties to the
blueprint.
