|
entityName
|
String
|
The name to set on the entity (more precisely, on the top-level vApp or
VM of the entity) as it appears in VI. If empty, the product name is obtained
from the ProductSection of the descriptor. If that name is not specified, the
ovf:id of the top-level entity is used. |
|
hostSystem
|
VcHostSystem
|
The host to validate the OVF descriptor against, if it cannot be deduced from
the resource pool.
<p>
The privilege System.Read is required on the host. |
|
importOption
|
String[]
|
An optional argument for modifing the OVF parsing. When the server parses an OVF
descriptor a set of options can be used to modify the parsing. The argument is a list
of keywords.
<p>
To get a list of supported keywords see <a target="_blank" href="https://www.vmware.com/support/orchestrator/doc/vro-vsphere60-api/html/VcOvfManager.html#ovfImportOption">VcOvfManager</a>. Unknown
options will be ignored by the server. |
|
instantiationOst
|
VcOvfConsumerOstNode
|
The instantiation OST to configure OVF consumers. This is created by the client
from the annotated OST. See <a target="_blank" href="https://www.vmware.com/support/orchestrator/doc/vro-vsphere60-api/html/null.html">null</a> for details. |
|
ipAllocationPolicy
|
String
|
The IP allocation policy chosen by the caller.
<p>
See <a target="_blank" href="https://www.vmware.com/support/orchestrator/doc/vro-vsphere60-api/html/VcVAppIPAssignmentInfo.html">VcVAppIPAssignmentInfo</a>. |
|
ipProtocol
|
String
|
The IP protocol chosen by the caller.
<p>
See <a target="_blank" href="https://www.vmware.com/support/orchestrator/doc/vro-vsphere60-api/html/VcVAppIPAssignmentInfo.html">VcVAppIPAssignmentInfo</a>. |
|
locale
|
String
|
The locale-identifier to choose from the descriptor. If empty, the
default locale on the server is used. |
|
msgBundle
|
VcKeyValue[]
|
An optional set of localization strings to be used. The server will use
these message strings to localize information in the result and in
error and warning messages.
<p>
This argument allows a client to pass messages from external
string bundles. The client is responsible for selecting the right string
bundle (based on locale) and parsing the external string bundle. The
passed in key/value pairs are looked up before any messages
included in the OVF descriptor itself. |
|
networkMapping
|
VcOvfNetworkMapping[]
|
The mapping of network identifiers from the descriptor to networks in the VI
infrastructure.
<p>
The privilege Network.Assign is required on all networks in the list. |
|
propertyMapping
|
VcKeyValue[]
|
The assignment of values to the properties found in the descriptor. If no value
is specified for an option, the default value from the descriptor is used. |
|
resourceMapping
|
VcOvfResourceMap[]
|
The resource configuration for the created vApp. This can be used to distribute
a vApp across multiple resource pools (and create linked children).
