Parameters

Required Parameter Name Type Position Features Description
required
 AwsAccount AwsAccount named
Specifies the VMware Cloud on AWS account that you want to link to the SDDC.
required
 AwsVpcSubnet AwsVpcSubnet[] named
Specifies a private subnet range (RFC 1918) that you want to use for vCenter Server, NSX Manager, and the ESXi hosts. Choose a range that does not conflict with other networks that you want to connect to this SDDC. If the SDDC is stretched cluster, you should choose more than one private subnet range.
required
 HostCount Int32 named
Specifies the number of the hosts that you want to create.
required
 Name String named
Specifies the name of the created SDDC.
required
 Region String named
Specifies the geographical region where you want to create the SDDC. You can find a list of the VMware Cloud on AWS regions in the table below. | Region Name | Region | |--------------------------|---------------| |US East (Ohio) |US_EAST_2 | |US East (N.

optional HostType VmcHostTypeEnum named
Specifies the type of the hosts. The availale host types are: "I3EN" and "I3". If the host type is not specified, the default type "I3" is set.
optional ManagementSubnetCidr String named
Specifies the IP subnet in a classless inter-domain routing (CIDR) format for the compute gateway.
optional Outpost VmcOutpost named
  • wildcards
 Specifies the AWS Outpost on which you want to host this SDDC.
optional ProgressAction ActionPreference named
optional Provider VmcProvider named
Specifies the cloud provider (e.g. VMware Cloud on AWS) that you use to provide the physical resources for the newly created SDDC.
optional RunAsync SwitchParameter named
Indicates that the command returns immediately without waiting for the task to complete. In this mode, the output of the cmdlet is a Task object. For more information about the RunAsync parameter, run "help About_RunAsync" in the VMware PowerCLI console.
optional SddcAppliancesSize VmcSddcSizeEnum named
Specifies the SDDC appliances size.
optional SddcType SddcType named
Specifies if the SDDC is single or multi-host.
optional Server VmcServer[] named
Specifies the VMware Cloud on AWS servers on which you want to run the cmdlet. If no value is given to this parameter, the command runs on the default servers. For more information about default servers, see the description of the Connect-Vmc cmdlet.
optional StretchedCluster SwitchParameter named
Specifies if you want to stretch out the SDDC to two availability zones in order to be highly available.
