}Esx Upgrade failure actions to be taken if host entering maintenance mode failed during esx cluster upgrade
Flag for enforcing HCL validation for ESXi upgrade, when applicable, to prevent remediation if hardware compatibility issues are found.
Flag for enabling Quick Patch/Live Patch policy for ESXi upgrade, when applicable. Quick Patch/Live Patch remediation is performed using Partial Maitnenance Mode and does not require full Maintenance Mode or Reboot. This option is only applicable to vLCM based ESXi upgrade.
Quick Patch options to dictate upgrade behavior when Quick Patch/Live Patch is enabled.
Remediation failure tolerance spec of the cluster
Flag to skip caching of reserved VIBs on the host. During effective VIB computation, a VIB at a lower version can get replaced by the same VIB at a higher version coming from another release unit. vLCM caches the lower version VIB in ESX-OSData partition to support extraction of currently running image from the hosts. Setting this option means (a) remediation will not cache reserved VIBs, (b) extracting the currently running image from such hosts will not include the reserved VIBs. Hence, the image will not be complete and that might lead to remediation failures. NOTE: Use this option with caution.
Flag for requesting Quick Boot
Flag for requesting Evacuation of Offline VMs
Flag for disabling HA admission control on the cluster.
Flag for disabling DPM on the cluster.
Flag for setting VM power state before entering maintenance mode.
