scale_out_group

The scale_out_group structure contains information about a scale-out group.

It allows a virtual system collection to contain a set of children that are homogeneous with respect to a prototypical virtual system or virtual system collection. It shall cause the deployment function to replicate the prototype a number of times, thus allowing the number of instantiated virtual systems to be configured dynamically at deployment time.

This is based on the ovf2:ScaleOutSection.

See deploy and filter.
