This class requires all of the following:

DataObject

JSON Example

{
    "_typeName": "string",
    "password": {
        "_typeName": "string",
        "value": "string",
        "plainText": false
    },
    "timeZone": 0,
    "autoLogon": false,
    "autoLogonCount": 0
}

password

Optional

The new administrator password for the machine.

To specify that the password should be set to blank (that is, no password), set the password value to NULL. Because of encryption, "" is NOT a valid value.

If password is set to blank and autoLogon is set, the guest customization will fail.

If the XML file is generated by the VirtualCenter Customization Wizard, then the password is encrypted. Otherwise, the client should set the plainText attribute to true, so that the customization process does not attempt to decrypt the string.

integer As int32 As int32

timeZone

Required

The time zone index for the virtual machine.

Numbers correspond to time zones listed at <a href="https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/973627/microsoft-time-zone-index-values"target="_blank">Microsoft Time Zone Index Values.

boolean

autoLogon

Required

Flag to determine whether or not the machine automatically logs on as Administrator.
