EntityBackupConfig

EntityBackupConfig
EntityBackupConfig

The EntityBackupConfig data object contains VmwareDistributedVirtualSwitch or DistributedVirtualPortgroup backup configuration data produced by the DVSManagerExportEntity_Task method.

It also contains properties that support DVSManagerImportEntity_Task operations.

A DVSManagerExportEntity_Task operation sets properties that identify the entity instance (entityType, key, and name) and inventory location (container). When you import a backup configuration, you can set the key, name, and container properties in accordance with the importType specified in the call to DVSManagerImportEntity_Task. See EntityImportTypeEnum.
