Attributes
-
Attribute Type Required Modifiable Since Deprecated Description href anyURI No always 0.9 The URI of the entity. type string No always 0.9 The MIME type of the entity. id string No none 0.9 The entity identifier, expressed in URN format. The value of this attribute uniquely identifies the entity, persists for the life of the entity, and is never reused. operationKey string No create 5.1 Optional unique identifier to support idempotent semantics for create and delete operations. name string Yes always 0.9 The name of the entity. status int No none 0.9 Creation status of the vDC. One of:
0 (The vDC is still being created)
1 (The vDC is ready)
-1 (There was an error while creating the vDC).isLegacyType boolean No none 32.0 Whether the VDC type is Flex or a legacy one. -
Elements
-
Element Type Required Modifiable Since Deprecated Description AllocationModel string No always 0.9 The allocation model used by this vDC. One of:
AllocationVApp (Pay as you go. Resources are committed to a vDC only when vApps are created in it. When you use this allocation model, any Limit values you specify for Memory and CPU are ignored on create and returned as 0 on retrieve.)
AllocationPool (Only a percentage of the resources you allocate are committed to the organization vDC.)
ReservationPool (All the resources you allocate are committed as a pool to the organization vDC. vApps in vDCs that support this allocation model can specify values for resource and limit.)
Flex (Only a percentage of the resources you allocate are committed to the organization vDC. You can allocate zero resources also and make it behave like a Pay-As-You-Go type. Based on the values chosen for allocated resources and limits, this vDC can be made to behave as any of the existing three types.)AvailableNetworks AvailableNetworksType No none 0.9 Read-only list of organization vDC networks in this vDC. Capabilities CapabilitiesType No none 0.9 Read-only list of VM hardware capabilities supported in this vDC. ComputeCapacity ComputeCapacityType No always 0.9 The compute capacity allocated to this vDC. ComputeProviderScope string No none 31.0 A label which uniquely identifies the compute source of this VDC. DefaultComputePolicy ReferenceType No none 31.0 Default vDC compute policy in this organization vDC. Description string No always 0.9 Optional description. IsEnabled boolean No always 0.9 True if this vDC is enabled for use. Read-only in the user view. Modifiable in the admin view. Link LinkType No none 0.9 A reference to an entity or operation associated with this object. MaxComputePolicy ReferenceType No none 32.0 Max vDC compute policy in this organization vDC. NetworkProviderScope string No none 31.0 A label which uniquely identifies the network provider source of this VDC. NetworkQuota int No always 0.9 Maximum number of network objects that can be deployed in this vDC. Defaults to 0, which specifies an unlimited number. NicQuota int No always 0.9 Maximum number of virtual NICs allowed in this vDC. Defaults to 0, which specifies an unlimited number. ResourceEntities ResourceEntitiesType No none 0.9 Read-only list of resource entities in this vDC. Tasks TasksInProgressType No none 0.9 A list of queued, running, or recently completed tasks associated with this entity. UsedNetworkCount int No always 5.1 Number of networks in use for/by this vDC. VCloudExtension VCloudExtensionType No always 0.9 An optional extension element that can contain an arbitrary number of elements and attributes. Not related to extension services. VCpuInMhz2 long No always 5.7 Specifies the clock frequency, in Megahertz, for any virtual CPU that is allocated to a VM. A VM with 2 vCPUs will consume twice as much of this value. Ignored for ReservationPool. Required when AllocationModel is AllocationVApp or AllocationPool, and may not be less than 256 MHz. Defaults to 1000 MHz if the element is empty or missing. VdcStorageProfiles VdcStorageProfilesType No none 5.1 Storage profiles supported in this vDC. VmQuota int No always 0.9 The quota of VMs that can be created in this vDC. Includes VMs in both vApps and vApp templates, deployed, or otherwise. Defaults to 0, which specifies an unlimited number. -
