Vcenter Deployment Size update
Updates the vcenter deployment size to a specified size. It can only scale up the size and not scale it down. It is a long running operation and the execution happens in a non blocking fashion. It immediately returns 'accepted'/'ok' if the request is valid and proceeds with the execution asynchronously. To query the status of this resize operation, invoke GET /vcenter/deployment/size/status Note: Please ensure that the underlying host on which vCenter is deployed has sufficient resources to avoid any performance issues.
This operation was added in vSphere API 9.1.0.0.

}The desired deployment size of the vcenter. For scale up operation, it can only be a size higher than the current vcenter size.

This property was added in vSphere API 9.1.0.0.
The connection schema contains the credential details of the container that can be a host or a management vCenter. This container should have the vCenter that is to be resized.
This property was added in vSphere API 9.1.0.0.
The flag to indicate if the restart of vCenter services is to be deferred to a later time.
This property was added in vSphere API 9.1.0.0.
This property if missing or null or set with value false will cause the restart of vCenter services. If set to true , it will not restart the vCenter services
Success!

}Stack of one or more localizable messages for human error consumers.
The message at the top of the stack (first in the list) describes the error from the perspective of the operation the client invoked.
Each subsequent message in the stack describes the "cause" of the prior message.
Data to facilitate clients responding to the operation reporting a standard error to indicating that it was unable to complete successfully.
Operations may provide data that clients can use when responding to errors. Since the data that clients need may be specific to the context of the operation reporting the error, different operations that report the same error may provide different data in the error. The documentation for each each operation will describe what, if any, data it provides for each error it reports.
The Vapi Std Errors ArgumentLocations, Vapi Std Errors FileLocations, and Vapi Std Errors TransientIndication schemas are intended as possible values for this property. Vapi Std DynamicID may also be useful as a value for this property (although that is not its primary purpose). Some resources may provide their own specific schemas for use as the value of this property when reporting errors from their operations.
Some operations will not set this property when reporting errors.
Discriminator field to help API consumers identify the structure type.

This property was added in vSphere API 6.7.2.
Can be missing or null for compatibility with preceding implementations.

For example, a provider using REST may adhere to the WWW-Authenticate HTTP header specification, RFC7235, section 4.1. In this case an example challenge value may be: SIGN realm="27da1358-2ba4-11e9-b210-d663bd873d93",sts="http://vcenter/sso?vsphere.local", Basic realm="vCenter"
This property was added in vSphere API 7.0.0.0.
This property is optional because it was added in a newer version than its parent node.
