Ovf_LibraryItem_ResourcePoolDeploymentSpec
The LibraryItem.ResourcePoolDeploymentSpec structure defines the deployment parameters that can be specified for the LibraryItem.deploy operation where the deployment target is a resource pool. See LibraryItem.deploy.

}Name assigned to the deployed target virtual machine or virtual appliance. If unset, the server will use the name from the OVF package.
Annotation assigned to the deployed target virtual machine or virtual appliance. If unset, the server will use the annotation from the OVF package.
Whether to accept all End User License Agreements. See LibraryItem.OvfSummary.eulas.
Specification of the target network to use for sections of type ovf:NetworkSection in the OVF descriptor. The key in the map is the section identifier of the ovf:NetworkSection section in the OVF descriptor and the value is the target network to be used for deployment. If unset, the server will choose a network mapping. When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the value in the field map must be an identifier for the resource type: Network. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the value in the field map will be an identifier for the resource type: Network.
Specification of the target storage to use for sections of type vmw:StorageGroupSection in the OVF descriptor. The key in the map is the section identifier of the ovf:StorageGroupSection section in the OVF descriptor and the value is the target storage specification to be used for deployment. See LibraryItem.StorageGroupMapping. If unset, the server will choose a storage mapping.
The DiskProvisioningType enumerated type defines the virtual disk provisioning types that can be set for a disk on the target platform.
thin : A thin provisioned virtual disk has space allocated and zeroed on demand as the space is used.
thick : A thick provisioned virtual disk has all space allocated at creation time and the space is zeroed on demand as the space is used.
eagerZeroedThick : An eager zeroed thick provisioned virtual disk has all space allocated and wiped clean of any previous contents on the physical media at creation time. Disks specified as eager zeroed thick may take longer time to create than disks specified with the other disk provisioning types.
Default storage profile to use for all sections of type vmw:StorageSection in the OVF descriptor. If unset, the server will choose the default profile. When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the field must be an identifier for the resource type: StorageProfile. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the field will be an identifier for the resource type: StorageProfile.
The locale to use for parsing the OVF descriptor. If unset, the server locale will be used.
Flags to be use for deployment. The supported flag values can be obtained using ImportFlag.list. If unset, no flags will be used.
Additional OVF parameters that may be needed for the deployment. Additional OVF parameters may be required by the OVF descriptor of the OVF package in the library item. Examples of OVF parameters that can be specified through this field include, but are not limited to:
- DeploymentOptionParams
- ExtraConfigParams
- IpAllocationParams
- PropertyParams
- ScaleOutParams
- VcenterExtensionParams
If unset, the server will choose default settings for all parameters necessary for the LibraryItem.deploy operation. See LibraryItem.deploy. When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the field must contain all the attributes defined in OvfParams. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the field will contain all the attributes defined in OvfParams.
Default datastore to use for all sections of type vmw:StorageSection in the OVF descriptor. If unset, the server will choose the default datastore. When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the field must be an identifier for the resource type: Datastore. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the field will be an identifier for the resource type: Datastore.
The LibraryItem.VmConfigSpec defines the optional virtual machine configuration settings used when deploying an OVF template. When used, the OVF descriptor acts as a disk descriptor.
