Flag to determine whether or not the machine automatically logs on as Administrator. See the GuiUnattended.password property. If GuiUnattended.auto-logon flag is set, then GuiUnattended.password must not be unset or the guest customization will fail.

integer As int64

auto_logon_count

Required

If the GuiUnattended.auto-logon flag is set, then this property specifies the number of times the machine should automatically log on as Administrator. Generally it should be 1, but if the setup requires a number of reboots, you may want to increase it. This number may be determined by the list of commands.

string As password

password

The new administrator password for the machine. To specify that the password should be set to blank (that is, no password), leave it unset. If unset, blank password will be used.

integer As int64
