I don't have any easy way to confirm if powercli does the filtering on the client or on the server (likely the easiest way would be to make vCenter config...

You can do pretty much whatever is in the Reconfigure call in CreateVm itself. I'd think you can combine what is in add_disk_to_vm.py and add_nic_to_vm.py to create_random_marval_vms.py and have it...

Hi @samyama-digital. Unfortunately I don't have much experience with the Customize API. I believe there is a lot of interaction with the guest, so could be lots of potential fail...

Based on the description in https://developer.vmware.com/apis/358/vim.vm.InstantCloneSpec.html ``` Values will be queryable via destination VM's [extraConfig](https://developer.vmware.com/apis/358/vim.vm.ConfigInfo.html#extraConfig). ``` I don't think you'll be able to change anything that isn't already configurable in...

You should use pyVim.task.WaitForTask on the ReconfigVM_Task to see if there is an exception when reconfiguring. disk_spec.fileOperation = "add" This would either be a problem or at the least is...

> Any example on how this is done? I'm stuck wondering how to create the datacenter object as `FindByDatastorePath` needs that as an argument (_Python vSphere SDK_). Any help is...

I agree, there isn't any good API to call to get a VM by name. I think the fastest way is to fetch all the VM 'name' property under a...
