Name and
Location
You can specify the display name for the
virtual machine by setting the
VirtualMachineConfigSpec.name
property. Any % (percent) character used in this
name
parameter must be escaped,
unless it is used to start an escape sequence. Clients can also escape any
other characters in this name parameter.
Use the
annotation
field to provide a
description of the virtual machine. To remove an existing description, specify
the empty string as the value of
annotation
.
The location of the virtual machine is
determined implicitly during creation because you call a
Folder.CreateVM_Task
method
and specify resource pool and optional target host the virtual machine should
belong to. See
resource-management.ditamap#GUID-9CDFAC36-694A-4344-B5C1-767B332C780B-en
for a discussion of resource pools and virtual machine location.
