Data Object Description

A VmImportSpec is used by ResourcePool.importVApp when importing entities.

It provides all information needed to import a VirtualMachine. So far, this coincides with VirtualMachineConfigSpec.

A VmImportSpec can be contained in a VirtualAppImportSpec as part of the ImportSpec for an entity.

See also ImportSpec.
