Properties

Name Type Description
annotation*xsd:string

Description for the vApp.

Reconfigure privilege: VApp.Rename.

entityConfig*VAppEntityConfigInfo[]

Configuration of sub-entities (virtual machine or vApp container).

Reconfigure privilege: See EntityConfigInfo

instanceUuid*xsd:string

vCenter-specific 128-bit UUID of a vApp, represented as a hexadecimal string. This identifier is used by vCenter to uniquely identify all vApp instances in the Virtual Infrastructure environment.

Normally, this property is not set by a client, allowing the Virtual Infrastructure environment to assign or change it when VirtualCenter detects an identifier conflict between vApps.

Reconfigure privilege: VApp.ApplicationConfig

Since vSphere API 4.1
managedBy*ManagedByInfo

Specifies that this vApp is managed by a VC Extension.

This information is primarily used in the Client to show a custom icon for managed vApps, and a description of the function of the vApp. If no extension can be found with the extension key in the managedBy object, or the type is not found in the managedEntityInfo list of the extension, the default vApp icon is used, and no description is shown.

Reconfigure privilege: VApp.ApplicationConfig

Since vSphere API 5.0
