* Idempotency fix on annotations permitting to change them on reconfiguration
* Permit to set VMware customvalues attributes on VM
* Gather annotation & customvalues and report it into module facts
* vmware_guest: various changes and fixes
Most of my queued changes were already implemented by @aperigault !
This was still open
- Typos
- Various fixes to dict.get() without quotes
- Defaults to fullname and orgname (so they are no longer mandatory)
- Add missing timezone implementation
- Remove the customize flag from the options
- Rename 'customizations' to 'customization' (cfr VMware docs and fora)
* Important fixes for idempotency and customization
- A password is mandatory for customization to work on Windows !
- An important fix for idempotency related to guestId
- Support all types of Windows guestId entries
* Suggestion by @aperigault
* Small documentation fixes
- If an absolute path is provided, ensure it starts with /vm
- Also ensure there are no trailing slashes
This gets rid of a few locations where the same was being done.
It also fixes the cases of multiple trailing slashes, or ending up with
/vm/ instead of /vm.
This patch adds support for all other virtual NICs, including:
- pcnet32
- vmxnet2
- e1000e
- sriov
Without this change, VMs with one of these NICs will fail with a
fault.NicSettingMismatch.summary error as it will only add interfaces,
not edit these.
