Properties

Name	Type	Description
annotation	xsd:string	The annotation info contained in the OVF
approximateDownloadSize*	xsd:long	The OVF Manager's best guess as to the total amount of data that must be transferred to download the entity. This may be inaccurate due to disk compression etc.
approximateFlatDeploymentSize*	xsd:long	The OVF Manager's best guess as to the total amount of space required to deploy the entity if using flat disks.
approximateSparseDeploymentSize*	xsd:long	The OVF Manager's best guess as to the total amount of space required to deploy the entity using sparse disks.
defaultDeploymentOption	xsd:string	The key of the default deployment option. Empty only if there are no deployment options.
defaultEntityName	xsd:string	The default name to use for the entity, if a product name is not specified. This is the ID of the OVF top-level entity, or taken from a ProductSection.
deploymentOption*	OvfDeploymentOption[]	The list of possible deployment options.
error*	LocalizedMethodFault[]	Errors that happened during processing. Something will be wrong with the result. For example, during export, devices could be missing (in which case this array will contain one or more instances of Unsupported-/UnknownDevice).
eula*	xsd:string[]	The list of all EULAs contained in the OVF
ipAllocationScheme*	xsd:string[]	The kind of IP allocation supported by the guest. See VAppIPAssignmentInfo.
ipProtocols*	xsd:string[]	The IP protocols supported by the guest. See VAppIPAssignmentInfo.
network*	OvfNetworkInfo[]	The list of networks required by the OVF
productInfo*	VAppProductInfo	The product info contained in the OVF
property*	VAppPropertyInfo[]	Metadata about the properties contained in the OVF
virtualApp	xsd:boolean	True if the OVF contains a vApp (containing one or more vApps and/or virtual machines), as opposed to a single virtual machine.
warning*	LocalizedMethodFault[]	Non-fatal warnings from the processing. The result will be valid, but the user may choose to reject it based on these warnings.
