Properties

Name	Type	Description
attachmentStatus*	xsd:string	The status indicating the state of virtual network adapter's attachment to an opaque network. See ManagedEntityStatus for possible values. vim.ManagedEntity.Status#red indicates that the network adapter is not yet successfully attached to opaque network. This can happen if corresponding attachment port is missing in the kernel. vim.ManagedEntity.Status#green indicates that the network adapater is successfully attached to opaque network. *Since* vSphere API 6.7
featureRequirement*	VirtualMachineFeatureRequirement[]	These network adapter requirements must have equivalent capabilities on the virtual switch in order to power on or migrate to the host. *Since* vSphere API 6.7
reservationStatus*	xsd:string	The status indicating whether network reservation requirement is violated or not on the virtual network adapter. See ManagedEntityStatus for possible values. vim.ManagedEntity.Status#red indicates that reservation specified on the virtual network adapter is not being fulfilled. This can happen if the reservation requested is greater than the available capacity reserved for virtual machine traffic on the host. vim.ManagedEntity.Status#green indicates that the reservation specified on the virtual network adapter is being fulfilled. *Since* vSphere API 5.5
vmDirectPathGen2Active	xsd:boolean	Flag to indicate whether VMDirectPath Gen 2 is active on this device. If false, the reason(s) for inactivity will be provided in one or more of vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonVm, vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonOther, and vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonExtended.
vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonExtended*	xsd:string	If vmDirectPathGen2Active is false, this property may contain an explanation provided by the platform, beyond the reasons (if any) enumerated in vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonVm and/or vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonOther.
vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonOther*	xsd:string[]	If vmDirectPathGen2Active is false, this array will be populated with reasons for the inactivity that are not related to virtual machine state or configuration (chosen from VmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonOther). Virtual machine related reasons for inactivity will be provided in vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonVm. If there is a reason for inactivity that cannot be described by the available constants, vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonExtended will be populated with an additional explanation provided by the platform. Note that this list of reasons is not guaranteed to be exhaustive. See vmDirectPathGen2Supported
vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonVm*	xsd:string[]	If vmDirectPathGen2Active is false, this array will be populated with reasons for the inactivity that are related to virtual machine state or configuration (chosen from VmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonVm). Other reasons for inactivity will be provided in vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonOther. If there is a reason for inactivity that cannot be described by the available constants, vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonExtended will be populated with an additional explanation provided by the platform. Note that this list of reasons is not guaranteed to be exhaustive.

Description

attachmentStatus*

xsd:string

The status indicating the state of virtual network adapter's attachment to an opaque network. See ManagedEntityStatus for possible values.

vim.ManagedEntity.Status#red indicates that the network adapter is not yet successfully attached to opaque network. This can happen if corresponding attachment port is missing in the kernel.

vim.ManagedEntity.Status#green indicates that the network adapater is successfully attached to opaque network.

Since vSphere API 6.7

featureRequirement*

VirtualMachineFeatureRequirement[]

These network adapter requirements must have equivalent capabilities on the virtual switch in order to power on or migrate to the host.

Since vSphere API 6.7

reservationStatus*

xsd:string

The status indicating whether network reservation requirement is violated or not on the virtual network adapter. See ManagedEntityStatus for possible values.

vim.ManagedEntity.Status#red indicates that reservation specified on the virtual network adapter is not being fulfilled. This can happen if the reservation requested is greater than the available capacity reserved for virtual machine traffic on the host.

vim.ManagedEntity.Status#green indicates that the reservation specified on the virtual network adapter is being fulfilled.

Since vSphere API 5.5

vmDirectPathGen2Active

xsd:boolean

Flag to indicate whether VMDirectPath Gen 2 is active on this device. If false, the reason(s) for inactivity will be provided in one or more of vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonVm, vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonOther, and vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonExtended.

vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonExtended*

xsd:string

If vmDirectPathGen2Active is false, this property may contain an explanation provided by the platform, beyond the reasons (if any) enumerated in vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonVm and/or vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonOther.

vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonOther*

xsd:string[]

If vmDirectPathGen2Active is false, this array will be populated with reasons for the inactivity that are not related to virtual machine state or configuration (chosen from VmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonOther). Virtual machine related reasons for inactivity will be provided in vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonVm. If there is a reason for inactivity that cannot be described by the available constants, vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonExtended will be populated with an additional explanation provided by the platform.

Note that this list of reasons is not guaranteed to be exhaustive.
See vmDirectPathGen2Supported

vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonVm*

xsd:string[]

If vmDirectPathGen2Active is false, this array will be populated with reasons for the inactivity that are related to virtual machine state or configuration (chosen from VmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonVm). Other reasons for inactivity will be provided in vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonOther. If there is a reason for inactivity that cannot be described by the available constants, vmDirectPathGen2InactiveReasonExtended will be populated with an additional explanation provided by the platform.

Note that this list of reasons is not guaranteed to be exhaustive.
