content library subscriptions: placement info

The placement_info structure contains the placement information for the subscribed library's virtual machine template library items. The placement_info structure is only applicable for the virtual machine template library items of the subscribed library. This structure was added in vSphere API 6.7.2.

Attributes:

Name	Type	Description
Optional
folder	string	Virtual machine folder into which the virtual machine template should be placed. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.2. Optional. The field will be unset if the subscribed library associated with the subscription does not have a virtual machine folder.When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the field must be an identifier for the resource type: `Folder:VCenter`. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the field will be an identifier for the resource type: `Folder:VCenter`.
cluster	string	Cluster onto which the virtual machine template should be placed. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.2. Optional. The field will be unset if the subscribed library associated with the subscription does not have a cluster.When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the field must be an identifier for the resource type: `ClusterComputeResource:VCenter`. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the field will be an identifier for the resource type: `ClusterComputeResource:VCenter`.
resource_pool	string	Resource pool into which the virtual machine template should be placed. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.2. Optional. The field will be unset if the subscribed library associated with the subscription does not have a resource pool.When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the field must be an identifier for the resource type: `ResourcePool:VCenter`. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the field will be an identifier for the resource type: `ResourcePool:VCenter`.
host	string	Host onto which the virtual machine template should be placed. If `host` and `resource_pool` are both specified, `resource_pool` must belong to `host`. If `host` and `cluster` are both specified, `host` must be a member of `cluster`. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.2. Optional. The field will be unset if the subscribed library associated with the subscription does not have a host.When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the field must be an identifier for the resource type: `HostSystem:VCenter`. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the field will be an identifier for the resource type: `HostSystem:VCenter`.
network	string	Network that backs the virtual Ethernet adapters in the virtual machine template. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.2. Optional. The field will be unset if the subscribed library associated with the subscription does not have a network.When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the field must be an identifier for the resource type: `Network:VCenter`. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the field will be an identifier for the resource type: `Network:VCenter`.
