Attributes:

Name Type Description
Required
-.metadata_file string The path of the metadata file. Warning: This attribute is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented.

-.progress.total long Total amount of the work for the operation. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.

-.progress.completed long The amount of work completed for the operation. The value can only be incremented. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.

-.progress.message localizable_message Message about the work progress. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.

-.progress.message.id string Unique identifier of the localizable string or message template.

This identifier is typically used to retrieve a locale-specific string or message template from a message catalog.

-.progress.message.default_message string The value of this localizable string or message template in the en_US (English) locale. If vapi.std.localizable_message.id refers to a message template, the default message will contain the substituted arguments. This value can be used by clients that do not need to display strings and messages in the native language of the user. It could also be used as a fallback if a client is unable to access the appropriate message catalog.

-.progress.message.args string[] Positional arguments to be substituted into the message template. This list will be empty if the message uses named arguments or has no arguments.

-.last_updated_time date_time The time that the last update is registered. Warning: This attribute is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented.

-.appliance_info.appliance_name string The name of the appliance. Warning: This attribute is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented.

-.description localizable_message Description of the operation associated with the task. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.

-.description.id string Unique identifier of the localizable string or message template.

This identifier is typically used to retrieve a locale-specific string or message template from a message catalog.

-.description.default_message string The value of this localizable string or message template in the en_US (English) locale. If vapi.std.localizable_message.id refers to a message template, the default message will contain the substituted arguments. This value can be used by clients that do not need to display strings and messages in the native language of the user. It could also be used as a fallback if a client is unable to access the appropriate message catalog.

-.description.args string[] Positional arguments to be substituted into the message template. This list will be empty if the message uses named arguments or has no arguments.

-.service string Identifier of the service containing the operation. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.

When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the field must be an identifier for the resource type: com.vmware.vapi.service. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the field will be an identifier for the resource type: com.vmware.vapi.service.

-.operation string Identifier of the operation associated with the task. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.

When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the field must be an identifier for the resource type: com.vmware.vapi.operation. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the field will be an identifier for the resource type: com.vmware.vapi.operation.

-.target.type string The type of resource being identified (for example com.acme.Person).

Services that contain operations for creating and deleting resources typically contain a constant specifying the resource type for the resources being created and deleted. The API metamodel metadata services include a service that allows retrieving all the known resource types.

-.target.id string The identifier for a resource whose type is specified by vapi.std.dynamic_ID.type.

When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the field type must contain the actual resource type. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the field type will contain the actual resource type.

-.status string Status of the operation associated with the task. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.

Defines the status values that can be reported for an operation. This enumeration was added in vSphere API 6.7. Value is one of:
PENDING: The operation is in pending state. This constant was added in vSphere API 6.7.
RUNNING: The operation is in progress. This constant was added in vSphere API 6.7.
BLOCKED: The operation is blocked. This constant was added in vSphere API 6.7.
SUCCEEDED: The operation completed successfully. This constant was added in vSphere API 6.7.
FAILED: The operation failed. This constant was added in vSphere API 6.7.

-.cancelable boolean Flag to indicate whether or not the operation can be cancelled. The value may change as the operation progresses. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.

Optional
