Host Transport Node

Name Description Type Notes
_create_time Timestamp of resource creation EpochMsTimestamp Readonly
Sortable
_create_user ID of the user who created this resource string Readonly
_last_modified_time Timestamp of last modification EpochMsTimestamp Readonly
Sortable
_last_modified_user ID of the user who last modified this resource string Readonly
_links References related to this resource

The server will populate this field when returing the resource. Ignored on PUT and POST.
array of ResourceLink Readonly
_protection Indicates protection status of this resource

Protection status is one of the following:
PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is not allowed
to modify it.
NOT_PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is allowed
to modify it
REQUIRE_OVERRIDE - the client who retrieved the entity is a super
user and can modify it, but only when providing
the request header X-Allow-Overwrite=true.
UNKNOWN - the _protection field could not be determined for this
entity.
string Readonly
_revision Generation of this resource config

The _revision property describes the current revision of the resource. To prevent clients from overwriting each other's changes, PUT operations must include the current _revision of the resource, which clients should obtain by issuing a GET operation. If the _revision provided in a PUT request is missing or stale, the operation will be rejected.
int
_schema Schema for this resource string Readonly
_self Link to this resource SelfResourceLink Readonly
_system_owned Indicates system owned resource boolean Readonly
children subtree for this type within policy tree

subtree for this type within policy tree containing nested elements.
array of ChildPolicyConfigResource
Children are not allowed for this type
description Description of this resource string Maximum length: 1024
Sortable
discovered_node_id_for_create Discovered node id to create Host Transport Node

Specify discovered node id to create Host Transport Node for Discovered Node.
This field is required during Host Transport Node create from vCenter server managing the ESXi type HostNode.
No need to provide node_deployment_info while creating Host Transport Node for Discovered Node.
If both node_deployment_info and discovered_node_id_for_create provided during Host TransportNode create payload
then it will create Host Transport Node from the discovered node id provided in this field.
string
display_name Identifier to use when displaying entity in logs or GUI

Defaults to ID if not set
string Maximum length: 255
Sortable
host_switch_spec Transport node host switch specification

This property is used to either create standard host switches
or to inform NSX about preconfigured host switches that already
exist on the transport node.

Pass an array of either StandardHostSwitchSpec objects or
PreconfiguredHostSwitchSpec objects. It is an error to pass
an array containing different types of HostSwitchSpec objects.
HostSwitchSpec
(Abstract type: pass one of the following concrete types)
PreconfiguredHostSwitchSpec
StandardHostSwitchSpec
id Unique identifier of this resource string Sortable
is_overridden Indicates if config is different than compute collection.

This flag is relevant to only those hosts which are part of a
compute collection which has transport node profile (TNP)
applied on it. If you change the transport node configuration
and it is different than cluster level TNP then this flag will
be set to true.
boolean Readonly
maintenance_mode transport node maintenance mode desired state

The property is read-only, used for querying result. User could update transport node maintenance mode by UpdateTransportNodeMaintenanceMode call.
string Readonly
Enum: ENABLED, FORCE_ENABLED, DISABLED
marked_for_delete Indicates whether the intent object is marked for deletion

Intent objects are not directly deleted from the system when a delete
is invoked on them. They are marked for deletion and only when all the
realized entities for that intent object gets deleted, the intent object
is deleted. Objects that are marked for deletion are not returned in
GET call. One can use the search API to get these objects.
boolean Readonly
Default: "False"
node_deployment_info FabricHostNode
overridden Indicates whether this object is the overridden intent object

Global intent objects cannot be modified by the user.
However, certain global intent objects can be overridden locally by use
of this property. In such cases, the overridden local values take
precedence over the globally defined values for the properties.
boolean Readonly
Default: "False"
parent_path Path of its parent

Path of its parent
string Readonly
path Absolute path of this object

Absolute path of this object
string Readonly
realization_id A unique identifier assigned by the system for realizing intent

This is a UUID generated by the system for realizing the entity object.
In most cases this should be same as 'unique_id' of the entity. However,
in some cases this can be different because of entities have migrated thier
unique identifier to NSX Policy intent objects later in the timeline and did
not use unique_id for realization. Realization id is helpful for users to
debug data path to correlate the configuration with corresponding intent.
string Readonly
relative_path Relative path of this object

Path relative from its parent
string Readonly
resource_type Must be set to the value HostTransportNode string
tags Opaque identifiers meaningful to the API user array of Tag Maximum items: 30
unique_id A unique identifier assigned by the system

This is a UUID generated by the GM/LM to uniquely identify
entites in a federated environment. For entities that are
stretched across multiple sites, the same ID will be used
on all the stretched sites.
string Readonly
