vSphere v4.12.1 published on Tuesday, Oct 22, 2024 by Pulumi
pulumi/pulumi-vsphere

    The vsphere.CustomAttribute resource can be used to create and manage custom attributes, which allow users to associate user-specific meta-information with vSphere managed objects. Custom attribute values must be strings and are stored on the vCenter Server and not the managed object.

    For more information about custom attributes, click here.

    NOTE: Custom attributes are unsupported on direct ESXi host connections and require vCenter Server.

    Example Usage

    This example creates a custom attribute named test-attribute. The resulting custom attribute can be assigned to VMs only.

    import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as vsphere from "@pulumi/vsphere";

const attribute = new vsphere.CustomAttribute("attribute", {
    name: "test-attribute",
    managedObjectType: "VirtualMachine",
});

    import pulumi
import pulumi_vsphere as vsphere

attribute = vsphere.CustomAttribute("attribute",
    name="test-attribute",
    managed_object_type="VirtualMachine")

    package main

import (
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi-vsphere/sdk/v4/go/vsphere"
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi/sdk/v3/go/pulumi"
)

func main() {
	pulumi.Run(func(ctx *pulumi.Context) error {
		_, err := vsphere.NewCustomAttribute(ctx, "attribute", &vsphere.CustomAttributeArgs{
			Name:              pulumi.String("test-attribute"),
			ManagedObjectType: pulumi.String("VirtualMachine"),
		})
		if err != nil {
			return err
		}
		return nil
	})
}

    using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using Pulumi;
using VSphere = Pulumi.VSphere;

return await Deployment.RunAsync(() => 
{
    var attribute = new VSphere.CustomAttribute("attribute", new()
    {
        Name = "test-attribute",
        ManagedObjectType = "VirtualMachine",
    });

});

    Create CustomAttribute Resource

    Resources are created with functions called constructors. To learn more about declaring and configuring resources, see Resources.

    Constructor syntax

    new CustomAttribute(name: string, args?: CustomAttributeArgs, opts?: CustomResourceOptions);
    @overload
def CustomAttribute(resource_name: str,
                    args: Optional[CustomAttributeArgs] = None,
                    opts: Optional[ResourceOptions] = None)

@overload
def CustomAttribute(resource_name: str,
                    opts: Optional[ResourceOptions] = None,

                    name: Optional[str] = None)
    func NewCustomAttribute(ctx *Context, name string, args *CustomAttributeArgs, opts ...ResourceOption) (*CustomAttribute, error)
    public CustomAttribute(string name, CustomAttributeArgs? args = null, CustomResourceOptions? opts = null)

    ManagedObjectType = "string",
    Name = "string",
});

    example, err := vsphere.NewCustomAttribute(ctx, "customAttributeResource", &vsphere.CustomAttributeArgs{
	ManagedObjectType: pulumi.String("string"),
	Name:              pulumi.String("string"),

    var customAttributeResource = new CustomAttribute("customAttributeResource", CustomAttributeArgs.builder()
    .managedObjectType("string")
    .name("string")
    .build());

    custom_attribute_resource = vsphere.CustomAttribute("customAttributeResource",
