* Exposing moid value from vm resource
moid value is needed by NSX resources, like security tag, when we attached security tags to a VMs, so needed before we commit NSX provider.
* fixing gofmt issue
* Updating docs regarding new exported moid attribute.
Since the custom_configuration_parameters can't take dots, we cannot
set 'disk.EnableUUID'. This adds a parameter for this options that gets
added to a configSpec. This option causes the vm to mount disks by uuid
on the guest OS.
Changed schema type for disks to support dynamic non-ordered disk
swapping. All Disk attributes have been made non ForceNew since
any changes should be handled in the upgrade() function.
Added 'name' attribute to disks to act as a unique
identifier for when users request for new disks. It is also used as
the filename for the new disk. Templates are considered immutable.
IPv6 support added.
We support 1 IPv6 address per interface. It seems like the vSphere SDK supports more than one, since it's provided as a list.
I can change it to support more than one address. I decided to stick with one for now since that's how the configuration parameters
had been set up by other developers.
The global gateway configuration option has been removed. Instead the user should specify a gateway on NIC level (ipv4_gateway and ipv6_gateway).
For now, the global gateway will be used as a fallback for every NICs ipv4_gateway.
The global gateway configuration option has been marked as deprecated.
User may specify a vmdk in their disk definition.
The options size, template, and vmdk are considered
to be mutually exclusive. User may also set whether each disk
associated with the vm should try to boot after creation.
Todo: Enforce mutual exclusivity, validate the bootable_vmdk_path
It can come in handy to be able to mount ISOs programmatically.
For instance if you're developing a custom appliance (that automatically installs itself on the hard drive volume)
that you want to automatically test on every successful build (given the ISO is uploaded to the vmware datastore).
There are probably lots of other reasons for using this functionality.
