Properties

Name | Type | Description
--- | --- | ---
clientPrivateKey* | xsd:string | Client private SSH key used for key based authentication in case of Linux P2V. Unset in all other cases. If set, password means the passphrase for the key. Since Converter API 7.0
hostname | xsd:string | NetBIOS name, DNS name, or IP address. For P2V of "this local machine" this will be an empty string, so be sure to handle it appropriately.
osType | xsd:string | OS type. Controls how the agent performs remote P2V. For windowsOs we use SMB/Samba to upload a remote agent. For linuxOS and solarisOS we use ssh to upload the vmware-sysinfo utility. See ConverterComputerOsInfoOsType
password* | xsd:string | Password for the user specified by username when clientPrivateKey is not set. Passphrase for the private key when clientPrivateKey is set.
port* | xsd:int | For Windows, this is the TCP port number of Converter Agent running on the computer. The connection is always established over SSL. For Linux, this is the port number sshd is listening on.
sslThumbprint* | xsd:string | The thumbprint of the SSL certificate, which the host is expected to have. If this value is set and matches the certificate thumbprint presented by the host, then the host is authenticated. If this value is not set or does not match the certificate thumbprint presented by the host, then the host's certificate is verified by checking whether it was signed by a recognized CA. The thumbprint is always computed using the SHA1 hash and is the string representation of that hash in the format: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx where, 'x' represents a hexadecimal digit Since Converter API 2.0
username* | xsd:string | User with root/Administrator privileges.
verifyPeer* | xsd:boolean | Deprecated. As of Converter API version 4. Remote peer certificate is always verified. True by default as of Converter API version 3. Specifies whether peer's certificate should be verified. False by default. Since Converter API 2.0
