Custom OVF Property in my Virtual appliance

$
0
0

I'm trying to create an additional property in my VM that I build with VMware Studio so that I can use OVFTool to pass a value for the property when I deploy the VM to a vCenter.

 

The property looks like that shown in red.  But when I invoke OVFTool to give a value to this property, what am I supposed to be using? 

 

Something like this I can't get to work:

 

    ovftool  <...>  --prop.ConfigurationManagementServer.My_VM_Name= 10.1.2.3   <..>

 

Thanks for any hints,

CJ
