Getting Password string in ovf property

$

0

Hello,

I been working on the setting properties in the ovf template and this is working fine so far.

Basically, I add property in the product section under property tag and read its value during deployment time using

/usr/sbin/vmtoolsd --cmd 'info-get guestinfo.ovfEnv'

 

<ProductSection ovf:class="com.palm.product" ovf:instance="1">

     <Info>info section</Info>
     <Product>LimeLite</Product>
     <Vendor>Palm</Vendor>

     <Property ovf:key="UserName" ovf:type="string" ovf:userConfigurable="true" ovf:value="Admin" ovf:qualifiers="MinLen(0),MaxLen(65535)">
          <Label>UserName</Label>
          <Description>Creates an user account with the Name provided</Description>
     </Property>

</ProductSection>

 

Now, I need get password for the user account which we create during deployment. I looked into property data types and I couldn't figure out

the password type that masks the password entered in the dailog during deployment time.

 

Is password functionality avaialbe in the ovf template already ? If yes, please point me to the location from where I can make use of this.

 

The property type which are avaialbe in the settings is:

String, StringChoice, Integer, Real, Boolean, External IP Address, vApp IP Address.

 

I coudn't find password type in here.
