Automation Assembler supports a small number of properties that might be useful outside of production environments or in other special situations.

Special properties do not appear in the VMware Aria Automation resource schema.

Caution: The following properties should only be applied in cases where guest OS customization isn't being tested or expected.
awaitIp

By default, VMware Aria Automation provisioning status isn't reported as Finished until the guest OS is fully powered on and configuration has completed.

Use of awaitIp: false allows provisioning to finish even though full configuration did not occur.

CAUTION: Use of this setting completes the provisioning process sooner but might result in an unconfigured machine with no IP address.

awaitHostName

Similar to awaitIp, use of awaitHostName: false allows provisioning to finish even though the machine might not have been configured with a host name.
