Name and Location

You specify the display name and the location of the virtual machine by using the CreateSpec and PlacementSpec classes.

When you create your virtual machine, use the setName method of the CreateSpec class to pass as argument the display name of the virtual machine.

You must create also a PlacementSpec instance that describes the location of the virtual machine in regards to the resources of a given vCenter Server instance. Use the setPlacement(PlacementSpec placement) method of the CreateSpec class to set the placement information for the virtual machine. You can set one or all of the following vSphere resources: datastore, cluster, folder, host, and resource pool.
