VMWare Support
Roboconf has a IaaS implementation for VMWare.
It only supports the creation of compute VMs.
VMWare support depends on your version.
What will most likely happens is that Roboconf will have several VMWare extensions, one per VMWare version.
Sample iaas.properties.
Just copy / paste and edit.
# Configuration file for VMWare
iaas.type = vmware
# REST URL
vmware.url =
# Credentials to connect
vmware.user =
vmware.password =
vmware.ignorecert = true
# Cluster information
vmware.datacenter =
vmware.cluster =
vmware.vmuser =
vmware.vmpassword =
# VM configuration
