Member Function Documentation

LinuxConfiguration vmware::vcenter::guest::LinuxConfiguration::Builder::Build ( ) [inline]
Builder vmware::vcenter::guest::LinuxConfiguration::Builder::SetScriptText ( string  scriptText) [inline]

The script to run before and after Linux guest customization.

The max size of the script is 1500 bytes. As long as the script (shell, perl, python...) has the right "#!" in the header, it is supported. The caller should not assume any environment variables when the script is run.

The script is invoked by the customization engine using the command line: 1) with argument "precustomization" before customization, 2) with argument "postcustomization" after customization. The script should parse this argument and implement pre-customization or post-customization task code details in the corresponding block.

A Linux shell script example:

 #!/bin/sh
                 if [ x$1 == x"precustomization" ]; then
                 echo "Do Precustomization tasks"
                 #code for pre-customization actions...
                 elif [ x$1 == x"postcustomization" ]; then
                 echo "Do Postcustomization tasks"
                 #code for post-customization actions...
                 fi
