I am working on how to migrate all our VMs from vRA7 to vRA8 using the Onboarding system. But the Onboarding does not allow you to set properties so I will have to do that after the VMs are onboarded. However, I have looked at swagger and I do not see any way to set properties on a VM in a deployment. Any suggestions are welcome 🙂 We have a lot of business data we want to maintain in those properties.
Thanks,
Carl L.
