Good morning,
I want to use the Guest Script Manager plugin (VMWare Tools) to execute a software installation on a VM(s) during a deployment. The machines will be joined to a domain via the "clonespec" attribute. But before I start the installation I want to be sure that the VM(s) is not restarted.. And also before the deployment status is set to 100% / complete to avoid users loggin on the the machines.
I have found - but not sure - that some of the last events / phases are:
lifecycleState.phase:string: POST
lifecycleState.state:string: VMPSMasterWorkflow32.MachineActivated
and
lifecycleState.event:string: VMPSMasterWorkflow32.VMPSMasterWorkflow32.EVENT.OnFinalizeMachine
lifecycleState.phase:string: EVENT
lifecycleState.state:string: VMPSMasterWorkflow32.VMPSMasterWorkflow32
Is it one of these events I have to look for - when am I safe to run my task to avoid VRA deployment activity and user activity?
Is such possible at all. I am not to run the intergrated software deployment due to the licese, and I am also not fully convinced about going via a Powershell host..
Many thanks, K
lifecycleState.phase:string: POST
