Hello Guys
In a cluster with 23 VM best practices were applied to all VMs. The environment are 4 nodes with esxi 6.5 U1 and vCenter 6.5 U2.
Now, is possible enable by example that each time a new VM is created, it is created for example with these parameters
isolation.bios.bbs.disable
RemoteDisplay.maxConnections = 1
isolation.tools.diskShrink.disable
I search information but I have not been able to find how to make it every time a VM is created or created with all the above.
It is possible to tell me if there is a way to leave default values when creating a VM.
Thanks
Sebas
What paramaters specifically you are looking for which has to be applied for VM when it creates ?

Hi,
If you want to create a VM with some parameters just create a template with those.
Otherwise, you can create a script to perform the operation (create the VM) and then add the parameters.
As I know, there is no such an option to configure the default VM creation.
Hello
By recomendation the VM need the following
isolation.bios.bbs.disable -Value TRUE
isolation.device.connectable.disable -Value TRUE
isolation.tools.diskWiper.disable -Value TRUE
I run a script in powercli and change all value in the exist VM but need to know who enable this parameters when a new VM is created.
Thanks

When a new VM is created whichever options available with out any modification are default parameters.
Also I dont see specific agent or some thing to do this, This could be the default behaviour unless we need those paramater and turn it on by adding those into vmx file.
