Hi,
I'm trying to automate some task using OVF descriptors, located in "Guest Properties". For the starting point i used following post Example for configuring VM's "guest properties" (i.e. OVF settings) (pretty old post so i started a new thread). In the script author sets field "value", but i found that values appears in OvfPropertyConfigurationValue field that contains an array (it doesn’t matter, the error is the same in both cases, but just in case I mention it). I modified the script a bit and now it looks like this:
# Search for the guest properties section (OVF settings) - this is called "product section" in the API/CLI
$vm = Get-CIVM -Name 'Test'
$vmProductSection = $vm.ExtensionData.GetProductSections()
$vsa = $vmProductSection.ProductSection[0]
# Set the value of individual properties
(($vsa.Items | Where-Object {$_.key -eq 'TestField1'})[0]).OvfPropertyConfigurationValue[0].Value = 'once'
(($vsa.Items | Where-Object {$_.key -eq 'TestField2'})[0]).OvfPropertyConfigurationValue[0].Value = 'AGAIN'
# Commit the changes
$vmProductSection.UpdateServerData()
Values for fields are set correctly, but commiting changes fails with the folloing error:
Exception calling "UpdateServerData" with "0" argument(s): "Unable to cast object of type 'VMware.VimAutomation.Cloud.Schema.Msg_Type' to type 'VMware.VimAutomation.Cloud.Schema.VCloudExtensibleType'."
Please, help solve the problem.
