Hello,

My institution has some specific requirements around OS deployment, for example windows OS goes on Windows tagged datastore clusters. I got that working through Cloud_vSphere_Machine: stanza. But then I thought, what if I could get that information to stay with the Cloud Configuration under the Image.
My Design Template is as follows
formatVersion: 1
resources:
Cloud_vSphere_Machine_1:
type: Cloud.vSphere.Machine
properties:
Infoblox.IPAM.Network.dnsView: Internal
image: DevWinServ2019
folderName: ${"vRA_Deployed/" + env.projectName}
networks:
- network: ${resource.Cloud_NSX_Network_1.id}
assignment: static
securityGroups: []
flavor: base-dev
tags:
- key: OS
value: Windows
constraints:
- tag: OS:Windows
storage:
constraints:
- tag: StorageOS:Windows
- tag: StoragePurpose:Primary
maxDiskCapacityInGB: 1
bootDiskCapacityInGB: 1
Cloud_NSX_Network_1:
type: Cloud.NSX.Network
properties:
networkType: existing
constraints:
- tag: OS:Windows
And my image Cloud Configuration:
resources:
properties:
customizationSpec: Org_DomainJoin
tags:
- key: nsxSecurityTag
- value: WindowsAdmin-Managed
I'm getting my project specific nsxSecurityTag's imported from my project. But I can't seem to get this one tag imported from the image. If I put this tag in the resources stanza of the Design Template, it works. As you see, I have some very windows centered configurations I'd like to move into the image Cloud Configuration. But I'm not moving it until I can see this nsxSecurityTag imported/merged into the design blueprint deployment.
Documentation only got me so far. Any suggestions to what I am doing wrong in the Cloud Configuration?
