"__Notes" is what you'll want.

yeah as i suspected, but even if i am wrting to this property, it is not writing to the Drsription field of the Machine in vCAC console although i can see Value written in DB in VirtualMachineProperties Table.

and also found Column 'Notes' in VirtualMachine Table  which actually corresponds to Decription Field on vCAC portal.

Do you know how can i make it published to the Descrition Field in Portal.

So, if you read this blog post, it'll show you how to rename the VM. The description field is stored as another property in the object named, oddly Notes.. Use the same workflow logic, just setting the property of name of Notes with whatever value you want for it, and you should be good to go.
