[one-users] Trying to run opennebula using VMWare on Windows

[Tino Vazquez]

Hi Manish,

You are getting this errors because the VMware server doesn't have the
"hardware.memorySize" property, or, rather, it exists under other
name. My experience is that, for some reason, differente VMware server
versions have different property names (the OpenNebula drivers were
developed against ESXi).

We are quite busy at the moment preparing the v1.6 release so I don't
really have the time to dig into this, but we would appreciate any
feedback. I think the VI SDK documentation is the right place to look,
take a look at the programming guide [1], and the API reference [2] (I
believe all the properties are listed here).

Best regards,

-Tino
