2.8.2 (June 28, 2024)

BUG FIX:

• resource/file: Updated to ensure that incoming file names with special characters (+,
  specifically) retain their original name when uploaded.
  (#2217)
• resource/virtual_machine: Updated searchPath to use path instead of filepath since this is
  a vSphere inventory path (e.g., \Datacenter\vm\<vm_name>), not a directory path.
  (#2216)
• resource/virtual_machine: Removed the default values for ept_rvi_mode and hv_mode from the
  virtual machine configuration.
  (#2230)
• resource/virtual_machine: Fixed overflow for the disk sub-resource when running a 32-bit version
  of the provider. Modified the call to GiBToByte by passing the parameter as int64 which forces the
  function to go through the 64-bit case.
  (#2200)

FEATURES:

• data/virtual_machine: Added support for instance_uuid.
  (#2198)

DOCUMENTATION:

• datasource/ovf_vm_template and resource/virtual_machine: Updated to use a Ubuntu Server cloud
  image since the nested ESXi OVA images are no longer available for direct download from Flings.
  (#2215)
• resource/virtual_machine: Updated to denote support and limitations for options.
  (#2218)
• resource/virtual_machine: Added examples for the use of guest customization specifications.
  (#2218)
• Removed deprecated interpolation syntax where it is no longer required.
  (#2220)
• Updated examples to use the correct syntax, formatting, and alignment with other examples in the
  docs. (#2222)
• Updated all links in documentation, as necessary.
  (#2212)

CHORE:

• provider: Updated vmware/govmomi to v0.38.0.
  (#2229)
• provider: Updated hashicorp/terraform-plugin-sdk to v2.34.0.
  (#2201)
• provider: Added version tracking (// Minimum Supported Version: x.y.z) where there is a version
  restriction. This is preparation for removing checks and to support only 7.0 and later per the
  product lifecycle.
  (#2213)

2.8.1 (May 08, 2024)

BUG FIX:

• resource/virtual_machine: Reverts removing the default values for ept_rvi_mode and hv_mode
  from the virtual machine configuration.
  (#2194)

2.8.0 (May 07, 2024)

BUG FIX:

• resource/virtual_machine: Removed the default values for ept_rvi_mode and hv_mode from the
  virtual machine configuration. (#2172)
• resource/virtual_machine: Fixed issue when network interfaces, created by Docker, with the same
  deviceConfigId causes an unexpected output. (#2121)

FEATURES:

• resource/virtual_machine: Adds support for specifying a datastore_cluster_id when cloning from
  a vSphere content library. (#2061)

• resource/guest_os_customization: Adds support for domain_ou for Windows customizations added

• Adds resources for vSphere workload management. (#2791)

  • Enable workload management on a cluster.
  • Creatw custom namespaces and VM classes.
  • Choose a content library.
  • Configure passthrough devices for VM classes (e.g. vGPU).

• resource/vsphere_offline_software_depot: Adds resource to the provider for offline software
  depots. Support for online depots can be added at a later time. Only depots with source type
  "PULL" are supported. This is intentional and aims to discourage the use of the deprecated VUM
  functionality. (#2143)

• data/vsphere_host_base_images: Adds data source to the provider for base images. Declaring this
  data source allows users to retrieve the full list of available ESXi versions for their
  environment. (#2143)

• resource/vsphere_compute_cluster: Adds property that serves as an entry point for the vLCM
  configuration. Allows selection of a base image and a list of custom components from a depot.
  Configuring this property for the first time also enables vLCM on the cluster. (#2143)

DOCUMENTATION:

• vsphere_folder: Added clarification for storage folders instead of datastore folders. (#2183)
• resource/virtual_machine: Corrected resource and data source anchor links intended for
  virtual_machine#virtual-machine-customizations. (#2182)

2.7.0 (March 06, 2024)

BUG FIXES:

• resource/virtual_machine: Fixes support for SR-IOV passthrough virtual machine network adapters. (#2133)
• resource/virtual_machine: Unifies disk.keep_on_remove with default and disk.label with the correct one assigned to the virtual machine disk during import. If the datastore for a virtual machine is part of a datastore cluster the datastore_cluster_id attribute is filled during import. (#2127)
• resource/virtual_machine: Changed the default value for sync_time_with_host in r/vsphere_virtual_machine to true to align with default value provided by the UI and API. (#2120)
• resource/virtual_machine: Added the virtual machine folder in the search for virtual machine criteria when deploying from an OVF/OVA. scenario. Allows virtual machines with same names in different virtual machine folders to be not distinguished as different managed entities. (#2118)
• resource/virtual_disk: Fixes import to use the correct the vmdk_path. (#1762)

FEATURES:

• resource/virtual_machine: Adds support for memory_reservation_locked_to_max property. If set true, memory resource reservation for the virtual machine will always be equal to the virtual machine's memory size. (#2093)
