Notes
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
- VMware sold their vCloud Air service in Q2 2017.
|
|
- VMware made significant changes to the pyvcloud interface around this time. The ``vca_vapp`` module relies on now deprecated code.
|
|
- Mileage with ``vca_vapp`` may vary as vCloud Director APIs advance.
|
|
- A viable alternative maybe https://github.com/vmware/ansible-module-vcloud-director
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
