vim.ImportSpec
==============
An ImportSpec is used when importing VMs or vApps.It can be built from scratch, or it can be generated from an OVF descriptor using the service interface `OvfManager`_ .This class is the abstract base for `VirtualMachineImportSpec`_ and `VirtualAppImportSpec`_ . These three classes form a composite structure that allows us to contain arbitrarily complex entitites in a single ImportSpec.
:extends: vmodl.DynamicData_
:since: `vSphere API 4.0`_
Attributes:
entityConfig (`vim.vApp.EntityConfigInfo`_, optional):
Configuration of sub-entities (virtual machine or vApp). This is used for sub-entities of a vApp that could be a virtual machine or a vApp.
instantiationOst (`vim.OvfConsumer.OstNode`_, optional):
The instantiation OST (see `OvfConsumer`_ ) to be consumed by OVF consumers.
