vim.vm.VirtualHardwareOption
============================
The VirtualHardwareOption data object contains the options available for all virtual devices.
:extends: vmodl.DynamicData_
Attributes:
hwVersion (`int`_):
The virtual hardware version.
virtualDeviceOption ([`vim.vm.device.VirtualDeviceOption`_]):
Array of virtual device options valid for this virtual machine configuration. The list is unordered.
deviceListReadonly (`bool`_):
Whether the set of virtual devices can be changed, e.g., can devices be added or removed. This does not preclude changing devices.
numCPU ([`int`_]):
List of acceptable values for the number of CPUs supported by this `ConfigOption`_ . This is usually superceded by the information available in the guest operating system descriptors. The guest operating system descriptor describes a maximum CPU count, but the acceptable values are still constrained to the set specified here. The default value is stored at index 0 in the list.
numCoresPerSocket (`vim.option.IntOption`_):
The minimum, maximum and default number of cores per socket that can be used when distributing virtual CPUs.
numCpuReadonly (`bool`_):
Can the number of virtual CPUs be changed
memoryMB (`vim.option.LongOption`_):
The minimum, maximum, and default memory options, in MB, per virtual machine, for this VirtualHardwareOption. These values are typically overruled by the supported and recommended values specified in the `GuestOsDescriptor`_ class.
numPCIControllers (`vim.option.IntOption`_):
The minimum, maximum, and default number of PCI controllers for this virtual machine configuration.
numIDEControllers (`vim.option.IntOption`_):
The minimum, maximum, and default number of IDE controllers for this virtual machine configuration. Note: SCSI controllers sit on the PCI controller so their options (minimum, maximum, and default values) are contained inside the `VirtualPCIControllerOption`_ class.
numUSBControllers (`vim.option.IntOption`_):
The minimum, maximum, and default number of USB controllers for this virtual machine configuration.
numUSBXHCIControllers (`vim.option.IntOption`_):
The minimum, maximum, and default number of XHCI (USB 3.0) controllers for this virtual machine configuration.
numSIOControllers (`vim.option.IntOption`_):
The minimum, maximum, and default number of SIO controllers for this virtual machine configuration.
numPS2Controllers (`vim.option.IntOption`_):
The minimum, maximum, and default number of PS2 controllers for this virtual machine configuration.
licensingLimit ([`str`_], optional):
List of propery names which limits are given be a licensing restriction of the underlying product, e.g., a limit that is not derived based on the product or hardware features. For example, the property name "numCPU"
numSupportedWwnPorts (`vim.option.IntOption`_, optional):
The minimum, maximum and default number of NPIV WorldWideNode names supported for this virtual machine configuration.
numSupportedWwnNodes (`vim.option.IntOption`_, optional):
The minimum, maximum and default number of NPIV WorldWidePort names supported for this virtual machine configuration.
resourceConfigOption (`vim.ResourceConfigOption`_):
Default value and value range for `ResourceConfigOption`_
