      In order to run regression we would like to be able to create the same vms between versions by destroying the existing datastore to free up space and then create the vms for regression cases to run. 

      The script should take in the following 4 arguments:

      1. vm prefix name
      2. template datastore name for template source
      3. datasource target for where to populate vms on
      4. number of vms to generate

      If you prefer to use template name and not 'vm-prefix' name as input arguments, thats  fine but please update template name to be "template$vm-prefix"

      Why:

      Template_A => harder to understand without looking up what it reference.

      Template_rhel79-50gb-70usage-vm  => clear which template its references.

       

      Task focuses:

      • Develop automation using PowerShell for VMware/govc*
      • Deploy all 7 templates  from the new DS on vmware - "InfraTemplates_Global_4TB"
      • Verify that the automation code works as expected by deploying 1 vm from the template
      • Validate that data capacity aligns with expectations, based on the template specifications listed in the Excel sheet
      • If possible you can consider leaving larger templates on a dedicated nvme and by utilizing the 4 arguments in the example we save space on the netapp.

       

      {}/Its preferable if you can use *govc if you prefer to use powershell to save time its fine.

      see generated general example if its helpful here
