Properties

Disable HA Admission control on the cluster.
Enable Quick Boot during remediation in the cluster.
Evacuate powered off/suspended VMs when attempting maintenance mode.
What action is to be taken if entering maintenance mode fails on a given host of the cluster.
The Effective.EffectivePolicySpec.PreRemediationPowerAction enumerated type defines the possible actions to be taken, before entering maintenance mode.
POWER_OFF_VMS : Power off VMs before entering maintenance mode.
SUSPEND_VMS : Suspend VMs before entering maintenance mode
DO_NOT_CHANGE_VMS_POWER_STATE : Do not change the VM power state
SUSPEND_VMS_TO_MEMORY : Suspend VMs to Memory before entering maintenance mode
Possible values are: POWER_OFF_VMS , SUSPEND_VMS , DO_NOT_CHANGE_VMS_POWER_STATE , SUSPEND_VMS_TO_MEMORY
Enforce Hcl validation, when applicable, to prevent remediation if hardware compatibility issues are found. This field is optional because it was added in a newer version than its parent node.
Enable parallel remediation of hosts in maintenance mode. Set max hosts when applicable. If unset, parallel remediation will not happen.
