New-LCMClusterRuleWithTransform

Create a new Rule based on the provided parameters.This API takes in a Rule name, a list of Rule.Pattern items and a Lifecycle managed Cluster whch is to be used to retrieve the desired software specification and any Host Profile attached to the target Cluster. This API will also generate and cache a new PxeProfile (if needed) based on the desired software specification retrieved from the Lifecycle managed Cluster. All the resulting items will be populated in the Rule.Spec object associated with the newly created Rule.

Syntax

-LcmCluster <VIObjectCore>
-Name <String>
-NoSignatureCheck
-Pattern <String[]>
[-Item <VIObjectCore[]>]
[CommonParameters]

Parameters

Required	Parameter Name	Type	Position	Features	Description
required	LcmCluster	VIObjectCore	named		A vCenter Cluster managed by Lifecycle to be used as a source for the desired soft specification and Host Profile to be used for the host(s) bootstrap
required	Name	String	named		Name of the new rule.
required	NoSignatureCheck	SwitchParameter	named		Indicates if a signature verification of the VIBs to be used for bootstraping should be performed.
required	Pattern	String[]	named		Set of hosts the new rule should apply to. Pattern strings use the following syntax: == Adds a pattern that exactly matches the specified value against the specified attribute. Use this syntax if you need to match a string that contains a comma. =[,val2,... ,valN] Adds a pattern that matches against the comma-separated list of values. Supported value types are: string Exact string match - Range of IPv4 addresses.
optional	Item	VIObjectCore[]	named	pipeline	Item the rule should apply to the hosts. Can be an image profile, a script bundle, a host profile, or a folder or cluster on the vCenter Server system to add the host to.
