Running this playbook I got Vapp is created on vcloud but no vm is created. Is it possible to create an empty vm with some disks?

@gabbiano83 as of now, we support the below two ways to create VMS using vcd_vapp_vm,

Create VMs from vApps
Create VMs from Catalogs.

You can use the vcd_vapp_vm_disk module to attach new disks to the VM.

It's ok, but is it possible to create an empty VM from scratch? could you link or provide an example creating from vApp ?

mukultaneja commented 3 years ago

@gabbiano83, I am working on your request but the current VCD API to create a standalone VM is broken. we are fixing it so stay tuned!
