erm, not quite understand what do you mean? via admin web-interface?
there's no fields/options related to payload in web interface, not in
'edit vm' dialog, not in 'runonce' dialog (only 'attach
cd/floppy',
'custom properties' with fixed choice-list and general options).
its not exposed in the UI, but in the engine REST API.
However, I've achieved my goal some other way - wrote a hook that fills
'SKU Number' bios field (not used by default) with VM name. It appeared
even more simpler and convenient solution than vmpayload/fileinject.
Hook is in attach, in case someone interested.
works as well :)
