It is a regular expression for free text.

For other properties it would be different :
'pincpu=^[0-9]+$'   only numbers
sap_agent=^(true|false)$'    only true or false

Hi,

Regarding command => engine-config -s UserDefinedVMProperties='vmdisk=^.*$'

How you come to know about "^.*$" to set for vmdisk ?

Please explain in detail.

Thanks,

Hi,

I assume you are referring to the vmdisk hook [1]  ?

First, you need to install the hook on the host.

To display the existing VM properties:
engine-config -g UserDefinedVMProperties

Add the vmdisk property, you will have to select the DC version:
engine-config -s UserDefinedVMProperties='vmdisk=^.*$'

Check that value is configured:
engine-config -g UserDefinedVMProperties

Restart the engine.

Now, it should be available in the UI.
