Custom Property data deduplication

$

Is it possible to set the value of a custom property to be the value of another custom property?

 

I have a vCO workflow that I have made its input variables custom properties on a vCAC blueprint.  One of the properties specifies the virtual machine name (ExternalWFStubs.MachineProvisioned.vmName).  Now I'm setting the name of the VM via the vRO blueprint (VirtualMachine.Admin.Name) since I'm deploying the virtual machine using a vCAC blueprint rather than having vCO do it.  This is because I'm using network profiles for dynamic network creation and I find it easier to let vCAC handle this rather than write the workflows to have vCO handle everything.

 

Is it possible within vCAC to link the value of VirtualMachine.Admin.Name to the value of the WFStub vmName property or vice versa?  I'd really hate for users to have to put in the same data multiple times.

 

 

Since vCAC is calling vCO to create the virtual machines anyways, I can only imagine that the data is accessible from there as well.  I'm still learning vCO so if it's easier to do it there, please let me know.
