Windows Guest Customization

Hi,

We have below simple requirements but we are confused with the guest customization.

1. Static IP by Network profile

2. User self define the Windows password

In order to use static IP, we know that it require to use the Customization Specification in vCenter.

And also require the custom property "VirtualMachine.NetworkN.ProfileName"

Thus we first setup a Customization Specification with all the information filled in including a blank password provided.

Secondly, we also use another custom property "Sysprep.GuiUnattended.AdminPassword" in order to let user input password.

But, we find the Windows guest provisioned finally come without password although the user already filled in the Sysprep.GuiUnattended.AdminPassword field.

Any idea ?

Thanks.
