Since we merged this so that the community could collaborate on improvements, I thought it would be prudent to inform potential users of the status of the provider so they know what to expect.

# vSphere Provider
|
|
|
|
The vSphere provider is used to interact with the resources supported by vSphere.
|
|
The provider needs to be configured with the proper credentials before it can be used.
|
|
|
|
Use the navigation to the left to read about the available resources.
|
|
|
|
~> **NOTE:** The vSphere Provider currently represents _initial support_ and
|
|
therefore may undergo significant changes as the community improves it.
|
|
|
|
## Example Usage
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# Configure the vSphere Provider
|
|
provider "vsphere" {
|
|
user = "${var.vsphere_user}"
|
|
password = "${var.vsphere_password}"
|
|
vcenter_server = "${var.vsphere_vcenter_server}"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
# Create a virtual machine
|
|
resource "vsphere_virtual_machine" "web" {
|
|
name = "terraform_web"
|
|
vcpu = 2
