Member Enumeration Documentation

enum vmware::vcenter::vm::hardware::SerialTypes::BackingType::Values

C# enum whose values can be used in switch statements.

Ordinals have no semantic meaning (your code should not rely on them).

Enumerator:

_UNKNOWN	Special enumeration constant which is used to represent constants that do not exist in the current enum binding. For example if a client sends a new constant to an older server, the server code will see this special constant, because its enum binding lacks the new constant.
FILE	Virtual serial port is backed by a file.
HOST_DEVICE	Virtual serial port is backed by a device on the host where the virtual machine is running.
PIPE_SERVER	Virtual serial port is backed by a named pipe server. The virtual machine will accept a connection from a host application or another virtual machine on the same host. This is useful for capturing debugging information sent through the virtual serial port.
PIPE_CLIENT	Virtual serial port is backed by a named pipe client. The virtual machine will connect to the named pipe provided by a host application or another virtual machine on the same host. This is useful for capturing debugging information sent through the virtual serial port.
NETWORK_SERVER	Virtual serial port is backed by a network server. This backing may be used to create a network-accessible serial port on the virtual machine, accepting a connection from a remote system.
NETWORK_CLIENT	Virtual serial port is backed by a network client. This backing may be used to create a network-accessible serial port on the virtual machine, initiating a connection to a remote system.

Member Data Documentation

readonly BackingType vmware::vcenter::vm::hardware::SerialTypes::BackingType::FILE = new BackingType("FILE", Values.FILE) [static]

Virtual serial port is backed by a file.

readonly BackingType vmware::vcenter::vm::hardware::SerialTypes::BackingType::HOST_DEVICE = new BackingType("HOST_DEVICE", Values.HOST_DEVICE) [static]

Virtual serial port is backed by a device on the host where the virtual machine is running.

readonly BackingType vmware::vcenter::vm::hardware::SerialTypes::BackingType::NETWORK_CLIENT = new BackingType("NETWORK_CLIENT", Values.NETWORK_CLIENT) [static]

Virtual serial port is backed by a network client.

This backing may be used to create a network-accessible serial port on the virtual machine, initiating a connection to a remote system.

readonly BackingType vmware::vcenter::vm::hardware::SerialTypes::BackingType::NETWORK_SERVER = new BackingType("NETWORK_SERVER", Values.NETWORK_SERVER) [static]

Virtual serial port is backed by a network server.

This backing may be used to create a network-accessible serial port on the virtual machine, accepting a connection from a remote system.

readonly BackingType vmware::vcenter::vm::hardware::SerialTypes::BackingType::PIPE_CLIENT = new BackingType("PIPE_CLIENT", Values.PIPE_CLIENT) [static]

Virtual serial port is backed by a named pipe client.

The virtual machine will connect to the named pipe provided by a host application or another virtual machine on the same host. This is useful for capturing debugging information sent through the virtual serial port.

readonly BackingType vmware::vcenter::vm::hardware::SerialTypes::BackingType::PIPE_SERVER = new BackingType("PIPE_SERVER", Values.PIPE_SERVER) [static]

Virtual serial port is backed by a named pipe server.

The virtual machine will accept a connection from a host application or another virtual machine on the same host. This is useful for capturing debugging information sent through the virtual serial port.
