Hi!

I just wanted to inform all of you, that I am not able to update this article. 🙂 Basically, it’s up-to-date (in theory), because most part of this article is valid. But I know that vSphere Provider is growing very fast, and if there is new functionality in the provider, I don’t know about it (I have not been working with vSphere anymore). Also, if such functionality is marked as “required” in the .tf file, my article can be misleading. But I don’t want to remove this post – it still has some helpful information, but I want to be honest with all readers, so I’ve added this annotation.

Hi Emil,
Thank you for your write-up.
It is quite good! But how do you mean that it’s out-dated?

Hi! Thanks a lot for your feedback. To be honest, it’s quite outdated post… I have not been working with VMware for about a year, so it’s hard for me to update and add some more topics. But anyway thank you very much, because I recalled this article. And I should mark it (and similar articles) as outdated. 🙂

Nice intro but the most important part would be how to go on after you deployed the basic infrastructure. There has to be some adjustment on the DHCP/DNS-Server to make it work with Ansible (or another configuration management tool). I was missing that area …
