------------------------------------------------

             Summary: Provide input parameter "force" to addVmwareDc API
                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-3800
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-3800
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
          Components: VMware
            Reporter: Sateesh Chodapuneedi
            Assignee: Sateesh Chodapuneedi


Cloudstack sets custom field (over specific VMware DC) named 'cloud.zone' to true when a VMware DC is added to cloudstack, to indicate that this VMware DC is being used by this cloudstack deployment. But if user wants to re-deploy new cloudstack instance after improper cleanup of earlier setup (without disassociating/removing VMware DC from zone using UI or removeVmwareDc API) then while re-deploying user will see following error while adding Vmware DC to zone.
""Failed to add VMware DC to zone due to : This DC is being managed by other CloudStack deployment. Cannot add this DC to zone."

If user would like to force the addition of VMware DC to zone knowing that he can use force parameter setting to true.
