VMXNET3 via the API
Is this the correct way to set the Vmxnet3 property for a VMware template
via the API?
It does not seem to be working even though it seems to be accepted via the
API. Any ideas?

Thanks Rohit. Unfortunately I am not able to use cloudmonkey (which is
awesome btw) in this case since this is being built into a bigger tool. I
am currently using my own library: https://github.com/swill/csapi
With a bunch of trial and error I was able to figure out that it had to be
passed as follows.

I need to do a once through of the API documentation at some point and
figure out and document how stuff like this is passed. The documentation
on anything that is not a basic string getting passed in is horrible.
Things like creating network service offerings through the API and
specifying capabilities is near impossible to understand. I am not even
sure we are consistent about how we handle it either. I will have to spend
some time on that when I have some free moments.
Thanks again for the details. :)

Re: VMXNET3 via the API

Using cloudmonkey, pass args: (note lowercase)
details[0].key=nicAdapter details[0].value=vmxnet3
If it's not working, check if the version of CloudStack supports this feature (overriding the default nic adapter setting using template details). Alternatively, you can pass this while deploying the vm using deployVirtualMachine API.
