Description
|
enable3DSupport | xsd:boolean |
Flag to indicate whether the virtual video card supports 3D functions.
This property can only be updated when the virtual machine is powered
off.
Since vSphere API 4.0
|
graphicsMemorySizeInKB | xsd:long |
The size of graphics memory.
If 3d support is enabled this setting gives the amount of guest memory
used for graphics resources.
This property can only be updated when the virtual machine is
powered off.
Since vSphere API 6.0
|
numDisplays | xsd:int |
Indicates the number of supported monitors.
The number of displays X the maximum resolution of each display is
bounded by the video RAM size of the virtual video card.
This property can only be updated when the virtual machine is
powered off.
Since vSphere API 4.0
|
use3dRenderer | xsd:string |
Indicate how the virtual video device renders 3D graphics.
The virtual video device can use hardware acceleration and software
rendering. By default, VMware products determine whether or not to
use hardware acceleration based on the availability of physical graphics
devices. Certain workloads can benefit from explicitly specifying if
hardware acceleration is required. For example, 3D intensive workloads
may indicate to run on systems with graphics hardware.
There are three settings.
(automatic) - The virtual device chooses how to render 3D graphics (default).
(software) - The virtual device will use software rendering and
will not attempt to use hardware acceleration.
(hardware) - The virtual device will use hardware acceleration and
will not activate without it.
Since vSphere API 5.1
|
useAutoDetect | xsd:boolean |
Flag to indicate whether the display settings of the host on which the
virtual machine is running should be used to automatically determine
the display settings of the virtual machine's video card.
This setting takes effect at virtual machine power-on time. If this
value is set to TRUE, numDisplays will be ignored.
Since vSphere API 4.0
|
videoRamSizeInKB | xsd:long |
The size of the framebuffer for a virtual machine.
