Vmware Dynamic Inventory update creation on Ansible Tower.

 Follow the below mentioned steps to configure Dynamic inventory update on Ansible Tower.

Selecting this credential type enables synchronization of inventory with VMware vCenter.

The automation controller uses the following environment variables for VMware vCenter credentials and are fields prompted in the user interface:

VMware credentials have the following inputs that are required:

• vCenter Host: The vCenter hostname or IP address to connect to.

• Username: The username to use to connect to vCenter.

• Password: The password to use to connect to vCenter.

1. To configure a VMWare-sourced inventory, select VMware vCenter from the Source field.

2. The Create Source window expands with the required Credential field. Choose from an existing VMware Credential. For more information, refer to Credentials.

3. You can optionally specify the verbosity, host filter, enabled variable/value, and update options as described in the main procedure for adding a source.

4. Use the Source Variables field to override variables used by the vmware_inventory inventory plugin. Enter variables using either JSON or YAML syntax. Use the radio button to toggle between the two. For a detailed description of these variables, view the vmware_inventory inventory plugin.

Starting with Ansible 2.9, VMWare properties have changed from lower case to camelCase. The controller provides aliases for the top-level keys, but lower case keys in nested properties have been discontinued. For a list of valid and supported properties starting with Ansible 2.9, refer to virtual machine attributes in the VMware dynamic inventory plugin.
