The only change is to add this new feature description to the Release Note and
Dev Guide
A VMX (.vmx) file is the primary configuration file for a virtual machine. When
a new VM is created, information on the operating system, disk sizes, and
networking is stored in this file. The VM actively writes to its .vmx file for
all the configuration changes. The VMX file is typically located in the
directory where the VM is created. In Windows Vista / Windows 7 / Windows
Server 2008, the default location is C:\Users\<your_user_name>\My
Documents\Virtual Machines\<virtual_machine_name>.vmx. In Linux, vmware-cmd -l
lists the full path to all the registered VMX files. Any manual additions to
the .vmx file from ESX/ESXi are overwritten by the entries stored in the
vCenter Server database. Therefore, before you edit a .vmx file, first remove
the VM from the vCenter server's inventory and register the VM again after
editing.
The CloudStack API that supports passing some of the VMX settings is
registerTemplate. The supported parameters are rootDiskController, nicAdapter,
and keyboard. In addition to these existing VMX parameters, you can now use the
keyboard.typematicMinDelay parameter in the registerTemplate API call. This
parameter controls the amount of delay for the repeated key strokes on remote
consoles. For more information on keyboard.typematicMinDelay, see
keyboard.typematicMinDelay
