Cant edit machine properties within MTM

Question

Hi,

When creating a new Lab \ Library I'd like to be able to edit the machine properties. However I get a yellow box saying I can only do this from within SCVMM. Any ideas? is it supported?

Im using TFS2012 and SCVMM2012

Many Thanks

Gary Howlett

Answer 1

Editing of OS Profile and Hardware profile parameters is not supported from MTM when working against SCVMM 2012. You should edit the VM template/VM from SCVMM console.

Answer 2

Is this something that will be supported in the very near future?

Answer 3

Hi G Howlett,

I am sorry that currectly there is no public official documents indicate whether it will be supported in the near future or not. And if you find it is a very important feature for you, please submit one feature request on the Microsoft UerVoice site here: http://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/121579-visual-studio

Thanks.

Hi I just wondered if we have any more information on this.

I can see there is a TFS 2012 Update 1 CPT3 out and it mentions support for SCVMM2012 - does this mean we can edit the OS \ Hardware Profiles now going forward?

Many Thanks
