.. option:: --total-units [integer]
Total quantity of licensed units for the specified `softwareType`:
- VCF, VDEFEND: number of OCPUs - VSAN: storage capacity in TiB (tebibytes) - AVI_LOAD_BALANCER: number of instances
Optional Parameters
--------------------
.. option:: --defined-tags [complex type]
Defined tags for this resource. Each key is predefined and scoped to a namespace. For more information, see `Resource Tags `__.
Example:
.. code-block:: python
{"Operations": {"CostCenter": "42"}}
This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using
the file://path/to/file syntax.
The :option:`--generate-param-json-input` option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example
in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.
.. option:: --description [text]
A description of the BYOL.
.. option:: --freeform-tags [complex type]
Free-form tags for this resource. Each tag is a simple key-value pair with no predefined name, type, or namespace. For more information, see `Resource Tags `__.
Example:
.. code-block:: python
{"Department": "Finance"}
This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using
the file://path/to/file syntax.
The :option:`--generate-param-json-input` option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example
in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.
.. option:: --from-json [text]
Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the file://path-to/file syntax.
The :option:`--generate-full-command-json-input` option can be used to generate a sample json file to be used with this command option. The key names are pre-populated and match the command option names (converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id --> compartmentId), while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a JSON array.
Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line specified value will be used.
For examples on usage of this option, please see our "using CLI with advanced JSON options" link: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions
.. option:: --max-wait-seconds [integer]
The maximum time to wait for the work request to reach the state defined by ``--wait-for-state``. Defaults to 1200 seconds.
.. option:: --wait-for-state [text]
This operation asynchronously creates, modifies or deletes a resource and uses a work request to track the progress of the operation. Specify this option to perform the action and then wait until the work request reaches a certain state. Multiple states can be specified, returning on the first state. For example, ``--wait-for-state`` ACCEPTED ``--wait-for-state`` CANCELED would return on whichever lifecycle state is reached first. If timeout is reached, a return code of 2 is returned. For any other error, a return code of 1 is returned.
Accepted values are:
.. code-block:: py
ACCEPTED, CANCELED, CANCELING, FAILED, IN_PROGRESS, SUCCEEDED
.. option:: --wait-interval-seconds [integer]
Check every ``--wait-interval-seconds`` to see whether the work request has reached the state defined by ``--wait-for-state``. Defaults to 30 seconds.
