Need OVF deploy example including static ip assignment about vsphere-automation-sdk-rest

[strefethen]

Hi @ReinsBrain, while we don't have an example in the REST SDK for deployment we have two samples here and here that may help on the deployment question. What specifically were you tripped up on with the documentation? I'd like to pass that information on to the CL team.

@ReinsBrain It would also be good to know what OVF you are trying to deploy, is this a custom OVF or a pre built vendor OVF, the reason why is that built OVF's sometimes have configuration data where you can set the static IP address during deployment (supported in this API), if not and its a custom OVF that you are looking to use Guest Customization on as you deploy then that is currently not available via the REST API.

{
"name": "com.vmware.vapi.rest.httpNotFound",
"localizableMessages": [
{
"defaultMessage": "Not found.",
"id": "com.vmware.vapi.rest.httpNotFound"
}
],
"majorErrorCode": 404
}

any idea ???

@hocineKHE : i think this happens when you are trying to hit an API that was released in a higher version of vSphere and you are running an older version of vSphere.
