This external documentation for pyVmomi was generated using Googly Docs (aka Google Standard Documentation) which renders very cleanly in GitHub. Internal documentation for a class should be done in Sphinx format because tools like pyCharm and Eclipse can use that documentation as a hint for code completion. Note: External docs as Googly Docs, internal docs as Sphinx. Closes bug#15

vim.vm.device.VirtualUSB.USBBackingInfo
|
|
=======================================
|
|
The `VirtualUSBUSBBackingInfo`_ data object identifies a USB device on the host where the virtual machine is located. This type of backing supports only a local connection where the virtual machine will remain on the host to which the USB device is attached.To identify the USB device, you specify an autoconnect pattern for the `deviceName`_ . The virtual machine can connect to the USB device if the ESX server can find a USB device described by the autoconnect pattern. The autoconnect pattern consists of name:value pairs. You can use any combination of the following fields.
|
|
* path - USB connection path on the host
|
|
* pid - idProduct field in the USB device descriptor
|
|
* vid - idVendor field in the USB device descriptor
|
|
* hostId - unique ID for the host
|
|
* speed - device speed (low, full, or high)For example, the following pattern identifies a USB device:"path:1/3/0 hostId:44\ 45\ 4c\ 43\ 00\ 10\ 54-80\ 35\ ca\ c0\ 4f\ 4d\ 37\ 31"This pattern identifies the USB device connected to port 1/3/0 on the host with the unique id0x44454c4c430010548035cac04f4d3731.Special characters for autoconnect pattern values:
|
|
* The name and value are separated by a colon (:).
|
|
* Name:value pairs are separated by spaces.
|
|
* The escape character is a backslash (\). Use a single backslash to embed a space in a value. Use a double blackslash to embed a single backslash in the value.
