Overview of the Issue

The 'Optional SSH Fields' section of Vsphere ISO builder has a lot of misunderstanding information.

Detailed Issue

Document of Vsphere ISO builder, at the 'Optional SSH Fields' section, some fields are mentioning the Amazon EC2/ AWS/ AMI which are not correct in this case:

  • ssh_keypair_name (string) - If specified, this is the key that will be used for SSH with the machine. The key must match a key pair name loaded up into Amazon EC2. <...>
  • <...>
  • ssh_agent_auth (bool) - <...> To use this option with a key pair already configured in the source AMI, leave the ssh_keypair_name blank. To associate an existing key pair in AWS with the source instance, set the ssh_keypair_name field to the name of the key pair. The environment variable SSH_AUTH_SOCK must be set for this option to work properly.
