Description

When creating a new host using VMWare compute resource it would be great to be able to select on which ESXi host in the cluster it should be created on

There are some cases where its desirable to have a VM running on a specific host in an ESX cluster. This may be operational (grouping VMs with similar service levels together), performance ("manual" load balancing, keeping "developer" VMs seperate from "production" VMs, etc.) or a number of other organizational specific reasons.

fog-vsphere supports the necessary changes.

It should be fairly easy to add this to theforeman now.
We just need to list the hosts in the ui and pass the parameter to fog.
