IMPROVEMENTS

• Add attribute metadata_entry to the following data sources:
  vcd_catalog, vcd_catalog_media, vcd_independent_disk, vcd_network_direct, vcd_network_isolated,
  vcd_network_isolated_v2, vcd_network_routed, vcd_network_routed_v2, vcd_org, vcd_org_vdc, vcd_provider_vdc,
  vcd_storage_profile, vcd_vapp, vcd_vapp_vm. This new attribute replaces metadata
  to add support of metadata visibility (user access levels), all the available types and domains for every metadata
  entry (#917)
• Add attribute metadata_entry to the following resources:
  vcd_catalog, vcd_catalog_media, vcd_independent_disk, vcd_network_direct, vcd_network_isolated,
  vcd_network_isolated_v2, vcd_network_routed, vcd_network_routed_v2, vcd_org, vcd_org_vdc, vcd_vapp,
  vcd_vapp_vm. This new attribute replaces metadata to add support of metadata visibility (user access levels),
  all the available types and domains for every metadata entry (#917)
• Add placement_policy_id attribute to vcd_vapp_vm and vcd_vm resource and data source,
  to support the usage of VM Placement Policies in VMs (#922)

  status_text (#901)
• Add vm_placement_policy_ids attribute to vcd_org_vdc resource and data source to assign existing
  VM Placement Policies to VDCs (#904, #911)
• Add default_compute_policy_id attribute to vcd_org_vdc resource and data source to specify a default
  VM Sizing Policy, VM Placement Policy or vGPU Policy for the VDC (#904, #911)
• Add attributes href, vapp_template_list, media_item_list, and publishing_url to vcd_catalog resource and data source to show published items (#916)
• Add subscribed_catalog to examples (#916)
• Upgrade Terraform SDK dependency to v2.24.1 (#920, #930)
• Resource and data source vcd_org_vdc introduce new field edge_cluster_id to specify NSX-T
  Edge Cluster for VDC (#921)

  instead of returning error (#925)
  • vcd_edgegateway_settings
  • vcd_vapp_network
  • vcd_vm_internal_disk
  • vcd_nsxv_dhcp_relay
  • vcd_vapp_static_routing
  • vcd_vapp_nat_rules

  • vcd_vapp_access_control
  • vcd_nsxt_alb_edgegateway_service_engine_group
  • vcd_org_vdc
  • vcd_org_user
  • vcd_external_network
• Resource and data source vcd_nsxt_network_dhcp support Isolated networks, different DHCP modes
  ('EDGE', 'NETWORK', 'RELAY') and lease time (#929)
• Add the new attributes vapp_template_id, boot_image_id to the resources vcd_vapp_vm and vcd_vm to be able
  to use unique URNs to reference vApp Templates and Media items through data sources, to build strong dependencies
  in Terraform configuration (#931)
• Data source vcd_nsxt_edge_cluster supports NSX-T Edge Cluster filtering by vdc_id, vdc_group_id,
  and provider_vdc_id (#921)

BUG FIXES

• Fix bug where VM was power cycled multiple times during creation (#901)
• Fix bug where storage_profile is ignored for empty (non template) VM (#901)
• resource/vcd_nsxt_alb_edgegateway_service_engine_group field reserved_virtual_services accepts
  "0" as value (#923)
• Fix a bug in resource/vcd_vapp that would prevent to Power off vApp when previous state was
  power_on=true (#932)

DEPRECATIONS

• Deprecate vcd_external_network in favor of vcd_external_network_v2 (#903)
• Deprecate default_vm_sizing_policy_id field in vcd_org_vdc resource and data source. This field is misleading as it
  can contain not only VM Sizing Policies but also VM Placement Policies or vGPU Policies.
  Its replacement is the default_compute_policy_id attribute (#904)
• Deprecate attribute metadata in favor of metadata_entry in the following data sources:
  vcd_catalog, vcd_catalog_media, vcd_catalog_vapp_template, vcd_independent_disk, vcd_network_direct,
  vcd_network_isolated, vcd_network_isolated_v2, vcd_network_routed, vcd_network_routed_v2, vcd_org,
  vcd_org_vdc, vcd_provider_vdc, vcd_storage_profile, vcd_vapp, vcd_vapp_vm (#917)
• Deprecate attribute metadata in favor of metadata_entry in the following resources:
  vcd_catalog, vcd_catalog_media, vcd_catalog_vapp_template, vcd_independent_disk, vcd_network_direct,
  vcd_network_isolated, vcd_network_isolated_v2, vcd_network_routed, vcd_network_routed_v2, vcd_org,
  vcd_org_vdc, vcd_vapp, vcd_vapp_vm (#917)
• Deprecate attribute catalog_item_metadata in favor of metadata_entry in the vcd_catalog_item resource
  and data source. (#917)
• Deprecate template_name in favor of vapp_template_id in vcd_vapp_vm and vcd_vm to be able to use unique URNs instead
  of catalog dependent names (#931)
• Deprecate boot_image in favor of boot_image_id in vcd_vapp_vm and vcd_vm to be able to use URNs instead
  of catalog dependent names (#931)
• Deprecate catalog_name in favor of vapp_template_id or boot_image_id, which don't require a catalog name anymore (#931)
• Data source vcd_nsxt_edge_cluster deprecates vdc field in favor of three new fields to define
  NSX-T Edge Cluster lookup scope - vdc_id, vdc_group_id, and provider_vdc_id (#921)

NOTES

• Drop support for EOL VCD 10.2.x (#903)
• Add a guide and examples on Catalog subscribing and sharing to the documentation (#916)
• All non-NSX-V resources and data sources use the new SDK signatures with Context and Diagnostics (#895)
• Refactor VM Creation code, which should result in identifiable parts creation for all types of
  VMs. Behind the scenes, there are 4 different types of VMs with respective different API calls as
  listed below (#901)
  • vcd_vapp_vm built from vApp template
  • vcd_vm built from vApp template
  • vcd_vapp_vm built without vApp template (empty VM)
  • vcd_vm built without vApp template (empty VM)
• Bump Go to 1.19 in go.mod as the minimum required version. (#902, #916)
• Code documentation formatting is adjusted using Go 1.19 (make fmt) (#902)
• Adjust GitHub actions in pipeline to use the latest code (#902)
• staticcheck switched version naming from 2021.1.2 to v0.3.3 in downloads section. This PR
  also updates the code to fetch correct staticcheck (#902)
• package io/ioutil is deprecated as of Go 1.16. staticcheck started complaining about usage of
  deprecated packages. As a result this PR switches packages to either io or os (still the same
  functions are used) (#902)
• Add a new GitHub Action to run gosec on every push and pull request (#928)
