Description
Starting with the vSphere 6.7 API, there is an option to upgrade the current NfcLease from push to pull mode which allows the ESXi host to pull file(s) directly from the remote URL.
This would allow for getting rid of the download being proxied through the host that is running terraform. This would be a big win in cases where the machine running terraform has a slow connection to either the remote URL or the vSphere server.
Use Case(s)
When the ESXi host has direct connectivity to the remote URL, this option would allow for must faster file transfer speeds especially when the host running terraform has a slow connection to the remote URL, the ESXi host, or both.
Potential Terraform Provider Configuration
The following new parameters would be added to the vsphere_virtual_machine resource:
pull_upload_mode - Set to true to have the ESXi host pull directly from the remote URL(s)
pull_ssl_thumbprint - The SSL thumbprint needed to verify the remote URL
