| cleanTraffic |
Specifies whether to enable the feature of defending against IP
spoofing or MAC spoofing attacks for a VM instance. Default:
false. |

|
| deletionPolicy |
The policy used to delete VM instances. Default:
Delay. Valid values: Direct, Delay, and Never.
- Direct: If you delete a VM instance, the VM instance is
deleted at once.
- Delay: If you delete a VM instance, the VM instance is
listed on the Deleted tab of the VM instance management page
and is in Deleted state. If you set the value to Delay, you
can set the retention period of deleted VM instances. The
default retention period is 86,400 seconds. When the
retention period expires or if you expunge a deleted VM
instance, the VM instance is expunged.
- Never: If you delete a VM instance, the system does not
automatically expunge the deleted VM instance.

| instanceOffering.setNullWhenDeleting |
Specifies whether to update the Instance Offering parameter of a
VM instance to NULL after the instance offering of the VM instance
is deleted. Default: true. |

|
| kvmHiddenState |
Specifies whether to hide the KVM virtualization flag. Default:
false. If set to true, <hidden state='on'> is inserted in the
<kvm> field of the XML file defined for a newly started VM
instance. If you use NVIDA video cards for VM instances, you need to
set this parameter to true. |
false |
|
| numa |
Default: false. If set to true, you can modify the number of
vCPUs and memory size of a VM instance online. We recommend that you
do not modify the number of vCPUs and memory size of a Windows-based
VM instance in the production environment. Please excise with
caution. |
false |
|
| spiceStreamingMode |
- all: All video frames are encoded, compressed, and then
transferred. This lowers bandwidth requirements, promotes
streaming fluency, while increases the CPU pressure of thin
clients.
- filter: Incremental video frames are encoded, compressed,
and then transferred. Compared with the all mode, this mode
further lowers bandwidth requirements and promotes streaming
fluency. The CPU pressure of thin clients is relatively low.
However, Chrome flash of thin clients will cause streaking
issues.
- off: Video frames are not encoded or compressed before
transmission. This produces HD video streaming while have
highest requirements for bandwidth. The CPU pressure of thin
clients is the lowest among the three modes.

|
| soundType |
The type of voice card that is used when a VM instance is started
up. Default: HDA(ICH6). Valid values: AC97, HDA(ICH6), and

| vmDefaultCdRomNum |
The default number of virtual drives that the system creates for
a VM instance (the cdrom parameter is not specified). Default: 1.
Valid values: 1, 2, and 3. This setting does not take effect on the
VM instances whose number of virtual drives has exceeded the
threshold. |
1 |
|
| maximumCdRomNum |
The maximum of virtual drives that can be created for a VM
instance. Default: 3. Valid values: 1, 2, and 3. This setting does
not take effect on the VM instances whose number of virtual drives
has exceeded the threshold. |
3 |
|
| pciePortNums |
The number of PCIe root ports that can be configured for a x86-64
VM instance with Q35 motherboard. Default: 28. Valid values: 0 to
28. This setting predefines the number of PCIe devices that can be
hot plugged during VM startup. Modifications of the setting on a VM
instance take effect after you restart the VM instance. |
28 |
0-28 |
| multivNic.support |
Specifies whether to enable multi-vNIC configuration in the same
IP range. Default: false. This value indicates that you can
configure only one vNIC for a VM instance in the same private IP
range. If set to true, you can configure multiple vNICs for a VM
instance in the same private IP range. |
false |
|
| resourceBinding.strategy |
The VM instance or VPC vRouter sticky policy. Valid values: Hard
and Soft. Default: Hard. This value indicates that unless manually
regulated, a VM instance or VPC vRouter is limited within the scope
set by its associated resources. The value Soft indicates that a VM
instance or VPC vRouter can be started on an available host if no
associated host is available. |
Hard |
|
| resourceBinding.Scen |
The scene to which VM or VPC vRouter sticky policy applies. Valid
values: Auto and All. Default: Auto. The value Auto indicates that
unless manually regulated, a VM instance or VPC vRouter is limited
within the scope set by its associated resources, such as VM
migrating to another host to achieve high availability or upon host
entering maintenance mode. The value All indicates that a VM
instance or VPC vRouter is limited within the scope set by its
associated resources even if manually regulated. |
Auto |
|
| crash.strategy |
Specifies whether to enable error inspection for VM instances.
Default: false. If you enable error inspection, you can set the
error handling policy. Three error handling polices are available:
Preserve, Reboot, and Shutdown. If your VM instance crashes, the VM
instance is handled based on the configured policy. Note that before
you can enable error inspection, you must install GuestTools of the
latest version and make sure the agent is in Running state. |

| vm.clock.track |
- Specifies whether to sync Windows VM time with the host BIOS
time. If enabled, Windows VM time is the same as that of the

- If you specifically set time sync for a VM instance, the
global setting does not take effect on the VM instance.

|
| enable.vm.internal.ip.overwrite |
Specifies whether to allow the NIC IP configured
in the VM instance to overwrite the NIC IP record existing on the

- To use this feature, install GuestTools for VM instances
in advance.
- The NIC IP configured in the VM instance overwrites the
IP record on the Cloud after you set this setting to

changes.
- If you want to make the NIC IP configured in the VM
instance overwrite the IP record on the Cloud, we
recommend that you set this setting to true before you
enter the VM instance and configure the IP.
