Description

https://github.com/vmware/pyvmomi-community-samples/blob/master/samples/create_random_marvel_vms.py#L121

Samples should use pythonic variable names, method names, and package names. That means using name_underscore and not nameCamelCase in many situations. There needs to be some patches that go out and find and scrub these non-pythonic (Java-like) names.

Research direction
Examine the sample files in the repository, especially the one linked (samples/create random marvel vms.py). Identify all method and variable names using camelCase and rename them to snake case following PEP 8. Ensure consistency across all samples. This is well suited for a first time contributor as it requires no deep understanding of pyVmomi, only Python coding standards.
