Description

When I called the script to create the virtual machine, the virtual machine started normally, but the network card was not configured successfully, but the script did not report an error. How can I check if the IP is configured successfully when invoking the script that configured the network card

Research direction
The issue asks how to verify network card IP configuration after a pyvmomi script. To answer, investigate pyvmomi methods for retrieving guest network info, such as using the 'guest' property of a VirtualMachine object. Check the CustomizationSpec usage in community samples to ensure proper configuration. Review vSphere API documentation for guest operations.
