Description

I deployed VM by modifying deploy_ova.py and passed required configuration. I added Key:value under propertyMapping, but when VM is successfully deployed on ESXi host, i dont see any key:value being set on the VM, for e.g. root password, hostName etc.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Check the propertyMapping structure in deploy ova.py and ensure it matches the expected format for the OVF parameters. Also verify that the guest customization settings are applied correctly.
