List<JAXBElement<? extends SectionType>> sections = instantiationParamsType

.createNetworkConfigSection(networkConfigSectionType));
//create the request body (InstantiateVAppTemplateParams)

Operate the vApp
The
Vapp
class
includes
methods
that
perform
operations
on
the
vApp.
The
majority
of
these
operations
return
a
Task
object
that
tracks
the
progress
of
the
operation.
HellovCloud.java
uses
a
number
of
these
methods
to
cycle
the
vApp
through
the
following
states:
1
deploy:
deploy()
2
power
on:
powerOn()
3
suspend:
suspend()
4
power
off:
powerOff()
5
undeploy:

6
