esxi/base-bootcfg-override

Set the ESXi software install acceptance level.

Defines an alternate system Template to use for an ESXi install that is different from the default system generated boot.cfg. By default the system will use the esxi-base-boot.cfg.tmpl or esxi8-base-boot.cfg.tmpl to dynamically generate the HTTP/s requested boot.cfg.

Specifying an alternate here allows the operator to completely override the default Template. Note that it is still possible to use the standard Param definitions found in the system default Templates to create an alternative that is also dynamically expandable at request time.

The base boot.cfg Template(s) must be specified in the ESXi BootEnv Templates directives to be used. The systems default esxi-install and esxi8-install BootEnvs both support these Template expansion constructs.
