vmware/esxi-hcl-validated

Set the ESXi software install acceptance level.

Once the VMware ESXi Compatibility Checker has been completed, this Param will contain the results of the check. If the machine is marked compatible by the VMware tools, then the value will be set to true otherwise, it's false

If true then it is implied the machine is compliant with the HCL.

Note that both this Param and vmware/esxi-hcl-completed should be set to true to ensure that the tooling ran, and the machine passed validation.

However, in DevTest situations, you may set the value to true to allow for subsequent installers to complete successfully, regardless of the actual HCL compatibility check results.
