• linked (bool) - By default Packer creates a 'full' clone of the virtual machine specified in source_path. The resultant virtual machine is fully independant from the parent it was cloned from.

• remote_type (string) - The type of remote machine that will be used to build this VM rather than a local desktop product. The only value accepted for this currently is esx5. If this is not set, a desktop product will be used. By default, this is not set.

• vm_name (string) - This is the name of the VMX file for the new virtual machine, without the file extension. By default this is packer-BUILDNAME, where "BUILDNAME" is the name of the build.
