Install terraform 2. Copy the vmware/vsphere provider at the default location for an implied filesystem_mirror (`%APPDATA%/terraform.d/plugins`) 3. terraform init ### Additional Context Nothing special. No customization. Brand new install. Terrafom is installed in "C:\Program Files\HarshiCorp\Terraform". The vmware/vsphere provider was copied to the implied filesystem_mirror location as packed and unpacked. The terraform script is: ``` terraform { required_providers { vsphere = { source = "vmware/vsphere" } } } provider "vsphere" { vsphere_server = olso.aca.fr } ``` ### References _No response_ ### Generative AI / LLM assisted development? _No response_
