configuration_parameters does not apply "migrate.encryptionMode" = "required"

[jlouisfoster]

Summary

When attempting to add "migrate.encryptionMode" = "required" via configuration_parameters option in .pkr.hcl - this setting does not get added to the .vmx file; thus the change does not occur on the template/vm.

Reproduction Steps

Update configuration_parameters with "migrate.encryptionMode" = "required" and validate if Encrypted vMotion is set to required.

Plugin and Packer version

Packer v1.10.2

    "log.keepOld" = "15"
    "migrate.encryptionMode" = "required"

I believe that this was meant for hashicorp/packer-plugin-vsphere for VMware vSphere where the configuration_parameters is an option.

I'll transfer the issue.

Try "migrateEncryption" = "required".
