#### FILL IN VALUES ABOVE. REPEAT ALL ENTRIES TO ADD ANOTHER VC-HOSTS SET. 
#### WORKS ON UPTO ABOUT 30HOSTS. MORE THAN THAT REQUIRES BEEFIER HARDWARE FOR THE FA OR 
#### DISTRIBUTION OF GENERATED .CONF FILES ACROSS FA's 
#### (THOUGH FA HOSTNAME'S IN .CONF FILES WILL NEED TO BE UPDATED
#### AND INPUT.CONF FILES WILL NEED TO BE UPDATED TOO AS PER GUIDELINES IN DOCS).

# EXAMPLE:
#vcuser=Administrator
#vcpwd=abc123
#vc=10.160.14.241
#hostuser=root
#hostpwd=abc123
#host_csv=10.160.14.51,10.160.14.52,10.160.14.53,10.160.14.54,10.160.14.56
#perfInstanceData=OFF   (or ON)

#vcuser=Administrator
#vcpwd=abc123
#vc=10.160.114.241
#hostuser=root
#hostpwd=abc123
#host_csv=*
#perfInstanceData=OFF   (or ON)

#USE WILDCARD TO RETRIEVE ALL MANAGED HOSTS

#NOTE: UNMANAGED HOSTS MUST BE COMPILED MANUALLY AFTER THE ENGINEBUILDER IS RUN. CREATE THE UNMANAGED HOSTS' ENGINE.CONF FILES AS PER DOCS AND UPDATE INPUTS.CONF
