+The following variable is used to define the amount of SR-IOV Logical Ports used for VNIC failover of the 1st network adapter for the VMs. By default the VMs will use 1, which defines `no VNIC failover`. Any setting higher then 1 creates additional LPs and configures them in a VNIC failover setup. `Be aware of the fact, that RHCOS and some Linux releases might not handle VNIC failover with more then 2 SR-IOV Logical Ports properly. The recommended value is 2 for VNIC failover.`
+Valid options are: Any number supported for VNIC failover adapters

+The following variable is used to define the capacity of SR-IOV Logical Ports of the 1st network adapter for the VMs. By default the VMs will use 2%.
