VirtualDiskSeSparseBackingOption
Backing options for virtual disks that use the space efficient sparse format.
Space for Flex-SE disks is allocated on demand and optimizations are applied to achieve additional space savings.

The ChoiceOption data object type defines a set of supported string values, a localizable description for each value, and the default value.
The BoolOption data object type describes if an option is supported ("true") and if the option is set to "true" or "false" by default.
Indicates whether or not this disk backing can be extended to larger sizes through a reconfigure operation.
If set to true, reconfiguring this virtual disk with a capacityInKB value greater than its current value will grow the disk to the newly specified size.
Indicates whether or not this disk backing can be extended to larger sizes through a reconfigure operation while the virtual machine is powered on.
If set to true, reconfiguring this virtual disk with a capacityInKB value greater than its current value will grow the disk to the newly specified size while the virtual machine is powered on.
Flag to indicate whether this backing supports disk UUID property.
Delta disk formats supported for each datastore type.
