diskMode
Required

The ChoiceOption data object type defines a set of supported string values, a localizable description for each value, and the default value.

split
Required

The BoolOption data object type describes if an option is supported ("true") and if the option is set to "true" or "false" by default.

writeThrough
Required

The BoolOption data object type describes if an option is supported ("true") and if the option is set to "true" or "false" by default.

boolean
growable
Required

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.

boolean
hotGrowable
Required

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.

boolean
uuid
Required

Flag to indicate whether this backing supports disk UUID property.
