VirtualMachineVirtualDeviceGroups

VirtualMachineVirtualDeviceGroups
VirtualMachineVirtualDeviceGroups

The VirtualDeviceGroups data object type contains information about the backing that maps the virtual device onto a physical device for a Vendor Device Group device.

Vendor Device Groups allow third-parties to define collections of devices that must be allocated to a virtual machine as a unit. Typically, this is because the set of devices are related in a some way, e.g. a physical link connects the devices.
