VmfsDatastoreMultipleExtentOption
Datastore addition policy to use multiple extents on the disk for a VMFS datastore.
Multiple extents implies that more than one disk partition will be created on the disk for creating or increasing the capacity of a VMFS datastore. Multiple extents are needed when unpartitioned space is fragmented in the existing partition layout of the disk.
