HostDiskPartitionSpec
This data object type describes the disk partition table specification used to configure the partitions on a disk.
This data object represents the fundamental data needed to specify a partition table.

Partition format type on the disk.
This data object type describes dimensions using the cylinder, head, sector (CHS) coordinate system.
This coordinate system is generally needed for partitioning for legacy reasons. When defining partitions, many partitioning utilities do not function correctly when certain CHS constraints are not met.
Disk dimensions expressed as a total number of sectors.
For sector size, see the sectorSize field.
