MoRefVirtualMachine

vm

Optional

Reference to an instance of the VirtualMachine managed object.

VirtualMachineRelocateSpec

relocateSpec

Required

Specification for moving or copying a virtual machine to a different datastore or host.

MoRefDatastore

destination

Required

Reference to an instance of the Datastore managed object.

number As float As float

spaceUtilBefore

Optional

Current space utilization on the target datastore.

Unit: percentage. For example, if set to 70.0, space utilization is 70%. If not set, the value is not available.

number As float As float

spaceDemandBefore

Optional

Current space demand on the target datastore.

Unit: percentage. For example, if set to 70.0, space demand is 70%. This value include the space demanded by thin provisioned VMs. Hence, it may be higher than 100%. If not set, the value is not available.

number As float As float

spaceUtilAfter

Optional

Space utilization on the target datastore after placing the virtual disk.

Unit: percentage. For example, if set to 70.0, space utilization is 70%. If not set, the value is not available.

number As float As float

spaceDemandAfter

Optional

Space demand on the target datastore after placing the virtual disk.

Unit: percentage. For example, if set to 70.0, space demand is 70%. This value include the space demanded by thin provisioned VMs. Hence, it may be higher than 100%. If not set, the value is not available.

number As float As float

ioLatencyBefore

Optional

Deprecated as of vSphere8.0 U3, and there is no replacement for it.

Current I/O latency on the target datastore.

Unit: millisecond. If not set, the value is not available.
