DatastoreSummary

datastore

Required

Summary information about the datastore.

The status fields and managed object reference is not set when an object of this type is created. These fields and references are typically set later when these objects are associated with a host.

DatastoreCapability

capability

Required

Information about the capabilities of this datastore.

integer As int64 As int64

maxFileSize

Required

The maximum size of a file that can reside on this datastore.

integer As int64 As int64

maxVirtualDiskCapacity

Optional

The maximum capacity of a virtual disk which can be created on this volume

integer As int64 As int64

maxPhysicalRDMFileSize

Optional

Maximum raw device mapping size (physical compatibility)

integer As int64 As int64

maxVirtualRDMFileSize

Optional

Maximum raw device mapping size (virtual compatibility)

string

mode

Required

Access mode for this datastore.

This is either readOnly or readWrite. A virtual disk needs to be stored on readWrite datastore. ISOs can be read from a readOnly datastore.
