Virtual Disk Manager Eager Zero Virtual Disk Task
Explicitly zero out unaccessed parts zeroedthick disk.
Effectively a no-op if the disk is already eagerZeroedThick. Unlike zeroFillVirtualDisk, which wipes the entire disk, this operation only affects previously unaccessed parts of the disk.
The datacenter parameter may be omitted if a URL is used to name the disk.
Requires Datastore.FileManagement privilege on the datastore where the virtual disk resides.
Required privileges: System.View
