Elements

Element	Type	Required	Modifiable	Since	Deprecated	Description

BusNumber	int	Yes	always	32.0		The number of the SCSI or IDE controller itself.
Disk	ReferenceType	No	always	32.0		Specifies reference to a named disk.
DiskId	string	No	always	32.0		Specifies a unique identifier for this disk in the scope of the corresponding VM. This element is optional when creating a VM, but if it is provided it should be unique. This element is mandatory when updating an existing disk.
IopsAllocation	IopsResourceType	No	always	37.0		Specifies the IOPS for the disk.
SizeMb	long	Yes	always	32.0		The size of the disk in MB.
StorageProfile	ReferenceType	No	always	32.0		Specifies reference to a storage profile to be associated with the disk.
ThinProvisioned	boolean	No	always	32.0		Specifies whether the disk storage is pre-allocated or allocated on demand.
UnitNumber	int	Yes	always	32.0		The device number on the SCSI or IDE controller of the disk.
VCloudExtension	VCloudExtensionType	No	always	32.0		An optional extension element that can contain an arbitrary number of elements and attributes. Not related to extension services.
VirtualQuantity	long	No	none	32.0		The actual size of the disk.
VirtualQuantityUnit	string	No	none	32.0		The units in which VirtualQuantity is measured.
encrypted	boolean	No	none	34.0		True if the disk is encrypted. This is a read-only value.
overrideVmDefault	boolean	No	always	32.0		Specifies that the disk storage profile overrides the VM's default storage profile.
resizable	boolean	No	none	34.0		True if the disk can be grown. This is a read-only value.
shareable	boolean	No	none	35.0	36.0	True if the disk is shareable. This is a read-only value. This attribute is deprecated; use sharingType instead.
sharingType	string	No	none	36.0		Sharing type of the disk. This attribute is immutable. This attribute can only have values defined by DiskSharingType.
