Extends: CnsBackingObjectDetails
Since: vSAN API vSAN 6.7U3

Data Object Description

Details for a block type backing for container volume.
This class will be used as input at the time of volume creation and will also be returned as part of query result to give more information about a container volume.
Note: In future, for block volumes the disk format, like thin, lazy-zeroed- thick, eager-zeroed-thick, will be made a part of storage policy. Until then, for block volumes, only the thin type of provisioning will be supported.
