The ResourcePool.SharesInfo.Level enumerated type defines the possible values for the allocation level.
LOW : For CPU: Shares = 500 * number of virtual CPUs. For Memory: Shares = 5 * virtual machine memory size in MB.
NORMAL : For CPU: Shares = 1000 * number of virtual CPUs. For Memory: Shares = 10 * virtual machine memory size in MB.
HIGH : For CPU: Shares = 2000 * number of virtual CPUs. For Memory: Shares = 20 * virtual machine memory size in MB.
CUSTOM : If set, in case there is resource contention the server uses the shares value to determine the resource allocation.

When ResourcePool.SharesInfo.level is set to CUSTOM, it is the number of shares allocated. Otherwise, this value is ignored. There is no unit for this value. It is a relative measure based on the settings for other resource pools.

This field is optional and it is only relevant when the value of ResourcePool.SharesInfo.level is CUSTOM.
