Mappings APIs
The Mappings service can be used to manage the relationship between containerized objects and vTContainer instances. A containerized object is any data object that is associated with a vTContainer instance, and can be of any resource type. Each vTContainer instance can hold any number of containerized objects, but there is a service defined limit to the number of vTContainer instances that can be associated with a single containerized object.
When a containerized object is deleted, its mappings to vTContainer instances are automatically removed. However, a vTContainer instance cannot be deleted until all mappings to it have been removed.
