Property Description
VirtualMachine.DiskN.Letter
Species the drive leer or mount point of a
machine’s disk N. The default is C. For example, to
specify the leer D for Disk 1, dene the custom
property as VirtualMachine.Disk1.Letter and
enter the value D. Disk numbering must be
sequential. When used in conjunction with a guest
agent, this value species the drive leer or mount
point under which an additional disk N is mounted
by the guest agent in the guest operating system.
VirtualMachine.DiskN.Size
Denes the size in GB of disk N. For example, to give
a size of 150 GB to a disk G, dene the custom
property VirtualMachine.Disk0.Size and enter a
value of 150. Disk numbering must be sequential. By
default a machine has one disk referred to by
VirtualMachine.Disk0.Size, where size is
specied by the storage value on the blueprint from
which the machine is provisioned. The storage value
on the blueprint user interface overwrites the value
in the VirtualMachine.Disk0.Size property. The
VirtualMachine.Disk0.Size property is not
available as a custom property because of its
relationship with the storage option on the blueprint.
More disks can be added by specifying
VirtualMachine.Disk1.Size,
VirtualMachine.Disk2.Size and so on.
VirtualMachine.Admin.TotalDiskUsage always
represents the total of the .DiskN.Size properties
plus the VMware.Memory.Reservation size
allocation.
VirtualMachine.DiskN.IsFixed
Disables the editing of a specic disk when
reconguring a machine. Set to True to disable
display of the edit capacity option for a specic
volume. The True value is case-sensitive. The N value
is the 0-based index of the disk.
Alternatively, you can set the
VirtualMachine.DiskN.IsFixed custom property
to True in the VirtualMachineProperties table in the
database or use the Repository API to specify a URI
value such
as .../Repository/Data/ManagementModelEntit
ies.svc/VirtualMachines(guid'60D93A8A-
F541-4CE0-
A6C6-78973AC0F1D2')/VirtualMachineProperti
es.
VirtualMachine.DiskN.Label
Species the label for a machine’s disk N. The disk
label maximum is 32 characters. Disk numbering
must be sequential. When used with a guest agent,
species the label of a machine's disk N inside the
guest operating system.
VirtualMachine.DiskN.Active
Set to True (default) to specify that the machine's
disk N is active. Set to False to specify that the
machine's disk N is not active.
VirtualMachine.DiskN.FS
Species the le system of the machine’s disk N. The
options are NTFS (default), FAT and FAT32.
VirtualMachine.DiskN.Percent
Species the percentage of the disk N to be formaed
by a guest agent for the machine’s use. That machine
cannot use the remaining portion of the disk.
