Property Description
VirtualMachine.DiskN.Letter
Specifies the drive letter or mount point of a machine’s disk N. The
default is C. For example, to specify the letter D for Disk 1, define 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 specifies the drive letter or
mount point under which an additional disk N is mounted by the guest
agent in the guest operating system.
VirtualMachine.DiskN.IsFixed
Disables the editing of a specific disk when reconfiguring a machine.
Set to True to disable display of the edit capacity option for a specific
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/ManagementModelEntities.svc/Virtua
lMachines(guid'60D93A8A-F541-4CE0-
A6C6-78973AC0F1D2')/VirtualMachineProperties.
VirtualMachine.DiskN.Label
Specifies 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, specifies 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
For use with Windows guest agent (gugent). Specifies the file system
of the machine’s disk N. The options are NTFS (default), FAT and
FAT32. For example usage, see the 10_setupdisks.bat Windows

VirtualMachine.DiskN.FileSystem
For use with Linux guest agent (gugent). Specifies the file system of
the machine’s disk N. The options are ext3 and ext4. The xfs value is
