Data Object Properties

Properties

Name Type Description
useSeparateDatastoresReplicaAndOSDisksxsd:boolean

Whether to use separate datastores for replica and OS disks. This option enables control over the placement of the replica that linked clones use as their base image. It is recommended that a high performance datastore be chosen for these images. Depending on your hardware configuration, storing replicas on a separate datastore might create a single point of failure. Note - Fast NFS Clones (VAAI) will be unavailable if the Replica disks are stored separately from the OS disks. Datastores with file system type VVOL will also be unavailable if the Replica disks are stored separately from the OS disks.
  • This property has a default value of false.
replicaDiskDatastoreDatastoreId

Datastore to store replica disks for View Composer and Instant clone engine RDS Servers. Note(s) :-
  • For Instant clone farms, this can be modified only if there are no current operations ( operation is NONE).

useNativeSnapshotsxsd:boolean

Native NFS Snapshots (VAAI - vStorage API for Array Integration) is a hardware feature of certain storage arrays. It uses native snapshotting technology to provide linked clone functionality. Only choose this option if you have appropriate hardware devices. All the selected OS disk datastores should support this.
  • This property has a default value of false.
