Data Object Description

Specification of cloning a virtual storage object.

Name	Type	Description
keepAfterDeleteVm*	xsd:boolean	Choice of the deletion behavior of this virtual storage object. If not set, the default value is false. *Since* vSphere API 6.7
metadata*	KeyValue[]	The metadata KV pairs that are supposed to be updated on the destination virtual storage object. The clone task is atomic by design. That being said, failing to update the specified metadata pairs leads to the failure of the clone task. If unset, no metadata will be updated. An empty string value is indicative of a vcenter tag. *Since* vSphere API 6.7.2
name	xsd:string	Descriptive name of the cloned virtual storage object.
