Data Object Description

The VirtualSriovEthernetCard data object defines the properties of a SR-IOV enabled Ethernet card attached to a virtual machine.

Properties

Name Type Description
allowGuestOSMtuChange*xsd:boolean

Indicates whether MTU can be changed from guest OS.
dvxBackingInfo*VirtualPCIPassthroughDvxBackingInfo

Information about DVX backing of this VirtualSriovEthernetCard.

This field is set if and only if this VirtualSriovEthernetCard is a DVX device.

Since 8.0.0.1
sriovBacking*VirtualSriovEthernetCardSriovBackingInfo

Information about SR-IOV passthrough backing of this VirtualSriovEthernetCard.

During an edit operation, if this value is unset, no changes to the SR-IOV backing will be made. During an add operation, if this is unset, an automatic physical function assignment scheme as described above will be used. This field is ignored and must be unset if this VirtualSriovEthernetCard is a DVX device, in which case the dvxBackingInfo field is set. In other words, sriovBacking and dvxBackingInfo cannot both be set at any time.
