Returns an authorization error if you do not have all of the privileges described as follows:
- The resource

The parameter must be an identifier for the resource type: VirtualMachine.
Identifier of the data set to be queried.
The parameter must be an identifier for the resource type: com.vmware.vcenter.vm.DataSet.
Details about the data set.

}The name of the data set.
This property was added in vSphere API 8.0.0.0.
A description of how the data set is used by its creator.
This property was added in vSphere API 8.0.0.0.
Host access control.
Controls access to the data set by the Vcenter Vm DataSets Entries operations.
For more information see: Vcenter Vm DataSets Access.
This property was added in vSphere API 8.0.0.0.
Guest access control.
Controls access to the data set from in-guest APIs.
For more information see: Vcenter Vm DataSets Access.
This property was added in vSphere API 8.0.0.0.
The total size in bytes of the Entry data in use by this data set.
This property was added in vSphere API 8.0.0.0.
If set, the data set is considered a property of the virtual machine, and is not included in a snapshot operation or when the virtual machine is cloned. When a virtual machine is reverted to a snapshot, any data set with {@link #omitFromSnapshotAndClone) {@term set} will be destroyed. Any data set with {@link #omitFromSnapshotAndClone} {@term unset} will be restored to the state when the snapshot was created.
This property was added in vSphere API 8.0.0.0.

}Stack of one or more localizable messages for human error consumers.
The message at the top of the stack (first in the list) describes the error from the perspective of the operation the client invoked.
Each subsequent message in the stack describes the "cause" of the prior message.
Data to facilitate clients responding to the operation reporting a standard error to indicating that it was unable to complete successfully.
Operations may provide data that clients can use when responding to errors. Since the data that clients need may be specific to the context of the operation reporting the error, different operations that report the same error may provide different data in the error. The documentation for each each operation will describe what, if any, data it provides for each error it reports.
The Vapi Std Errors ArgumentLocations, Vapi Std Errors FileLocations, and Vapi Std Errors TransientIndication schemas are intended as possible values for this property. Vapi Std DynamicID may also be useful as a value for this property (although that is not its primary purpose). Some resources may provide their own specific schemas for use as the value of this property when reporting errors from their operations.
Some operations will not set this property when reporting errors.
Discriminator field to help API consumers identify the structure type.
For more information see: Vapi Std Errors Error Type.
This property was added in vSphere API 6.7.2.
Can be missing or null for compatibility with preceding implementations.
