Since: vSphere API Release 5.0

Data Object Description

Describes a single storage initial placement action for placing a virtual machine or a set of virtual disks on a datastore.

Properties

Name	Type	Description
destination	ManagedObjectReference to a Datastore	Target datastore.
ioLatencyBefore*	xsd:float	Deprecated. As of vSphere8.0 U3, and there is no replacement for it. Current I/O latency on the target datastore. Unit: millisecond. If not set, the value is not available.
relocateSpec	VirtualMachineRelocateSpec	Specification for placing a virtual machine or a set of virtual disks to a datastore.
spaceDemandAfter*	xsd:float	Space demand on the target datastore after placing the virtual disk. Unit: percentage. For example, if set to 70.0, space demand is 70%. This value include the space demanded by thin provisioned VMs. Hence, it may be higher than 100%. If not set, the value is not available. *Since* vSphere API Release 6.0
spaceDemandBefore*	xsd:float	Current space demand on the target datastore. Unit: percentage. For example, if set to 70.0, space demand is 70%. This value include the space demanded by thin provisioned VMs. Hence, it may be higher than 100%. If not set, the value is not available. *Since* vSphere API Release 6.0
spaceUtilAfter*	xsd:float	Space utilization on the target datastore after placing the virtual disk. Unit: percentage. For example, if set to 70.0, space utilization is 70%. If not set, the value is not available.
spaceUtilBefore*	xsd:float	Current space utilization on the target datastore. Unit: percentage. For example, if set to 70.0, space utilization is 70%. If not set, the value is not available.
vm*	ManagedObjectReference to a VirtualMachine	Virtual machine reference. It is possible that the VM has not been created, in which case, this property is left unset.
