DownloadDescriptionTree(downloadDescriptionTree)
Download Assignable Hardware description tree. The size of the downloaded description tree is dependent on the type and number of assignable devices found on the host. As a rough estimate, each device might require approximate 256 bytes to represent. The number of assignable devices on a host may vary from none to 60 or more. A host with 3 SRIOV type devices consisting of a PF and 16 VFs would have a total of 51 devices and the description tree would be approximately 51 * 256 bytes = 13,056 bytes.- Required Privileges
