useSeparateDatastoresReplicaAndOSDisks | xsd:boolean |
Whether to use separate datastores for replica and OS disks. This
option enables control over the placement of the replica that View
Composer and Instant clone engine sourced desktops use as their base
image. It is recommended that a high performance datastore be chosen
for these images. Depending on your hardware configuration, storing
replicas on a separate datastore might create a single point of
failure. Note(s) :-
- Fast NFS Clones (VAAI) will be unavailable if the Replica disks are
stored separately from the OS disks.
- Datastores with file system type VVOL will also be unavailable if
the Replica disks are stored separately from the OS disks.
- This setting is applicable to both View Composer and Instant clone
engine sourced desktops.
-
This property has a default value of
false.
|
replicaDiskDatastore | DatastoreId |
Datastore to store replica disks for View Composer and Instant clone
engine sourced machines. Note(s) :-
- For Instant clone desktops, this can be modified only if there are
no current operations (
operation is NONE).
|
useNativeSnapshots | xsd:boolean |
Native NFS Snapshots (VAAI - vStorage API for Array Integration) is a
hardware feature of certain storage arrays. It uses native snapshotting
technology to provide linked clone functionality. Only choose this
option if you have appropriate hardware devices. All the selected OS
disk datastores should support this. Note(s) :-
- For Instant clone desktops, this setting can only be set to false.
-
This property has a default value of
false.
