The user has the option of setting the disk mode when adding a disk during reconfigure, the possible options provided by VMware are: append, independent_nonpersistent, independent_persistent, nonpersistent, persistent, undoable [ref]
However not all of these options are valid for all backing type. Specifically the backing type that we use for new disks (
VirtualDiskFlatVer2Backing
) only supportspersistent
,independnet_persistent
, andindependent_nonpersistent
[ref]This will validate before submitting the
ReconfigVM_Task
that a supported diskMode was selected by the user.This should be followed up by a UI change to only display valid options to the user, currently it is possible for the user to select persistent, nonpersistent, independent_persistent, and independent_nonpersistent.
