<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Disk</span></tt> class provides methods for configuring the virtual disks of a

virtual machine. A virtual disk has a backing such as a VMDK file. The

|
|
backing has an independent lifecycle from the virtual machine when it is
|
||
|
|
detached from the virtual machine. The <a class="reference internal" href="#com.vmware.vcenter.vm.hardware_client.Disk.create" title="com.vmware.vcenter.vm.hardware_client.Disk.create"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">Disk.create()</span></tt></a> method provides
|

|

the ability to create a new virtual disk. When creating a virtual disk, a
|
||
|
|
new VMDK file may be created or an existing VMDK file may used as a
|
||
|
|
backing. Once a VMDK file is associated with a virtual machine, its
|
||
|
|
lifecycle will be bound to the virtual machine. In other words, it will be
|
||
|
|
deleted when the virtual machine is deleted. The <a class="reference internal" href="#com.vmware.vcenter.vm.hardware_client.Disk.delete" title="com.vmware.vcenter.vm.hardware_client.Disk.delete"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">Disk.delete()</span></tt></a> method

virtual disk. Once detached, the VMDK file will not be destroyed when the

virtual machine to which it was associated is deleted.</p>
