Description

This command edits the virtual machine disk mapping object.

To edit a virtual disk or CDROM mapped to a virtual machine, remove it using the delete VmDiskMapping command, then use the create VmDiskMapping command again to remap it to a virtual machine with any changed settings.

Although none of the options are mandatory, you must supply at least one option.

Options

The following table shows the available options for this command.

Option	Description

`description=value`	Optional description for the disk mapping object.
{ `id=id` \| `name=name` }	The instance of the object using either the `id` or `name` option, for example `name=MyDiskMap`.
