The name of the data set. It is recommended that this value take the form “com.company.project” to avoid conflict with other uses.


boolean
omit_from_snapshot_and_clone Optional

If set, the data set is considered a property of the virtual machine, and is not included in a snapshot operation or when the virtual machine is cloned. When a virtual machine is reverted to a snapshot, any data set with {@link #omitFromSnapshotAndClone) set will be destroyed. Any data set with DataSets.CreateSpec.omit-from-snapshot-and-clone unset will be restored to the state when the snapshot was created. If unset, the data set is not copied when a virtual machine is cloned or a snapshot is taken.
