Shawn Hartsock 15f7be9a52 pyVmomi reStructured Text Documentation
This external documentation for pyVmomi was generated using Googly Docs
(aka Google Standard Documentation) which renders very cleanly in
GitHub. Internal documentation for a class should be done in Sphinx
format because tools like pyCharm and Eclipse can use that documentation
as a hint for code completion.

Note: External docs as Googly Docs, internal docs as Sphinx.

Closes bug#15

vim.host.ScsiLun.DurableName

This data object type represents an SMI-S "Correlatable and Durable Name" which is an identifier for a logical unit number (LUN) that is generated using a common algorithm. The algorithm divides the identifier into multiple namespaces where each namespace uses a different set of properties of the LUN to generate the identifier. The namespace itself is encoded in the identifier.

extends

vmodl.DynamicData

Attributes:

namespace (str):

The string describing the namespace used for the durable name.

namespaceId (int):

The byte used by the ESX Server product to represent the namespace.

data (int, optional):

The variable length byte array containing the namespace-specific data. For a SCSI-3 compliant device this field is the descriptor header along with the payload for data obtained from page 83h, and is the payload for data obtained from page 80h of the Vital Product Data (VPD).
