        If `size` specified then unit must be specified. There is no space allowed in between size number and unit.
        Only first occurrence in disk element will be considered, even if there are multiple size* parameters available.
        - `type` (string): Valid values are:
        - `thin` thin disk
        - `eagerzeroedthick` eagerzeroedthick disk
        - `thick` thick disk
        Default: `thick` thick disk, no eagerzero.
        - `datastore` (string): Name of datastore or datastore cluster to be used for the disk.
        - `autoselect_datastore` (bool): Select the less used datastore. Specify only if `datastore` is not specified.
        - `scsi_controller` (integer): SCSI controller number. Valid value range from 0 to 3.
        Only 4 SCSI controllers are allowed per VM.
        Care should be taken while specifying `scsi_controller` is 0 and `unit_number` as 0 as this disk may contain OS.
        - `unit_number` (integer): Disk Unit Number. Valid value range from 0 to 15. Only 15 disks are allowed per SCSI Controller.
        - `scsi_type` (string): Type of SCSI controller. This value is required only for the first occurrence of SCSI Controller.
        This value is ignored, if SCSI Controller is already present or `state` is `absent`.
        Valid values are `buslogic`, `lsilogic`, `lsilogicsas` and `paravirtual`.
        `paravirtual` is default value for this parameter.
        - `state` (string): State of disk. This is either "absent" or "present".
        If `state` is set to `absent`, disk will be removed permanently from virtual machine configuration and from VMware storage.
        If `state` is set to `present`, disk will be added if not present at given SCSI Controller and Unit Number.
        If `state` is set to `present` and disk exists with different size, disk size is increased.

        A list of network adapters.

        If there are multiple network adapters with the same `device_type`, you should set `label` or `mac` to match one of them, or will apply changes on all network adapters with the `device_type` specified.
        `mac`, `label`, `device_type` is the order of precedence from greatest to least if all set.
        Valid attributes are:
        - `mac` (string): MAC address of the existing network adapter to be reconfigured or removed.
        - `label` (string): Label of the existing network adapter to be reconfigured or removed, e.g., "Network adapter 1".
        - `device_type` (string): Valid virtual network device types are: `e1000`, `e1000e`, `pcnet32`, `vmxnet2`, `vmxnet3` (default), `sriov`. Used to add new network adapter, reconfigure or remove the existing network adapter with this type. If `mac` and `label` not specified or not find network adapter by `mac` or `label` will use this parameter.
        - `name` (string): Name of the portgroup or distributed virtual portgroup for this interface. When specifying distributed virtual portgroup make sure given `esxi_hostname` or `cluster` is associated with it.
        - `vlan` (integer): VLAN number for this interface.
        - `dvswitch_name` (string): Name of the distributed vSwitch. This value is required if multiple distributed portgroups exists with the same name.
        - `state` (string): State of the network adapter.
        If set to `present`, then will do reconfiguration for the specified network adapter.
        If set to `new`, then will add the specified network adapter.
        If set to `absent`, then will remove this network adapter.
        - `manual_mac` (string): Manual specified MAC address of the network adapter when creating, or reconfiguring. If not specified when creating new network adapter, mac address will be generated automatically. When reconfigure MAC address, VM should be in powered off state.
        - `connected` (bool): Indicates that virtual network adapter connects to the associated virtual machine.
