Name	Type	Description
attributes	xsd:byte	The attributes on the partition.
endSector	xsd:long	The end sector.
guid*	xsd:string	Globally Unique Identifier of the partition, as defined by the GUID Partition Table (GPT) format. This is available only for GPT formatted disks. *Since* vSphere API 5.0
logical	xsd:boolean	The flag to indicate whether or not the partition is logical. If true, the partition number should be greater than 4.
partition	xsd:int	The partition number. Must be a positive integer.
partitionAlignment*	xsd:long	Partition alignment in bytes. If unset, partition alignment value is unknown. *Since* vSphere API 5.0
startSector	xsd:long	The start sector.
type	xsd:string	Type of data in the partition. If it is a well-known partition type, it will be one of the defined types. If it is not, then it will be reported as a hexadecimal number. For example, "none", "vmfs", "linux", and "0x20" are all valid values. See HostDiskPartitionInfoType
