    • When we create vm’s along with vm a disk will be created with operating system in it such disks are called as os disk
    • In addition to the os disk we can also attach data disks to increase storage capacity (optional)
    • OS disk or Data disk can be attached to only one vm at any given moment
    • In some cases we would like to have shared storage across vm’s
