The task outputs a list of virtual disk files on the virtual server:
• If the properties hyperv.vhdListOutputFileNameRemote and hyperv.vhdListOutputFileNameLocal
are specified, the task outputs a CSV file that lists the paths of the virtual disk files allocated to the
virtual server that is to be deleted from the Hyper-V server. The task then transfers the CSV file to
the local PC and deletes the CSV file from the remote PC. If differential virtual disks are allocated
to the virtual server, the virtual disks that are used as the parents of those differential virtual disks
are not included in the CSV file.
• If only the property hyperv.vhdListOutputFileNameRemote is specified, the task outputs a CSV file
that lists the paths of the virtual disk files, but does not transfer the CSV file to the local PC.
• The following items are output to the file in CSV (comma-separated value) format:
Header name
