  <1> The name of the volume. This name is how it is identified by PersistentVolumeClaims or Pods.
  <2> The amount of storage allocated to this volume.
  <3> The volume type used, with `vsphereVolume` for vSphere volumes. The label is used to mount a vSphere VMDK volume into pods. The contents of a volume are preserved when it is unmounted. The volume type supports VMFS and VSAN datastore.
  <4> The existing VMDK volume to use. You must enclose the datastore name in square brackets, `[]`, in the volume definition, as shown previously.
  <5> The file system type to mount. For example, ext4, xfs, or other file-systems.
