Comment 1 Matthew Booth 2010-06-07 08:51:56 UTC 
The naming convention is weird, but it's an artifact of how ESX names volumes. The proposed naming scheme wouldn't work, for example, if the guest had 2 volumes. It also doesn't take into account that volumes can be created and named explicitly, meaning that 2 volumes from different guests can have the same name. These need to be able to co-exist when flattened.
