vmdk specification with vsphere

Hi,

Is VMDK format specification 1.1 is compatible with vSphere VMDK disks as well?? The sparse disk specification in VMDK format specification 1.1 holds for thin provisioned disks also..??? Please clarify on this.

Do we have any separate VMDK specification for vSphere release??

Thanks,

-Raghu.

Thin provisioned disks are a different disk type noted in disk types for VDDK 1.1.
