They are system files, ideally hidden files in the root of any VMFS volumes.

I GaneshNetworks,
Thanks for your fast answer, but, i'd like to know the exactly meaning of "sdd". As you show in the KB, there are several system files and all of them has an acronym, and i would like to know what is the acronym for "sdd".
Warm Regards!

I'm not very sure about that. But it could be "Scsi Device - D".
.sf = system file
.sdd = scsi device description
In vmfs 5 every datastore gets its own hidden files to save the file-system structure.
Issues unmounting the datastore with only this folder on it??? Check >> .sdd.sf folder after Storage vMotion
