description:
  - Allows you to create/delete/stop instances in Proxmox VE cluster.
  - The module automatically detects containerization type (lxc for PVE 4, openvz for older).

  disk:
    description:
      - This option was previously described as "hard disk size in GiB for instance" however several formats describing a lxc
        mount are permitted.
      - Older versions of Proxmox will accept a numeric value for size using the O(storage) parameter to automatically choose
        which storage to allocate from, however new versions enforce the C(<STORAGE>:<SIZE>) syntax.
      - Additional options are available by using some combination of the following key-value pairs as a comma-delimited list
        C([volume=]<volume>
        [,acl=<1|0>] [,mountoptions=<opt[;opt...] [,quota=<1|0>] [,replicate=<1|0>] [,ro=<1|0>] [,shared=<1|0>]
