Research direction
The issue requests a code example for changing disk persistence using pyVmomi SDK. The referenced issue #27 in the pyvmomi repository might contain more context. The solution should create a Python script using pyVmomi's API to modify a virtual machine disk's persistence mode (e.g., independent persistent, independent nonpersistent). Look at existing samples in the repository for patterns on connecting to vCenter and performing VM operations. No existing code or comments are provided in this issue.
