本文详细介绍VMware的改变预分配硬盘空间的方法

  前几个月在这问过要改变预分配硬盘空间的问题(不是动态分配的),建议中有提到克隆的方法,试过可以完成。

  今天看到VMware有一种方法,试验后也可以完成,假设拟定vmware虚拟的在e分区的win2003下,那么转到vmware的cmd下,运行

  vmware-vdiskmanager -x 4Gb "E:vmwin2003Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition.vmdk"

C:Program FilesVMwareVMware Workstation>vmware-vdiskmanager -x 4Gb "E:vmwin
2003Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition.vmdk"
Using log file C:DOCUME~1ADMINI~1LOCALS~1Tempvmware-Administratorvdiskmana
ger.log
Grow: 100% done.
The old geometry C/H/S of the disk is: 261/255/63
The new geometry C/H/S of the disk is: 522/255/63
Disk expansion completed successfully.
WARNING: If the virtual disk is partitioned, you must use a third-party
utility in the virtual machine to expand the size of the
partitions. For more information, see:
http://www.vmware.com/support/kb/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=1647

  意思是给你的虚拟系统的“硬盘”增加到4G(就象你的硬盘多了n个柱面一样),注意,运行后系统还得用第三方工具把“硬盘”分区扩增了。

  注意,无论你用克隆方法还是命令行方式,原来的快照都会丢失。

  参考一下:

  VMware Virtual Disk Manager - build 12544.

  Usage: vmware-vdiskmanager.exe OPTIONS diskName | drive-letter:

  Offline disk manipulation utility

  Options:

  -c : create disk; need to specify other create options

  -d : defragment the specified virtual disk

  -k : shrink the specified virtual disk

  -n : rename the specified virtual disk; need to

  specify destination disk-name

  -p : prepare the mounted virtual disk specified by

  the drive-letter for shrinking

  -q : do not log messages

  -r : convert the specified disk; need to specify

  destination disk-type

  -x : expand the disk to the specified capacity

  Additional options for create and convert:

  -a : adapter type (ide, buslogic or lsilogic)

  -s : capacity of the virtual disk

  -t : disk type id

  Disk types:

  0 : single growable virtual disk

  1 : growable virtual disk split in 2Gb files

  2 : preallocated virtual disk

  3 : preallocated virtual disk split in 2Gb files

  The capacity can be specified in sectors, Kb, Mb or Gb.

  The acceptable ranges:

  ide adapter : [100.0Mb, 950.0Gb]

  scsi adapter: [100.0Mb, 950.0Gb]

  ex 1: vmware-vdiskmanager.exe -c -s 850Mb -a ide -t 0 myIdeDisk.vmdk

  ex 2: vmware-vdiskmanager.exe -d myDisk.vmdk

  ex 3: vmware-vdiskmanager.exe -r sourceDisk.vmdk -t 0 destinationDisk.vm

  dk

  ex 4: vmware-vdiskmanager.exe -x 36Gb myDisk.vmdk

  ex 5: vmware-vdiskmanager.exe -n sourceName.vmdk destinationName.vmdk

  ex 6: vmware-vdiskmanager.exe -k myDisk.vmdk

  ex 7: vmware-vdiskmanager.exe -p m:

  (A virtual disk first needs to be mounted at m:

  using the VMware Diskmount Utility.)
