I added this to a Ubuntu VM to look at it using Gparted and CloneZilla. Progress state: VBOX_E_NOT_SUPPORTED VBoxManage: error: Resize hardĭisk operation for this format is not implemented yet!īelow is the disk layout of my vdi disk.
Even if you try variants you will consistently get error messages like: Purportedly with vdi you could decrease virtual size/capacity with commands similar to vboxmanage modifyhd MSWIN7.vdi -resize 160000 vboxmanage clonehd -format VDI MSWIN7.VHDX MSWIN7.vdi Using Disk2vhd I have created a vhdx file. If you run for example a Jenkins build server on a dynamically expanding disk you could see the disk expanding quickly to its maximum size while in the guest OS disk space usage is stable and there is lots of free space. This will expand a dynamic disk to it maximum size.Īside from this special case there are other reasons for wanting disks to be smaller and fixed. It needs to be fixed because I will install PGP disk encryption on it for compliance reasons. This is easy, I have done this before, but this time I needed the virtual size/capacity of the disk to be a fixed and smaller size.
I want turn a physical machine running MS Windows 7 into a VirtualBox virtual machine.
