I have created an image with VMware workstration 10.0 from a ubuntu system. The problem is that the file is 146gb and the space used is almost 12gb. I tried to shrink it, resize it with program shrinkvd, VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Client, vmware-vdiskmanager but nothing happens. What should I do?

Did you try to export VM to OVF/OVA and then import with Thin disks?

This could help.

  • I will try it now. How I will use Thin disks? What should I do? Thanks – user1431148 May 14 '14 at 13:16
  • When you'll import VM there will be a question about disks. – micro May 14 '14 at 13:22
  • I just did it but when I imported the OVF it didn't referred to Thin disks or something similar. – user1431148 May 14 '14 at 14:11
  • It worked somehow and now it is 12gb. And when I power it on through VMware workstation it becomes 24gb. Maybe Thin disks you said now it is part of the import I did of OVM to VMware workstation. Thank you – user1431148 May 14 '14 at 14:45
