Version: VMWare workstation 9
Host OS: Windows 7 64bit
Screenshots below.
I would like to resize my VM from 50GB to 100GB.
It seems that VMware workstation 9 is using a child vmdk file for my VM. In my case, its using "Windows Server 2008 R2 x64-000001.vmdk" for its virtual disk file. The correct file should be "Windows Server 2008 R2 x64.vmdk", I think.
There are currently no registered snapshots for this VM that I can see.
The virtual machine works fine as is, but I cannot resize the disk without the VMWare gui saying I should be performing the operation on the parent vmdk file.
It seems that I am running a snapshot that is not really a snapshot? How to I merge the 0000xx-Sxxx.vmdk files with the older -Sxx.vmdk files?
I have also tried to use the command line tool to resize the parent vmdk manually, but I am getting 'access denied' permission errors.
Regards,
Matt
