扩大VMWARE里面虚拟硬盘大小(*.vmdk)

发布时间:2008-02-02 00:54:49来源:红联作者:Nesoikps
最近编译2.6.22的内核时,发现虚拟机器FC6硬盘空间不够了,于是乎,想扩展下硬盘的大小。查了下资料,网上有人说再新建一个 new.vmdk,然后将其挂在到FC6下,个人觉得这种方式不好,有没有直接扩大原来的vmdk大小的方法了。又查了些资料,看了下vmware自带help,发现可以用工具vmware-vdiskmanager.exe(位于vmware安装路径:C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Workstation下)来实现。

先来看看vmware-vdiskmanager.exe的帮助手册(直接cmd下不带参数运行vmware-vdiskmanager.exe即可):

引用:
VMware Virtual Disk Manager - build 34685.
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 : (for use with -c only) 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.vmdk
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.)


看到没有,上面ex4已经给出了扩大硬盘的的命令,比如我想扩大到10G,命令如下:

vmware-vdiskmanager.exe -x 10Gb linux-fc6.vmdk
