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:\\vm\\win2003\\Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition.vmdk"  
C:\\Program Files\\VMware\\VMware Workstation>vmware-vdiskmanager -x 4Gb "E:\\vm\\win  
2003\\Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition.vmdk"  
Using log file C:\\DOCUME~1\\ADMINI~1\\LOCALS~1\\Temp\\vmware-Administrator\\vdiskmana  
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:

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.)
