Hi,

 

 

 

 

 

I got a VMware Server on a Linux OS and now I won´t to shrink a Linux Guest on that server. The Linux Guest have 2 HDD´s. One small with 10GB an a big one with 200GB. And the second partition is the one I want to shrink. I´ve deleted about 40GB on that disc so that now only 20GB are in use of that hdd.

 

 

The whole VM got about 80GB. But on the VMserver host I got only 4GB free disc space.

 

 

 

 

 

First Question: How can I prepare the Linux Guest for shrinking

 

 

Second Question: After the Linux Guest prepare, can I copy the whole VM to a workstation and shrink it with the VMware Workstation vdiskmanager?
