How to install the virtIO drivers ?
Hi [url=http://next.nutanix.com/member/profile?mid=9121]Jon[/url]! I'm currently trying to import / move a vmdk from vmware esxi6 to our nutanix datastore; - I can nfs-mount the nutanix datastore within vsphere client flawlessly... - I can copy the folder containing vmdk vmx files etc from vmware BUT - If I try to clone the correctly copied vmdk in prism via "Clone ADSF image" I have to enter disk size (?) - If I enter the same disk size, it doesnt boot correctly; the used size of the virtualdisk (256GB) is just some byte - Which input formats does the image service accept, i mean ... I don't have any vmdk-flat file just the regular 256GB vmdk from the esxi host, does it need the whole foldercontent of the vm from esxi any ideas how to import the vmdk?
Hi [url=http://next.nutanix.com/member/profile?mid=46827]mcdean[/url] i think you have to concatenate the split vmdk images first eg. [url=https://vmexpo.wordpress.com/2014/04/15/how-to-merge-multiple-vmdks-into-single-vmdk/]https://vmexpo.wordpress.com/2014/04/15/how-to-merge-multiple-vmdks-into-single-vmdk/[/url] I personally wouldn't do this on a windowsmachine, given the fact that multiple 2tb files would need some kind of ReFS setup first (I guess) .. You basically open up vsphere client, mount the nutanix datastore via nfs, copy over the vm, ssh into ntnx and concatenate with cp first but I'm just a forumuser and not sure if [url=http://next.nutanix.com/member/profile?mid=9121]Jon[/url] can acknowledge any of my recommendations ...
