ianmcorvidae: tell me if you get it to work with VirtualBox. I didn't and I am out of ideas currently. Also added a comment to the blog post.

out of interest does Vm Fusion just turn your mac into a linux/windows box stopping its usage as a OSX box ?

no

at least, none of the ones I've used have done that

ijabz: if I remember correctly, the only special thing about fusion as opposed to normal vmware is that it let you have individual windows per app rather than a desktop window that hold everything.

(first time, importing just the vmdk, it says something about a misformatted header, but after that it seems to just say it's unsupported)

the primary difference I can see in the vmdk headers is that the new one seems to have spaces after values, where an old vmdk from the last release doesn't

re: the "improperly quoted value" thing, I think, but
2013-08-01 21359, 2013
ianmcorvidae
other than some other random differences, like ours claims to be readonly, it has an embedded name thing of "generated-stream.vmdk" rather than the real name, uses some different adapter types -- but none of that has to do with actual header formatting

ianmcorvidae: no dynamic disc anymore (so the disc is really that big anyways?)
possibly there's some way to make the VDI less space-intensive though
2013-08-01 21323, 2013

turn the disk into a raw file image, load it into qemu on linux, use 'fstrim' to free the space, then convert it back :)

VBoxManage modifyhd seems to have a --compact option, which seems likely to be what's needed
2013-08-01 21345, 2013
ocharles
yea, but that doesn't work with VMWare
2013-08-01 21350, 2013
ocharles
my original script already called that
2013-08-01 21312, 2013

the --compact option can't help with areas on the fs that contain data that's not referenced, I think?

(when building the separate DB drive)
2013-08-01 21323, 2013

well, this is using a vdi anyway, since the vmdk that VMWare output fails entirely on vbox
2013-08-01 21327, 2013

"For this operation to be effective, it is required that free space in the guest system first be zeroed out using a suitable software tool." - so, yeah.
2013-08-01 21305, 2013
kepstin-work
but using the raw image format with qemu on linux is nice, because it supports the TRIM operation, which turns into holes in the sparsely allocated file.
2013-08-01 21326, 2013
kepstin-work
assuming a new enough linux kernel to have the 'hole punch' operation.
