I have created an image with VMware workstration 10.0 from a ubuntu system. The problem is that the file is 146gb and the space used is almost 12gb. I tried to shrink it, resize it with program shrinkvd, VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Client, vmware-vdiskmanager but nothing happens. What should I do?

Answer 1

Did you try to export VM to OVF/OVA and then import with Thin disks?

This could help.
