![]() After that I was able to attach the newly created disk to VitrualBox.ġ) MAKE A BACKUP!!! Even if you follow these instruction, you could screw things up, so make a backup. Essentially what I did was download and use the vmware converter to merge the two disks into one. I've some instructions on using vmware-vdiskmanager.exe to accomplish this, but I get an error stating "The parent of this virtual disk could not be opened."Īfter many attempts I was finally able to get this working. My question is, what can I do to either combine or import the Win2003-000002.vmdk disk image into the Win2003-flat.vmdk disk image so that VirtualBox will use the correct disk image? When I import the disk image into VirtualBox (the Win2003.vmdk file), it uses the Win2003-flat.vmdk disk image. Looking in the configuration of the VM under VMWARE, it says that it's using the win2003-000002.vmdk as the disk image. To elaborate, in the VM's folder i have the following vmdk files: Win2003.vmdk (1 K) I've got everything booting and running, but the issue is that VM is using the "flat" disk image instead of the correct disk image causing the disk image to be from the past (I know this because all the files on the machine have a timestamp of 2009). I've made a copy of the Virtual Machine folder for the VM (so I can experiment and not destroy the original) and have successfully created a VM in VirtualBox. I'm trying to migrate an existing VM from VMWARE to VirtualBox.
