I created a virtual box, using 2 storage (.vdi) files on a windows guest on c:.
My system is running low on diskspace, therefore I'd like to move ONE of the files to d: (d has not enough space for both).
When intending to move both, I understand that cloning tho whole vm would be the best approach.
I read that it could cause problems to have the .vdi nonlocal. Is this true?
Could I move one of the .vdi files and adapt the settings in.vbox using an absolute path:
Code: Select all
<MediaRegistry>
<HardDisks>
<HardDisk uuid="{6fa7c97e-c967-4aa1-9d67-a23effe70b0f}" location="deb1.vdi" format="VDI" type="Normal"/>
<HardDisk uuid="{8f64ad19-345b-4043-800c-4118549f07e0}" location="deb64d2.vdi" format="VDI" type="Normal"/>
Code: Select all
<DVDImages>
<Image uuid="{e3bc6848-4559-4a6b-96c1-01b0c1101558}" location="C:/pod2si/Disc.iso"/>
Is this a safe approach?
Thx
