[ Solved ] Win VBOX 4.0.4 vboxmanage createhd split2g
Posted: 22. Feb 2011, 06:09
Hello,
It took me a bit to figure this one out so I hope this might help someone else.
NOTE: Split2k only works with VMDK if you use VDI it accepts the command but still does not split the image.
Split2g seems to work with the option 'Fixed' use the 'comma' to separate disk flags.
this example fails without the fixed flag:
"C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe" createhd --filename ubuntu-x64-webservice --sizebyte 17179869184 --format vdi --variant fixed,split2g
or
"C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe" createhd --filename ubuntu-x64-webservice --sizebyte 17179869184 --format vmdk --variant fixed,split2g
Enjoy
