Clone VM Much Much Bigger (100G) than Original 14G

Post by aymanzone »

Hi,

Why is clone size increasing by 9 fold?

I just cloned a 14G virtual machine, the new clone virtual box is 100G!!!! O. M. G.

In the new Clone I have removed 4G of software such as Oracle database, personal folder, etc.

Emptied Recycle Bin

Defragmented

New clone is now 106G, original was 14G.

This is Dynamically allocated storage.


Thank you.
