I was running our vCenter Server 4.1 on a Dell 2850..
The server was needed on another project that went active on short notice.
I converted the vCenter Server 4.1 Dell 2850 to a VM and increased the C: drive
The Dell 2850 vCenter was removed.
The vCenter on the VM is running as expected without any issues.
However, I now need to shrink the disk.
The VM settings for shows two Hard Disk:
Hard Disk 1 is Thick provisioned and is 50 GB.
Hard Disk 2 is Thick provisioned and is 136 GB.
Hard Disk 1 is the C drive and has 19 GB free out of the total 50 GB.
Hard Disk 2 is the D drive and has 131 GB free out of the total 136 GB.
Drive D is where the Update Manager stores the metadata
Question is.
Should I attempt to resize drive d: (down size)
or
Remove it and have Update Manager use the C: drive?
thanks
