How to resize the disk hard virtual fixed on Windows Server 2012?

Original title: resizing VHDX fixed disk

I recently converted a dynamic VHD disk of 95 GB in size (use only 60 GB inside the guest) and now as a fixed disk it's 170 GB in size.

How can I resize the fixed disk newly created less than 80 GB in size?

I am running Windows Server 2012.

  • How to remove the disk HARD passwordon Portege R500?

    Hello

    do you know how to remove the HARD drive password? I know the current password, but if I try to remove it by changing your current password to a blank password, it does not work.
    It has password always news.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I hope that you use the correct and just HARD drive password because it of necessary to remove and delete the existing HARD disk password.
    If you have forgot the password for HARD drive then the HARD drive should be locked and you would not be able to unlock the HARD drive!

    Generally, the HARD drive password can be deleted in the BIOS.
    Please ensure that another password would be removed too.

    I found a forum thread useful on a password disk HARD similar question:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?MessageID=66386𐍒

    According to the information published by the user jonr17 you must first make sure that all other like BIOS passwords, user and supervisor passwords are removed.
    Then try to remove the HDD from the BIOS password.

  • Data on the disks hard virtual may be lost?

    Hi all.

    I have a background on Windows Azure, and in this platform, a Virtual Machine can be reimagee. When this happens, the data on the operating system drive is lost. That's why you need to create a separate virtual disk to store data (called "Data disk"). Is there something like that on VCloud? (I saw a 'Recustomization' function, but I don't know how it works). I need to perform any additional task to ensure that the data stored in the hard disk of the virtual machine will not be lost? (in addition to backups, of course).

    Thank you very much

    Jorge

    Under a normal VM configuration data will not be lost on the basis of normal operations.  If you where a paralytic redeploy them in a catalog, you need to treat it as a new copy; but the copy you already ave running not just data loss (except configuration in vCenter in a special way back on reboot - not common to all)

    Think about vCloud VM systems quite normal - you want to have a backup in place just like any other system in the case of an unexpected problem. but you shouldn't have special discs or normal backups every day use.

    That all said - I've seen an instance where users used NFS volumes for 100% of the data; This allows new kits to be spun and share data quickly.  But it was a necessary sharing of general data.

    VMware converter would be the best option with the option of HDD resize at the end another way is affecting your current VMDK THIN and you will be liberated from the unused space.
