      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi communiy&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have some VMs that the type of disk is thick, I want to change this&amp;nbsp;behavior to thin to save storage. I have a ESXi host, Can someone help me&amp;nbsp; with alternatives? Thanks so much&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="WilliamsPad007_0-1620581592849.png" style="width: 400px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://communities.vmware.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/88707i3D790E9A3B7D782B/image-size/medium/is-moderation-mode/true?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="WilliamsPad007_0-1620581592849.png" alt="WilliamsPad007_0-1620581592849.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="WilliamsPad007_1-1620581601581.png" style="width: 400px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://communities.vmware.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/88708iCC9C3D2093917B09/image-size/medium/is-moderation-mode/true?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="WilliamsPad007_1-1620581601581.png" alt="WilliamsPad007_1-1620581601581.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Best Wishes&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;If you think the&amp;nbsp; win in available space is worth the additional risk use&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;vmkfstools&amp;nbsp; -i existing-thick.vmdk new-thin.vmdk -d thin&lt;BR /&gt;when the VM is powered off&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;or use storage-vmotion while the VM is running.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
