Also the naming convention of all other file started with -1.file name. This was not the case before encrypting the VM. All the vm file structure was same as normal. Also, I have not find any article which states that after encryption of VM file called VMFD will generate.</P><P></P><P>Anyone who experienced this please comment into it.</P><P></P><P>Regards,</P><P>Bhards4</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 14 Feb 2020 10:31:45 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-vSphere-Discussions/why-vmfd-got-created/m-p/1856608#M22217 bhards4 2020-02-14T10:31:45Z Re: why vmfd got created https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-vSphere-Discussions/why-vmfd-got-created/m-p/1856609#M22218 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Moderator: Deleted your duplicate thread in the vCenter area - there's no need to post the same thing multiple times.</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 14 Feb 2020 11:59:09 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-vSphere-Discussions/why-vmfd-got-created/m-p/1856609#M22218 scott28tt 2020-02-14T11:59:09Z Re: why vmfd got created https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-vSphere-Discussions/why-vmfd-got-created/m-p/1856610#M22219 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Ok</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 14 Feb 2020 15:08:30 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-vSphere-Discussions/why-vmfd-got-created/m-p/1856610#M22219 bhards4 2020-02-14T15:08:30Z Re: why vmfd got created https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-vSphere-Discussions/why-vmfd-got-created/m-p/2981360#M45819 <P>which one is the other thread, I am unable to find it <img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://communities.vmware.com/html/@496A89FA088F62A110AE1F7E1799BA25/emoticons/1f61e.png" alt=":disappointed_face:" title=":disappointed_face:" /></P> Tue, 08 Aug 2023 13:21:46 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-vSphere-Discussions/why-vmfd-got-created/m-p/2981360#M45819 abshri 2023-08-08T13:21:46Z
