Hi,
I'm trying to add a DR restored vmdk file as another virtual disk to a running virtual machine. However, the existing disk and the recovered one both share the same UUID and so can not be used at the same time.
I could change one of those UUIDs by the "vmkfstools -J setuuid /path/to/vmdk" console command, which solved the issue. Is it the correct (supported) way, however?
Thanks.
Lukas

yes Lukas,
This is a recommended way to get a new UUID.
