export via vmkfstools & RDM

[demz]

Second question of the day, I'm working hard today...

I've to export a VM on a windows share, I wanted to use vmkfstools -i as usual, but I noticed that this VM got a RDM disk.

I've never encountered this situation, how vmkfstools will deal with this ?

Can it convert this RDM disk into a VMDK 2gbsparse ? What will append when I'll do the import of this disk ?

Thanks !

Finally I cloned this VM and the new VM had the RDM transformed into a VMDK.

I just make the export from this clone, but still dunno what is the result if I do the export directly on the RDM...
