thank you for your help, I researched about the vm and it's file types. what I found is: vmdk is the vm, v-disk, but it needs to be configured into a format that works on esxi. after configuration, used vmware converter, it creates vmx file, which is a text and consist of configuration of the vm.

thanks again,

my next issue is the resolution, when I open the vm with vmWare infrastructure client it is out of the screen. so either I need new tool or fix it.
