I assume that you want to reduce the nominal size of the virtual disk. User the VMware Converter Standalone to achieve this. You choose your guest as the source machine and create a new clone from it while reducing the size of the .vmdk.

I didn't sent that EMail, VMTN did that as I answered to you post. And sorry I don't click on your link as my mother told me to be careful if I don't know somebody.

Either create a global exception for vmware.com or use another email address to connect to the forums. Email that you receive about your forum activities does not come from the individuals who posted a response.
