Hello,
I have a VM that has two VMDKs. The VM files and the VMDK that is the C: drive are on Datastore1. The VMDK that is the 😧 drive is on Datastore2. I need to move the VM and C: drive VMDK to Datastore2. However, both datastore folders have the same name (let's say /Server1) and both VMDKs have the same name (Server1.vmdk).
So, I need to move:
Datastore1\Server1 (which contains Server1.vmx, Server1.vmdk and all other VM files)
to:
Datastore2\Server1 (which contains the 😧 drive Server1.vmdk only)
If I try to move the folder in Datastore Browser, will it overwrite the existing folder, thus deleting the destination Server1.vmdk? And if the whole folder doesn't get overwritten, will the source Server1.vmdk file overwrite the destination Server1.vmdk? Is there a way to accomplish this move without overwriting? This is using vSphere 5 Essentials with vCenter 5.5.
Thanks!
