Time Consumption for Thin to Thick conversion

[GPVenkatesh]

Hi  -

We have 650GB Thin Provisioned VM and need to inflate the same to Thick now. Below are disk split and present usage details.

Please help us with identifying time consumption of inflation process.

Backend Datastore - Local Raid 5-Store [PERC H730P Adapter - 11*300GB SAS Magnetic Disk (12Gbps-15KRPM)]
Two vmdks - one is [500GB-Allocated; 430GB Used] and other is [150GB-Allocated; 140GB-Used]

Thank you.

It's impossible to know how long that inflation process will take, but your consumed-to-allocated ratio is already fairly high, so it wouldn't be a terribly long process.
