Whether QueryDiskChangedArea() and VixDiskLib_QueryAllocatedBlocks() both return the entire disk?
I'm backing up a virtual machine's disk in NFS storage on a vCenter 7.0.3u3. When I use QueryDiskChangedArea() and VixDiskLib_QueryAllocatedBlocks() to query the disk's changed data, it returns the data of the entire disk, and many of its data may be 0, I don't need these 0 data, what should I do to know which data is really useful?please help me?
hi, scott28tt, thanks for your reply!QueryDiskChangedArea() is the interface of the called Mob, the current version is 7.0.3 u3, and VixDiskLib_QueryAllocatedBlocks() is the interface of VixDiskLib, the version is 7.0.0
One limitation is that VixDiskLib_QueryAllocatedBlocks returns the whole VMDK for NFS, rather than just the allocated blocks as for VMFS, vSAN, and VVol datastores.
