why vmfd got created

Hi All,

As anyone experience viewing VMFD file under VM file directory.

I recently encrypted a vm using KMS server and after that i saw a file -1.vmfd got created automatically. Also the naming convention of all other file started with -1.file name. This was not the case before encrypting the VM. All the vm file structure was same as normal. Also, I have not find any article which states that after encryption of VM file called VMFD will generate.

Anyone who experienced this please comment into it.

Regards,

Bhards4
