Dear All,
I want to configure a fixed VHD based on the remaining capacity of my unused capacity on the Physical Hard Disk.
I am a bit confused here as to how to determine and indicate the size of a fixed VHD based on my remaining capacity of my physical Hard Disk under Hyper-V.
Eg,
I am using a Seagate 2TB SAS hard disk.
Under My Computer, it shows 244GB for Drive C: and 1.58TB for Drive D:
Under the drive properties of each, it indicates:
262,038,089,728 bytes for Drive C: (244GB)
1,738,252,742,656 bytes for Drive D: (1.58TB)
In order to fully utilize the unused space of 1,738,252,742,656 bytes, how do I specify in GB in HYPER-V Settings?
I tried the following configuration:
I specify 1580GB, it remains 20GB spare space in HYPER-V (Storage-> Disk Management)
If I specify 1700GB, it shows 120GB spare space remaining in HYPER-V (Storage-> Disk Management)
(This is a bit weird because, if I were to specify 1600GB, in theory it should fully utilize the physical capacity of the hard disk, however by specifying a value 1700GB, it actually reflect a 120GB spare space remaining).
(What will happen if physical data exceeds the
So what is the exact value I should specify?
Pleas advise and thanks.
