Environment: Windows 7 64 bits as host - Ubuntu 13.10 64 bits as guest - VirtualBox (VBox) 4.3.2 - VMware Workstation (VW) 10.0
Hello everyone,
I've been trying to load vmdk files generated by VBox into VMware Workstation without any issue as long as I load the "parent" vmdk, the one located in the same folder as .vbox and .vbox-prev files.
What is the most interesting thing to do is to load the last child: I've made several snapshots along the way and I'd like to create a VM inside VW with its last VM version,without losing the whole chain of snapshots created from the same parent, i.e without merging all the snapshots within VBox (I need to be able to go back in time).
I tried to copy all the snapshots vmdk and the parent vmdk into a single folder and tried to create a VM under VMware Workstation (VW) using the original vmdk as existing virtual disk, but VW does not see the whole chain of snapshots. It sees only the original parent.
How can I create a VM inside VW using all VBox snapshots and parent vmdk so that I can run the last state of the snapshots chain,without merging all the snapshots within VBox?
