Like a physical computer, a VMware ACE virtual machine stores its operating system, programs and data files on one or more hard disks.
The New Virtual Machine Wizard creates a virtual machine with one disk drive. You can use the virtual machine settings editor (VM - Settings) to add more disk drives to your virtual machine, to remove disk drives from your virtual machine or to change certain settings for the existing disk drives.
This section describes the choices you can make in setting up hard disk storage for your virtual machine.
Virtual Disk Basics
In the most common configurations, VMware ACE creates virtual hard disks, which are made up of files that are typically stored on your host computer's hard disk.
A virtual disk is a file or set of files that appears as a physical disk drive to a guest operating system. While you are working in VMware ACE Manager, the files can be on the host machine or on a remote computer. When an end user installs a package, the virtual disk files are always stored locally.
When you configure a virtual machine with a virtual disk, you can install a new operating system onto the virtual disk without repartitioning a physical disk or rebooting the host.
IDE virtual disks can be as large as 128GB. SCSI virtual disks can be as large as 256GB. Depending on the size of the virtual disk and the host operating system, VMware ACE creates one or more files to hold each virtual disk.
By default, the actual files used by the virtual disk start out small and grow to their maximum size as needed. The main advantage of this approach is the smaller file size. Smaller files require less storage space and result in a more compact package for distribution to your end users. They also are easier to move if you want to move the virtual machine to a new location. However, it takes longer to write data to a disk configured in this way.
Virtual disks can be set up as IDE disks for any guest operating system. They can be set up as SCSI disks for any guest operating system that has a driver for the LSI Logic or BusLogic SCSI adapter available in a VMware ACE virtual machine. You determine which SCSI adapter to use at the time you create the virtual machine.
Note: To use SCSI disks in a Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 virtual machine, you need a special SCSI driver available from the download section of the VMware Web site at www.vmware.com/download. Follow the instructions on the Web site to use the driver with a fresh installation of Windows XP or Server 2003.
A virtual disk of either type can be stored on either type of physical hard disk. That is, the files that make up an IDE virtual disk can be stored on either an IDE hard disk or a SCSI hard disk. So can the files that make up a SCSI virtual disk. They can also be stored on other types of fast-access storage media, such as DVD-ROM or CD-ROM discs.
