I need to move a VM across a slow connection. It was thin provisioned, and changed block traking was turned on. Two virtual disks.
So I cloned the disks to 2gbsparse and tar / compressed them to a .tgz file.
I intend to use vmkfstools to bring back the thin provisioned disks from the 2gbsparse ones on the other end.
Should I bring over the *-ctk.vmdk files and install with the machine?
Or should I turn off CBT before going through this process?
