Support requests involving Mac OS on unsupported hardware (not a Mac) or software (VMware Workstation or VMware Player) will be removed, and will result in a ban. This includes discussion of 'unlocker' or other methods used to violate the Mac OS EULA by running Mac OS on non-Apple hardware. Expect posts facilitating or promoting piracy to be removed.

It allows features like offloaded backups of virtual machines hosted on VMware ESXi hosts up to VMFSv3.īased on fluidOps code, vmfs-tools evolved to add more VMFS features and supports read only VMFS mounts through the standard Linux VFS and the FUSE framework.

Разработка бесплатной версии fluidOps Command Line ToolĪ Java open source VMFS driver enables read-only access to files and folders on partitions formatted with the Virtual Machine File System (VMFS) is developed and maintained by fluid Operations AG.

This has been raised to 130,690 files (using GPT) on VMFS5

There is also a limit of approx 30,720 files (using MBR) on a single VMFS3 datastore.

VMFS5 uses 1 MB blocks throughout (with block suballocation for small files), and has a file size limit of 62 TB, though the VMDK size is restricted to 2 TB - 512 B in ESXi versions earlier than 5.5 due to a limitation in the version of SCSI emulated.

VMFS3 limits files to 262,144 (2 18) blocks, which translates to 256 GB for 1 MB block sizes (the default) up to 2 TB for 8 MB block sizes.

In vSphere 5.1, this limit is increased to 32 with the introduction of a new locking mechanism. This affects the scalability of linked clones sharing the same base image.

In VMFS3 and VMFS5 prior to vSphere 5.1, the maximum number of hosts which can share a read-only file is 8.

Maximum LUN size of 2 TB as of VMFS3 and 62 TB as of VMFS5.

Maximum filesystem size is 50 TB as of VMFS3, and 64 TB as of VMFS5.

Can be shared with up to 64 ESXi Servers.

Recover virtual machines faster and more reliably in the event of server failure with Distributed Journaling.

Optimize virtual machine I/O with adjustable volume, disk, file and block sizes.

With ESX/ESXi4, VMFS volumes can also be expanded using LUN expansion.

Add or delete an ESXi server from a VMware VMFS volume without disrupting other ESXi servers.

file name change, file size change, etc.) SCSI reservations are only implemented when logical unit number (LUN) metadata is updated (e.g.

Allows access by multiple ESXi servers at the same time by implementing per-file locking.
