VirtualBox .VDI incorrect header

[userman]

Hi
I don't know if it's intentional or a typo, but the program creates a slightly "crooked" VDI, namely with the name in header:

Code: Select all

<<<< Oracle VM VirtualBox Disk Image

the standard one looks like this:

Code: Select all

<<< Oracle VM VirtualBox Disk Image >>>

this title is informational, and it doesn't seem to affect the work of other programs...

Hi,

Thanks for your update. Could you please describe the conversion scenario? I will need the source Hypervisor and whether you are trying to convert the entire VM as V2V?

It is possible that each program was run differently and therefore some structures were changed to accommodate. This information is too limited for me to determine further.

Excuse me, I don't follow your comment, please rephrase.

[userman]

I use local conversion VHD, VHDX to VDI

[yaroslav (staff)]

Thanks for your update! What is the source hypervisor (e.g., Windows Server 2022)? Do you convert the entire VM or just its disks?

[userman]

It was a disk created using standard tools Windows 11

Thanks! I have logged a request.
Thanks for pointing that out.

That's expected: my colleague mentioned that Virtual Box adds these headers.

[userman]

Virtual Box add header:

Code: Select all

<<< Oracle VM VirtualBox Disk Image >>>

but V2V Converter add header:

Code: Select all

<<<< Oracle VM VirtualBox Disk Image

I will ask my colleagues to look at that [again]. Thanks.

[yaroslav (staff)]

You are absolutely right: it was a typo. Thanks for your cooperation.
