I see here How do I increase the hard disk size of the virtual machine.
It should work with a command like
VBoxManage modifyhd xp.vdi --resize 2000
When the VDI has a fixed size you can get this error:
~/VirtualBox VMs/xp$ VBoxManage modifyhd xp.vdi --resize 2000
0%...
Progress state: VBOX_E_NOT_SUPPORTED
VBoxManage: error: Resize hard disk operation for this format is not implemented yet!
The discusion and solution to that is here.
But I get that error while my VDI is dynamic
~/VirtualBox VMs/xp$ VBoxManage showhdinfo xp.vdi
UUID: 8880dc58-cd0c-4ffb-a583-f8dd50eda98e
Parent UUID: base
State: created
Type: normal (base)
Location: /home/cip/VirtualBox VMs/xp/xp.vdi
Storage format: VDI
Format variant: dynamic default
Capacity: 8192 MBytes
Size on disk: 4693 MBytes
In use by VMs: xp (UUID: e2b70963-3c26-41cf-88f6-4e03ca721e2d)
Why is that?
