Hi,

I am not sure if it's the right place to post this question.

I tried to do a P2V operation of a Win2k3 server to ovirt 3.5

the physical server is RAID5 of 3x146Go configured, about 290 Go usable space, but the server uses about 20Go only.

I am wondering how to shrink the disk of the migrated physical machine, do I have to do it before using P2V tool?

The same question for Linux servers.

Thanks.

I just use a parted Live CD. You can do it before or after, whichever is more convenient. I normally do it after a P2V or V2V as it's so easy to use an ISO image in Ovirt. Cheers Alex .
