you only need to get a spare virtual disk to your guest what you do there is your business and nobody but you has to decide if you format if with XFS, EXT4 or assign it to ATS
maybe this is really that complicated there one reason why i always host my own hardware with ESXi/vSphere Am 18.10.2013 19:12, schrieb Adam W.
