Re: Unable to accessing VMDK files of Windows 2012 Guest os with VixMntApi. (VMDK files of other guest OSs are working fine)

Hi Manickam,

 

I have downloaded WinSrv 2012 evaluation and have to report that I cannot reproduce your problem. Here is what I have done:

 

  • VM on WS 8.0.2.build-591240: os=WinSrv 2008 R2 x64, ram=2GB, scsi-0-0-disk=80GB, disktype=SPLIT_SPARSE
  • Installed Operating System: os=MS WinSrv 2012 Standard Evaluation, version=6.2.9200 Build 9200
  • VDDK in use: VMware VixDiskLib (5.0) Release build-614080
  • Mount machine: os=MS WinXP Pro, version=5.1.2600 SP3 Build 2600, systemtype=x86
  • Mount program is executed with administrative privileges.
  • Mounting is done RW and ReadOnly

 

I have used my test mount routine to go and try mounting the WinSrv 2012 disk and it just worked as expected. I even tried the call to FindFirstFile(...) everything is just working as expected. Also drive letter mapping is looking good in Windows Explorer.

 

Can this be of any help ???

 

Finally here the disk layout from within WinSrv 2012:
