Astaro ESX OVF VMDK size

coewar
Hi.

Does anyone know why does the OVF come with a VMDK that registers as 80Gigs of storage? When I upload this to my vmware cloud providers, I have to create this 80Gig instance for the router. Yet, on Amazon the AMI created only need 10Gigs! (After saving the thread title I remembered that it's the vmware image, not the ESX image, but I'm not too clear on those differences.)

Will there be an updated version of this image to download?
Can I change the size of the thing using VirtualBOX?

    I think the 80 gig are thin provisoned, so it will use 80 gig only after several years.

    You do not need to use the prepared VM image. You are even able to install from the normal ASG Software iso. With the iso you are able to have whatever size you prefer.
