Dear All,
I have one Hyper V server that is running Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise. This Hyper V is used for AD and CAS and mailbox of exchange server. I have built 3 VMs inside. For instance, VM1, VM2, and VM3. each of the VM has been given 100GB HDD size and all is fixed disk VHD. The HDD partition size that is used to store the VHD is 700GB size. Currently, each of the VM HDD utilization is less than 50%.
Now, this is the problem. currently, I have been monitoring the HDD size from the hyper v server. I found that though each of the VM is not really fully utilized, the partition that hold the VHD for the 3VMs is keep increasing. Currently it has taken over 600GB, though the total of the 3 VMs VHD size is just about 300GB. it is very strange. when I check on the properties to check the total size of the VHD folders inside the partition, It is shown that only 300 over GB being used.
Kindly advise me on what happen to the partition, which cause the size is keep growing.
thanks for your attention.
Regards,
Henry
