VMware Server supports both ''growable'' and ''pre-allocated'' virtual disks. In addition, the disks can be specified to be contained in a single file, or divided into multiple 2GB files.
The virtual disk type is defined at the point that the disk is created. Whilst this is generally not a problem, VMware Server does not support the shrinking of pre-allocated virtual disks. Before a pre-allocated disk can be reduced in size, therefore, it is necessary to first convert it to a ''growable'' disk. This can be performed using the Virtual Disk Manager tool ('''vmware-vdiskmanager''').
