10:48 🔗 tuankiet Hello
10:48 🔗 alard Hi,
10:49 🔗 tuankiet Can you update the Warrior? Make it delete all of the downloaded data after shutdown?
10:50 🔗 alard It deletes everything when it boots. Isn't that enough?
10:51 🔗 tuankiet So why the Warrior hard disk is 19GB?
10:52 🔗 alard That's the way these virtual disks generally work: they grow up to their maximum size (60GB), even if there isn't any data on them.
10:52 🔗 alard So even if the warrior deleted everything before shutting down, the disk still wouldn't shrink.
10:52 🔗 tuankiet Ar, it's crazy. It will eat my free space
10:53 🔗 alard Well, you have two options: 1. shrink the disk with something like VBoxManage modifyhd disk.vdi compact
10:54 🔗 alard or 2. remove the data disk from the VM, create a new disk and attach it.
10:55 🔗 alard (The warrior will repartition and format the data disk when it boots.)
10:55 🔗 tuankiet Ah. Thanks!
10:57 🔗 tuankiet But the manual says this only effect on vdi but your disk is .vmdk!
