Introduction

VHD tool is an unmanaged code command-line tool which provides useful VHD manipulation functions including instant creation of large fixed-size VHDs. The source code is included.

Usage

VhdTool.exe /create <FileName> <Size> [/quiet]

VhdTool.exe /convert <FileName> [/quiet]

VhdTool.exe /extend <FileName> <NewSize> [/quiet]

VhdTool.exe /repair <BaseVhdFileName> <FirstSnapshotAVhdFileName> [/quiet]

Create: Creates a new fixed format VHD of size <Size>.

WARNING - this function is admin only and bypasses

file system security. The resulting VHD file will

contain data which currently exists on the physical disk.

Convert: Converts an existing RAW disk image file to a fixed-format VHD.

The existing file length, rounded up, will contain block data

A VHD footer is appended to the current end of file.

Extend: Extends an existing fixed format VHD to a larger size <Size>.

WARNING - this function is admin only and bypasses

file system security. The resulting VHD file will

contain data which currently exists on the physical disk.

Repair: Repairs a broken Hyper-V snapshot chain where an administrator

has expanded the size of the root VHD. The base VHD will be

returned to its original size. THIS MAY CAUSE DATA LOSS if the

contents of the base VHD were changed after expansion.
