i've tried to take snapshots of linked clone VM and setting it to return to snapshot after power off.... which kinda works , reverting the size of linked clone but then its like russian rulette about which of that VM will still work unfortunatelly ;(

Do you remember to clean it? (:

I have the same problem. I stop everything and delete/reclone once you twice per day whenever it fills up my ssd and crashes (usually takes around 7 or 8 hours to eat 130 gigs).

If it eats 130Go per 8 hours, then you don't give enouh RAM to your VM, so it uses the PageFile system.

It happens at both 512 and 768mb

Ok.

We need to find a command line to delete and clone VM only with 1 clic ^^.

I'm going to search for that.

Save this as .bat and modify it by your needs, i.e. number of VMs, location etc.

Clone (XYZ is the original VM, XYZ01, XYZ02... are clones:

Code:

echo "Clone"
pause

C:
cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware VIX"


vmrun.exe -T ws clone "C:\VM\XYZ\XYZ.vmx" C:\VM\XYZ01\XYZ01.vmx linked
vmrun.exe -T ws clone "C:\VM\XYZ\XYZ.vmx" C:\VM\XYZ02\XYZ02.vmx linked

Delete old clones (Be careful and don't delete your original VM!):

Code:

echo "Delete"
pause

TIMEOUT /T 10

C:
cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware VIX"

vmrun.exe -T ws deleteVM C:\VM\XYZ01\XYZ01.vmx
vmrun.exe -T ws deleteVM C:\VM\XYZ02\XYZ02.vmx

Start VM's (You can add "TIMEOUT /T 60" if you want to make pause between VMs):

Code:

C:
cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware VIX"
vmrun.exe start C:\VM\XYZ\XYZ.vmx
vmrun.exe start C:\VM\XYZ01\XYZ01.vmx
vmrun.exe start C:\VM\XYZ02\XYZ02.vmx

Stop VM's:

Code:

C:
cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware VIX"
echo "Stop?"
pause
vmrun.exe stop C:\VM\XYZ\XYZ.vmx
vmrun.exe stop C:\VM\XYZ01\XYZ01.vmx
vmrun.exe stop C:\VM\XYZ02\XYZ02.vmx
