Hi

 

 

I am trying to mount the vmdk file of 2012 guest OS using VDDK(5.0,5.1,5.1.1) vmware-mount.exe.

 

It has mounted the disk but while i'm trying to open the drive in command prompt it will return the following error"A device attached to the system is not functioning."

 

I have tried the following steps

 

Command Prompt 1: (Mounting the vmdk file)


=================================================================================================

C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Virtual Disk Development Kit\bin>vmware-mount.exe

No volumes mounted.

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Virtual Disk Development Kit\bin>vmware-mount.exe T: "F:\Vmdk_Files\2012-guest_os.vmdk"

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Virtual Disk Development Kit\bin>vmware-mount.exe

T:\  =>  F:\Vmdk_Files\2012-guest_os.vmdk

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Virtual Disk Development Kit\bin>

=================================================================================================

 

 

Command Prompt 2:(Trying to open the mounted disk with the drive letter)

======================================================

C:\>T:

A device attached to the system is not functioning.

 

C:\>

======================================================

 

How can i view the files inside the disk.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

 

Thanks & Regards

Manickam
