Re: How to do a random linkage of child VMDK

Hi Andre,

Thanks for the reply.

I use VDDK 5.1.1. In docs i see two API's VixDiskLib_Reparent and VixDiskLib_Combine. How can i use these API's ?

And one more question,

While creating a child disk is this sequence possible

1. Create a disk using VixDiskLib_Create(with parentpath specified in the appglobals) instead of VixDiskLib_CreateChild.

2. Use VixDiskLib_Attach to attach the created disk to a parent? (assume the created disk contains only the changed block data).

The VDDK documentation spcifies "Attaching an arbitrary child in a disk chain". Can someone tell me is the above implementation valid - if not how can a arbitray child be added in a disk chain?

/Thanks.
