This file serves as the base virtual hard disk drive (HDD) for the OS10 virtual machine. Unlike standard firmware images used for physical switches, this VMDK (Virtual Machine Disk) file contains the core file system architecture required to run OS10 on a hypervisor. It is typically distributed as part of a larger virtualization bundle (e.g., OS10_Virtualization_10.x.x.xV.zip ) which includes two other essential files:
A .vmdk file is a container format developed by VMware to mimic a physical hard drive. The specific file os10-disk-1.0.0.vmdk serves as the primary boot disk for a virtualized instance of the OS10 switch. This file is crucial for:
: .vmdk files are specific to VMware products, but they can be converted to other formats for use in different virtualization environments. This file can be moved between different VMware products with minimal effort.
The wizard will map the os10-disk-1.0.0.vmdk as the primary hard disk for the new virtual machine.
Place the .vmdk file on fast storage (SSD) to ensure the virtual switch responds effectively during simulations. Conclusion
