Hello,
I've been trying to create a clone of my current virtual boot disk
before I try to enlarge it.
I cd to the directory with the VDI file, and then:
VBoxManage clonehd Windows_7_64bit.vdi Windows7_Clone.vdi
The command reports:
VBoxManage: error: Cannot register the hard disk
'/usr/home/redhotmomma/sdb/VirtualBox VMs/Windows_7_64bit/Windows_7_64bit.vdi'
{83b50fa1-90ab-404d-bb6f-1a198017d05b} because a hard disk
'/home/redhotmomma/sdb/VirtualBox VMs/Windows_7_64bit/Windows_7_64bit.vdi' with
UUID {83b50fa1-90ab-404d-bb6f-1a198017d05b} already exists
VBoxManage: error: Details: code NS_ERROR_INVALID_ARG (0x80070057), component

AccessMode_ReadWrite, fForceNewUuidOnOpen, pMedium.asOutParam())" at line 210
of file VBoxManageDisk.cpp
sdb@gigawattmomma$ VBoxManage clonehd Windows_7_64bit.vdi Windows7_Clone.vdi
VBoxManage: error: Cannot register the hard disk

AccessMode_ReadWrite, fForceNewUuidOnOpen, pMedium.asOutParam())" at line 210
of file VBoxManageDisk.cpp
Which is odd, because I thought conehd was supposed to createe a new
UUID.
This is with VIrtual Box 4.1, FreeBSD 9
Thanks for any help.
Regards,
Scott
