Hello,
is there a fast and easy way to detect if a sector of a VMDK file is not used ?
I mean:
instead of calling VixDiskLib_Read and check if all the bytes of the sector are all zeros, is there a fast way to discover if a sector is not used ?
When reading big images, I would find a fast way to skip unsed sectors....
Thanks,
Francesco
We will have a way to do this. Watch this space for announcements.

There is no such direct way using current version of vixdisklib.

Thanks a lot for your fast answer !
Two last questions:
1- Are there any plan to provide such a function ?
2- Or if is there an "indirect" way to check and fastly detect unused sectors ?
We will have a way to do this. Watch this space for announcements.
Thanks
