Hello all,
I have a tricky one (so do I think)...
My virtual machines are raw-based files, created with a "dd if=/dev/zero
of=.. bs=1M count=0 seek=120000", for example.
As I want to have native I/O performances on my servers, I do not use
any NAS or SAN, so when I want to migrate my VMs: scp and/or rsync.
Now is there any way to be able to copy a sparse dd file that uses only
10MB out of 120GB without transferring the whole 120GB over to another
server (keeping the sparse capability, of course...)?
Thank you for your expertise!
Greetings,
Simon
