This VMware builder is able to create VMware virtual machines from an
|
|
|
|
|
existing VMware virtual machine (a VMX file). It currently
|
|
|
|
|
supports building virtual machines on hosts running
|
|
|
|
|
[VMware Fusion](http://www.vmware.com/products/fusion/overview.html) for OS X,
|
|
|
|
|
[VMware Fusion Professional](http://www.vmware.com/products/fusion-professional/) for OS X,
|
|
|
|
|
[VMware Workstation](http://www.vmware.com/products/workstation/overview.html)
|
|
|
|
|
for Linux and Windows, and
|
|
|
|
|
[VMware Player](http://www.vmware.com/products/player/) on Linux.

The builder builds a virtual machine by cloning the VMX file using
|
|
|
|
|
the clone capabilities introduced in VMware Fusion 6, Workstation 10,

|
|
|
the clone capabilities introduced in VMware Fusion Professional 6, Workstation 10,
|
|
|
|
|
and Player 6. After cloning the VM, it provisions software within the
|
|
|
|
|
new machine, shuts it down, and compacts the disks. The resulting folder
|
|
|
|
|
contains a new VMware virtual machine.
