The DiskMount User’s Manual
•
You cannot mount a virtual disk that is currently being used by a running or
suspended virtual machine. Only disks that are in a powered off virtual machine
can be mounted.
Statement of Support
The VMware DiskMount Utility is provided without support services from VMware
under the terms in the VMware DiskMount Utility license agreement.
Installing the VMware DiskMount Utility
The VMware DiskMount Utility is available as a free download from the VMware Web
site. To download DiskMount, go to
www.vmware.com/download/diskmount.html
.
Once you download the installer, run it on a Windows host machine. A VMware
virtualization product such as GSX Server or Workstation does not need to be installed
on the host.
Running the VMware DiskMount Utility

Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 host, then change to the directory where you
installed the software.
