Hi,
Does this grow on an on-going basis? For example we created a 500GB virtual disk an immediately something like 5GB was used. We then added this as a CSV and created a 490GB fixed size VHD on it, which should have left 5GB. It did initially but after a few months something has grown leaving the virtual disk with only 20MB free space meaning the VMs on this disk are in a permanent paused state.
Powershell won't even let me resize the virtual disk. We use storage tiers (HDD + SSD):
