currently disk usage max'd out 2tb approx 50gb free, servers using fixed disks whiten hypr-v  servers. , total usage approx 1tb of data therefore 50% usage, 

we moving mailboxes withen exchange approx 22gb worth 1 disk 75gb used , 350gb fixed size.to fixed disk 500gb used , 1 tb total size. when mailboxes been moved hyper-v host runs out of disk space , pauses guest os. 

we not use snapshots , im not quite understanding why host disk space getting used when have fixed vhd.

hi jon,

have problem been solved?

if vhd file fixed , should not extend space in disk.

please use "inspect disk..." in right side of hyper-v manager inspect the vhd file.

best regards
