You have virtual machine named VM1.
VM1 uses a fixed size virtual hard disk (VHD) named Disk1.vhD. Disk1.vhd is 200 GB.
You shut down VM1.
You need to reduce the size of disk1.vhd.
Which action should you select from the Edit Virtual Hard Disk Wizard?
A.
Merge
B.
Compact
C.
Shrink
D.
Convert
The answer would be D, because the disk is fixed and not dynamic, then you first must convert the disk from fixed to dynamic.

Think it should be B as the convert would create a new VHD

It is C!
‘Compact’ is an action that can only be performed on a dynamic disk.
‘Shrink’ can be used on either (though should have little use on a dynamic disk), as long as there is free space in the file that the wizard can delete!
For example:
You have made a 80 GB fixed Vdisk. You find that this is too much space reserved on the local disk. In case the Vdisk file is not completely in use, than you can shrink its size down to a new value.
If the vdisk is full, then the shrink option will not even appear in the wizard.
