Some time back i moved from vmware to virtualbox, and am currently |
2 |
wondering if there are some old vmware files i can remove. Virtualbox uses |
3 |
the old vmware disk files, so first i checked via atime and lsof. |
4 |
|
5 |
Why does atime not show all the files that lsof shows were open? |
6 |
|
7 |
Steps were; |
8 |
1. start vm |
9 |
2. create and save dummy file in vm |
10 |
3. run lsof on vm PID |
11 |
4. shut down mv |
12 |
5. run find to see which files were accessed |
13 |
|
14 |
# lsof -p 2299 | grep 'VIRTUALS/Win-10-x64' |
