Resizing VMDK file in vsphere 6.7 for Win 2k16 guest OS.

I wanted to reduce the VMDK file size since Guesst VM has 500GB of unallocated space.

 

VM configured with single disk and that disk has two primary partitions and an unallocated space 500GB.

 

I couldn't find proper solutions as Vmware recommended. But there is a way that we can edit descriptor value .VMDK file.

To edit the value use the formula of

New descriptor value

(Total disk size*1024*1024*2)-(Total disk sizet be removed*1024*1024*2)

 

If we perform above one then on VM edit setting hardisk option is greyed out.

 

So let me know know is there any best solutions which we can perform and achieve the resizing.
