"An error occurred during the conversion: 'Block level cloning does not support shrinking volumes'

Hi,


I'm attempting to virtualize a SQL database server that has an direct attached array connected to it.  Some of the partitions are stored on this array.  It gets through all of them, but one.  Immediately when it starts to convert that drive, it fails with the error "An error occurred during the conversion: 'Block level cloning does not support shrinking volumes'.  I can't seem to find anything online about the error so I'm wondering if any of you have seen it?

 

I've set all of the drives to be Thin Provisioned and I leave it at the original size.  The only thing I have done outside of the default is to remove one of the drives from the conversion and set them to thin provision. 

 

Not sure what info I would need to proved here, so please let me know if you have any questions.


Thanks,

T
