Hi folks,
I am new to virtualization and have some doubt in understanding virtual machine pause/suspend vs power shutdown behavior. I have VMWare Workstation 12 with almost all Linux distribution (including Ubuntu, FreeBSD, Kali Linux, window 7, 10 and also window server 2012). This is basically my home practice lab.
I have noticed when I pause (generally I do) it take extra space on my hard disk by creaking another copy but shutdown does not. Please guide so, I can re-arrange all.
