Description
It shows an error instead:
VBoxManage.exe: error: Resize hard disk operation for this format is not implemented yet!
Another (easier and safer) solution would be to add a --resize option to the clonehd command of VBoxManage
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
Just found on Google that clonehd has an --existing flag and it easily copies the contents even to a bigger fixed size vdi image. This does exactly the same I suggested, so the ticket was unnecessary.
Should make it into the FAQ though.
