You can use the VMware Virtual Disk Development Kit (VDDK) SDK to accelerate transferring virtual disks from VMware vSphere and reduce the risk of a migration plan migrating these disks from failing.

To use this feature, you download the VMware Virtual Disk Development Kit (VDDK), build a VDDK image, and push the VDDK image to a secure registry that is accessible to all clusters.

The VDDK package contains symbolic links, therefore, the procedure of creating a VDDK image must be performed on a file system that preserves symbolic links (symlinks).
