    Hello. I need help. We need Extand an EagerZeroedThick disk. I use this manual https://tutoexpress.com/index.php/vmware-extend-an-eager-zeroed-thick-disk-keeping-its-format/

    When i used this command 

    vmkfstools -X 150G -D eagerzeroedthick '/vmfs/volumes/NVME DR6 IBM5200/VMT-22 (node 1-9)/VMT-22 (node 1-9)_1.vmdk'

     i saw error - You can specify only one command at a time

    I used in the comman specialy symbol   -     '

    because the path contains spaces.

    I use new command  (use symbol \)

    vmkfstools -X 150G -D eagerzeroedthick /vmfs/volumes/NVME\ DR6\ IBM5200/VMT-22\ \(node\ 1-9\)/VMT-22\ \(node\ 1-9\)_1.vmdk

    but  i saw error - You can specify only one command at a time

    I am delete spaces in path, but command not started, error - You can specify only one command at a time

    How extand an EagerZeroedThick disk when path contains spaces????

    The error message is likely not caused by the file name/path, but by an incorrect command line option.
    Please remember that these are case-sensitive, i.e. use "-d" instead of "-D".
