Its own manual frames it as a practical image-construction tool rather than a general virtualization suite. ### プロジェクトの歴史 The vmdktool manual says Brian Somers originally wrote the program in 2009 after being unable to find free tools for creating VMDK files. The same history section says it was used and fixed at companies where the author worked before being released publicly in 2012, after which support was added for the VMDK format update from version 1.1 to version 5.0. ### 使われ方 Typical use is direct and file-oriented: inspect an image with `vmdktool -i`, convert a raw filesystem image to a stream-optimized VMDK with `-v`, or extract raw data from a VMDK with random-access or streaming modes. The manual examples show using the tool in image-editing workflows where a VMDK is unpacked, mounted, modified, and repacked. ### パッケージ好きにとっての重要性 For package users, vmdktool is notable because it occupies the narrow gap between raw disk-image manipulation and full virtualization products. It is the kind of tiny sysadmin utility that becomes useful in automated VM image pipelines, especially where a free, scriptable VMDK converter is preferred over a vendor GUI. ### タイムライン - 2009: Brian Somers writes vmdktool to fill a free-tooling gap for creating VMDK files. - 2012: vmdktool is released to the general public. - 2012: Support is added for the VMDK specification update from version 1.1 to version 5.0. ### ソース - FreeBSD vmdktool manual: https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=vmdktool&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+Ports+15.0 - vmdktool manual source mirror with HISTORY section: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/glennmatthews/vmdktool/master/vmdktool.8 ## セキュリティノート narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger リスク:** グリーン / 低 - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## ソースデータベース詳細 - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** vmdktool - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** stable ## 他のパッケージマネージャ記録 - MacPorts - vmdktool: normalized package name match | MacPorts ports tree: sysutils/vmdktool/Portfile from https://api.github.com/repos/macports/macports-ports/git/trees/master?recursive=1 ## 関連リンク - [Terminal utility packages](https://pkg.so/ja/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Networking and protocol packages](https://pkg.so/ja/networking-protocol-tools/) - Matched network, protocol, or remote-service metadata. - [Homebrew utility packages](https://pkg.so/ja/brew-utility-packages/) - Matched Homebrew package provider. - [Secret-risk packages](https://pkg.so/ja/secret-risk-packages/) - Matched curated package taxonomy and local package facts. - [groff](https://pkg.so/ja/brew/groff/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [qemu](https://pkg.so/ja/brew/qemu/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, virtualization. - [virt-manager](https://pkg.so/ja/brew/virt-manager/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, virtualization. - [libosinfo](https://pkg.so/ja/brew/libosinfo/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, virtualization. - [lume](https://pkg.so/ja/brew/lume/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, virtualization. - [osinfo-db-tools](https://pkg.so/ja/brew/osinfo-db-tools/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, virtualization. - [nemu](https://pkg.so/ja/brew/nemu/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, virtualization. - [xz](https://pkg.so/ja/brew/xz/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system. - [zstd](https://pkg.so/ja/brew/zstd/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system. - [e2tools](https://pkg.so/ja/brew/e2tools/) - Local package facts share a topical domain.
