I have done head -20 my vmdk
that gave me this result
KDMV▒▒$▒<
# Disk DescriptorFile
version=1
encoding="windows-1252"
CID=83f2770c
parentCID=ffffffff
isNativeSnapshot="no"
createType="monolithicSparse"
# Extent description

#DDB
ddb.toolsVersion = "8448"
ddb.adapterType = "lsilogic"
ddb.geometry.sectors = "63"
ddb.geometry.heads = "255"
So in the datastore there is two cached vmdk the sparse one and the converted one of 60 Go
EDIT
Now it "boot" but there is a bluescreen when booting and then saying maybe there has been some changes on the hardware
?
I'm new at windows in a VM is it really movable from worstation to ESX through openstack ? is there some windows pre requisites before cloning the .vmdk ?
EDIT 2
I think the problem is cause by the hardware version. Openstack with vCenter launch hardware VM version 10 whereas workstation have created a VM with version 8
