[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1253465] Re: qemu-img: 'image' uses a vmdk feature which is not supported by this qemu version: VMDK version 3

VirtualBox can.

- VirtualBox uses VMDK version 3 disks.
- When you export a VM with VirtualBox (creating an .ova), it will include VMDK 
version 3 disks.
- VirtualBox can convert from vmkd to vdi. ('VBoxManage clonehd --format VDI 
"vmdk_file" "vdi_file"')

Does that help?
