This is a known issue. VMware has not released the file format
specification for VMDK version 3. At this point the information needed
to implement version 3 support is not publicly available.
If you are aware of open source software which already supports version
3, please let us know!
Fam: Do you have instructions for exporting version 2 images from
VMware?

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?

Can you try again with QEMU 2.8? Recent versions of QEMU should be able to
handle version 3 VMDK disks.
