Resize a disk image used with VirtualBox in Ubuntu?
Are you aware that a new version of Virtual Box is now available? The new version seems to have some cool and new features, so you may want to try it and see if it fits your needs.

Offering standby VMs – without undue ‘just-in-case’ costs?
Did you look at www.VMUtil.com?
The user guide, evaluator guide etc are all posted there. And also the signed software
To alleviate SCVMM pain, you can use VHDCopy.exe to checkout the VM
If you have a 60GB VHD file with 40GB free, VHD copy will avoid reading the 40GB and sending it across the network. By default, it will also not write the 40GB. With the /Secure option, it will write 40GBs of zeros, but the read and the xmission of the 40Gbs is still avoided.
Hope this helped.
