That makes sense. I appreciate your input.

Are you exporting to an .ova and uploading the .ova or uploading the actual VHD that VirtualBox uses?

If you are uploading the .ova, what format are you saving in?(options are Open Virtualization Format 0.9, Open Virtualization Format 1.0, Open Virtualization Format 2.0, Oracle Public Cloud Format 1.0)

I saved a 30G VHD, but when I exported in Open Virtualization Format 2.0 it is only 1.28GB, and when I check the import with describe-import-image-tasks it shows format as VMDK:

                {
                    "Status": "active",
                    "UserBucket": {
                        "S3Bucket": "my-file-bucket",
                        "S3Key": "SNG7-PBX-64bit-1805-1.ova"
                    },
                    "DiskImageSize": 1392707584.0,
                    "Format": "VMDK"
                }
            ],
