Location of the Virtual Machine Bundle
By default location for the VM bundles is ~/Documents/Virtual Machines.
However, each VM bundle can be placed in an arbitrary location during creation, in the "Finish" screen -> Customize Settings -> Save As: -> Browse button.
Recommended location: ~/VMware Fusion VMs.
To figure out where the files of an existing VM are, go to VMware Fusion -> Window -> Virtual Machine Library -> Select the VM -> Right Click -> Show in Finder.
Networking
Configure DHCP to Serve a Static Address
Get the MAC address for the VM's network interface: Virtual Machine -> Settings -> Network Adapter -> Advanced options -> MAC Address.
Edit /Library/Preferences/VMware Fusion/vmnet8/dhcpd.conf.
Add at the bottom of the file:
host my-host { hardware ethernet 00:0C:29:9C:53:FF; fixed-address 172.16.153.100; }
The address must be (?) from the subnet and the range declared at the top of the file.
Replace "my-host" wither host name.
