In my case I used my Install OS X El Capitan.app that I had saved on an external hard disk.Дў/ When the language selection window appears, shut down the virtual machine.ДЈ/ Go to Virtual Machine in the menubar and choose 'Settings'.

How I resolved this turned out to be reasonably easy.ДЎ/ Go through the process of creating a new virtual disk using an installer for the operating system you want to use. What was needed was to find a way to combine the 40GB section with the additional free space into one continuous disk.

The reason this was happening was because VM Fusion was trying to copy the backup data to the 40GB partition/container, not the empty portion with the free space. I would get an error message saying there was not enough space.

If you make the virtual machine disk size larger, that extra space is set into a separate partition/container.ДЇor me, this meant that even after shutting down the virtual machine and increasing the disk size to 512 GB, I was still not able to migrate my backup to the virtual machine.

It seems that when a virtual machine is made, the OS is kept in its own separate 40GB partition/container. I was finally able to copy my bootable backup of El Capitan to a virtual machine, and it's now working fine!
