ok, this could be a fast workaround to implement

# qemu-img info -f vmdk /nas/proxmox/testmox2/testmox2.vmdk

Curiously, qemu doesn't seem to recognise the vmdk file until i use "-f 
wmdk" : 

# qemu-img info -f vmdk /nas/proxmox/testmox2/testmox2.vmdk 

image: /nas/proxmox/testmox2/testmox2.vmdk 
file format: vmdk 
virtual size: 41G (44023414784 bytes) 
disk size: 2.8G 
Format specific information: 
cid: 3035973716 
parent cid: 4294967295 
create type: vmfs 
extents: 
[0]: 
virtual size: 44023414784 
filename: /nas/proxmox/testmox2/testmox2-flat.vmdk 
format: VMFS 

# qemu-img info /nas/proxmox/testmox2/testmox2.vmdk 
image: /nas/proxmox/testmox2/testmox2.vmdk 
file format: raw 
virtual size: 10K (10240 bytes) 
disk size: 50K
