Hi Eugene,

The error is because there is insufficient space on hard disk.
To resolve this error follow the below steps:
1) Launch fusion
2) In the Fusion menu bar, Click 'Window' > 'Virtual Machine Library'
3) Right Click 'Boot Camp', Select 'Library'
4) Click 'Import'
5) Enter the username and password, Click 'OK'
6) Click 'Import' to launch Import Assistance
7) After the launch is completed, newly created virtual machine is installed in Virtual Machine Library window
