Convert VMWare VM's?

Is it possible to convert VMWare virtual machines for use by VPC?

 

Hi Mark,

I'm new here and I was also looking for VPC help but your question caught my
attention. A possible solution to migrating from VMware to VPC would be to
obtain the drivers for VPC's virtual hardware and install them into your
VMware's virtual machine. A backup could be made with Symantec's disk imaging
software or any other imaging software which gets the job done. To finalize
the migration you would then use the image to "restore" (install) the VM into
VPC. Make sure you go into system properties and control panel to reconfigure
any drivers and "hardware conflicts".

The above process is purely theoretical (spontaneous). I have not tested the
process so I'm not aware of the problems you may have and I would suggest
doing a backup if your information is of value to you. Hope this helps!

There is a Virtual Server migration kit which can help move a physical
server to a VM so I guess it should also work for a VMware VM to VPC
VM.

 

The biggest thing is to remove the VMWare Tools BEFORE you move the
VM.
