Virtual PC VHD to VMWare ESX Server
Posted on 2007-11-16
I created a MS Virtual PC vhd image for my customer who is running VMWare ESX Server. My customer is telling me there is a problem with converting my VPC image file to a compatible VMWare image.
Isn't there a straightforward way to do this? I was thinking that the conversion was supported natively by VMWare ESX server (although I've never used it). VMWare Workstation which reads my VHD images just fine.. is ESX Server that different?
Whats the recommended migration strategy experts?
