VMWARE ESX 3 to Physical
A little emergency here - I have a ESX server that is refusing to boot because the license expired. There are many other solutions and I do not wish to renew - but I need stuff from that machine. Also - can I upgrade to the free version? What are my options?

You would have to convert/move them 1st using vCenter Converter Standalone:

Is this a free software?
Converter Standalone is a free download, but you need to have an account on vmware.com (which is free, too.) http://downloads.vmware.com/d/info/datacenter_downloads/vmware_vcenter_converter_standalone/4_0
