<div>
It's stating that your destination device does not support UEFI BOOT.
</div>


<div>
How to resolve this is this mean that I need to disable bios?
</div>


<div>
Is the source using UEFI BOOT ?
</div>


<div>
So your &nbsp;VM may need also UEFI, and your hosts may also need to support UEFI.<br />
<br />
Also there have been issues with hosts in EVC mode.
</div>


<div>
Thanks <br />
<br />
You mean to disable on the desktop side ?
</div>


<div>
The VM must have UEFI options, and you may want to check your Hosts, support UEFI, and disable EVC which can cause an issue.
</div>


<div>
Thanks <br />
<br />
I converting from the desktop to vm machines using VMware converter, how to achieve this. <br />
<br />
How to enable Uefi option in vsphere client ?
</div>


<div>
Right Click the VM, Edit Settings, and enable UEFI BIOS option.
</div>


<div>
Do you have quick documentation or url link? <br />
<br />

<br />

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.

Network design and methodology, also known as network architecture, is the design of a communication network. It is a framework for the specification of a network's physical components and their functional organization and configuration, its operational principles and procedures, as well as data formats used in its operation. In telecommunication, the specification of a network architecture may also include a detailed description of products and services delivered via a communications network, as well as detailed rate and billing structures under which services are compensated.
