This ISN’T something that occurs frequently, but it is something that I would want to test in HA (High Availabilty) before I went to production!
Vmware Convertor allows us to P2V (Physical to Virtual) migrations. That is, taking (potentially) a running machine on my network and importing it directly into my virtual infrastructure.
As we all know, it’s a 440BX based mother board being fed into our virtual machines. The advantage? It’s sooooooooo generic that every operation system should be able to recognise and use it.
Has that changed in vSphere (ESX 4)?
