Ecco una guida su come convertire una macchina virtuale da VmWare a Virtual PC/Virtual Server:

Dugie has more info in his blog entry "VMware to Microsoft Virtual Machine Conversions with VMDK2VHD". A snippet is below:

Anyway I've run through a conversion and it worked a treat. I used the 'Dugie-thumb-in-the-air' guide below:

  • 'Scrub' the VMware Image using the first half of thatvery fine guidefrom Chris Wolf over atSearchServerVirtualization.com
  • Use VMDK2VHD to convert the VMDK virtual disk to to a VHD
  • Create a new VMC with roughly the same hardware (IDE drives, etc, etc) in Virtual PC 2007
  • Attach your newly created and converted VHD
  • Power up you new VMC, login and wait (a few minutes) for *all* the new hardware to be detected
  • I clicked cancel to the new hardware driver wizard
  • I also clicked no to the reboot - hey livin on the edge here
  • Install the Virtual Machine additions (v13.724)
  • Reboot
  • Let the hardware wizard run
  • Tada!
