Re: P2V of Physical server attached to SAN

I was doing P2V of SQL cluster with attached SAN last week.

I always received errors when I was trying to P2V server with SAN disks. What I did is the following.

1. P2V of local disks.
2. Cleanup after P2V, vmtools, uninstall HP software.
3. I created dummy vSwitch without uplink so OS doesn't complain about disconnected nic.
4. Copy of SAN data to another VM from same subnet to new disks.
5. I copied and attached disks with SAN content to P2V VM.
6. I changed disks signature so cluster resources could start.
