Migrate off other product to VMWare. p2v Linux and Windows (solaris x86) fails

$

I'm an individual user running Parallels VM hypervisor on Windows and Linux hosts.

I have an educational development system built on these VMs. git, svn, rtc, jenkins,...

 

I need to port the VMs to VMWare.. player is fine.  

 

the converter doesn't understand the format of my Parallels 6 pvs files (I guess it must be assuming Mac format)

 

I have been unable to get the 2 windows (xp and 7pro) off using the remote.. unable to connect to machine_ip\ADMIN$

they are not in a domain, just a local workgroup.   none of the fixes work.(edit the registry, restart vss, etc) very simple systems.  no office stuff installed,

but I want to keep the exact config.

 

the linux ones I can connect to, but they want to convert to some vmware infrastructure product format..

no idea which one works for a single user educational user.  don't need ESX.. systems are running some OS already.

one running Ubuntu 12.04 64bit (8gig ram, max, 1 terabyte disk), other running Windows 7 pro 64bit. (32gig ram, max, 6 terabyte disk)

the Ubunto 12.04 system has the parallels app with almost all the VM's running all the time.

 

the linux vms are

fedora 10(32 bit), 14(64bit), 17(64 bit),

ubuntu 12.04 both 32 & 64bit

redhat ?? 2.6.9-34 kernel.

solaris 10.1 x86
