I just need to make sure I understand something. I need to move a VMware esxi 5.5 virtual machine to another server. I am trying to do it with minimal downtime and lost of information. I am trying to run the converter hot as a local machine conversion to the new server. The problem is that the conversion takes about 10hrs. I don't want to loose that much data. I noticed there is an option to Synchronize changes immediately after cloning. This only takes about 5 minutes. I am assuming that this is just copying the changes since the conversion started (10 hours worth). Is this accurate? If so, I would only risk loosing 5 minutes, not 10 hrs. Any help or explanation would be appreciated.
