View ArticleSysprep for P2v
I going to perform a P2V of a Windows 2003 Standard VM. Will I still need to sysprep it? If so, where do I obtain the Sysprep cab files. We normally create new servers using MDT.

That is weird, since right on the start up screen it says that it supports .spf files -- not sure if it supports spanned spf files -- who would know for sure?

You will only need to sysprep the machine if you want the original machine to remain online after the new VM has been created which is typically not the case. If you do want to sysprep it you can get...

The VMware converter should be your way to go, as Veeam doesn't provide cross hypervisor migration tool. However, once the migration process is finished, you will need to backup migrated VMs, and this...

I have a physical Windows 2003 server that we'd like to P2v but the C drive only has about 100mb remaining. The D drive has 25GB. My preference is to install Converster onto this server and run it...

With only 100MB left, I'd strongly recommend you free up some disk space prior to doing anything else to avoid issues (not only related to the converter). What I have done in the past in such...

You can't converter machine with such small free space - you'll need much more space for VSS. Cleanup the disk before conversion; installing Converter in different place is not a problem.HTH
