When I bought my Macbook Pro I used VMware Converter to take my old Dell and create an image to load in Fusion. The VMware vCenter Converter is a tool that allows you to automate and simplify conversion between virtual machine formats, as well as convert a physical machine to a guest VM.
It isn't hard at all, it is just annoying.įortunately for me, VMware gave me an option that was anything but annoying. The build process for getting Cisco UC apps running on Windows systems is annoying. In particular, I didn't want to rebuild the Windows Server 2003 guest I was using for UCCX. There were a few guest VMs running on Server 2.0 that I didn't want to rebuild. About a month ago I decided I wanted to rebuild my CCIE-V lab. While I do run most of my VMs in ESXi on a Cisco UCS C200 I have also been using VMware Server 2.0 to host guest VMs (can we say 'lazy').
