Converting VM from Hyper-V 2012 R2 to VMWare vSphere 5.5

Hello!

The sad fact is that VMWare vCenter Converter 5.5 is not supporting Hyper-V 2012 R2. Probably in new version this type of convertion will be supported.

If you want to convert VM from HV2012R2 to vSphere you have to use 3rd party apps like Starwind Converter or VirtualBox (vboxmanage.exe clonehd). You will convert vhd/vhdx to vmdk with those tools and you will be able to add this existing vHDD to new VM on vSphere.

 

Update: VMWare vCenter Converter 5.5.1 also does not support Hyper-V 2012 R2.
