Hi
I have been given these files from VM:
- ProjectName ProjectName VM.vmxf
- ProjectName ProjectName VM-0.vmdk
- ProjectName ProjectName VM-0-000002.vmdk
- ProjectName ProjectName VM-000002.vmdk
- ProjectName ProjectName VM-Snapshot12.vmsn
- vmware.log
- vmware-0.log
- vmware-1.log
- vmware-2.log
- vmware-vmx.dmp
- vmware-vmx-0.dmp
- vprintproxy.log
- vprintproxy-0.log
- vprintproxy-1.log
- vprintproxy-2.log
- caches (folder)
- ExtData (E) - Verknüpfung.lnk
- ProjectName ProjectName VM.nvram
- ProjectName ProjectName VM.vmdk
- ProjectName ProjectName VM.vmsd
- ProjectName ProjectName VM.vmx
I need to restore these VM to HyperV.
What I have done:
I have used an open source tool VmdkConvert which converted VMDK file into VHD File.
Then restored VHD this file successfully to Hyper-V.
Issues:
When I restore VHD File, it only showed C Drive. Not E Drive. When VMWorkStation Playe used to open VMDK File, it showed C and E drives both.
Where I am missing.
Thanks!!
