Hi,

We use BX on vmware and have successfully converted many P2V servers.

You can use the vmware standalone converter, which can be downloaded from the vmware.com website, but you must ensure that root can login to SSH on the source machine - this can be set through the GUI.

For the best results we have found CMU to be the best. There are a lot of threads on CMU and how to use it. This method works best for us everytime.

We are currently in the process of moving to 5107/8, which we will accomplish using the CMU method above.

Happy to discuss further.

Kind regards,

Hi Tony,

Has anyone made a description of how to move a bx server to a vmware vps?
Maybe there are some VMware tools that can "rip off" a real server and turn it
into a VM. If so, I'm not aware of them. This might be a question for some
that are more familliar with VMware.

Other than that CMU is of course always an option.
