Migrating most of those machines was relatively easy : I booted the virtual machine using the VMWare convertor cd and used the convertor to move that virtual machine to ESX. However, this technique did not work for my Longhorn beta 3 server. That machine was created as a &quot;Vista (experimental)&quot;, and apparently the vmware convertor doesn't recognize it (yet). Result : the vmware convertor died with a &quot;Unable to determine Guest OS&quot; error message. <\/p>\n<p>I used the following technique to move the vmdk files to ESX manually : <\/p>\n<p>First of all, Download FastSCP from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.veeam.com\/veeam_fast_scp.asp\">http:\/\/www.veeam.com\/veeam_fast_scp.asp<\/a> and install it (in my case, I installed it on my Windows XP machine) <\/p>\n<p>Next, I set up a connecting to the esx server using FastSCP. Navigate to \/vmfs\/volumes\/&lt;id&gt; and create a new folder. I created a folder called &quot;hercules&quot; <\/p>\n<p>The virtual machine I want to migrate is called &quot;Hercules&quot; and contains of a couple of files : <\/p>\n<p>&#160;<a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/09\/091107-1722-movingvmwar1.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"201\" alt=\"091107_1722_MovingVMWar1\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/09\/091107-1722-movingvmwar1-thumb.png\" width=\"461\" \/><\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Select the two vmdk files (Hercules.vmdk and Hercules-flat.vmdk) and use FastSCP to copy them the esx server, in the newly created folder.
