[<CommonParameters>]Description
The New-SCV2V cmdlet converts a virtual machine created on a VMware ESX Server host. This cmdlet converts to a virtual machine to one deployed on a Hyper-V host that Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) manages. You cannot specify a VMware ESX host as the destination host for the new virtual machine.
A virtual-to-virtual machine (V2V) conversion requires that the host for the new virtual machine is a Hyper-V host.
The source for a V2V conversion of a VMware virtual machine is a set of files in the VMM library. Store the following files in the VMM library:
- A .vmx file. A .vmk file is a VMware virtual machine configuration file. A .vmx file is similar in function to the virtual machine configuration (.vmc) file that Hyper-V hosted virtual machines use. A .vmx file is a text file that describes the properties and structure of a virtual machine that include name, memory, disk assignments, and network parameters.
- One or more .vmdk files. A .vmdk file is a VMware virtual hard disk file. A .vmdk file is similar to the virtual hard disk (.vhd) file that Hyper-V hosted virtual machines use. A .vmdk file contains the guest operating system, applications, and data. The current cmdlet identifies these files from the .vmx file.
Supported VMware virtual hard disk formats include the following:
- monolithicSparse
- monolithicFlat
- vmfs
- twoGbMaxExtentSparse
- twoGbMaxExtentFlat
During the conversion process, this cmdlet converts the .vmdk files to .vhd files. This cmdlet makes the operating system on the new virtual machine compatible with Hyper-V. The virtual machine that this cmdlet creates matches VMware virtual machine properties unless these settings are explicitly overridden. These properties include name, description, memory, and disk-to-bus assignment. By default, the conversion process does not preserve network adapter settings. You can explicitly set adapter settings on the target virtual machine.
This cmdlet supports the conversion of VMware virtual machines that are running any of the following guest operating systems:
- Microsoft Windows 2000 Server with Service Pack 4 (SP4) or later versions
- Windows Server 2003 SP1 or later versions
- Windows Server 2003 R2 or later versions
- Windows Server 2008 or later versions
- Windows XP SP1 or later versions
- Windows Vista
Some conversions of a VMware-based virtual machine whose guest operating system is Windows might require that you add system files and drivers to the internal cache. You can use the Add-SCPatch cmdlet to add the required files to the cache. To determine what updates you must add, run New-SCV2V to attempt to convert the .vmdk file to a .vhd file. If you need updates, this process puts the V2V conversion into a failed state. You can review a list of required updates. Next, use Add-SCPatch to add the updates to the internal cache, and then restart the failed V2V job. The V2V process continues, so that you do not have to redo the disk conversion.
If you convert a VMware-based virtual machine that runs any other operating system, the virtual machine might not start or might not function correctly. To guarantee a successful conversion, you must first modify the guest operating system to one of the supported operating systems.
For more information about how VMM converts .vmdk files directly, type Get-Help Copy-SCVirtualHardDisk.
For more information about how to add required files to the internal cache, type Get-Help Add-SCPatch.
Examples
Example 1: Convert a VMware-based virtual machine on an ESX host
PS C:\> $ESXHost = Get-SCVMHost -ComputerName "ESXHost01"
PS C:\> $VMHost = Get-SCVMHost -ComputerName "HyperVHost01.Contoso.com"
PS C:\> $VM = Get-SCVirtualMachine -VMHost $ESXHost -Name "SourceVM"
PS C:\> New-SCV2V -VM $VM -VMHost $VMHost -Name "DestinationVM" -Path "C:\VMs" -MemoryMB 512 -RunAsynchronouslyThe first command gets the host named ESXHost01, and then stores that object in the $ESXHost variable.
The second command gets the host named HyperVHost01 in the Contoso.com domain, and then stores that object in the $VMHost variable.
The third command gets the virtual machine named SourceVM on ESXHost01, and then stores that object in the $VM variable.
In the last command**, New-SCV2V** performs the following operations:
- Creates a Windows-based virtual machine named DestinationVM from the source VMware virtual machine named SourceVM. The command deploys the new virtual machine, now named DestinationVM, onto HyperVHost01. It stores the virtual machine files in the folder C:\VMs on HyperVHost01.
- Assigns 512 MB of memory on HyperVHost01 for use by the new virtual machine.
- Specifies the -RunAsynchronously parameter to return control to the command shell immediately, before the command finishes.
The command converts all of the virtual disks on the source virtual machine and attaches them to the new virtual machine.
Example 2: Convert a VMware-based virtual machine stored in the VMM library
PS C:\> $LibServ = Get-SCLibraryServer -ComputerName "LibServer02.Contoso.com"
PS C:\> $VMHost = Get-SCVMHost -ComputerName "VirtualServerHost02.Contoso.com"
PS C:\> New-SCV2V -LibraryServer $LibServ -VMXPath "\\LibServer02\MSSCVMMLibrary\VMware\VMSource.vmx" -VMHost $VMHost -Name "VM02" -Path "C:\VMs" -MemoryMB 512 -RunAsynchronouslyThe first command gets the library server named LibServer02, and then stores that object in the $LibServ variable.
The second command gets the host named VirtualServerHost02, and then stores that object in the $VMHost variable.
In the last command, New-SCV2V performs the following operations:
- Creates a Windows-based virtual machine named VM02 from the source VMware file, VMSource.vmx, stored at the specified path on FileServer02. The command then deploys the new virtual machine named VM02 onto VirtualServerHost02. The command stores the virtual machine files in the folder C:\VMs on VirtualServerHost02.
- Assigns 512 MB of memory on VirtualServerHost02 for use by the new virtual machine.
- Specifies the RunAsynchronously parameter to return control to the command shell immediately, before the command finishes.
