How do you Install and configure the P2V posted: Dec 25, 2008 6:09 PM

I have installed the P2V in a workstation and connected to the Server to create virtual machine from it. I have not been able to get past the part that asks for a network drive to save to. I have created a share on the server, but this does not seem to be sufficient. Can someone advise?

I'm guessing "the P2V" is in fact vMware converter :-)

If I'm reading it right though, you are creating a share on the server you are trying to convert to a virtual machine ... Logic tells me this will not work all that well ;-)


Create the share on the workstation where converter is installed and point the conversion to this share ... That should work.
