1. create new VM
2. boot VM into Acronis LiveCD
3. restore image from a network location
4. power off VM
5. launch Converter and use "configure machine" option against the newly created VM
Ouch!
I was hoping somebody would say "yes our next beta convertor does it", download it here!
AFAIK Acronis support of 5beta version is the same as in 4.3
Is there a link or featured spec online somewhere?
Sorry to be pain but your first reply looks hard!
its not hard - it just sounds frightening
from the release notes:
Third-party backup images and virtual machines
forum for Converter 5beta: http://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/beta/public_converter_50?view=overview
Having a go now! Might ask some more later
Thanks for your help
Ta - all worked fine and not too scary!
