vCenter

I have tried numerous times to use the standalone convter on a server 2003 machine and it always fails. (the problem it the one to do with vss error). I tried everything that I could find and it still doesnt work.

Is there a way for me to convert the machine on boot via a boot disc or something like that?

Thanks

Hi,

Try to do cold clone using VMware converter boot CD
