RHEL DNS/DHCP server P2V conversion


I have an HP server with RHEL 5.10 OS running VitalQIP DNS/DHCP application.  Will I need to reintall the VitalQIP and BIND applications on the VM or will the converter migrate application as well?

If you do a P2V using VMware vCenter Converter you will not need reinstall the applications on destination VM, everything will be copied during the P2V process, you will need only shutdown the old physical server before start the new virtual machine and set the same IP address for the virtual machine.
