VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Migration Speed

Hi,

Currently I have a V2V migration from Hyper-V to VMware planned. I have tried and tested using VMware vCenter Converter Standalone, but I am getting very low transfer rate for A hyper V VM of following configuration:

1 Virtual CPU
Assigned Memory
4 GB
Assigned Disk
130 GB

I have already tried turning SSL, services and Antivirus off, yet the process does not speed up.

Kindly suggest me some mechanisms using which I can speed up the migration.

There are many factors affecting transfer speed, from the source host and its load, to the target host and its load.

What transfer speed you observe and why you think it is low?

Source Host is a Dell Blade Chassis with Hyper-V on it and a total of 12 VMs .

My destination host is HPE Simplivity DL 380 Gen 9 Nodes new installation.

Hi ranchuab​,

I have already tried the steps you suggested.

Could you suggest me the estimate time and best practices to migrate my file server of size 600GB from Hyper-V to VMware infrastructure.

Thanks,

Karan.
